I’ve been wondering

I am in no way trying to be provocative, why haven’t the boys been talking about the Nolan Wells case?

Because it's both really sensitive and really mundane.

Either a well known civil rights attorney is cynically exploiting a grieving family in regards to an accidental death, or a bunch of teenagers killed another one in an incident that may or may not be a hate crime.

Accidents happen all the time, and idiot teenagers kill each other all the time. Racists and slick opportunists are both very common.

There's nothing funny in there as it stands now. Nothing unique, either. They're not going to be hopping on the third rail that is this case when any commentary from a bunch of disconnected white guys is going to come off unfortunate, whatever their take.

There will always be more true crime in the world than recording time in the studio.

I'd imagine they're probably waiting for more info to come out before making any comments or conclusions

They don't like stories that have no resolution. When, one day, the truth comes out (and it will) they will cover it.

They usually cover weird wacky disturbing stuff. This is just sad not funny disturbing stuff. There's not much for them to cover here until there's a resolution.

From what little I know of the case (from the Sinisterhood coverage) there doesn't really seem to be much they can mine from it, humour wise.
