I checked Wikipedia for the hell of it and the listing is Beanie (seamed cap). Can't find anything about Judaism there.

Color me confused about the anger flying here.
Seems pretty obvious it was in reference to Probstein's religious headwear he usually wears. Seems pretty plain that he should be criticized on legitimate grounds (like the shilling and fake cards) and that this is not legitimate but clearly over the line and inappropriate. I'm see it's going to be spun and excused with a non-apology plea of ignorance, but it's quite a stretch to pretend it's not what it clearly was.
