You make the argument that the fan was somehow just as culpable as Hess because he was being an @$$hole. I disagree. Hess was the leader in this situation. The accountability is his alone.
To his credit, Hess accepted responsibility for his actions. He even gave up games in other conferences. Whether he was "highly encouraged" to do this or not doesn't matter to me. The fact is that he did it. I respect that.

I did not say or mean to imply the fan was culpable or expected to act in the same professional manner that Hess was. I just pointed out the fact that it takes an exceptional ass wipe to hurl insults at some one and then cry foul when that person responds with an insult.
