Go on record. Who still wants Watson?

Yeah, it's not just "being naked". Three different women have accused him of forcing them to perform oral sex.

Also worth remembering that if you expose yourself in areas where you're not supposed to or where it's unwanted, that's enough to get you arrested.

Do you believe that 3/3 women who have accused him of forcing them to perform oral sex on him were all equally unwilling to leave and immediately contact law enforcement? 
 

That just doesn’t add up to me.

We're not really gonna have another one of these "I don't believe women if they don't handle it the way I think they ought to" discussions are we?

Good Lord 🙄

Well, if you don’t want to then that’s your choice. I respect that female victims may not always handle things in the most logically sound manner. It would be very unfair to judge one woman for her handling of a traumatic situation like that. 
 

But it’s also unfair to Watson to ignore that 3 women have accused him of forced oral sex, and all 3 of them basically had the same response- wait. 
 

I don’t know what Watson did, I wasn’t there, but I think it’s fair to question these strange coincidences. You don’t find it at all odd that all 3 of 3 women who were forced to perform oral sex, against their will, didn’t feel so traumatized to report it to some authority immediately? Does questioning this fact make me insensitive? I don’t think that this fact alone would absolve Watson of his patterns of questionable behavior. I think it’s fair to try to determine the credibility of the accusations as a whole.

I'll tell you the same thing I've told others.

If you know someone who's actually been a victim of something like this, you might understand how difficult it is for women, even in cases where the person in question isn't rich or famous.

Attitudes like "well why didn't you do this like I think you should have" are one of the biggest factors that help make it tougher for victims to get justice.

No.

There's people with 1/1000th of the influence and power Watson holds and their victims are still scared to speak up.

This is a very common thing amongst sexual assault/abuse victims no matter the gender.

That's why these claims usually come out in droves.

I do know someone very personally who was sexually abused. She went right to her loved ones, and they took it straight to the police. So don’t assume I have no place to speak. 
 

you are assuming the allegations are truthful. I prefer assume that they may or may not be. 
 

You are also speaking logically from the standpoint of a singular victims response mechanism. I think it’s unwise to ignore the greater pattern. 
 

I have not read of a single incident where Watson had threatened one of his alleged victims. You may be more versed in each allegation, so I invite you to correct me if there were threats involved, which would play a huge factor. The presence of a threat or the absence of one would not be the end all to explain the reason most stayed silent, but that would certainly go a long way to explain it. 
 

Is it fair to say it’s possible that maybe some sexual contact did happen, and when one accusation came out, others saw that they had an opportunity to jump on the money train? Is it possible each allegation was coached by the one constant in all of them- the sleazy attorney?

You know someone. Cool.

Many of us on here know several who, for varying reasons, did not go to police. In fact, the majority of women don't. 

As to the accusers, many of them also reported the stories to friends and loved ones. That includes the SI accuser whose story was checked out by the reporter who wrote it.

All have said they feared reprisal, and some reported that Watson made veiled (or not so veiled) threats. If you aren't aware of this, like you weren't aware of other details, I'm guessing you haven't read the cases.

You're apparently also unaware that not all of the cases are represented by the same lawyer. The SI accuser has different counsel.

Bottom Line: The whole "bunch of b-tches looking for money" rationalization is pretty embarrassing, and again a big reason why a lot of women don't come forward in cases like this.

Is it possible DW sexually harassed and or assaulted all the women? Yes

Is it possible DW sexually harassed and or assaulted some of the women? Yes

Is it possible all the women are lying and or exaggerating the story looking for a payday? Yes

Right now, no one knows for sure what actually happened except DW and the women making these claims.

This is exactly my point. I’m just pointing things that seem strange to me. 
 

For all my latest focus on the lack of an actual police report, I also find it odd that Watson has the ire of so many women. Patterns of behavior are telling. 1 accuser with no substance for evidence is one thing. 30 is entirely another. Watson could be very good at grooming the possible victims to accept his behavior.

    • With Horn I would gladly over pay... via the TAG.   I would take his 5th year option and TAG and TAG again. Dude is a monster but I dont want to pay for a monster with as few starts as he has. 
    • If Bryce plays like last year, we will be picking high and can move on.  But I am curious to see how people on here are when he sees success and becomes the guy, if he does. It's almost like people want him to fail. He's got that Panther jersey on and a good attitude. I am rooting for him, as you should.  Last year the coaching, OL, and weapons were abysmal, and it put him in a tough spot. He did not play well either, but we saw glimpses, and its a full team sport. I choose to go into this year excited under a fresh new regime and a top prospect from 365 days ago at the helm with new OL and weapons. Whatever happens, happens. Let's have some fun with it. 
    • Maybe. You know he wanted that OC gig each time, I believe the last time they even stated he interviewed for the role. This was during the whole youth movement that mccvay started as well.  Honestly I was hoping Seattle would have cut ties with pete, he would have been great here in a top mentor role. I don't think its talked about enough, they did Pete wrong. He made them a great NFL team for the first time in their history and gave them a SB. He's still in great shape by all reports and they just decided to go young. They even removed most of his pictures and quotes in the building. Sorta like what the pats did to bill, but waay worse.  I guess I have too much loyalty for the new times, no chance either should been to out for retirement..
