Being down 30, it was a pretty ridiculous comment. I usually don't pay attention to any fan comments, but this one really irritated me, it was so stupid and uncalled for. Is there a point, shy of the obvious, that you'll remove a fan for a stupid comment like this? Or ignore except for swearing?

Unless a fan makes a threat of violence against the officials or participants (bench personnel included) or comes out on the court, IGNORE IT! Then let Game Management handle it.
