Hopefully Goodell responds with some good commissionerin' and makes the suspension two years. It is kind of crazy when you think about it...if this were three or five accusers, he'd be facing a lengthy suspension. This is 22. Of course, at least 21 are probably opportunists. He should just throw $1m at each one and be done with it.

Sounds like dude saw an instagram prostitute he liked and offered her dough for a massage, more dough when he wanted to bang her... that played out for several months with several prostitutes until he finally crossed paths with one who was strictly a massage therapist..she refused said cash and filed a suit... several of the previous whores followed suit.

There are 22 accusers and probably MANY others who want to avoid public humiliation/scrutiny. If 80% of these women are lying whores, Watson is still scum. He's going to be rewarded with a quarter of a billion dollars, though.

I'm sorry but any of the women that were freshly flown in to rub him up, I don't consider credible. Pay off the ones he propositioned for sex suspend him for six games and move on.

Of course if he'd gone to Atlanta, he should have been banned for life

Yeah, it's a woman's fault who is a professional when she doesn't expect an NFL QB to assault her.

If you don't know a person, don't have references and are flown first class across the country on the expectations of being paid thousands for rubbing on that person, I'm sorry but I'm going to question your credibility.

And their lawyer seems like a complete delusional scumbag.

Yes.

It looks like he started looking for out of town professional massage therapists when his name became a problem in Houston.

I'm thinking it would look good on your resume to have worked with an NFL QB.

How hard would it have been for a superstar athlete to find attractive women willing to sleep with him? Instead, he used his celebrity to prey on women and sexually assault them. Naturally, he assumed that the public wouldn't believe the dozens of unknown women over him. Unfortunately, he was absolutely right. Just like R Kelly, Cosby, and pretty much every other celebrity/politician.

You sound like a Biden voter( tgatvaint a good tbing) buddy.

That's an interesting take. As men, should we aspire to be rich and/or powerful enough to be able to sexually assault women and get away with it?

"I just continue to work...and become a better person, and just a better son. Like my mom has always taught me".

What he admitted is that some of the sessions ended in consensual sex. At the very least, He was flying masseurs' in to give him a happy ending or trying to seduce them to do so. If it was consensual and he didn't force anyone not interested as says, you still can't portray yourself as this great human being while ignoring your gross behavior.

What he should have said...." While I did not assault anyone or coerce anyone into a sexual situation, I realize that my behavior falls short of how I should represent myself, my family and the National Football League. I have been meeting with counselors to understand myself better and to work on myself. That will be ongoing. Finally, if I fell short and let anyone down, please know that I am truly sorry. I have learned from this and will be a better man going forward."

Additionally, he should have settled the civil cases before the press conference.

Interesting "falsely accused", or changed man pro athlete perps always mention "mom", and or the great influence their moms have been raising this upstanding angelic son who still idolizes mom.

I'm sure on advice from their lawyers to condition the minds of the viewers to kick-start the victim card angle.

Dionne & Courtney played some of the DeShaun Watson (20 Wonderlic score) press conference clips.
Not only did he mention "mom". But also "2 aunties", & of course "grandma".

And no one believes him for the most part, same with Rotlisberger or the Dodgers pitcher.

Florio fits in well with Bernstein. Approving Watson's guaranteed contract. Citing past player abuse by owners through collusion.

I think most NFL fans like contracts not guaranteed to motivate, or clean house if need be.

Florio's a horrible guest.

Fuck the NFL. The one good thing that will come out of the Watson situation is guaranteed money.


Now if Goodell is smart, he drags his feet on a Watson Punishment until year 2 of the deal. If there ever is a punishment.

He was looking for easier ways to sexually assault women.

USA TODAY Sports recently reported that a Houston spa owner testified in a pretrial deposition in May that Watson gave her $5,000 in November 2020, and the reason for it was because he was a “nice guy” and wanted to help her buy equipment for her spa. At least three of the plaintiffs suing Watson worked for this spa owner or were otherwise associated with her, including the newest plaintiff, whose lawsuit said this spa owner, Dionne Louis, facilitated massages for Watson as a favored client.

“She asked him to help out her business and he did, and that’s what the $5,000 was,” Hardin said. “It didn’t’ have anything to do with all the ulterior suggestions.”

Graham said Watson was active in the community after the death of a Black man, George Floyd, under the knee of a white police officer in Minnesota on May 25, 2020.

“He was very inspired to help Black businesses,” she said. “That is one example of the numerous contributions he made to various Black businesses around Houston.”

Florio's a clown. He threw a hissy fit before the draft about posting a Round One projection. If you hate what you cover quit, assclown.

66 women in 17 months.
