So Daly is saying that teams should see a significant raise in the Cap after the 23-24 season. So the Sabres should be able to get a few more Bishop's next year to help get to the floor. Sorry but in all seriousness I hope Adams has his eyes on that.
- Buff36


Adams has been very clear all along.
From Gerbe, this is the plan all along.

Even next season, Adams again will have a poop ton of Cap Space to invest wisely.
After evaluating what he has this season, he should be poised to make a trade or two and a FA or two. I wouldn't see him spending on several FA's, but coloring around the edges for sure.

Well, you are The King of over reacting with extremely small sample sizes, so it should be you who leads the let's cut his nuts off now/ I have read enough media reports group.

Let it play out. THEN, make the decision when the facts are known.

My whole situation has red flags on both parties.

Do I believe the girl was raped? Yes, I 100%.

Do I think Ariza had sex with her? Yes 100%

My issue is couple things:

1) the girl told the entire party and her friend also confirmed That she said she was 18 and went to college.

So the sex with a minor. How was Ariza supposed to know that?

Then the hook up on the side of the house. She consented to.

If Ariza can prove that he wasn’t in the bedroom.

He is cleared from wrong doing.

He’s been terrible. It’s all about him and the media attention. Not about the girl.

He also follows porn stars on his twitter account lol

This won't be the first time a young girl cries rape when she was very promiscuous...trying to save face.
Now before Boss gets all confused, I am NOT saying THIS girl specifically IS/WAS promiscuous...because we don't know yet...since we have only heard her side of the story...and that we have seen multiple times with being inaccurate..
Let it play out.

I agree with you. We need to hear both sides. The girls stories are conflicting and the lawyer is acting like a turd.

People / fans are so quick to release the guy. His life and career are hanging in a balance right now. It can go up a very solid trajectory or can crash and burn.

I am okay with the bills taking there time. A lot riding on this. They are treating Ariza fairly

He should not take the field in a Bill's uniform until this situation is completely cleared up.

If it takes a year, so be it.

They ripped her piercings out and bloodied her.
Is that ok if she was 18 or promiscuous?

Wrong.
He should not take the field again for anybody if and when it is determined that beyond a reasonable doubt he is guilty, then and only then.
Ruining a person's career solely over allegations by a less than highly credible person due to their admitted condition is wrong, period. She already lied about her age I'm told...not off to a stellar start. Something smells fishy.

When you say "they", can you without reasonable doubt say that Ariaza participated. No, not yet you can't.
Let it play out. Until then, Innocent until PROVEN guilty beyond reasonable doubt.

if you listen to the video I posted from Araiza's lawyer, seems pretty clear one guy did some bad things

We don't know if Araiza was even in the room when that happened as the woman blacked out and it's all hazy when it comes to details

The lawyer also posts publicly a so called diary that looks like it was written by a 10 year old

Let's be clear about a few things, labeling her a child paints a narrative. She was a 17 year old with all her privates pierced and according to Araiza's lawyer was telling people she was 18 years old and going to college. She clearly was not an innocent virgin.

Araiza is probably guilty of letting her go down on him after 5 or 10 minute introduction and had outdoor sex with her. My guess is 33 percent of Americans have had sex with a 17 year old and a high percentage of those were probably with women who lied about her age.

Should he be banished from the NFL if this is all he did, that is up to the 32 nfl owners

The irony yesterday is a large number of people posting on bills social media saying he needs to go, also took the time to wish biscuit a happy birthday and let's just say he did a lot of bad things to women in the falls area


the bills have every right to cut ties if they want and they also have every right to let this play out.

If she never said “no” or “stop” the only issue here ends up being her age.

Very well said. We don't know what happened, even though it is clear he did *something*. As you said, there are a ton of these guys that have done this. This is not at all to say it is ok. I was thinking about this last night - I wonder if at some point a team will go to an accuser and ask if they are alright with the athlete playing for their team (e.g. they have somehow made ammends). Its so hard to know what the bar is. It seems that some arbitrary number of months / years needs to pass before it becomes ok for an athelete to come back.

W/o Josh Allen Buffalo will (again) become a bottom tier destination for players. Even Von Miller still questioned(s) his decision based purely on location.

In the organizational mindset you want to back and protect players (even in initial horrible PR) until necessary. Every one wants to trust the process until resistance arrives.

there is no right answer now

you think the morale in that locker room would be sunshine lollipops on cutting a team mate over a cash grab attempt?



whatever the outcome will have issues and I am pretty sure the bills brass knows a lot more then hockeybuzz posters on this topic right now

I just don't know how in your residence you don't have a incling of what is going on. The sex outside is on her just as much as long as it wasn't forced and it doesn't sound that way. But inside is different, I just don't see that part.

I know too many stories of a girl banging the entire hockey team or basketball team… Let’s be real. It’s gross but this stuff happens. It was a gang bang. If she never said stop, if never said no, if she never said don’t, the only issue here ends up being her age.

And unless the entire San Diego St. football team are 30+ years old, this is a story I have heard a hundred times.

Chick got drunk and thought it would be cool to let the whole football team smash, and it literally is a bunch of teenagers. Then she felt dirty.

If she at any point said stop even ONE time, this entire thing gets flipped on it’s head.

Kerry Armstrong, Araiza's attorney, told the Los Angeles Times Thursday he hadn’t reviewed the complaint but called the rape accusation false. He said his investigator spoke to witnesses from the party who contradict the allegations against Araiza. NBC 7 reached out for further comment but did not hear back.

Friday evening, Araiza made his first public comment on the lawsuit, telling The Athletic and ESPN, “The facts of the incident are not what they are portrayed in the lawsuit or in the press. I look forward to quickly setting the record straight.”

Yeah, she consented to the sex / fooling around part on the side of the house.

The inside part is the hazy part. Did ariza actually lead her to the bedroom

If he already got his rocks off with that girl. Why would he go to a room to participate when his rocks needed to recharge.

I see No need for that

The lawsuit claims Araiza "could observe that [the teen] was heavily intoxicated" and handed her a drink that she did not see him pour. "Upon information and belief, this drink not only contained alcohol, but other intoxicating substances," the complaint alleged.

The teen was allegedly led into a room that Leonard, Ewaliko and at least one other person were already in. She went in and out of consciousness as the men raped her, according to the complaint, but she remembered seeing what appeared to be the light of a cell phone in her peripheral vision as if someone was recording a video.

never said he led her into the room
but the timing of the civil lawsuit happens to be right after haack got cut
