Get StartedI guess it's true everyone has a price.
The Texans owner is a huge asshole, and Watson more-or-less publicly called him (and his now-deceased father) out for being openly racist and shitty, and asked for a trade. They did not like eachother (link).
The attorney who brought these charges (Tony Buzbee) is a scumbag, and is neighbor's with the Texans owner. If you want any indication of the type of guy Tony Buzbee is, read this, this, or this. When the 29-year-old whore he was "dating" was arrested at his house for disorderly conduct, he was married (still is, apparently...) and had 4 kids. He also ran for mayor of Houston and got absolutely trounced, and has a DUI or two.
Grand juries twice refused to indict Deshaun Watson over any of these allegations... what more needs to be said?
The Browns were smart to pick him up; he's a great QB. I hope they go far.
so you think Buzbee manufactured 26 sexual assault allegations that weren't true so he could charge Watson???
Man, for a nothing burger this story sure has legs.
I guess because there are hookers involved.
Texans have one post season win with Deshawn Watson.
Cleveland sucks more than any team that isn?t the Lions.
Why does anybody give a shit?
What am I missing?
What else is there to talk about?
What else is there to talk about?
6 game suspension. 24 quarters of football...one quarter for every sexual assault.
NFL is appealing the 6 game suspension. My guess is they want a year, which in my mind, isn't enough
Alleged sexual assault. Wasn?t enough to charge him of a crime and a judge heard both sides to hand down the punishment.
I wish the NFL would come at the white owners the same way they do the black player. Snider and Kraft are looking pretty privileged right now. Big Ben and Manning also look like they cashed in on the privilege card.
24 assaults compared to Kraft paying for a hand job. Always with the race card.
Trevor Bauer...that poor black guy :lmao:
Watson?s allegations were alleged, Kraft caught on camera. Big difference buddy.
Bauer had messages and pictures from the victim. Watson has zero of that against him. It?s he said, she said. And a good amount of the she said, welcomed Mr. Watson for return visits. Do you honestly think someone is going to be sexually assaulted, not report it, and welcome the assaulting to book another visit?
well, there wasn't enough evidence to charge Bauer either. Watson paid off all of his victims...an innocent man doesn't do that.
Watson didn?t have the evidence against him for an inditement. Went before a judge for the suspension hearing. Do you want the courts and law to do the job correctly or just convict off he said, she said?
She came to the conclusion that sexual misconduct did happen (so she found the allegations to be credible), she found that his conduct was detrimental to the league, but only felt a 6 game suspension was appropriate???
She didn't do her job
