Postgame ruckus — "Get the ###### off!" — Bickering Bills II?

Yep. It still didn't sound like a reporter going live to me, though.

That's fine. Your choice. But we don't have anything else to go on, and we KNOW our media would report "locker room turmoil" if they witnessed it. They're not under gag orders, most of them don't have any special privileges with the team that they could lose, sooo... Where's deep throat with the scoop?

It's never the crime, it's always the coverup. Remember that. And follow the money. Do you know how much a good bottle of Scotch costs? What about an edible arrangement from Mighty Taco?

 

(GoDD would have nailed that better than I did. I couldn't make it naughty enough. Consider it an homage.)

The argument here seems to be that the media would have reported on other media doing something weird, but that they wouldn't report on the players doing something weird because coverup? That doesn't square. Our media would report on any little nugget of Sabres turmoil they could get their paws on just to make themselves relevant. They're vultures. So it's very obvious there's nothing to see here except that something inconsequential happened in the background.

 

This is what strains my ability to even entertain that there's anything here.

 

If the media had indications that the ruckus were from the Sabres locker room, they would be all over it. All. Over. It. They would be racing each other to post hot takes on the subject. Those folks practically subsist on the slightest hint of human misery

 

And yet every member of the media who's been asked to speak, and has spoken, to the noise/sound has come back with mundane, boring explanations.

 

There's no cover up. There's no scotch. There's no Mighty Taco pu pu platter.

Of course. Of course! Damn it.

They do have all those metal trash cans in the middle of the locker room you always see in between periods. Maybe someone picked one up and chucked it. Coulda been Bogo, when he gets pissed he loses his ######.

Plausible.

If they had any clue this thread existed they would have ran with it.

Especially PHam, he loves poking players in the eye to make himself feel important.
