Sports Scandals
NCCAA: Reportedlly about to strip Memphis of it's 2008 wins (and championship appear) because Derick Rose had someone take the SAT for him. Penalty for Rose, who is now in the NBA? Basically nothing. Penalty for the school? Yup. Penalty for the kids in the program now (who had nothing to do with the "violation")? Probably, we'll find out. Penalty for Calipari? Further hit to his reputation?
Does any of that make sense?
Plaxico: Reportedly pled and agreed to two years in jail, after facing up to 3.5, I think. Does that seem like a lot to anyone else for the possession of a gun other than in connection with (another) crime? Granted, he lost control of his weapon and it discharge in a public place, which makes him particularly reckless.
