I think the problem was that it was a stand up, and he called in fatigue for the entire crew. Theres the mentality that if you're about to a continuous duty overnight, you should have prepared your body for it.. and the inappropriateness of calling the rest of your crew in fatigued. If he was unfit for duty, he shouldve called in for himself (before the stand up started), but not everyone else.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he's back at Skywest and back on line, but what a ridiculous thing to do. And if it wasnt for TF going after this guy and a lawsuit involved, I doubt the FAA would have anything to do with this. TF is the one that should be fired..
