From the "article":

"Solidarity is always appreciated, but refs are supposed to exude a sense of impartiality. Though Lucky, Eades and Clinton weren't working an N.C. State game, they've contributed to a sense that all refs are against State. The action isn't as bad as the implication."

It has nothing to do with NC State and everything to do with supporting Hess but of course let's gin up some more controversy.

I believe NBA officials have done far more radical stunts in support of their brethren.

I believe they wore shirts inside out one game. I also believe they all wore shirts with #62, in reference to Michael Henderson.

Why would Hess decline to work the tournament for one of the elite conferences in the country?

Because he could work the Big East tourney instead.

Meanwhile, what good examples those two clowns are for their children. Would be neat to see them get tossed from an AAU game.
