Personally I think the punishments should be very harsh. He should be kicked out of the game and maybe even lose any awards/honors he received while using steroids. I feel if they go lightly on this it will make players feel they have to use drugs that could damage their health to compete.

I believe, and I may be mistaken, but that it's more of a "Three strikes and you're punished" philosophy. It would depend on how many times he's tested positive. With the collective bargaining agreement, it can't even be made public until the 3rd offense (although I could be wrong about that as well).
Either way, I don't see any suspensions coming out of this.
