Per Adam Schefter, “In speaking to some teams, I don’t think this is going to deter anyone’s interest in trading for Deshaun Watson”

Revenge flicks? really? I have to get away. Too many SJWs around here. Welcome to 2021. 

Pretty sure nobody's gonna call me an SJW 😄

What I am is somebody who's known real women that have been in this situation. And sad to say this included women that I loved.

The reality is it's nowhere near as simple as we would like it to be.

He's looked bad all on his own accord the past two months. Now the guy who did it is getting trashed in the media. And he's neighbors with the lawyer representing the women, with a history of faking texts.

Some of yall wanna believe DW is guilty when there's a motive for McNair to try and trash him, along with weird coincidences that force you to ask that question. McNair is as suspect as anyone 

He wouldnt tank his value out of spite and potentially losing his team.  Jesus Christ dude ease off the meth

I mean they did trade one of the best WRs in football and a 4th rounder for an RB, so.... everyone in that organization might be on meth.

That isn't unusual.  Again, victims of sexual assault typically don't want it to be known by a lot of people.  That is why it takes them so long to report.  It is also why it is false whenever someone suggests that lying about rape or sexual assault is something that happens a lot.  It is not something that happens a lot.  Studies suggest it happens about 2%-10% of the time, and even that number could be inflated because of the amount of rape accusations that are deemed as false simply due to a lack of sufficient evidence.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/03/health/sexual-assault-false-reports/index.html

I want to reiterate that I am not saying Watson is guilty and I am not making any matter of fact statements in regard to innocent or guilt.  But I want people to be held accountable for their opinion and immediately accusing the potential victims of BSing or lying helps contribute to a very toxic culture.  We need to step-back and wait it out.  There are a lot of reasons why a side would want to reach a settlement before taking it to civil court.

And that is also why it isn't as simple as, "well, if Watson is guilty, why didn't he take the settlement?"  You could just as easily as, "why did Watson do it in the first place?"  Watson, if the allegations are true, probably does not view his behavior as being bad.  Much like most offenders.

Asking for 100k from someone that makes millions I’m sorry that is not common. If this happened they knew who in the hell he was. 100k lol yeah ok, sorry but we’re going to disagree on this all day

How is seeking a settlement before going to court and/or making the lawsuit public not common?

Technically, we only have Watson's word that this happened. So unless he's got actual evidence, this is just as much hearsay as the statements made by the womens' attorney.

Can you absolutely guarantee that Watson is telling the truth?

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      It is entirely possible to defend your point without calling a bunch of people "tards".  Bryce Young sucks.  The vast majority of football fans acknowledge and accept this, especially on this site despite the very few who may argue otherwise, and even then, I find it is more in a "cut him some slack" kind of way and not a "he's the future of the team" kind of way. At the end of the day, if you look hard enough on the Internet, you are always going to find takes that drastically differ from what you perceive to be the truth.   And nobody who's football opinion is worth listening to has argued Bryce Young is the MVP.  Again, that is an example of you looking way too hard on Twitter, assuming that is something you have actually even read.

      It works very well it’s just frustrating because it can win enough games to keep those three coaches employed even when they don’t innovate or ever make a decision that doesn’t come from a chart. If they weren’t so robotic in their decision making they’d be in the top tier of NFL coaches.
