He does appear to be a serial sex offender and as such he's not gonna stop offending. I expect he will be caught and then any guaranteed money he manages to actually get will be funneled to his victims in huge chunks. I'd hope any massage therapist in Cleveland are smart enough to insist on video recording his massage sessions with the video tape given to him at end of session if nothing untoward occurs. If he does persist in his acts then the tape is evidence against him. If he's as innocent as he claims he would have no objections to this. In fact an innocent man might actually insist on taping such sessions to protect against any false accusations of similar behavior going forward. If he is only after massage legitimately then why doesn't he get some male masseur instead. Something tells me the Browns will insist a guy named Big Mike gives him a massage on team facilities with cameras moving forward. Lol. Quote

Not the people affected by it and/or paying them their salary. Quote

It makes me think this is all much much worse then we know and I feel like the combination of Watson's lawyers and the league are doing their best to mitigate this as much as possible. And the victims of this POS watch him sign a 250 million dollar contract as it plays out. Unconscionable. Knew he was the minute he set the Texans on fire because he didn't get to name the GM. Not a QB coach or OC. The freaking GM. SCUMBAG. 3 Quote

"Part of the decision." Who said? What did they tell him? Based on Watson's intricate knowledge of front office personnel? The Texans are morons for even considering his 2 cents. And Watson is a an entitled baby to think he should be. Just ask to be traded if you're done with the franchise at 24 yo because you know how this all works and got it figured out. Prick. Quote

It's crazy how many claim to have intricate knowledge of the inner workings of random franchises, and then make baseless claims based on that. Quote

I'd like to see more evidence Watson isn't before I change my mind. I have no idea what he is. Teammates and people around him say he's great. Obviously 20 some women say he's not. I imagine it's somewhere in between, but who knows. 2 grand juries decided not to indict, so there isn't much evidence, but that also doesn't mean he's innocent. My biggest hold up on the whole thing is that the Plaintiffs' lawyer is also the lawyer for the Texans' owner, and this all started once Watson wanted traded. Obviously I have no idea if any of it is true or not either way though. Quote

It wasn't just that. They consistently failed to invest in the o-line. They traded Hopkins for peanuts because he couldn't get along with the head coach. They managed the cap terribly. Basically, they did the exact opposite of what Beane provided for Josh. Imagine if Beane failed to significantly upgrade the 2018 o-line and traded away Diggs for a washed up running back. I'd want out too as I would want to survive for a third contract. Quote

Agreed......but its just not his lane. I wouldn't want Josh anywhere near a GM decision. Personnel. Coaches - OC, QB....absolutely. GM is a completely different animal. And, he signed his extension after the Nuke trade. Which, we also don't really know what happened but he's currently suspended for PEDs. Quote

But none of the "he shouldn't be involved in those decisions" comments matter if they promised him he would be. You don't promise people one thing and then ignore them when the time comes. Businesses that do that tend to lose a lot of employees. Edited June 1, 2022 by cle23 Quote

If the Texans reneged on their promise to involve him in hiring a new GM and head coach then I don't have a problem with requesting a trade. If they didn't specifically promise him that then that's shady on Watson's part. Not as shady as the sexual allegations though of course. Quote
LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 So 23 different women either have personal vendettas or are just trying to cash in on a rich athlete. Funny no other NFL player currently is being sued by 23 women(Soon to be 24). Just give him an outright ban and be done with it. Tell him he can apply for reinstatement after two years. Then deny his reinstatement request every time he tries. If he does play again the opposing crowd's reactions, when playing on the road, will be interesting. Quote

It was the HC decision he was promised input into - by Cal McNair - as early as November of the season where Billy O had been canned. And I would 100% want to Bills to consider Josh's input on a) whether to move on from McDermott and b) who to replace him with if (and I hope it doesn't) that time comes. In the NFL in 2022 if you are not doing it that way you are doing it wrong. Edited June 1, 2022 by GunnerBill Quote

I mean, even if he is only HALF guilty (in frequency or severity) of what he's been accused of...he's a serial offender who should be expelled from the NFL. As a public we don't yet have access to enough admissible evidence to make any kind of truly informed determination beyond initial suspicions or dismissals. Of course you're allowed to have leanings. How could you not? 1 1 Quote

I love this provision as a safeguard against accusations that are eventually found to be demonstrably false or somehow fraudulent on the whole. Of course we must not abide an athlete's immense privilege unjustly multiplying his or her fortunes and opportunities when the rest of us would more likely be terminated and in fact black balled. Nevertheless, we must at least acknowledge even the fractional likelihood of eventual exoneration in the face of such persuasive claims. Quote

Well if irrefutable evidence is uncovered of his guilt then I hope he has fun when his new cell mates in prison decide they will be happy to poke about his anus. Let him be victimized in similar fashion. Bubba can ask him why he's crying after their massage session is over. Edited June 1, 2022 by AuntieEm Quote
YoloinOhio Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 11 hours ago, Calidiehard said: The NFL league officials and Roger Goodell are an absolute joke if they allow him to play and make that money. It is an independent judge who will make the determination of whether Watson violated the personal conduct policy, and then goodell will set the suspension. Public perception is everything to the league and its conduct policies. The HBO feature was bad as is the continued stuff that keeps coming with additional accusers and details of his alleged conduct. Hardin has been reactionary the whole time and sounds desperate in his statements, and makes it sound like he doesn’t respect the women which is even worse from that side. Goodell took a lot of heat for how he handled the ray Rice situation so needs to be careful. If Watson is out there playing while the public perception is still that he’s a lying serial sexual predator, he knows he could lose advertisers, etc. and the female fan base he’s tried so hard to build. 1 1 Quote
