The San Jose Sabrecats’ locker room is usually a pretty chill place, everyone vibing, getting along, having a good time. The pressure of an unexpected and unlikely run at the playoffs (yes, it’s still mathematically possible, sue me) has ratcheted up the tension among the players. Yes, this is a franchise with a couple of Ultimus wins in their fairly recent history, but the majority of the current roster were still in college, including British Cornerback Gibson, who was minding his own business, when a discussion behind him in the locker room got a bit heated. It was star TE Deshawn Penne and top Safety Orpheus Czargyros, arguing over what the elite food for carb loading was. Penne was squarely on the side of a nice pasta, preferably tubular, with a nice sauce. Czargyros, however, prefers a nice doughy bagel, preferably onion flavoured. The high pressure environment managed to turn a simple disagreement into a shoving match, which was quickly broken up by the other Sabrecats before they could come to blows!
