The technical foul they mentioned in the article was rescinded the next morning.

Just to clarify, the T that was rescinded occurred over the weekend. It was not the T he was called for in the video.

What apology? I haven't seen one. All I've read is:

"What I said last night should not be taken literally. My actions were out of frustration during the heat of the game, period. The words expressed do NOT reflect my feelings towards the gay and lesbian communities and were NOT meant to offend anyone.”

There's no apology in that statement.
