If Julian Tavarez deserved his suspension if he really had a foreign substance on his hat -- which is WAY more debateable than what KR did tonight.
I really have absolutely no idea why I brought up the "stealing signs" example. I was thinking of sign stealing with outside assistance (eg: a video camera or whatever). Horrendous example on my part.
I got home from work and started watching the tape. I went upstairs and the <franking> upstairs TV was on and I hear, "to this point Rogers has shut Pujols down, holding him 0-2 to this point."
So I had the first six innings spoiled for me which made me really mad.

Yes, outside assistance on sign stealing, if done by the Cards, would REALLY piss me off. I don't want my team to win by cheating.
