In the video DJ crosses his arms to maintain his distance, then Offerman appears to bump him, then hits him. We don't know what was said, to me it looks like DJ is trying to do his job..correctly. I would go to war anyday with DJ. Offerman is just an idiot, unfortunately at DJ's expense.

No, I never met the fellow but, I am sure he is an excellent official and outstanding human being. As far as Offerman, a lifetime suspension for this scumbag was a light sentence. Criminal charges are more in line here.
Having said that, I still think for this incident , wisdom, could have been better applied.
