Did they fire Maddy Glab for the Diggs thing?

I saw a screenshot of his social media reply. He was not having her apology. Shocker. He's an emotional and eccentric guy. I would not imagine that he'd laugh that off.

She seems like a diligent worker and an earnest person. So, in that way, I feel bad for her. On the other hand, though, that was just a horrendous idea and terrible judgment to talk like that about one of the team's superstars when there are microphones in the room.

Fwiw, I suspect that what she said is more true than not true.

Nah, internal punishment but not termination per Tim Graham.

Two questions:

1. Should I know what you are talking about?

2. Do I want to?

My only nitpick on the twitter breakdown is that she is a Bills employee…not a beat reporter in the traditional sense of a media member.

I think I've dealt with the average sports fan. It's not usually a good look. Can you imagine this board if the Sabres make the playoffs? It's already intolerable to the point that a good poster just stepped away.

I have zero issues with women reporters. Many are good but Glab is grating. Off the air for a while is welcome. 

Can't see how she returns with the bad pub. Players will never talk to her now.

He's been on and off the fence about leaving for a long time.  Hope he's back when the season starts.

It's the flak you get here for taking sensible positions in the questioning of "happy days are here again, the Cups are nigh."

Some of us challenge for a particular reason. Not to be negative but to see if the optimism passes the smell test. There are good hockey people here. To be honest the responses to my questioning for the most part make me think, hey, maybe we got something here. That's the value of it.

Are you in the right thread?

Passes the smell test? Since when are human mental attitudes like optimism or pessimism subject to arbitrary judgment criteria? And who establishes what the criteria is? You? Why? Because someone’s optimism simply rubs your pessimism the wrong way or vise versa? 

I think the Sabres will go 82-0 in the regular season and 16-0 in the playoffs to win their first cup. Gotta problem with that?

They should fire her and let Stefon know.  See, we ruined someone’s life.  Satisfied? (I know she’s 100% at fault but the comment was innocuous at worst)

Did they ever say who leaked it? That’s the most malicious person of the group.

Wasn't it just picked up on a hot mic during a stream that started early?

I don’t know that it was broadcast live anywhere though. Someone decided to post it online after the fact and that’s how it blew up. Whether it’s someone out to get her or, more likely, to stir up more Diggs controversy, there are no honorable intentions there.

There were folks tweeting it immediately after, so someone was as anxious to spread some dirt.

Hmm. I'd thought this was a streamed media event, which opened early, and that some rando out on teh internets just grabbed the clip and posted it. If it were leaked internally, it should be fairly simple to figure out who disseminated it.

Jordan love you funding suck .

I'm I'm a little drunk. But I know I can throw better than you.

[#freejame]

This has to be the most boring start to a season of all the Allen years right?

This is how you win on the road against a 2 - 0 team with a highly rated defense.  You take what they give you on offence and you kill them with aggression when you are on D to take advantage of a vulnerable offense and QB.
