I think the fines were justified, perhaps even forfeiting the game could have been called for... but losing draft picks seems a bit harsh to me. I think they were trying to make an example of the Pats which adds to the distraction away from the Vick case. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence. |
