Now that it's final, how do you feel about Deshaun Watson?

[Debbie Does]

Goodell did nothing about this for a year after the charges showed up. To some extent, justice delayed is justice denied. Goodell has always been like this. He keeps players and teams in suspense just because he can. Why can't he make decisions quickly? It seems like he's trying to find anyone who is upset, even if they're not involved, and give them a seat on his hanging jury.

My guess is, this comes with the territory of being a massage therapist. I'd imagine lots of guys get and pay for happy endings every night. Watson's ladies were all approached by a known scumbag lawyer and convinced to participate in this scheme. Should anything Watson might do be subject to legal attack because he's rich and famous? Guaranteed that if Watson was a long-haul truck driver, there wouldn't be any lawsuits or cases filed. No money in it.

 

[SJ76]

It’s fucked up he didn’t get more time away.

Dude should be in prison. Getting his sexual karma back to even.

What if he gets monkey pox and gives it to the entire league and we are forced to watch the WNBA playoffs? Da fak

 

[eaglesnut]

Yeah, he apologized like "I'm sorry that me whacking off in front of you made you uncomfortable. I'm sorry that trying to coerce you to touch my penis made you uncomfortable. I'm sorry that requesting you sign an NDA after refusing to give me a happy ending made you uncomfortable".

Yeah, he "apologized"...LOL

Imagine all the women that gave him a massage that didn't get the "special treatment." They feel bad about themselves now "like wtf deshaun I thought you were some mentally ill sexual freak and you just laid there the whole time"

There it is.

 

[eaglesnut]

well of course because she is racist!

(Did I do that right)

Lol my first thought about it, probably right too and that's where this story gets so weird in the current sociopolitical climate of "believe all women" and "believe all black people"

Just have to ignore it and get back in with the games in a couple weeks. Right now it's just hot because it's in the news cycle.

 

[Southieinnc]

If this goes to court and he is convicted, could he be suspended again?

Easy answer, yes! It also would depend on what he is convicted of. Would he do time with 24 priors?

 

[PDay8810]

Oh Boy

Clear to Partly Cloudy

 

[Stakesarehigh]

This is reason number #82,937 that the Browns are a cursed franchise. Haslam supported Myles Garrett publicly, after he assaulted Mason Rudolph and then lied about it being over a racial slur too.

So you know he lied? You were there?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Someone who knows the truth speaks!

Why I’m Refusing to Settle With NFL Star Deshaun Watson

The Cleveland Browns quarterback has settled with 23 of the 24 women who accused him of sexual misconduct. I am the lone holdout. Let me explain why.

I can at least appreciate she's willing to put her name to paper. I can respect that. He definitely needs rehab.

For sure...but the idea of a lawsuit is to get money. Also, was she among the many who contacted an attorney and not the police? Think if Watson offered 10 mil with no admission of wrongdoing she'd take it?

 

[Coily1]

So you know he lied? You were there?

No, but he was. He waited a week to tell anyone about it, and only did so after his suspension was announced. His previous apology made no mention of it. No Steelers or Browns players involved overhearing either Rudolph uttering any slur or Garrett reacting to one specifically. Postgame comments, even specifically about that fight, were devoid of any mention of it. The NFL investigated, interviewed players from both teams, on-field officials and said there was no evidence of it.

Garrett lost his cool, and tried to use the race card. He's a great player, but apparently also an asshole. Ndamukong Suh syndrome.

I get I'm a Browns homer but nothing will convince me Myles just snapped and started beating this dude for no reason.

But it's funny how that was such a thing but our collective attention span is so minimal that event rarely is brought up now.

And of course there was the same competition for who could be the most outraged critic on it all.

I can’t even watch the WNBA.




Since Griner isn’t playing.

There’s still plenty of dudes.

Expand on it further: has Mason Rudolph had a history with throwing around racial slurs? Has Myles Garrett ever lost his temper and gone berserk previously?

Yeah…

 

[Dude]

Hoping that this issue finds closure sometime. The litmus test will be if Watson can play well upon returning after sitting for 28 games. The SportsHoopla should die down once the season starts.

When had Garrett lost his temper and gone berserk previously? I mean, not long before this Garrett was in his car and a fan asked for a pic. Garrett said no and the fan punched him. Garrett took the high road.

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Both guilty parties , NFL and DW, got what they wanted.

That's true

 

[UnrealTerm04]

You might be right. That's close to 2yrs of rust he needs to dust off.

And learning a new offense and receivers. Plus, all eyes on him.
