Why should he clarify? Hardly anyone is taking him that way in the replies, let alone his actual teammates. It’s just some people here making it a thing.

It’s just some people here making it a thing. Because the implications of it being read the other way (and personally that is still my belief as to the point he was trying to make) is a really bad look. Again, I have no problem with him expressing his view on vaccines. That is not what that list bit of the tweet was though and given the possible insinuation he should clarify.

He’s comparing being unvaccinated to being a minority and saying that now that Hughes is part of a majority, he’s just as bad as a racist. If you can’t see that that is racist, I don’t know what to tell you. I understand that is your and others interpretation of this, but that doesn't mean it's the only interpretation or the correct one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodson has been sticking up for him, with light hearted comments. Hughes made 1 comment about the vaccine, just cause it's a different opinion doesn't mean they're pitted against each other at all. It's the "fans" that are causing negativity because they disagree with Beasleys view. And why is this such a big deal to the mods? It's Bills related and this is the biggest Bills forum on the internet, pretty ridiculous we can't discuss it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is putting his views out there on Twitter, others are putting their views out in response. Abused, yes he is. I do not and will not get a twitter account and participate because of the rudeness and abuse. I think it's despicable. Persecution simply means being ill treated or abused for political or religious beliefs, which is what's happening. Not everyone is doing it, but that's just what the word means. FTR I wish he would just shut up because it's getting him nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 5 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Agree that Beasley has good points involving vaccinated teammates who are only tested once every 14 days and can go about unmasked possibly spreading Covid to vaccinated and unvaccinated teammates. This is potentially a real issue and the NFL had better address it. Their protocols are appropriate for last winter, but that was Then, This is Now. Yep. Why not still test everybody regularly? Would anyone actually object to that? And if anyone tests positive, they would still use their tracking methods to sideline any unvaccinated players. 4 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: This thread needs pics of Josh Allen’s girlfriend to redeem itself I agree 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) We have people on certain networks calling for punitive measures to be taken against those that haven’t received the vaccination. The NFL is actually enacting such measures. Jalen Ramsey showed, to me, what leadership is, when he spoke out on social media to make sure nobody on his team feels pressure to get vaccinated because of a league policy that attempts to potentially vilify them during the season. Cole and Hopkins seem less calculated, but more emotional in their social media posts. As someone who agrees with Cole, there’s probably a more coherent way of going about it, while also not allowing themselves to be bullied by a segment of society that views you as “less than” for not getting the vaccination.

muppy Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I've not even read this thread from its OP but this is what I have to say. I learned in a zoom session for reducing stress in a persons life that it is helpful to find a trusted source for your information and limit the amount of info/sources you read or view on a daily basis. In that regard I have made a conscious decision to delete politics as well as multiple news sources bombarding me. But I do check for all my sports information here. And the tweets you all share herein is the extent of my exposure to the twitterverse I do not partake. The fact that alll this drama and conjecture is flying around gives me severe anxiety Im not gonna lie. I actually hate it.

When it comes to players I disagree that the NFL is enacting those measures. Not that I think it's rules for 2021 are perfect - they clearly are not - but there is a way for unvaccinated players to play. They have more restrictions than unvaccinated players but I have to say I think that is fair enough - even if some of those rules could be tweaked somewhat. I think the Dennison thing is a much bigger deal because he basically only had two choices. Vacced or fired and as I said in that thread that makes me instinctively uncomfortable because I don't think that is a decision for the NFL to make.

Unfortunately, given the exponential nature of viral spread in a pandemic, employees’ potential to be infected or to spread infection isn’t limited simply to the people they come in contact with while at work on a daily basis. It’s a tough call and it’s easy to understand why people rebel against it, but it’s better to err on the side of caution imo, given what we’ve seen and what we’ve learned.
