There's where you are missing the point. The players did not choose to resolve differences on social media. Their difference were simply exposed on social media. Those differences were resolved in private. I expect that you are believing the players are lying when they have all said those differences have, indeed, been resolved. If they are telling the truth, and why wouldn't they, why would there be a problem in the coming season? That makes no sense. Quite the contrary, to me it sounds like they are on the same page which should build inner strength, instead.

The Saints, having addressed these issues already, should be a step ahead of the rest of the league which face all the same burdens including less than exuberant fans. Especially since the stands may be only 25% filled.
