Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
eball replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
Your crusade is consistent and persistent. At least twice a month you let us know (again) that you’re unhappy with Pegula’s decision not to build a dome and how the Bills are “obviously” cheaping out on everything, doing nothing new, and taking everyone for a ride. Last month you made the brilliant observation that the Bills aren’t installing cushioned seats in an outdoor venue, assuming that fans will be unhappy — and then included pictures of seats in domed stadiums to back up your argument! That’s classic. Now it’s that the design is apparently old and there’s no way technology has improved. Keep doing your thing, man… -

It’s shocking that you’re a teacher. I ask again, what law has been created that so abridges the rights of the citizenry? Yeah sure. He’s a friggin doctor. You’re not. And he had the added benefit of being right about everything he said. A mandatory vax (sanctioned by SCOTUS, FYI) is authoritarian, but sending the Marines to an American city point guns at Americans is not. Unbelievable. -
Love your posts, but disagree with a lot of this perception and I think you are conflating situations to fit this narrative. What you're basically saying here is that if Cook had not posted the comment "15 mill year" and showed up to OTAs, he'd be signed for his desired amount. I dont think Beane was going up to $14M-$15M in any situation this offseason. But Beane DID offer him an extension of some kind. Beane was willing to pay him, it was just lower than Cook wants. To the opposite point, Edmunds didnt get paid, Singletary didnt get paid, Moss got traded, they were all "good soldiers". But the talent wasnt there to even get an extension offer. Benford, Rousseau, Bernard, and Shakir all got extensions this offseason because they have the talent AND were willing to accept team-friendly deals. Not because they showed up to OTAs and didnt post on social media. And for Benford, Bernard, and Shakir, they were all mid-late round picks so these low-dollar extensions are even more enticing for them. And outside of Diggs, who Beane had just handed a big new contract (even being known as a loud-mouth), I cant think of anyone else who tantrumed their way off the team. And even then, he still got paid. TWICE! So I dont buy what this post is selling. I think it's much more the situation that both Poyer and Hyde faced in their negotiations and unhappiness with their contracts: Beane has values placed on all positions, and he will only spend so much on certain positions. He has proven they do not place a high amount on Safety, and he's proving they have a similar low value amount on RB. And both Poyer and Hyde were good soldiers who showed up and did their jobs, but were never happy with their contracts, and never got paid.

That, and if it's true that our OL is so good they "make the RB" then why do we need an RB to stay in and help this supposed amazing OL? Cook should be popping out of the backfield and making himself another option/target for Josh.
