and another story mentioned the CA talking about getting "their story straight"

What time were they suppose to fly the next morning and what are AS rules for drinking prior to flight? I'm also thinking there is WAY more to this story that has been put out.
I'm sure any crew at most airlines would be removed from their next flight if another employee called the DO to express concern about alcohol, regardless of the timeline. Better safe than sorry, for all concerned. I wouldn't read to much into that yet.
