He was not cut.
See the difference?
No, he won't.
Some people wanted to see Andy benched to see what the guy behind him could do in a real, game time atmosphere. If the backup sucks, you can put Andy back in since you just benched him and didn't cut him. For some reason, to Fred, benching and cutting are almost identical. How a human being can read these scenarios and say "I just don't see it" is mind boggling.
Or others wanted to trade Andy to get some sort of value for him since he would definitely start on at least a handful of other teams.
Nobody is stupid enough to say to cut him completely, and that was the strawman Xeno used. BUT, it's only a strawman if Fred says so, its only semantics if Fred says so, we won't go by the literal, given definitions of the terms. Freddy makes up how we play as he goes, that's the only way he's "right", which is very important to him on a message board.
Zero people have said to cut Andy. Xeno claimed many wanted him cut to strengthen his point. It's a strawman argument, plain and simple.
