Cole Beasley just doesn’t know when to stop.

The Buffalo Bills receiver has been rather outspoken when it comes to his overall opposition to the idea of getting vaccinated to help protect himself and those around him from a virus that has killed over 600,000 people in the United States alone.

In response to the idea that a player earning millions of dollars shouldn’t be doing this, Beasley wrote, “I’m not upset but if I’m pushing something with this platform they shouldn’t get free marketing. They are a business like everything else.”

On Tuesday, he decided to make things even worse by going with the argument of him being rich and others being poor.

“I get it. I’m dumb you guys are smart. I have an awesome family. They’re taken care of forever and I’m only 32 years old. I have a great life. I’d say I’ve done pretty well for a dumb guy with CTE.”

The classic, “I’m rich, you’re poor, haha” retort. Real original my dude. ?

I get it. I’m poor you are rich. My family isn’t taken care of forever and I’m 36. My life is average and I’ve underachieved physically for a poor guy with an average life.
Your clap back is a flex about being rich.

Your family is taken care because you left them tons of money? What about a husband and a father?
Man, I love you as a player but to believe that your will and your ideas are more important than the safety of your family and community, that´s individualism to the extreme. Sorry.

I have zero issue with @Bease11 not getting the vaccine. But to brag about how he has made so much money his “family is taken care of” is kind of annoying. There are tens of millions of people that work hard and are just trying to make it to the next week or month.

All I’m hearing is “I’m rich, you are poor”. Understand how BLESSED you are to play in a league for millions of dollars a year. BLESSED to possess that talent you were given. Meanwhile people out here SAVING LIVES are barely making enough to make it by. Not cool Bease, not cool. https://t.co/gREcGlVHzU

Why is it that the dumbest fucking people get money?
"I'm rich, your not" is a stupid response to a lack of empathy and giving a shit about the common good.

I'm sorry you can't see past the needs of you and your family, it must really suck to be that god damn selfish. https://t.co/uFwyp2beOl
