LOS ANGELES - Following accusations of possible scabs, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) initiated an investigation into the scriptwriters for Leagues Cup games.
Solidarity!
“We take strike breaking and scabs very seriously,” stated one official with the WGA. “However, we are confident that the body of work we have seen this far would indicate scabs, more than talented writers, crossing the picket line.”
Sources say that the WGA picked up on the narrative after looking at the current results.
“Yes, you can see the heavy hand here,” stated one insider, “but honestly…. having him score the freekick to win the game? That’s more than a little bit ON THE NOSE.”
For their part, Leagues Cup officials denied the charge stating that the games would shake out as they would.
However, those in the know claim that the Leagues Cup reached out to writers with Succession for a way to really mix things up in the knock out round.
