There is a direct correlation between this incident coming to light (Feb 18) and the season going in the tank. Losing 5 of 6 after this happened. Clearly as far as the team and team chemistry was concerned this was some kind of a deal, regardless of what any of us think about it.
As Sir Arthur Conan Doyle says via his most famous character Sherlock Holmes: Coincidence? I think not! The universe is rarely that lazy.
What the ****? Hot takes are garbage, this is something even worse.
