NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

thanks - again - for proving my point.

Keep saying you agree with me without actually saying you agree with me.

The NFL’s code of conduct is not the same as our legal code.

 

[Wamu]

No idea. Never been sure about that one.

Thanks for the answer.

He clearly has violated the NFL code of conduct. I don’t think it’s at all equitable that a guy loses a year for betting on an app while he isn’t playing the game and another guy gets 6 games for 40+ accusations of sexual assault.

haha....

deflection is utilized when a person has no real defense of the real subject at hand so the next best thing is to say “look at this thing deemed not as bad in my eyes.”

 

[dtgold88]

My agenda: women get screwed by our system when it comes to them getting recompense and justice when they’re the victim of a sexual assault.

Keep saying you agree with me without actually saying you agree with me.

you DEFINITELY DO NOT need physical evidence for a grand jury. Do you realize how low the bar is for a grand jury to bring a misdemeanor charge? apparently not.

I am well aware. It doesn’t change the statistics on successful prosecution. None of these assaults came with a witness that saw the assault take place.

again- the NFL only brought 5 cases to Judge Robinson- and one of those cases, during the process, was caste in doubt when the child of the accuser said the mom totally changed her story.

Holy shit the number of women that have accused Watson of misconduct has jumped from 20-something to 40+? Damn, when did that happen?

Watson's such a scumbag.

 

[dtgold88]

Sexual assault is an act in which one intentionally sexually touches another person without that person's consent, or coerces or physically forces a person to engage in a sexual act against their will.

Did you hear any of the women say that Watson touched them without consent. Nope unless I missed something.

Is he a sicko and pervert? Absolutely. Mental abuse or harm? Definitely a possibility too. I didn't hear about assault in the cases presented.

In fact, in the case the NFL presented to acts of coercion or force were mentioned.

And, yes, he has issues and needs help. No question.

If I go to your daughter’s work and I expose myself and tell her that in order for her to do her job she has to massage my balls and taint you’re saying she hasn’t been sexually assaulted?

Not a deflection at all. It puts the NFL’s code of conduct directly under the microscope for a comparison.

Congrats! You’re finally there. I now officially have an anti/Browns agenda. I hope the lake catches on fire again and that God continues to hate Browns fan as they continue to experience epic failure after epic failure. Jesus is coming…

 

[trojanfan12]

You sure? Ben Roethlisburger still gets called a rapist in the public sphere. He will never shake this situation. It’s what defines him going forward.

Meh, and some folks still call Kobe a rapist...but as with Roethlisberger, it's mainly just trolls trying to piss someone off. It is still part of the story of both of their careers. But hardly defines either of them.

not trying to be a dick and I totally understand your emtional response.

I gotta say- its just so many things though that do not add up to me.

why did the NFL only interview 12 accusers and only bring 5 cases and then throw 1 of those cases out? why did a grand jury not even bring a misdeameanor charge

i think Watson is a really weird scummy guy- if I had a daughter Id want to keep him FAR AWAY....but I think a lot of people make snap judgments without looking hard at what has actually come out of the investigation.

Finding a worse situation to this situation you called deflection, but it's fine for you to find a lesser situation.

You are on top of your game today.

You NOW have an agenda? you've had an agenda this entire time so...OK?

and for sure if you should ever have a daughter let her know in any situation like this where she feels uncomfortable and is able to leave the area then leave.
