consequences, huh? like that bootleg move of picking up Willie Parker and stooping to the level of the idiots in the fantasy league when you were up against someone that was playing by the rules.....

Again, you miss the point....if my dog asked me to end his life and I saw he was suffering, I would...and I would accept any and all consequences for my action. If a person asked me...I would have to make a PERSONAL decision, how could I (or even you) know what I (or you) would do? I am opposed to the concept and would never take my own life, nor would I be so demanding of another to ask them to do so, but if I was placed in that situation by someone else...well, then the decision would be mine alone to make....therein lies my point, it would be MY responsibility not the government's...and, if I did do what was requested of me, I would do so against my beliefs and with the expectation that I would pay the consequences! Life is about decisions and the consequences of making them...and Willie Parker broke his leg immediately after I picked him up and placed him in my lineup so I paid the price of losing 20 + points that week...exactly what I deserved!
