It's really an unfortunate byproduct because you know there's so much more happening behind the scenes.

So what is your take on what we saw with Matheson and Draisaitl?
For me who has watched these things for close to 5 decades, it was remarkable (and obvious) to me what JM was trying to get LD to say. It was never going to be uttered and when the player snapped back, JM playing the whole "why are you being pissy" took it to another level.
I mean, great theater but ridiculous to believe it would end any other way.
