Do you believe that Karl Hess singled him out of the crowd out of unprovoked spite? Nobody thinks it was warranted, but tweeting out half of a conversation to get someone who makes a fraction of your monthly salary canned just looks petty to me.
No, but no articles are talking about a heated shouting match. It is being portrayed in the media as Hess making a racist comment and getting canned. If you think people are reading that, thinking through the fact that Mit might have said something first that deserved that response and are then going to take any action that in any way impacts Noble then I have a bridge to sell you.
Nelms is a small man (smaller figuratively than Donald is literally) who cannot bring himself to side with DR even if it means hanging one of his own out to dry.I am legitimately stunned TheReff hasn't shown up on this issue yet.
And so it goes...
D'oh! Missed the obvious.
You're missing the point with semantics. You were arguing that Mit looked foolish and his board would be pissed (and from your tone, arguably justifiably so). That isn't the case as no one is thinking through it that far. They are thinking Hess made a racist comment to a fan. Period.
ETA: The odds anyone is even reading this and taking the time to link Mit to Noble is slim to none. The odds that anyone that did would in any way have an impact that the board would care about is non-existent.
Ruining his life? You're aware ACC refs have other full time careers, right?
Does jhmd just pick the dumbest side of an argument and latch on?

it would appear so
You're saying people who are wealthy and powerful should show humanity toward the less fortunate when they've made mistakes?
You don't think Karl Hess enjoys officiating college basketball games? I'm just saying this was a small time move for a big time guy like Mit.
But he said something you don't like, so screw everything about him, right?
