Well, it looks like Beast is right on this one. Here is Ha-Ha's response to the Capers kerfuffle:

Source here  and here .

From the beginning, this really looked like people reading into something that wasn't there. I have no reason to doubt Ha-Ha's clarification on this matter.

The way I see it is: a) hes a complete idiot and just tried to say something witty/different but made himself look like a bigger idiot or b) there is a subliminal dis where he and Shields have both been unhappy with Capers/defensive direction.
