Aaron Maybin is starting to piss me off

by Steve

Not only is Aaron Maybin, the number 11 overall pick in the '09 draft still unsigned, has already missed the first 2+ weeks of training camp and at least the first preseason game of the year; he's also a biggity bitch cry baby. Well, at least according to his "publicist" LaVar Arrington..

“He was in tears not being able to be out there Sunday,” said Arrington, who watched the Bills preseason game with Maybin on TV. “He’s a good kid. Hopefully we get it done quickly.”

Not only does he admit Maybin cried he also blamed the entire reason he is unsigned on Crabtree. Crabtree plays offense, is a top 10 draft pick and was clearly graded higher than where he was picked. Maybin is a defensive end, one of seemingly a million that got drafted in the first round this year and is lucky to have been drafted as high as he was to begin with.

Of course, he isn't 100% to blame in all of this but at this point it is time to start pointing fingers directly at him. Then again this is the Bills front office we're talking about. They aren't exactly the epitome of a well run organization. The owner GM and coach have little to no success at their positions and the team has been a joke for 10+ years and probably closer to fifty.

Either way, if Maybin was so desperate to get into camp he would be there already. We are probably talking about maybe $1-2 million in guaranteed money. The time AM is currently missing is a.) hurting his learning curve b.) stunting future growth and c.) severly hampering his ability to earn much more money in incentives this year and probably future years.

It gets worse. The players on the Bills are all taking his side, of course, and calling us fans ignorant.. GFY

Early Tuesday afternoon, Maybin posted on his Twitter.com site that he would cease tweeting until he’s signed because “of the ignorance and stupidity of some people on twitter.”

Added Maybin: “I’m tired of having to defend myself and my love for this game and the Bills franchise every day to those who know nothing about the business.”

Bills linebacker Kawika Mitchell(notes) and safety Donte Whitner(notes) immediately rallied to Maybin’s support by posting tweets of their own.

All I know is the Bills pass rush is awful and most of the first round picks have been signed. Oh and that my patience is wearing thin.
