Typically...a sentence is handed down by a judge, or some sort of judicial unit.

Would Giambi be the unidentified player from Oakland since they recently called him back?

Thanks for the law lesson dickmunch. Apparently you think I thought people on a message baord got to decide what Tejada's punishment would be.

Anyone think he'll have to serve time?

I doubt he would serve any time under normal circumstances, but in this case, they may use him as "an example" to send the message that lying to congress under oath isn't something to take lightly.

He actually wasn't under oath. He simply lied to congressional investigators. I think it would probably be akin to lying to a police officer or detective really. It's illegal, but not as bad as lying under oath.

Welcome to the board though!

Ah, didn't realize that. In that case, then no, I doubt he would do time, there isn't much to make an example out of here.
