I know the idea behind suspensions--whomever gives them and wherever the recipient may be--is to teach the culprit a lesson and punish him or her for acting a fool. Professional sports leagues like to use them, but it seldom appears that the suspended player actually learns anything.
Such is the case with Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo. Recently suspended for a pair of games for his role in the fight during the Celtics/Nets game, he spent his time off in Mexico while his team was busy playing.
In the first vid you can see that he really didn't get the point behind the suspension. It's cool that he has his teammates backs, but in sports for some crazy reason too many guys don't realize the harm they do in these brawls is more than any punch that is actually thrown.
The link will take you to a video of Rondo and his time in Mexico.
Below is a clip of the brawl that got him suspended in the first place.
