Integrity is SO HUGE. I'm not knocking either man. Sammy seems to have made a bone-headed mistake, and while 8 games might seem long (I was expecting half that), you just don't know how intentional this thing was. As for Blair, he's dealing with his own mistakes. It seems like he's putting the blame on "[his] own demons," but at least he's taking the heat and seems sincere in wishing it hadn't effected the careers of others.

Integrity should be such an emphasis in our culture that relies on truth and information........ Too bad it's not all that.
