So I've been thinking about this. You're spot on about the lynch mob. We all know that all too well. I've been thinking that there wasn't much of a lynch mob mentality before the press conference right? they didn't spin up into a full lather until AFTER the press conference. Obviously hind sight is 50/50, but I think if they would have given him like a full on 6 week suspension (practice and games) the media I THINK would have been much more silent about all of this. I think that if the stories are true about UM not wanting to take a suspension and essentially bullying everyone into this nonsense, he may have sealed his own fate. Just depends on how long the media keeps up the lather.
