Hapless Bills Fan

Just a note once again, that the lawsuits are not about businesses such as “Orchids of Asia” or the women who work there. They’re about massage therapists recommended by Texans personnel in 2 cases, someone Watson flew in from another city, a massage therapist who agreed to give him a massage in her home, another in an office building. One is a licensed aesthetician, meaning someone who likely works in a spa business that provides other esthetic services like facials, waxing or sugaring and so forth. These are not normally places where “happy endings” are offered or expected. You may just be commenting in general but thought it was worth clarifying.

You know, it’s always helpful before opining to actually, IDK, read some of the stuff on the case? There’s nothing in the lawsuits about asking. That doesn’t mean what’s in the lawsuits happened, it just means your comments are irrelevant to what has been alleged.

Jeebus, Man, what crawled up your nose? It’s an appreciation thread. A chance for fans to express positive memories about Bitcoin Barkley. Why is that a problem for you? If you don’t have any positive memories and don’t want to express appreciation, Move Along! I could be mistaken, but I believe Tyrod Taylor had a thread like this when he was traded I’m not exactly sure what your point is, except that opportunity to push the narrative that Taylor was somehow unfairly treated and under-appreciated seems to excite you.

I know there are "Happy Ending"-type massage parlors in every town, but first lawsuits at least doesn't sound like people who are part of that type of massage parlor. There are also a lot of fancy spas who give massages as part of their services, and massage businesses which are 100% about a massage, nothing else. They aren't sleazy, they don't employ women whose immigration status is in question. Their employees are women and men, and their clients are women and men. I have had regular massages at this type of spa or massage business. In fact, I'm sitting on a gift certificate for one that went out of business this past year 😥. I have specifically asked for extra attention to specific glute areas as I have a problem with piriformis syndrome, and deep massage/heat to those specific areas help. I ask for extra time in the room after the massage so that I can stretch afterwards. I also know people whose friends or relatives work in these businesses. They would object strongly to being called a "masseuse" - they are "massage therapists". Most are licensed or credentialed in one way or another to show that they've been trained and know their stuff. It is NOT "normal customer" behavior to initiate sexual behavior or to expose the genitals. That's not to say that it doesn't happen, either by accident or intent, with consent or without, but it's not "normal customer behavior" with a massage therapist/licensed aesthetician, either. But as far as the behavior described in the first lawsuit, I think most female massage therapists have probably encountered it because of the confusion between "rub and tug" "happy ending" type parlors and spa-type massage businesses, and the first time, to re-cover the sausage, the second to say "I'm ending the massage now, please leave" is as far as it would usually go.

Is he? He doesn't show up on the injury report for this season or last: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/sea/2020_injuries.htm https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/sea/2019_injuries.htm Pro-football-reference usually lists everyone who had an injury designation for a game, though I have found mistakes from time to time. AFAIK he spent the first 5 games of 2019 on the practice squad then was active for every game week 6-17. After week 7, he played every game. He was pushed down the depth chart behind Olsen and Dissly in 2020. He seems to have been active for every game in 2020 and played ST. Clearly the SeaSnakes thought they needed an upgrade or they wouldn't have pushed to sign Olsen, but they also felt they were a team that was gonna contend for a Championship so you can't blame them for thinking a guy with 3 1000-yd seasons in his past might be part of the improvements to take them there, not to mention a good mentor to raise the level of the younger guys.

You need to check out his 2019 video. But I'm sure he got that extra pop to be playing against the team led by his former Wyo teammate.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the Bills faced that much zone coverage last year or early in the season this past season. I think the word on Josh Allen last year was "man up and bring the house" because he struggled to effectively throw deep and he wouldn't make those anticipation throws to Beasley or Brown. Beas said in preseason that Josh was making throws he wouldn't try last year. The transition about game 4 was that teams realized "That was then, This is Now" and if they tried it, Josh would carve them up like the T-day turkey - and he did it to the Rams and the Raiders.

Actually she couldn't because neither rape nor consensual sex are part of the original lawsuit as far as has been released. It's "indecent conduct", which I had no idea was something one could complain about 🤷‍♂️ https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/deshaun-watson-lawsuit-details/285-42abe4a4-44a9-4acc-b84b-1f18579dff15 I could actually see this being consistent with Watson's claim that he's always treated women with respect (in his world view, he non-verbally tried to initiate sexual behavior, the woman non-verbally declined, he tried again, the woman said "massage is over, get dressed and leave", he got dressed and left. I can also see where a professional massage therapist would have a different viewpoint about it, but also why she wouldn't consider it a criminal matter or go to police. More like "the guy is a jerk, don't book him again, tell my friends" I'm unclear on Texas legal definitions but the third lawsuit is the one that alleges forced sex (so far):

From the parts I heard, I thought Florio did a really nice job of staying neutral but also staying factual such as pointing out that the lawyer was recruiting plaintiffs in his first Insta post and also that asking to have attention to the glutes isn't exactly a red flag for an athlete, since you know, they get sore there. I will say this. From what little I know, mostly following athletes on Insta and a bit of contact with former athletes at parties and such, they tend to have "their guys" (or gals) who provide regular services. Hunting down services and making arrangements consumes scarce time. So they tend to find barbers and chefs and trainers and PTs and massage therapists they like, and then stick with them - going so far as to fly them in for haircuts if they change teams. It's actually like most people do, but more so since most of us are more like $23 for a haircut (not $213 or $2113 plus a plane ticket and a taxi from the airport). There was an article about Cog when he was in Buffalo, he had a woman come to his apartment regularly on Tuesday to give him a massage. Now Cog was a known Pig with women, but I'd bet money he treated that woman with the utmost respect 100% of the time, because he wanted her continued services. So to me, it's kinda weird that apparently Watson set up massages with so many different massage therapists. Either he was extraordinarily picky and just couldn't find the right therapist, or they were each "One and Done" with doing business with him, which doesn't usually happen when there's nothing "off" taking place.

ESPN article I guess that doesn't stop the next contact from being by Insta DM?

You said the season, but to me the biggest memory will probably be the sideline ropes from Allen to Davis in the 2nd Q of the Colts game. We're pinned deep on our 4 yd line, the Colts have taken a 10-7 lead, and we punted on the last 2 possessions starting from our 6 yd line and our 11 yd line, it's 2nd and 10, and I'm starting to have 1-n-done flashbacks. Diggs is being covered like a blanket, Brown is neutralized, and Beas is clearly hampered. BAM 37 yd rope to Davis down the right sideline. Colts players busy waving it off on the sideline while the Bills move up to the new LOS - they knew. 8 plays later, TD

He's definitely "open when covered", but I think he's more of a downfield threat than you think. He was pulling in 13.9 ypc with San Francisco, and 76% of that was YBC. That took an immediate jump from 12.2 when he moved from DEN to SF, and a fall to 11.9 last year. The fact that he had The Ghost of Drew Brees throwing to him last year may be more of a factor than his age was. I guess we'll see. But the fact that Diggs can threaten to break downfield is very helpful to his ability to shed DBs like water, so I hope Sanders still has this.

I'm impressed ...I guess...that you're sufficient of a fan to have payed such careful attention to a TE playing on another team, especially one who started 2019 on the practice squad and 2020 buried on the depth chart/ST, so as to have a long duration of opinion on him. Unlike Lee Smith, Hollister can actually run routes and cut and separate and stuff. He can also one-hand the ball, which I'm not sure whether or not Lee Smith could, but DiMarco couldn't.

I suspect that a key difference for Haack may have been the guarantees. We'll see how much of that is guaranteed.

This one? It musta stung for Brown for the Bills to say "we love you, thanks for all you've done, we're going for an upgrade" but I can see a lot of routes in that film where I believe Brown would have been taken out of the play while Sanders brushes the DB off like a pesky fly

Is that what the hold-up is? But the renegotiation for Matakevich hasn't gone through either. Kinda looks like they're gonna need to

I was thinking a different body part but yeah

Thats all I care about. Just Win Baby

Cover1 piece on Sanders dropped worth a watch

As of last season, the disparity is not so much:

And furthermore, NOOOOO

It was reported on, at least I knew he'd injured his ankle. But he was listed as "full" in practice most of the next week, though you're right, he didn't play much against Indy. But the week before Baltimore, Jerry Hughes said Isaiah McKenzie played Lamar Jackson on the Scout Team and it really helped them to have someone who was as fast or maybe faster back there during the week - so his ankle was evidently good enough for that. I think you kind of put your finger on his Achilles Heel though, which is that "sticky" physical coverage (to use the euphemism) can take him away. I really like the guy though and wish we could bring him back, but I would bet it would be on the same deal Hollister just got, and if McKenzie can get more then for his family and his future he should take it. Look at the Lil' guy though. He's like a freakin' anatomy lesson in shorts, and those arms, too. Tell @Sherlock Holmes don't click here!

I was thinking backdrop?

Did this guy gear up for a photo already while he was in Buffalo for a physical/signing, or did he Photoshop this? Either way, LETSGOOOOOOOOOO! https://www.instagram.com/p/CMm0s9wDTWE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Hey. We just signed two guys who have never, ever been a Panther.
