Sure, there are some zero tolerance rules that are stupid and are carried to an extreme. However, these lacrosse players knew full well that smoking was forbidden and was a condition of playing but they did it anyhow - and were dumb enough to be photographed. They deserve their punishment. They hurt themselves with the ban as well as their team mates.

They should have saved their victory cigars until after the lacrosse season had ended.

By the way, they were officially out of school for the year and that school for life.

We disagree and I guess certain views aren't particularly welcome here on TOTV.

Zero tolerance rules without common sense ARE stupid. Ask the 6 year old who was suspended for shaping a sandwich into the shape of a gun.
