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.

    • It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.
    • And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited 
    • Ehhh I agree the nfc is stronger this year but their really werent any truly dominant teams this year everyone is flawed, I think the narrative for the NFL this year will to try ahd force a Josh Allen SB win
