Oh, Hasn’t the Man Been Punished Enough?

If you insist on finding space for Bill Plaschke’s columns, could you at least keep him off the Laker beat [Oct. 19]?

Laker coverage is my primary reason for reading The Times. Please let Mike Downey, Mark Heisler and Scott Howard-Cooper handle the Lakers.

Wait, I’ve got it! Have Plaschke cover the Clippers!
