There was no overreaction. You seem to be confusing me with other posters. I never said to cut him or fine him or anything of that sort. All I said is that he is spiraling down a bad path (from yelling at his QB in the Cinci loss, to taking Bills stuff off his social media, to skipping voluntaries, to unfollowing the team, to leaving practice, etc) and that the Bills and PSE’s public relations team would try to cover it up once it’s smoothed over. And I was correct every step of the way. Zero overreaction. Those who overreacted were the ones who wanted him gone from the team, which was obviously never happening.

That’s where semantics come into play. Obviously it’s all football related. Whether he doesn’t like the scheme/plays, or doesn’t like the play caller (Dorsey), or has an issue with Allen not being present in the Bengals loss, it’s all football matters. But it can be spun from another angle as well, to say, “well those are personal issues because they don’t take place on the actual football field”. So it’s a semantics game.

I don’t think it was spill over. I believe it was a purposeful comment. A warning shot. I think what will eventually come out, maybe not for a year even as people tend to not go into detail when they’re still on the roster, is that Diggs stormed out after a heated conversation. McDermott then fired the shot across the bow. Purposefully. PR is putting the toothpaste back into the bottle by coming up with the narrative that it was an “excused” absence. Which obviously doesn’t make much sense since McDermott was asked yesterday whether it was an excused absence (oops). But when you own the media in town, you can steer the direction of the talk in the way that you want. And with so many diehard fans willing to believe anything they say, it doesn’t really matter what McD said in that press conference. McD could have said “I want to cut him right now” and they would easily find their way out of it due to the PSE-owned media and homers

Allen saying it’s not football related, McDermott saying it was an excused absence, etc.

“it was oft observed that the vanquished, despite tasting the bitter sting of defeat, did oft perceive themselves as victors in their own hearts”

This is true.

I stand by that image. Homers is not an insult, right?

No hysteria from me. I simply called it like it is. You forgot to mention that I was mentioned and quoted numerous times in a magazine this month (not a joke).

Yes it’s difficult. Thankfully for PSE they have an iron grip on the media so they can control the narrative and steer the direction of talk where they want it to go.

Rare misstep on my part. I shouldn’t have written that. I apologize. I try never to insult anyone.

Yep. As I said it would be…

You must be confusing me with another. I do no insult anyone. I am the one always being insulted. Worst I call someone is a “homer” - which just means a fan that rejects logic in favor of fandom.

That one is better.

Thank you.

Look around you. There are plenty of people who buy it.

“A fool says to the wise man, ‘you are an idiot’ though the wise man only wants to show the fool truth”

Correct. And i’m honestly impressed with that astute observation on your part. McDermott didn’t “slip up”. He purposefully said what he said. It was a shot across the bow. It was planned, and the PR plan was in place before the words ever left his mouth.

Sometimes it’s best to laugh at the lemmings. Here is what I posted 16 hours ago. I told them all the script of how this would go down. It is unfolding nearly exactly as I said it would. Why? Because we run PR campaigns at my company. I know how they work. This was extremely predictable.

You care enough to continue posting in this thread

The funny (or sad) part is that there is no shortage of posters who don’t realize the Bills are lying directly to their face.

This is exactly what I predicted would happen, yesterday. PR team is at work.

You said we overreacted. We didn’t. We reacted appropriately. Even the head coach said he was very concerned. Speaking of straw men, I never said it wasn’t fixable. Which part didn’t you understand? I’ll break it down into a way that someone of your intellect can understand.

Sal and Chris Brown are in a decade long competition for whose nose can be browner.

Glad we can agree that nothing was overdramatized and this all happened and it was not okay. If Diggs gets his act together, that’s good, and it means he rehabilitated his bad behavior (at least for now). But it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen and it doesn’t mean it wasn’t bad. Just like someone who hurts someone in a DWI and then changes their life after coming out prison. Did the court overreact by putting them in prison? No. They rehabilitated their life AFTER what they did terribly wrong.

Good PSE boy. Repeat the company line. Pretend Diggs didn’t blow up on the franchise QB on the sideline. Pretend Diggs didn’t storm out of the stadium before the coaches could even reach the locker room. Pretend Diggs didn’t delete all Bills items from his social media. Pretend Diggs didn’t unfollow the Bills. Pretend Diggs didn’t leave the mandatory OTA’s. Pretend the HEAD COACH didn’t say he is “very concerned”. Pretend, pretend, pretend. Just over reacting!
