This Is Some Bull****

Arbitrators reduce Kenny Rogers suspension to 13 games.

I don't believe for one second that Rogers learned his lesson.

When he turned himself in to the Arlington Police on misdemeanor assault charges, he was talking more shit to a cameraman filming the arrest.

20 games would be a long suspension for an everyday player and I would agree, excessive.

But as a starting pitcher, Rogers only pitches every 5th game. So in essence, a 20 game suspension means he sits out only 4 games.

Now he will miss only 2 starts, hardly a just penalty for such bad behavior.

Here's the deal, if you choose to be a pro athlete, an actor, a politician, anything that has you in the public eye, you are going to have photographers, and media around you all the time. If they are not around you, you probably won't have a career.

Rogers has been in the majors since 1989, he knows better!

This was a travesty of justice, plain and simple.
