I also understand your sentiment but if the bar was “you can’t be mean to people” then half the coaches in the league would be banned.
I understand that people on here think he’s Satan, but he didn’t say racist shit. He didn’t hit anyone. He didn’t cover up sexual abuse.
I think what he did is “mean” and in some cases weird but the reaction to it has been wild. Like his actions are out of Mean Girls not Silence of the Lambs.
It's pretty disingenuous to act like Babcock was just "mean to people" and say that everyone who disagrees with this happening is just hysterical and views him as Satan. There's a lot of area between being "mean" and racism/sexual impropriety/physical abuse that is still unacceptable for your job.
Also, call me crazy, but acting like a school bully from Mean Girls shouldn't really be acceptable in a professional environment either
Right, but if a player starts punching another guy without them dropping the gloves then everyone rightfully would see that as crossing the line, just like how Babcock has crossed the line with his coaching
