Haters in Buffalo can’t help themselves. Bease has been a wonderful addition to this team, but haters want to mail him to a cross for thinking different then they do.

 

Did you seriously just analogize Beasley and his “Imma do what’s best for me, ***** the rest of you” stance to a Crucified martyr, at Christmas no less?

 

Wow.

 

No one is hating Beasley for “thinking different”.  It’s his actions.  He works for an organization which allowed him a choice, and has rules for both choices.  He made his choice, follow the appropriate rules, no problem.

The problem now is not following league rules, not being available to play and maybe he infected others by not following rules. That's not acceptable at all.

Beasley has acted like an ass all season. OK, he chooses not to get vaccinated. This is a fair personal decision but keep your mouth shut and go on like a professional. 

Why keep his mouth shut? He should be able to speak his mind as long as he isn't breaking any rules. But he broke the rules, which is why he is getting the fines.

The NFL has determined (or at least are claiming) that there has been little or no spread within facilities, that people are getting infected and bringing it into the facilities but it isn't spreading there.

 

I don't know if that is actually true. But I don't think it is safe to assume that Cole Beasley is or has infected other players.

I suspect he will be gone.  Not sure of the cap implications but they’ll have McKensie and Stephenson to take over his spot.  And I suspect Beane and McD are tired of his stuff.

Stephenson has showed very little that he can replace the production of Beasley. And everyone here keeps projecting their feelings on to McD when in reality nobody knows how he feels. If he feels he can help the team they will try to keep him here, simple as that.

I'm fine if he wants to send tweets. I'm not fine if he breaks the rules and gets fined and potentially misses games due to his poor decisions.

Yes,I am offering an opinion, no more no less.  But in the NFL it is very common for older players to be moved out in favor of younger ones.

“I’ll do what I want”
 

Direct quote from “heavy 1’s”

 

Dude isn’t a team player. He’s about “the Bease”. That’s it. 
 

Keep him around in case McKittrick gets injured. 
 

But he won’t be with the Bills next season. Won’t be with the Pats either. They won’t put up with hi act. 
 

Maybe Raiders or Cardinals. Those teams seem like a good fit.

I don’t think $100k means anything to Beasley at this point. Looking forward to getting him back in the lineup along with an improved McKenzie…. Two studs in the slot. 


If 100k means nothing to him he’s even dumber than he’s already proven to be. Cut him, send a message and roll with McKenzie.

He’s not going to be cut.  What a silly notion.

 

But today was McKenzie’s chance to make a statement that healthy McKenzie might be better than broken leg Beas or damaged ribs Beas, and should maybe be getting a few more looks over healthy Beas.  Statement made, printed, and signed.

You really haven’t been paying attention to the personal hatred on the board for this man.  His actions are related to his thoughts. Yes he’s posted some foolish tweets, but it’s his personal medical choice which is absolutely nobody’s business except his and his wife’s which has a number of posters panties in a twist. I can’t believe you don’t see that. He got Covid, big deal, how may others have had it this year, how many more will? How many games have vaccinated players missed? There is a giant irrational hatred of Beasley here, a player who played through a fractured leg last year and gave his all. Booed at games and trashed online for a personal health decision. Any tweets have had zero affect on his play or playing time, pretending it has is ignorant.

You don't know that he won't get cut.  He isn't going to get cut now, but that doesn't mean he won't be next year.  Guy isn't really being a team player this year.  I love what the Beas has done for us but he has been a me first guy not a team guy this season.  He is also getting older and more dinged up.

If he misses additional games because of being stupid (Not Covid) then he deserves all the flak he gets. He doesn’t deserve poor treatment because he caught Covid.
