Sadly, we're not.
Profanity, name calling and perhaps from some few, even threats.
It's clear that Tomasse's career here is over. Whether he has a sportswriting jig anyplace else is also in question. Not just losing your job but blowing your career and its effect on your family is pretty severe. However, I will save my concern for the myriad others out there who through little fault of their own are at similar risk. Tommy Boy earned his reward.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck." RAH
