He’s joking. This has been discussed many times over the years. Even if it’s warranted a “T” in this case fixed nothing, and most likely will only make it worse.

I'm aware and I still wanted his take on the subject. He gave it and I'm happy with it.

On the contrary, the fan behavior is poor because people are not held accountable for their actions.
If the behavior is bad enough to warrant removal, ask yourself why the affiliated school/team shouldn't be penalized?
Sadly, the same people who moan about poor sportsmanship are the same ones unwilling to do something to address the problem.

Fair enough,

I'll remove the cancer and move on. For me that's addressed enough. In extreme cases parents have been banned from attending school functions. Problem fixed. If you want to start giving out T's as part of your solution great it's just not mine.

I don't moan. I'm not adverse to addressing unacceptable behavior from the crowd (as noted in an earlier post). I'm not T'ing up a team b/c some a-hole roots for them.
