No offense to anyone here at AZB, but this is a matter between 2 players and the WPBA Board and staff. There is not a single person who has posted in this thread that was an eyewitness to what occurred...so being presumptive based on personal opinion is not fair.
If/when it is determined that ANY player of the WPBA has been physically aggressive toward another player/fan/staff member....then our guidelines call for immediate suspension with the length of time being determined by the severity of the crime.
This post is not an attempt to sweep anything under the rug. It is simply a request to allow the WPBA to handle internal affairs internally...and to not crucify someone in public without all the facts.
As for the fact that some of our board members are accused of being fair and open-minded...I do not think that is unfortunate at all. As a matter of fact....if I was on trial in the court of public opinion, I would definitely want people who are fair and open-minded deciding my fate. I wouldn't want people who had already decided my guilt based on previous experiences and their personal dislike for me.
I am sure that once this is completely settled, some little birdie will come on here and let everyone know happens. Until then, I respectfully request that people let this particular topic die.
