yes, I thought the same thing too, a silver lining indeed for a such a 
dark cloud. My thinking is he will send someone to sports wholesale shop 
and buy a lots of weights to build a substantial home gym and then 
proceed to pump iron and get "stacked" and come back strong.
Could also be a good opportunity to get some surgery on his elbow, get 
the arthroscope in there for a "tidy up" and "tighten up" of the ligaments.

Man I wish I myself was about to get suspended for the rest of the year 
with nothing to do! must be nice!
The two real losers out of this are the NSK and the fans
