The attorney that Dawn retained is very prominent and does not file things for frivolous nature.  Saying the fans were rude is one thing. Saying that an African American women promoted an atmosphere to have people spew racism and spitting on people is out of bounds.  Especially when no one viewed it on tape, no players on the actual team would say that it happened to them, nor would the coach verify those specific actions when pressed. That defames her character and since the commissioner did  not act, she did what she had to do.  Strange that given the suit, the commissioner finally levied the fine, because what the Mizz, AD did was in violation of a league rule and he refused to retract the statement.  I get it if you are a UConn fan and do not like Dawn but look at it this way.  If a the Tenn AD, not a fanbase,  goes publicly on air and accused Geno of cheating to get Maya Moore with no proof than sour grapes, he would be expected to be reprimanded because it would be baseless and serve to taint something Geno has built fair and square.  Heck Geno even stated that he felt the Mizz AD should be held accountable for irresponsible statements of that nature.
