Tony Buzbee is a shady ass lawyer but he’s rich for a reason. He knows how to reel in the big fish. He sued BP for Deepwater Horizon and now has his sights on the NFL. Watson is just the bait.

The sky is blue.
Water is wet.
Lawyers, especially civil litigators, are greedy.

All surprising stuff.

I don't necessarily disagree with the general sentiment of the OP, but as info comes out it could be that the Texans helped try and sweep this under the rug and tried to make it go away. I'm not saying any other team would have done anything differently, but I am saying that when you get caught doing so there are potential consequences.

Don’t disagree at all. But Buzbee played this well so far. NFL gets added soon.

Let's stop acting like this is a cash grab, this is guy that used women for his benefit. Most of the time, the only time you can get any kind of justice is through civil court.

So why didn’t they speak up years ago? This definitely has a lot to do with money whether you want to believe it or not. Not say Watson isn’t a disgusting pig but we do know quite of these women actually had sex with Watson. Nowadays, everything is about money.

You Browns fan are funny, got to wear those rose colored glasses, no matter the circumstance. You can relax a little, he hasn't played a down for you yet.

Years ago? They did, the incidents happened in 2020, the lawsuits started in 2021

You ever hear of a class action lawsuit?

It can be both a meritorious lawsuit from the perspective of the abused women--and I believe them--and a cash grab by the lawyer who decided to take on their cases. That's not mutually exclusive.

There's no way to describe Watson's actions at this point as anything but predatory, and frankly super weird.

Maybe some of these masseuse women are basically escorts, but Watson was picking them on Instagram and didn't seem to know or care who was a real masseuse and a ho.

This is a guy who could have gotten laid in so many ways, and he went through all this effort? It's pathological frankly.

I think the commissioner exemption list is dumb as hell, but if Watson does not qualify then nothing does.

I see goodell using this and then suspending him next year after the way the salary structure of the contract was done

he may be a shady lawyer but it is coming out that the Texans aided and abetted Watson so they do bear responsibility

The Texans provided him the space in a club or whatever the isolated place was at so he could do his "massages". Did they pay for the rooms? Smh. The Texans knew what they did and what they really are. It's too bad they found the village idiot in the Browns and they took advantage of a desperate franchise.

If the Texans paid for any of this, they will be hit hard on cap violations.
