Alex Rodriguez playing poker with Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio sounds like a "Saturday Night Live" skit waiting to happen, but Major League Baseball apparently isn't laughing about allegations that the Yankees star participated in at least two illegal, underground poker games. Is this a big deal or a big overreaction?

• "There are a lot of people going 'ho hum' about this, when really you should not. Re-read the information: He was participating in ILLEGAL (important qualifier) gambling activities. We don't know yet for how long, or for how much each game (only 'high stakes'). We don't know how much he lost." -- SN commenter From Tusk Til Dawn
• "Why does baseball get to legislate on A-Rod's personal life? I'm not a huge fan of the guy, but a suspension/ban should not be on the table here. Why does the MLB front office get to control every aspect of the players' lives?" -- SN commenter Chippermt
