SMJHL Onion: Zema Suspension Announced

HO has finally ruled on inflammatory and incendiary statements made by @Zema , who has a S55 player named Alexander Oscarsson. His commentary was highly controversial, with many North Americans telling the Onion that they felt “personally attacked” by Zema’s words. The Maine Timber have done their best to mitigate the damage and distance themselves from the situation.

“We do not condone or support the kind of language that Zema used. The utter lack of cultural sensitivity and respect for others that he showed is not okay under any circumstances. We feel that the consequences of his actions were merited and that HO’s decision was appropriate for the severity of his offense,” said the Maine Timber in a media statement.

Screenshots were leaked in the thunderdome this week where Zema came out in support of ketchup on pasta, which prominent SHL members have called “blasphemy” and “anti-American hate speech.” When pressed on the issue, Zema doubled down, declaring that ketchup on lasagna was also delicious.

“This reminds me of PenKnight, how he doubled down on offensive rhetoric. This kind of attitude has no place in the 21st century, and it’s really disappointing to see a member that showed so much promise behaving in this manner. He is absolutely defiling his leftovers and everything that Italian food stands for. He cannot just be absolved of any wrong-doing by playing the Scandinavian card,” said Gabe Johnson @Gwdjohnson when asked for his thoughts.

After discussing the matter, SMJHL HO reached a verdict. While @BadWolf was an ardent supporter of an immediate perma-ban, other members of HO dissuaded her away from this stance. They insisted that no matter how repulsive and unacceptable the comments were, they could not allow their emotions to interfere. Precedent has to be followed, giving out a warning before throwing down the ban hammer; this logic was reiterated in the punishment thread. HO hopes this will justify not handing out a harsher punishment and pacify those calling for Zema’s head on a silver platter.

“This is also just a reminder to everyone to please be mindful of what you say, either on the forums or on SHL-related Discord servers. If you know it’s not in accordance with the SHL’s Conduct Policy on what language is and isn’t okay, whether joking or not, please be very aware of the affect certain language can have on others and the severity of our words,” wrote HO in the suspension thread.

The suspension will keep Oscarsson from dressing in the next three Timber games and site ban him for a week.
