Jesus and ESPN

Dana ("F*** Jesus!") Jacobson's drunken rant drew a wrist slap from ESPN-a one-week suspension. I believe most places of business would have fired her, no questions asked, just for her inebriated state at a company function. But I've never advocated that people lose their jobs for ill-chosen or politically incorrect remarks. A real apology would be nice, though. It's interesting that ESPN, which fired Rush Limbaugh over much less, apparently believes it is worse to impugn the motives of sportswriters than to insult Jesus Christ and his 2 billion followers worldwide.
