Watsons Lawyer Came With Receipts

"These range from being misleading, to fraudulent, to slanderous," the document says. "Importantly, only two of the twenty-two lawsuits allege that Mr. Watson forced any type of sexual activity -- an allegation Mr. Watson again vehemently denies."

after eight of the plaintiffs massaged Watson, each "bragged about, praised, and were excited about massaging Mr. Watson." The document also says seven plaintiffs "willingly worked or offered to work with Mr. Watson after their alleged incidents," three plaintiffs "lied about the number of sessions they actually had" with Watson, three plaintiffs "lied about their alleged trauma and resulting harm" and five plaintiffs "told others they wanted to get money out of" Watson.

As always the truth is always somewhere in the middle...

I’m not going to fault the Panthers or any team for waiting until this all played out. I said it when this all started, moving ahead with Watson sent a message that the franchise simply didn’t care if he did or didn’t do the things he was accused of. 

The response raises some very questionable conduct on the behalf of the accusers. But if there was actual misconduct their actions shouldn’t minimize, what others may have went through. 

this is a crazy world we live in, but these matters deserve the attention and legitimate investigation on both sides.

To be fair... a handful may be lying, just like some may be telling the truth. Assaulting even one of them is one too many.

That said, the defense of "Defendants lied about their trauma because they went back to work" is a pretty shitty fuging defense to use. 

As from day 1, ill wait for all of it to play out before making judgement, something id urge all of you.

These cases are super delicate. It's best to just reserve ones opinion until the facts have been brought in. 

 

I for one am going to wait for this to be played out. 

There will never be anything close to a resolution in a case like this. It's going to be 98% he said/she said with each side spiking the football over every minute piece of actual factual evidence they can produce to spin in a way as to support their side of the story. It's going to be a mess and that's why we moved on from what was basically our plan A, B, and C. We were all in on Watson.

sexual assault always comes down to he said, she said because most of the time it lacks physical evidence. this group is only as strong as their weakest link because if one of the lied. they are just going to poke at her, as if the entire group is nothing but liars. 

the whole thing stinks and even if Watson is innocent, he has huge judgement issue.

    • The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at. 
    • If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep
    • I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
