That press conference was pure comedy gold. Exact answers I was expecting, and I love how it drove the media insane.
Can anyone tell me how this will affect the team even if he is charged? Will they sell less tickets, probably not. Will fans stop cheering, maybe a select few, but the building will be full, and people will quickly forget this happened. If he is charged, he will be suspended until it's resolved one way or another and Hawk life will go on. Bringing him to camp really has no big negative affect.
It does set a bad precedent for future players if he is suspended, he hasn't been charged, so he is completely innocent of anything right now. No reason he shouldn't be there.
