worst ever? this is nowhere close to players going into the stands and swinging at fans

That didn't bother me one bit. Nobody got anything in that exchange they didn't deserve.

I don't care either, but IMO, when we're talking about publc perception, it's worse than the gambling ref "scandal"

Depends on what the facts surrounding the officiating issue turn out to be. A lone, rogue official? Not the end of the world. Orchestrated conspiracy among multiple officials? Huge problem.

Agreed. Stern's been all over the news today calling this an isolated incident. If that's the case, this will die a very quick death.
