The other thing that bugs me about this sorry saga is that last I knew, there was a little visit every now and then from a friendly FBI agent-in-charge and others with a list of places and people to avoid. Not only were you to avoid them, but contact with these places and people led to instant termination.
These little visits come in some (but not all, apparently) college and professional officiating organizations/conferences. either the NBA doesn't participate in this practice or doesn't take it seriously.
And here I thought the NFL was the one that was fixed...but then again, maybe that is why they changed the name a few years ago to NBA Entertainment -- kinda like World Wrestling Entertainment. Perhaps the NBA should bring in Vince McMahon to clean up its image.
