Not saying this about you, but many posters on this board took ML's side strictly from the view that with or without ML could be the difference between playoffs or not. And they want to make the playoffs. That's wrong. ML should get the typical treatment for this offense. Now what's typical though?
Reminds me of a guy here at work when OJ was charged with murder. "OJ couldn't have done it. He rushed for 2,000 yards one year!"
