And even more elementary than that, you should understand the difference between the meaning of the words, "would" and "could."

 

Also, you should understand the importance of owning what you say instead of weaseling out of it through equivocation and rationalization.

 

 

What I said was that not resigning Hollins would be the straw that broke the camels back, "IF and it's still a big IF, the Bills fall apart and miss he playoffs".  And I believe this and am not backing away one inch.  If you want to play GOTCHA go ahead and have at it but at least use the entire sentence I posted to complain about whether or not I should have said "could" instead of "would".

As in your earlier posts about Joe Brady, you have a tendency to use vague language and then change the meaning to suit the moment.

It takes the form of "that's not what I meant."

Of all the bad decisions and missed picks Beane has had, not re-signing Mack Hollins isn't going to be what costs him his job. 

 

From the sounds of it, they made Hollins an offer and it was Hollins's choice to head to New England. 

 

Maybe Hollins and his representative told the Bills the offer the Patriots made and Beane passed. Maybe Hollins got the offer and jumped on it. But no one can force a guy to stay if he wants to go. 

Maybe Hollins thought the Pats were on a different trajectory than the Bills.
