Warcodered Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Sounds basically like a lets ends this so I can move on kind of agreement with both of them dropping their suits. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 I think it's definitely worth getting in contact with him. Hopefully he's been working his craft in all the downtime. Martin needs to go. 3 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milanos Milano Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Make the curse go away and sign him. Insta super bowl. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As inconsistent as Martin has been he's also Bass's holder and that's something Araiza doesn't have exp with. Bass had had issues already and there in no way I mess with his holder this close to playoffs. Easily could cost us much more than a couple short punts. 1 3 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we do the right thing so the curse can be lifted. 3 3 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Water Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Happy for the kid. I think teams have been waiting for the matter to be completely settled on the Civil side to potentially give Araiza a look in the off-season, so hopefully that will happen now. 1 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s also a punter a position teams don’t really care about. If he was Josh Allen, he would still be on the time. It sucks but that’s the reality of the situation. The better you are and more important position you play, teams will be more patient and let the facts play out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practice squad I could jive with, but again, there is no way he sees the field until next year. You simply don't mess with the PAT/FG process this late in the season unless it's forced due to injury. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 I think after the Bills kicked him to the curb, they are the last team he wants to sign with…especially considering the nasty weather the Bills punter has to deal with year in and year out. 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Water Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) 18 minutes ago, Doc said: After a year and a half of this charade they finally admit they have no case against him. Legally, that's not quite what this means. It's more like a "mutually assured destruction" tactic in civil suits where defending the defamation countersuit can drain the finances of the accuser who filed a civil suit because lawyers defending you demand payment up front (there's no chance they'll get paid by a settlement if they win, after all). So the accuser is maneuvered into a financial position to agree to drop the case. Florio had commentary about this legal strategy back when the accusations against DeShaun Watson first came out. Surprised it took this long once the defamation countersuit was filed. Quote Gilleon forwarded CBS 8 the signed agreement, which stated, “Without admitting and expressly denying any liability whatsoever, the Parties now desire to resolve any and all disputes which may exist between them, including but not limited to those which arise out of, are connected or related to, the Incident.” “Each Party is solely responsible for any attorney’s fees, mediation fees, expert fees, and costs that he, she, or it has incurred,” the agreement stated. "He, She, or It" ???????? Well....it IS California Edited December 12, 2023 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The better you are and more important position you play, teams will be more patient and let the facts play out. And this, of course. Shady McCoy took flak for it, but he called it correctly when the Kaepernick stuff first emerged. The amount of distraction or trouble a team will tolerate is directly proportional to their talent at their position, and the importance of that position. (It was a pretty firm Dis on Kaepernick's talent actually, since QB is arguably the most important position on the team) Who was that punter who was leading the league in punt length, but poor in directional control? Was it Bojorquez? He refused to re-sign with Buffalo because he wanted to play on the West Coast, felt he should be able to dictate his contract terms 'cuz, leading the league in punt length, signed with one of the Cali teams that already had a punter, and wound up getting traded to Green Bay?
