More than likely, they were each dining with friends. I go to a lot of away games, and I always see 2 or 3 of these guys together, never alone. Like you said, the media shews things. Just like the supposely bickering inside of the locker room. A lot of this team's success is credited to their closeness; the guys always talk about this. So, I wouldn't put it pass anyone, especially the media to say things to try to destroy that bond.
