Agreed … however, I will always believe (by how Beane discussed the situation) that they believed Araiza and wanted to stand behind him. It became too much, and you can’t convince me that Beane didn’t get a call from league brass telling him the decision they prefer he make.

Agreed. Argument would be lost earnings plus lost future earning potential. Unless they have a 2M+ Umbrella, should Arazia go that route and get a judgment, it could be bank account/asset evaluation time if he’s not willing to settle.

Politics were in play, but yes, should be avoided. As far as the witch hunt goes, just own up to it. If you’re a Bills content creator who tore Arazia down, would it kill you to help clear his name?

He was also signed for 4 yrs, a bit under $1M per year. Sam Martin is good. We lucked out. He’s at 3 yrs / 2M AAV. Not that it’s a huge difference, but that’s an extra million per year on a cash strapped team.

It would probably go under liability, which most homeowners have a minimum of $100k .. Umbrella Policies can go into the millions.

You can’t even find their slanderous mentions anymore. All of the big Bills fan accounts seem to have the ability to delete tweets, but not issue a mea culpa.

Bills Mafia Babes went in on Araiza during all that. Seems a lot of our Twitter mafia reps have scrubbed any Araiza slander as I search their Twitter mentions.

And everyone will go on with their life .. except Matt Araiza. Forget if he ever gets his career back .. that name on a resume is forever toxic.

I typically think better of people who are innocent of rape over actual rapists. That’s just me though .. to each, their own.

Yea, I don’t fault Beane at all. The public pressure (and likely internal NFL pressure) was too much. You could tell Beane felt torn up inside to have to let Arazia go.

Anxiously awaiting all of you Bills podcast hosts, content creators and Twitter clout chasers who read the board to publicly apologize for what they said about this man… I know, I know… they’ll say nothing.

Feel free to merge or move to another forum, but a lot of people owe this man an apology.

From everything I've heard about McGovern, he's an average/above-average pass blocker and a below average run blocker. However, it seems he was never really a fit for the Cowboys run scheme, so the hope is he still has some upward trajectory as a young(ish) player, and will improve in a different scheme.

I honestly feel like I’m going crazy reading takes from people advocating us trading Bates or talking about the out we have in McGovern’s contract. Linemen, especially interior linemen, get banged up quite frequently. We just watched Allen get beat up last year. Now we’re talking about trading Bates?… please stop.

Im not even opposed to rational gun control, but your ideas would destroy you newfound home in the Democratic Party. My entire oppo to gun control is simply rooted in my complete distrust of you people when it comes to taking away rights of Americans and not stopping at simply “rational” gun control .. as evidenced by you advocating taking away the handgun of a single mother in a rough part of town who can’t rely on her local govt to protect her. In regards to your delusions about “anti-vaxxers” being some kind of a problem when the vax doesn’t even stop transmission … back at you …. My little brother was forced to get vaxxed due to Biden’s mandate and was in the hospital a week later with heart issues, so with all disrespect, f**k your moral grandstanding.

So we’re supposed to believe Mauricio Garcia is a neo-Nazi white supremacist?

Josh Allen is 6’5 and looks like Spencer Brown’s son next to him.

Hispanics are far more ideologically aligned with Republicans than Democrats. It’s starting to show in recent years.

I’ll take your random changing of the subject to mean you finally concede defeat in your nonsensical assertion that we should take away semi-automatic handguns from the hands of millions and millions of Americans across the entire political spectrum. Republicans do need to address who their constituency is. It should be focused on: -White men -White married women -Hispanics -Black men -Asian/Indian populations Win white men at the overwhelming clip they currently do. Expand upon their majority clip on married white women. Pull even to, and then eventually win Hispanics. Trends look good for R’s here. Eat away at the Dem lead with black men. See, Brian Kemp vs Stacey Abrams in Georgia as a template. As Dems push ideas such as equity, reparations etc., focus on groups you should be winning, but aren’t due to tribalistic voting patterns. Asians and Indians are successful, education focused groups. They will not take kindly to the erasure of a merit based economy and/or educational system.

Do you have any idea how many independents and moderate Dems… let alone left leaning Dems own semi-automatic handguns? The issue would energize Republicans FAR more than Roe energized Dems, and you’d lose independents and moderate Dems who would not be, at all, interested in turning over the semi-automatic handguns they own to keep their families safe to the government. Please try this… as someone who wants the modern Dem Party to be completely eradicated in its ideology, DO IT.

Go for it. The Democratic Party would cease to exist.

You do realize that the vast majority of gun owners, do in fact, own semi-automatics, correct?

Yes, generically speaking, they do. So what’s your answer? It’s easy to get positive buy in with vague sentiment… much more difficult to make actual substantive change. Theres a reason Dems don’t push “too” hard on gun control … it’s a lot of what you’re doing… vague nonsense… because that polls well. “Do Something!!!” polls well …. Actually taking away law abiding citizens guns… not so much.
