ColoradoBills Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 2 minutes ago, Teddy KGB said: why are y’all discussing this ? It’s time to cut good players ? I was giving the Dead Money versus Cap Savings of Cole Beasley contract with the Buffalo Bills. If that doesn't interest you you can comment on other things. If Cole Beasley was to be traded/cut next year I wouldn't be the one doing it. But I would like to know what it would result in.

I'm not trying to get you to admit your wrong or right. But you're doing the same thing over and over, turning opinion into factual or bold statements... 1. Coach yelling at Beas: we've already covered this. 2. Now again with Beas calling out an entire fanbase, or putting them on blast as you said. How? I don't feel called out. Another bold statement made with utmost confidence and soreness. He called out those fans heckling/booing him. What Bills Fan goes to a game to boo our own players, anyway? Especially over their beliefs/views, Albeit views I don't agree with, but come on now. Again. you dislike the player because of his social media comments/views, great. But when you start to twist what's happening, that's what I'm calling out (see above examples). Pretty clear. “I thought bills fans were the best in the world? Where’d they go?” - Mr I am Staying off Twitter until end of season. that is calling out the entire fan base. Unless you want to pull the #LetemIn hashtag too and say he was only calling out The Vaxxed fan base which is it? and this was my first time mentioning his vaccination status because reality is I give zero shots about it.

I don't see him saying SOME fans or "a small number of fans" . Hisi comment was directed at the Bills fan base, period. That's the big issue to me. That and he can't stop drawing attention to himself. I actually think he might have just been a bit pissed because he had so few targets yesterday.

Honestly, it never gets talked about even for a second in any of the tailgate parties I have attended. People mostly don't care one way or the other. Bills fans love the guy and want them on this team because he is a great player. This is just my sense talking to fans here and there outside of this board, but I think it's not just a "handful of people on the board" who care about it. I suppose the crowd ya run with has an influence on perception. I think a better way of putting it would be: even for those who care about it and think it is unfortunate and wish he would change his views, most of us still recognize he's a helluva football player, love what he brings on the field, and want him on the team because of that. If I were at a tailgate in person, it would certainly not be on my mind or something I'd talk about. But when Beasley is at it again like he is right now, tweeting up a storm of misinformation about why (or why not) to get vaccinated, he does make it a little harder for me to remember what a great player he is. It's not like it's a deal to me what Beasley personally does. Like he says, he's getting tested every day. But others are not, and don't want to take other steps either like masking, and this is making life crappier in a lot of places for a lot of folks. Some people who don't have Covid are literally dieing right now because the ICU bed and the cardiologist they need are not available to them due to beds full of Covid cases, and how I feel about that isn't printable on this newsgroup. 5 1 2 2 5

Maybe you feel called out, because you don't? I don't need a response, just worth considering.

I suppose it's hopeless, but I have been Hopeful in my time. 3 1
muppy Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) booing equals frustration and anger. Ive booed at Bills games but always at ref's or smack at opponents. Never a Bills player. This is different . Me no likey. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Edited October 4, 2021 by Muppy 1 1

Never a Bills layer. This is different . Me no likey. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO So, the natural conclusion is that some people are frustrated and angry, not at Beasely as a player, but at the misinformed views he is publicly and repeatedly expressing. I wouldn't boo him at a game myself because I'm at a football game and he's ***** awesome at football, but while I don't GAF if Beasley would prefer to get tested every single day vs. get vaccinated, I can completely understand people being frustrated and angry at the misinformation being expressed Over. and Over. 4 1 1

BINGO BOTH. I should elaborate. I think people are sick of having to deal with this pandemic and view those who conceivably put themselves and others at risk. Frustrating... And his refusal to STFU and say off twitter. JMO Both Edited October 4, 2021 by Muppy
SCBills Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) So it sounds like Cole is aware most are cheering him, but got mad at some boo’ing and some talking ish about his stance. While I support Cole in his views on this, he needs to man down on the pity party. He clearly knows it’s just some idiot fans. Just like certain Brooklyn Nets fans will talk trash about Kyrie on Twitter and the cheer when he’s crossing people up this season. At least Cole plays for a fanbase in Buffalo and isn’t taking this overly vocal stance in a town full of microbrew drinking hipsters. Edited October 4, 2021 by SCBills
