Maddy Glab? Possibly trash talking Diggs on hot mic - Diggs responds via tweet

[krf139]

All of his cryptic tweets can be considered jokes / messing around. Fine when he jokes around but not anyone else. 

[Beast]

So, the Bills should fire her and shed even more light on a ridiculous matter?

Because everyone knows (1) it was said in jest during a private convo, and (2) there is truth to what she's saying.

If its true, then its not in jest. If its in jest, then its not true.

White Knights are here to rage at Diggs for picking on that poor poor woman.

 

Some have made up their minds that he’s a “diva since Minnesota” and no amount of being captain, loved by his teammates, getting annoyed with people commenting on his personality, etc, will ever change that. At a minimum what she said was incredibly professionally stupid, but nah, she’s just a poor young kid and it’s still Diggs that’s the problem of course.

I mean, can I think he’s a moody guy that’s a mixed bag? It seems fair

[BillsPride12]

Been off the boards all day and this thread is still going?

 

If she was getting fired she'd be gone already....Time to move on

 

Bring on the RAAIIDERRSSS......GO BILLS!!!

It’s called you have a pre existing bias against Diggs and are going to assume he was wrong no matter what, making this a useless exercise. Wide receivers catch footballs, and Buffalo media mouthpieces (not reporters) should be aware of hot mics and act accordingly, especially after 3-4 years on the job.

 

Some of you guys get so emotional about these players. Why would I have a "pre existing bias" against Diggs? I like Diggs. He's the greatest WR in Bills history so I want him here for as long as he can play at an extremely high level. He's been known publicly since he played college football at Maryland as someone who has a strong, fiery personality. He's not above someone making a joke about it.

It's only been one game and

Josh sucks

Diggs is a a bum hole

McD claps too much and is a horrible coach

Maddy Gab talks too much

Pegula may be a not nice person. 
refs no longer throw flags they just fine afterwards. 

Yeah we lost a game

This week suuuuucked

Agree except that Reed would disagree with you about the greatest

I honestly think it's incredible she still has her job.  That said, when was the last time the Bills looked outside the organization to fill a position?  Maybe they just don't want to bother looking for her replacement.

They brought her in from outside as I recall.

 

This is simple.  You read and/or listen to the whole thing she sounds like it’s tongue in cheek.  Even if not she apologized either way.  If Diggs wants to be the leader of the team, then you don’t make it a big deal.  You simply say you know Maddie, you accept her apology, and move on.  But he had to tweet a bunch of stuff, which merely inflames things.  Leaders actually lead; that is not just ranting on the field and telling teammates they stink.

 

And to whoever referred to the White Knights and such, my opinion has nothing to do with any of the parties being white, black, brown, pink, or a lovely shade of chartreuse.

 

So moving on.  Kill the Raiders tomorrow, Josh gets back on track, Diggs torches them, defense rears up and stuffs Jacobs, and we’re back on track.  Go Bills!!!

Yes.  At worst an off the cuff thing.  And instead of Diggs actually being a leader and having a private discussion if he was upset he had to go and tweet a bunch of stuff.  
 

let me ask you:  is there some truth to what she said and if so is that her fault?  Or Diggs?

How do you know it was a joke?  
 

Just asking.

From what she said and how she said it.  At worst just a tongue in cheek comment.

I don’t believe so.  Maybe it was.

 

Does Stef have the right to be angry? Absolutely.  It would be better if he kept it in house for sure.

 

Is he a diva?  Surely been painted that way.  Thing is not one of us know him and can’t vouch either way.  Easier to make him a villain, that’s what the media does.  I’d much rather have a guy who wants to win than a guy who can’t care less.

Come on.  Find me one guy on the roster that doesn’t want to win.  His wanting to win has nothing to do with this incident. He could have been a bigger guy, accepted the apology and moved on.  Instead he gives us the diva stuff.

Listen, I get he can be exhausting.  I was kinda done with him in the off-season with his tweets. They were supposed to be a joke, but many people didn’t see it that way.  No reason to stoke the fire.

 

There are guys on every roster who are burning to be the best.  Josh is ours.  With Stef a close 2nd. Then there are guys on every roster for whom the money is more important.  I can’t think of someone right now, but we have had them in the past…every team has.

 

He could have left it in house for sure.  He chose not to.  I don’t like the look, gives the team a black eye.  Let’s not forget Glab made a huge mistake and let her words be heard.  She created the problem.  Whether they were joking words or not, media people for the team should not be saying it out loud.  She has every right to feel the way she does, she deals directly with him, we do not.  Still, need to keep those feelings to yourself.

What makes you think they haven't fired her? She's been absent from everything ever since the incident. It's not like they would announce her firing; if she's fired, nothing will ever be said...by anyone, except maybe Glab herself.

 

We'll know a little more today by the end of the day.

[zow2]

She's radioactive this week.  If she's not fired I'd be shocked if the club allows her anywhere near a mic, the press room, the players, etc..  Maybe she will be working in the back room of the ticket office for a few weeks.

I feel sorry for her.  

 

There's a very good article about the situation linked on the homepage.

I'm sure she's crushed over it.  She's probably been crying frequently since it was put out.  

 

My question is who was so eager to put that out.  Kind of a big nothing-burger that's been made into a mountain.  

 

 

[coloradobillsfan]

How many people are at tailgates right now saying things that, if recorded, would get them in all kinds of trouble.  I'm not a big MG fan and in my opinion this is apology worthy, but nowhere near a hanging offense.

Because everyone's freaking out about everything with this team. The owner's a racist, the WR swears at everyone, and the QB needs to grow up and watch more film. 

actually that is all true.  but it doesn't preclude them getting their act together and winning the super bowl.  they have beane's drafting and coach camo's game management skills for that.

I"m not a fan of Maddy — no insight and looks like a hire made to stop trotting out middle-aged men as commentators — but this article is fair and her comments were not that bad, especially considering she thought it was a private convo. And whoever leaked it was not ultimately trying to help the team.

And yeah, my comments are not whatsover geared pro or con of her, I didn't even know who she was until camp this year.  She could be the sweetest girl or the biggest B word in the world for all I know.  LOL

Maddy Glab is not doing the Bills Tonite with Tasker.  It's Chris Brown and Tasker.  Watching on Twitter as we speak.

No Maddy on the online postgame show -- she was replaced by Chris Brown (huge workload for him today). Of course, nothing was said.

 

Maddy is either suspended or has been terminated.

She was on a feature on the Jumbotron at the stadium today during a TV timeout, so I figured everything was smoothed over.

Good article. I don't know her, but my impression is that she was joking and I honestly don't think she dislikes Diggs or was trashing him.

 

Diggs had the opportunity to be graceful and diffuse the situation. So far, he has chosen not to do so. I wish he had. 

 

If and when she appears again, it would be nice to see the two of them do something together for the team website and/or the team youtube. It would be nice to get this all behind the team.

Her husband is a big Bills fan as well. So awkward. She’s probably just been suspended. Chris Brown was suspended last year I believe for talking about lineups or something. She’ll be fine.

It's a team disruption so clearly it wasn't a fan who leaked it.
