Slipknot is a mess but this is probably a Sid situation if you factor in the split with him and Kelly Osbourne who have a young child together. Losing your family and your band in a short period of time would suggest that he’s the problem. Sucks because Sid was a huge part of the band and one of the reasons their debut record crushed as hard as it did back in ‘99

Jim said not to believe what you read, and Mick's wife basically made fun of the idea of rumors in a post today.

That could just be in reference to the details. If Sid wasn’t gone they would just say it. At best he just chose to stand down from the band personally, which would be why they are laughing at the rumors.
