I don’t care if he was 21. If he didn’t know right from wrong when he saw it, he never deserved the letter in the first place.
I don’t want to throw too much shade at young players (Captain or not) for not speaking up. Basically the same age as Beach and just as susceptible to the manipulation of the brass. Not coming forward now is a different story.

There were a lot of veterans and adults around that could have made the right choice. It shouldn’t come down to a 21 year old employee.
