I think this actually becomes more of a distraction when Gibbs even responds to it. Not that he did in any official way but clearly he didn't keep it a secret that he wasn't happy and that got out. It just keeps the story going rather than letting it die without fanfare. I don't know how much these tiny distractions actually distract but I think I speak for all of us in saying that we don't need anything to be a distraction at all right now. I would agree that this shouldn't be a big deal but god knows we'll be pissed if we find out half the players are mad at him and won't work effectively with him or something like that because of it. That's why these things need to be avoided. Not because they definitely cause distraction but because there's no good point to introducing anything that could even potentially be an issue. No matter how small that potential is.
