[QUOTE="Ransom Stoddard, post: 1789245, member: 10336"] Keeping it out of the media doesn't mean there's no accountability or consequences. The old management adage "praise publicly, criticize privately" is extremely sound. There's no advantage to the conference in telling the fans that they addressed an issue with a particular ref or crew, because the next time it happens (because it will happen) those same fans are going to criticize the league that it didn't do enough. Don't get me wrong, I'm as angry and frustrated by that TD decision as most people, but personally I get no catharsis from knowing that a ref got suspended for it. [/QUOTE]
