A Fine - Give me a break
Let me start by saying I am a Yankee fan. What Clemens did was stupid. I don't think ejection was necessary. But who does Robinson really hurt with a $50,000 ?? Clemens - I don't think so. Clemens makes about 10 Million these days! Do the math. That's a .5% (.005) fine of his salary (forget endorsements and everything else). Calculate that against your salary and then remember how much more he makes.
THE FINE WAS A JOKE. Who benefits from the fine, where does that money go? To Robinson or others from the MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL offices. Better Hotels and 1st class flights... If MLB donates that money to charity, least then it could do some good!
