— -- It's comical to see how the Ohio State is attempting to discipline J.T. Barrett -- who was arrested and cited with operating a vehicle while intoxicated Saturday -- in a way that doesn't impinge too much upon his time on the football field.

He was suspended for one game. Did that seem light? Doug Lesmerises in Cleveland puzzles over how an act like drunken driving, which kills an estimated 10,000 people a year, somehow gets a standard one-game suspension in college football, if there is any penalty at all.
