Karl Hess

Just wish that Hess was banished on merit, rather than because he engaged in banter with a fan.

The ACC will not miss Hess, but I am uncomfortable with how this went down.

Perhaps the ACC felt he proved himself to be a bit unstable by mixing it up with off-the-court parties one too many times?
 
Veteran ref Karl Hess confirmed to ESPN he has been notified that the ACC has fired him for his comments to a fan last week. Story coming.

I'm not uncomfortable with it at all. ACC told him to stop making it all about himself following the Gott T earlier this year and he chose not to do so and was fired. If my boss told me to stop doing something and two weeks later I did it again, I would be fired too.
 
As I mentioned without any response Hess tried to stomp on my foot sitting in the same seats, he got the person next to me me. I thought it was funny but clearly unprofessional. See ya
 
Good Riddance to Hess. He's been writing checks he can't cash for a while now.

On the other hand, Mitt is a pretty big beta pussy for talking shit to a ref, and then when he gets nuked, cries about it and posts to social media. Pretty RJ strategy there, but the result is good I guess.
 
So is Pitino gonna get punished for his "4 white guys and an Egyptian" comment?
 
So was Mit pro or anti-Bz? I need to know whose side I should take on this. I'm impressed that he was in Winston for a 8 pm Sun night game, though.

TAB and I agree here

I suspect he wouldn't get too far by calling one of the parties an Egyptian if they weren't in fact Egyptian.

Wait, he's not Egyptian?

I think even if he called him an "Indian ass" he'd have a problem. I realize that he may have intended it to be friendly banter, but it is generally a bad move in today's society to make reference to someone's ethnicity and add "ass" to the end of it. You can probably get away with "white ass" though. Thanks Obama.
