I don't think others will agree with me but I feel that words are too easy to type and post on a forum. If Craig really wants people to go, "wow, he's really sorry", or "wow, he was really a man about it", then he would give his GP earnings to Drew. My rationale is that Craig is admitting he did something he regrets and feels sorry about, and it was because of his actions that Drew was out of the top 8 where he would have earned a minimum of $1,000. I think people ought to be made to pay for their mistakes and a public letter saying sorry, to me, is just barely enough. I don't think a public apology is going to make people think he is less of a douche and I don't think people will think some words typed and posted on the internet is fair compensation for what happened. Drew, of course, also made a mistake; no one is denying that. But if we are talking about Craig and Craig's desire to not only salvage his repuation but also do the right thing, I think some kind of compensation is called for, and giving Drew Craig's GP earnings (much less than $1,000) is at least a step in the right direction.

I don't expect this to be a popular opinion or for anyone to agree, but there ya go. Words are too easy... put up or shut up.
