Rigotz Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 On 7/3/2022 at 8:08 AM, Mr. WEO said: Kraft received no penalty, so.....probably not. And 6 games suspension doesn't sound like non-suspension option. Any penalty she hands down can be appealed by either side.....to Goodell. Am I the only person who thinks the comparisons to Kraft and Kraft's punishment are a little ridiculous? Robert Kraft went to a rub and tug, where they sell sex from sex workers, and he bought himself some sex. Deshaun Watson called up massage therapists, not sex workers, and [allegedly] forced himself upon them. That is not the same thing. 3 1 1 1 Quote

Watson is accused of forcing himself on dozens of women; Kraft had consensual sex with one woman, for money. Quote

I believe Watson’s case is more along the lines of indecent exposure. Both incidents deserved punishment by the NFL. Only problem is there’s literally no evidence for the NFL to review in the Kraft case. So unless one of the women come out and say Kraft paid them for sex then there really isn’t anything the NFL could do. But it doesn’t look good for the NFL and they know it. Its not about them deserving equal punishment. Edited July 7, 2022 by Buffalo_Stampede Quote

I think some of the comparison originates from the fact that Kraft was initially charged for a sex-related crime but then charges were dropped; he also made a public apology. So the question is did he violate the league’s rules? And Watson’s situation is unique so there’s really no good comparison, but the Kraft case comes closest in a lot of people’s minds. But clearly, they are not the same thing. Quote

That's what it seems like you're saying. Quote

The point is not that what they did was equivalent: it's that Kraft didn't face any discipline under the PCP. Quote

I predicted a while ago the NFL will hand out a year suspension to cover themselves. The NFLPA will appeal and reduce the suspension to 8 games. I saw something yesterday predicting the exact same thing. 1 Quote

I wonder how that can happen if person was unwilling? I mean that person would have to be very close in plain view and know what is happening since it usually takes a few minutes. One would think the unwilling participant would know how the stroking ends at some point and would have left the situation when it first began instead of being in range to receive a money shot? Well, I guess unless unwilling person was drugged and knocked out. But that's about it I would think? Otherwise can't see another logical way anyone close in range to unknowingly/unwillingly get baby gravy sprayed? Edited July 7, 2022 by Sheneneh Jenkins 1 Quote

He’s simply a Grade A creep who threw his junk in a bunch of ladies’ faces who only wanted to get paid to give a massage. Let’s not make this a “blame the media” situation. Forcrissake. 1 1 Quote

aristocrat Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 The issue with these situations is they can essentially he said she said if the guy is careful. The nfl can open themselves to a lawsuit I’d imagine if they present info that can’t be proven. We all know he’s a pos but they can’t prove it outright it seems Quote
