Sherk did the time. If Kerr had never admitted it and done the right thing, people wouldn't be making these comments because they'd had no definite ammo or **** to sling at him. People don't make them about the others in the business who are on or highly suspected about juicing. Also, funny to me is that nobody seems to pop these shots on Tim Sylvia...or has everyone forgot that he was stripped of his title, the first time he held it, for using roids? Y'all need to grow up and give people credit for doing the right thing or at least the benefit of the doubt that they are going/have changed. Like I said, everyone's done wrong in their lives so don't y'all sit here and pat yourselves on the back because their names are in the limelight and your's are not.

Nah. Sherk deserves what he's getting from everybody. The problem with doing something wrong is that there are ALWAYS consequences. There has to be. Or else why would anyone refrain from doing them? It doesn't matter if Sherk came clean. The ridicule and finger pointing he's getting is part of the consequence for cheating. It is part of the punishment.
As far as being in the limelight, they (the ufc fighter, actors, athletes, politicians...) chose to be in it. It would be naive of them to think the hammer won't come down hard on them when they do something wrong. That is the price they pay for being in the limelight. The celebrities get fame and fortune when things go right...or they get the hammer when things go wrong. That is the way it is.
Now back to Sherk:
I hope BJ Penn kicks his cheating azz.
