Talk:Delmon Young Suspended 50 Games/@comment-93324-20060509162928

He shouldn&quot;t have gotten any punishment! For years, hitters have been taking bad calls like that; he was mad as hell and wasn&quot;t taking it anymore! Way to show those umps who&quot;s boss, Delmon!

Before everybody lynches me, I&quot;m only kidding. 50 games sounds about right, although abuse-of-official cases in other sports have garnered more lenient punishments -- remember Nick Van Exel&quot;s head-butting of a ref? He only got a seven-game suspension! Still, what Young did was inexcusable. As the top prospect in all of baseball, tou&quot;d think he would have enough sense not to damage his future earnings potential over a meaningless called third strike in a minor league game. In my mind, this rasies serious questions about his makeup.
