    Frying is a bit extreme. Probably cruel and unusual punishment.

    It depends on the seasoning and the oil.

    I recommend some smokey paprika and peanut oil.

    that brings up a question I don't have the answer too

    is a tweet the same as a report or an article? Same standards for details?

    Sorry but I think the team is using this as an excuse to get rid of him.

    If this was REALLY going on for 10 years, you can't tell me it's only now coming to light. I think the team started out shitty, I think Neil has dug in his heels about the roster, and now Jody/Vulcan are using an ace up their sleeve to get rid of him without paying the rest of his salary. Force him to resign or fire him for violating a morality clause.

    Branch is an AWESOME guy. Just saw him a few days ago walking his dog. Started our career in Charlotte working for Twardzik

    Of course not... but people's definitions of "abuse" can differ. What one person sees as abuse, another might view as simply an obstacle to overcome, and might consequently view those unwilling to overcome said obstacles as lacking toughness.

    Who's to say whose perception/reality is more or less valid than the other?

    I think this happens quickly. Would not be surprised if within the week. Not sure how it possibly ends up “we looked around and he’s fine” and everyone just goes back to work in the facility. No chance.

    I don’t think so. Unless Jody is an actual evil person, she’s not going to not only fire him, but send him, his kids (and wife) out of town ruining their fathers reputation and likely NBA career by making up this type of excuse.
