I am assuming you read the article, but maybe you didn't read it


Anyhoo, people (I think on both sides of the issue) interpreted the author's tone as being a political one. As a result, it triggered some political responses and those responses triggered their own political responses. And so on and so on.....

From Will's perspective, I could see how something that may have been intended to have innocent discussions snowball into something else. Fair or not, right or wrong; there are some topics that can quickly go from being the Grassy Knoll at Lane Stadium to K2 before Bstreet can say "Jumpin' Jack Flash."
