Why would a franchise want to honour a player that has said disparaging things about it? Even after they gave him another shot to come back, he couldn't leave without a pot shot at someone that made the team (Conroy I think?).

Because they (hopefully), like us, know what he's been through. Just think about, a dude had sex with him when he was a kid. He didn't hit him, or say mean things to him. He literally put his penis in his but, night after night, and ruined his life. The fact that he's done what he's done is a god damn miracle.
So I guess most of us are able to see what an incredible talent he was and what an amazing case of perseverance his life has been, and look past his irrational outbursts and attitude problems, as we know here they come from.
If anything, his negative actions should be held accountable to Graham James, not Theo.
