I am not arguing that Weaver is innocent or guilty. If you look at my earlier post, I don't believe he did throw the Series. The fact is that he knew about it and had discussed it with other players that did. That is why Landis kicked him out (to set a precedent) and not the other "clean" Sox. There were actually a handful of others that were cleaner than Weaver that received the punishment. It was Landis drawing a line in the sand.
