Who cares about what the people who were there remember, there are accusations of racism afoot! We must execute those who have been labeled as guilty, and congratulate those who ferreted out this despicable act, even if the only place this evil occurred was in the recesses of their own mind!
Seriously though, people who believe accusations without evidence are fighting against justice with the distorted view of being "good people". It is like they have no idea WHY the idea of innocent til proven guilty was implemented, and the results are... tragic.
This is a bit silly.
What tragic results have afflicted Terry Pegula due to this situation?

He wasn't caught on a hot mic saying something stupid. By Glab's own admission, all he said was "Go get Diggs".
If you listen the recording, he obviously says more - specifically in the 24 - 28 second mark of the video... although the only words I can make out are "Stef" and "get your ass." It's gargled and difficult to hear but it is more than "Go get Diggs." Glab is trying to save face and not trying to throw anyone else under the bus.

Who was the male reporter joking around with Glab and why has he not gotten a shred of what Glab has?
Was he not “unprofessional” as well?

Regardless of what Diggs says her comments are taken out of context. He should understand this - he's a smart guy.
This is a nothing story and Diggs should have ignored it.
Him talking about it just increases the drama.

I assume the alleged comment was off the cuff, rather than part of an interview.
It was allegedly said at a dinner.
The NFL interviewed everyone at said dinner and they all deny it was said (per Buffalo News).
The NFL failed to interview, though, the reporter who heard Terry say this at the dinner.
The NFL did not do their due diligence in investigating the accusation.
This is precisely Trotter's accusation. He is not accusing Pegula of saying these things - he is accusing the NFL of covering up an investigation (which they clearly did if the reporter who claimed to hear the account was not interviewed).

Does Everyone just believe everything they read on the internet?
Humans have never been known to lie?
Pegula already came out and said these disgusting comments are 100% not his and he never said anything like that
Why jump on somebody when you don't have any facts
Pegula already came out and said these disgusting comments are 100% not his and he never said anything like that
You read that on the internet didn't you?

The way I understand it is the suit breaks down as this:
- Trotter heard Jerry’s comments directly.
- He also has a colleague say he heard Pegula say something similar.
- Trotter reports this to the league and nothing ever comes from it.
Trotters talking points don’t focus on Pegula. They are about the leagues due diligence, which comes into question because nobody every called him to get specifics about the Jones incident. So how could they have better Pegula.
As a Bills fan I really dislike this. But as an NFL fan Pegula isn’t the story.
This is accurate. One point I am trying to understand related to the bolded...
If what the Buffalo News says is true, that everyone at the dinner with Pegula was interviewed and they all cleared him, Trotter's case against the NFL is stronger as the colleague who was at the dinner was not interviewed.

The allegation says during a zoom conference that Trotter was part of with other NFL reporters (employees), an unnamed reporter brought up a conversation that he/she with Terry. Trotter would not have heard the comment directly, as the unnamed reporter was recalling comments made at a different time and place. Trotters complaint is that the NFL didn't investigate the allegation that these comments were made in a satisfactory manner.
If what the Buffalo News claims is also true, that everyone at the dinner where Terry said this was interviewed and cleared him of the comments, Trotter's complaint that the NFL didn't investigate the allegations in a satisfactory manner is accurate if the person who heard the comments at the dinner (the unnamed reporter) was not interviewed.
This does not mean Terry said what he is accused of. It does, however, point to the NFL continuing to protect it's own in an effort to avoid all potential controversy.

So the alleged statement was at a dinner per the Buffalo News report....
"A league source told The Buffalo News that the alleged comment was thoroughly investigated, including interviews with Terry and his wife and co-owner, Kim Pegula – who both denied the statement – and every other person at the dinner where this conversation purportedly took place."
However, from the complaint...
“During the meeting, an NFL Media reporter described a conversation he had with Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula in which Mr. Pegula was speaking about the recent emphasis on social activism by NFL players, and in particular support for Black Lives Matter.”
So, if we are to believe the Buffalo News report, the NFL Media reporter was at the dinner? If that's the case, logically this reporter must have also denied the statement if we are to believe the Buffalo News article, which doesn't make sense if said reporter described the conversation "during the meeting."
Make it make sense.

I’m not surprised at this. I remember vaguely him saying a surprising comment towards Byron Brown.
What did he say? Can't read this

I don’t know if he said it or not but unless this was recorded or multiple people say they heard Pegula say it, I‘m siding with Terry.
Do you know he’s telling the truth?I don't know either way.
I certainly don't believe Terry is the saint some think he is.
The amount of criticism he is receiving and the lack of criticism Jerry Jones is receiving is odd.

Gee I don’t know maybe money??? Did you miss the part where he’s suing the league???
Is he also lying about Jerry Jones then?

Do Bills fans 100% in Terry's corner feel the same way about Trotter's comments toward Jerry Jones? They're all bull####?
The guy is a well-respected reporter. Not sure what his incentive is to lie.

Jim Trotter: "I'm suing you because someone told me you said something insensitive. I don't have any proof though."
That's all this is.
He is not suing Terry.

Beyond inexcusable.
This would have been a stupid thing to say in 1990.
Between this and the fracking I think I've lost any and all respect for the man.

What is the logic of this play call? The odds of the first down are slim to none and you are wasting 5% of the total time allotment for the final period.
Why why why? These coaches are supposed to be experts at this *****.

Okay finally voting 🦈
Terry Pegula is ALLEGED to have said something very foul in the Jim Trotter lawsuit against the NFL
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
The accusation isn't Terry said these words and you are misinterpreting the lawsuit.
The accusation is the NFL failed to properly investigate the scenario, which is backed up by the evidence that neither Trotter who reported the conduct to the NFL nor the reporter who claimed to have heard this first-hand from Terry at the dinner were interviewed in the subsequent NFL investigation.
Although I will admit, the way this has been misreported and misrepresented from the start from the media has ruined any chance for a rational discussion on the actual lawsuit.
