Respect the Game by Ryne Sandburg

Palmiero busted? USA Today and WFAN in New York are reporting that Rafael Palmeiro has been suspended for a drug policy violation. USA Today also reports that it was immediately appealed.
mlb.com just made an announcement of their own. Wow.

understood, however, each league can set it's own rules and govern themselves. If they want certain subatances out, so be it. Follow the rules or take your ball somewhere else

I believe the punishment for the offenders is too light. If you want to do away with illegal performance enhancing drug users, get rid of them the first time they are caught. No tolerance policy. Also, volfire, I hope if you are giving your 3 children anything from GNC, you have consulted an M.D. prior to doing so. Other than a multi-vitamin and 3 square meals a day, they would not need much else. (just playful insight, not an attack)

No Pono? Alexei Ponikarovsky, a RFA, who played extremely well along side Nik Antropov, has not been tendered a qualifying offer by the Toronto Maple Leafs. Jeff O'Neill got his wish to become blue and white foilage. With Roberts and Nieuwendyk becoming relatives of the puma, AlMo's hip-induced retirement, Ronnie Francis not capable of skating faster then 10 km/h, and Tie Domi wishing to become the royal guard of the house of Lemieux, the Leafs are a little thin up front. I'm hoping this is a 'you're too expensive, so let's sign you for cheaper' move.

I'm no hockey fan, but I just have to know...does anyone expect the NHL to really recover from this blunder?

Having seen so many go to the podium and drabble off meaningless rhetoric in the past, I was pleasantly surprised to hear someone say it like it is. Ryno was an excellent player his whole career, the team came first, no contract disputes, no pissing and moaning, I can't even remember if the guy ever was thrown from a game. If any professional athlete has EARNED my respect...it's Ryne Sandberg.

I'm slightly biased, I'm a Cubs fan
