Mcnair would literally lose his team overnight and then be sued into oblivion by Watson.  No effing way he would do that as some (moronic) posters are suggesting

There is no way at all McNair is paying these women or responsible for this in some way.  The timing was suspicious I admit and the lawyer is sleezy but the more info that comes out the worse it looks for Watson.

Burnnchinn thinks he is and he has links (but refuses to post them) as evidence things like this happen

Calling all the accusers escorts that are lying just to make a payday does seem like an attack to me.

There are people's real lives involved here, including Watson's.

I can't understand anyone's top priority in a situation like that still being football.

I think people really need to step back and evaluate their priorities in life if you are looking to twist things and attack victims because you have some weird attachment to your football team. Deshaun Watson is not some untouchable infallible person because he is good as football, nor should that be the case. I think it might benefit everyone to really take a moment and think before you reply in this thread with some whack job conspiracy about the victims or belittle the potential assaults themselves. This is so much bigger than football, and really cements why powerful people get away with this kind of poo.

Good statement...

That’s life. Life ain’t fair. People have the right to feel however they want to feel. If his name wasn’t Deshaun Watson we wouldn’t even be talking about this. This is a football forum at the end of the day. Y’all don’t want to have the real bigger than football conversations so stop cherry picking.

Besides, literally all good lawyers have a bit of sleaziness to them... that’s kinda the point 

True, and a lot of successful ones are a--holes (I say this as someone who's met my fair share).

Heck, in some cases - like if you're going up against a rich, famous, super popular person - you might need somebody who's a little bit full of sh-t. A more sober, cautious attorney could suggest just settling for whatever you can get (or just dropping it entirely) whereas a bombastic a--hole might turn it into a personal crusade.

As to the attorney in this case, he's definitely not somebody I'd want to work with, but it's not my situation.

Again, some of the women involved in this story are state licensed massage therapists. As was pointed out, that's not an easy thing to become. And if it were true, that would be a pretty easy thing to figure out.

you can be a licensed massage therapist and also an escort

Find it hard to believe nine victims couldn't find a lawyer without a history of faking texts, then texts are supposedly the big evidence. Seems fishy and worthy of scrutiny. 

Yikes.

I can be skeptical of this one case in particular while also thinking sexual assault is a big deal. Does the fact this lawyer and the owner being neighbors, and the lawyer has a rep for fabricating texts not matter orrr? Bc it adds some "let's wait and see" context for me.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
