After watching the "punch" from two angles many times I'd say Stern should be suspended. There was no power in the gesture and it appears more likely he was trying to get his hand into the ball. He had a right to be upset since Finley was sitting on his head and that appeared to be purposeful. At the worst a fine was all that should be levied. Commisioner Stern has been watching W Bush and Cheney too much.

Race has little or nothing to do with this. There are fast Blacks, Whites, Reds, Yellows, etc. The reason you find more minorities in sports is it's there best way out of their economic situation. In other words there are more poor minorities and sports is the best(or at least most legal) way they can escape their situation. Every race has it's intelligent members and dummies. The problems minorities have is the ones that make the 6 o'clock news are the ones people tend to equate with their race. For all the capacity the human race has for intelligent output why do we always seem to choose the dummest ones? If we would not jump to assumptions, pride ourselves on education, and give others the same consideration we give ourselves this would be a much better and longer lasting world. Have a nice day you'all.
