Whatever the chance contributions that fell into the slow cauldron of their talk, they made the gruel thick and slab with dollars. Men were weighed by their dollars, measures were gauged by their dollars; life was auctioned, appraised, put up, and knocked down for its dollars.

The more of that worthless ballast, honor and fair-dealing, which any man cast overboard from the ship of his Good Nature and Good Intent, the more ample stowage-room he had for dollars. Make commerce one huge lie and mighty theft. Deface the banner of the nation for an idle rag; pollute it star by star; and cut out stripe by stripe as from the arm of a degraded soldier. Do anything for dollars! What is a flag to them!
  Charles Dickens

If I thought an internal sanction, a monetary sanction against them, would suffice or help, I'd do it in a New York second. My experience is it does not. If they are not remorseful on their own -- regardless of whether the league fines them a penny, or whether they fine them hundreds of thousands of dollars -- if they don't internalize the culpability, then we're no better than we were yesterday.
