Just picked this off of Fox News.  Maybe the guy isn't a pushover . . .


Inmates: Bernard Madoff in Prison Scuffle and Wins

Tuesday, October 13, 2009
NYPOST.com

Bernie "The Bruiser" Madoff got into a prison-yard tussle with a fellow inmate over — of all things — the stock market, eyewitnesses told The New York Post.

And, by inmates' accounts, the 71-year-old Ponzi schemer came out the winner.

Madoff, serving 150 years at the Butner, N.C., federal prison, was heard last week getting into a heated debate over the state of the market with another senior-citizen jailbird.

The shouting match got so heated that the inmate pushed Madoff, who shoved back harder with both hands, causing his attacker to stumble.

As the attacker tried to stand up straight, Madoff hovered over him red-faced and glaring, eyewitnesses said.


The rest of it is here:

Madoff cut the guy a deal: take a dive so I can build prison cred and I'll help you with X.
