If they fired anyone over the protests there would be a HUGE protest by the NBRA.
The officials had to do something publicly to gain attention to the matter. When Shaq gets suspended (rightfully so) for one game for saying MF and other stuff on live TV every SportsCenter and other sports program is talking about it. When an official gets a 3-day suspension for a single error in judgment no one cares -- the majority of fans would like to see all of us fired.
