Suspension is the only way he'll get rest on this team. He wouldn't be missed in tonite's loss. In fact Doc should seat all 4 starters if Pierce plays for most of the game. Chief Enforcer, Arbiter and Tamperer Stern should not mind at all. In fact play the starters minimally all season (half) and steal one from Stern & Company. Then fly the half season banner in the locker room, not up with the Vets.
