But when you risk the outrage 5000 fans (or 10,000? more?) because you can't control your emotions , then you really screwed up big time.
Had this happened in the barn in full view of the stewards and out of the PUBLIC eye, then there would have been no penalty whatsoever. Molina is a good guy.

so, the difference between the usual $250 fine and his punishment is due to poor timing? that's ridiculous. he should appeal, and he should win. whether it's one witness or one thousand, the 'crime' remains the same. so should the punishment.
