Here is how he described Harvey Updyke:
"
"The guy's an idiot," Finebaum quoted Barkley. "It's a finable offense. I'm not sure it's a jailable offense for the rest of the guy's life or for 10 or 20 years. Auburn is an amazing place, but we need to get over the tree thing."
Finebaum concluded that column by saying that sending Updyke to jail would be a mistake.
"Let's learn from Harvey Almorn Updyke Jr.'s mistake and allow this to be a teachable moment," he wrote. "I'm not suggesting President Obama invite Updyke and Gene Chizik to The White House for a beer summit.
"But throwing him in jail will only make some people feel better for a brief moment. I say enough of the attacks and the calls for jail time for vengeance to right the wrong. It is time to get past this human tragedy."
"
I wonder what ever could have caused him to use "third world" to describe Miami fans and program as opposed to Harvey Updyke.
