I don't think BC had a good reputation to begin with and this could very much be the last straw. It doesn't matter if someone points the finger at you, but it does matter than no one is quick to defend you. I don't see a lot of defending out there for him.

Pretty sad if his father is fighting his battles at age 50.

I remember when my buddy who works at Teachers told me that BC front office was super paranoid and sensitive about the media and would strong-arm media outlets in Toronto through back channels. I wasn't sure what to make of it cause it was second hand information but a lot of the stuff he told me about how weird the front office was during that time makes more sense now....
I wonder if we'll start seeing Toronto media guys come out with stories now.

To me the smoking gun that hasn't been talked about enough is this:
"On Tuesday, May 22, I emailed the Sixers and shared the names of two of the accounts, phila1234567 and Eric jr (I did not disclose our suspicions about the other three accounts, one of which, Still Balling, had been active earlier that day; I did this to see whether the partial disclosure would trigger any changes to the other accounts). On a follow-up call that day, Philadelphia’s media representative told me that he would ask Colangelo whether he had any information about the two accounts.
That afternoon, within hours of the call, all three of the accounts I hadn’t discussed with the team switched from public to private, effectively taking them offline—including one (HonestAbe) that hadn’t been active since December. "
I think you can really only conclude 4 things from this:
1. Complete coincidence (Seems VERY unlikely)
2. The "anonymous source" is also in contact with the person or people running the other 3 accounts, and as soon as the 76ers were contacted they were told to switch the accounts to private to build further suspicion
3. Someone other than Brian Colangelo within the organization does indeed control these 3 burner accounts and found out about this and switched them to private
4. Same as 3, except it is indeed Brian Colangelo
I don't know guys, I just don't see 1 and 2. I can MAYBE see 3. But these are more than likely in my mind Brian Colangelo's accounts.That is a normal collar. Move on, find a new slant.

There was a mini-scandal in the Calgary legal community (at one of the major firms) a while back where a lawyer set up a fake twitter account in the name of one of his partners and posted jokes and stuff on it. It was all good natured fun and nothing bad was posted but there was some off-color stuff. Eventually, this got back to the partner and he effectively got the fake-account maker fired. Whole thing was bizarre.
