I realize many people are happy about today's events. That's not the issue.

The condition of (some portions at least) our athletic department is not the fault of a single individual, nor has it occurred solely in the very recent time period Greenspan has been in charge. The fact that he is in charge, means that he is the one who answers for the condition if there isn't perceived improvement in a reasonable period of time. As a result, he no longer has a job.

That's also not the issue.

The issue is whether a person's dislike of someone gives them the right to make insulting, disparaging remarks that are extreme, over the top hyperbole at best, and at worst are meritless, character assassinations.

I know we have freedom of speech. But when someone misuses it, they can be called out for it.
