I think he is referring to the fact that it has been said that ESPN is not allowing any anti-hambone signs and I remember seeing a quick glimpse of a sign that said something like “Here in New York we call it a four bagger” just once during a pan shot of the crowd- Didn’t see the sign again after that.

I remember getting a glance at that sign, just a glance and didn't get to read the whole thing.

I saw the sign also and I think they even commneted that not everyone was a fan of the "hambone". I didn't see any other sign that was censored.
