Stern punishments

NBA commissioner David Stern suspended Ron Artest for the remainder of the season for inciting Friday's basket-brawl (In case you missed it, complete video). Good for the commish. Artest got exactly what he deserved. For better or worse, athletes have to be more responsible than fans. It's not fair, but that's life. And the moment Artest entered the stands, regardless of provocation, he crossed the line. So did Stephen Jackson. He should have been suspended for the rest of the season as well. Instead, he'll be out for 30 games. And I hope the Pistons go through the tape, and never let those bozo fans who tossed beer at the players buy tickets or enter the arena again. Then justice will be served.
