I saw the story on TV this morning. The article was interesting too. It's unclear where the suspension came from. I'm wondering if it came from Ronnie Nunn or from the administrative side of the league office (in other words, the same guy who hands out suspensions to players for fighting, etc.).
The most disturbing part of the article is the accusation that Nunn personally threatened to fire two officials if they participated in the protest. After meeting Ronnie this summer, I find that really hard to believe. He is a straight-talker, no question; but that kind of conduct doesn't seem like the guy I met, albeit briefly. The suspension seems excessive to me, unless there are other circumstances that we don't know about. The protest does not seem unreasonable to me. Not a good situation. Especially since the officials are in the last year of their collective bargaining agreement.
