No Harm No Foul

As my grandkids would say, “Stern is a dork.” But I would say, “The only thing that is worse than a lawyer is a lawyer who is an administrator.” Everyone who passed the third grade can read the rules, but an administrator should evaluate the rules and justly apply them. His suspensions of Stoudemire and Diaw were equivalent to a fourth grade kangaroo court. He was trying to be objective, but he should not use objectivity when it doesn’t make sense. His referees are frequently subjective and know that an infraction is not always committed when no harm is done. Thus, no harm no foul.
