What I can’t stand is the players association willingness to defend this scumbag. I guess they have to but it’s still gross and not a good look. 

Yeah the NFLPA going from an idea of unionizing and protecting players health and whatever to better call saul defense lawyers is pretty lame. They should have their own internal guidelines of how to handle misconduct before it even gets to this level of representing guys. At least like "this is out of our bounds, good luck explaining your weird personal poo in court"

When the OP isn't bright enough to realize the appeal is to make the suspension LONGER lol.

Yeah I comprehended that part just fine. My question is in regards to the appeal possible allowing Watson to play while until its resolution. 

[TrevorLaurenceTime22]

 ^^^^ Pretty sure the Browns would clamp on that and advise him to sit a RB isn't the same as a QB and delaying your suspension until the playoffs wouldn't be smart.

What an absolute joke of a suspension for an all pro experienced veteran of a predator. Probably already planning his next attempt at forcing a massage with a happy ending the sick creep.

It sounds like the first 6 games won't be affected by any appeal.

This is as I assumed.... OP you assumed a player appealed suspension is the same as the the leauge.

There is a remote possibility for that if he or the NFLPA were to secure an injunction that prevented the suspension from starting.

That's highly unlikely though given that neither party had expressed a desire to appeal the original suspension, only a lengthened one.

How about the possibility he serves 6 games, and then plays a couple while waiting for the court verdict, and then gets the full year suspension and sits again?

Possible if an injunction is issued.

That's fair and honestly the measure should remain he can't use any massage therapist not provided by the browns.

With our luck Watson plays week one, throws 3 td’s and assaults the entire cheerleading team.

He'll be in for a surprise with one of them then.

Has Watson ever met a woman and not molested her? Allegedly.

I hope he plays against us, we will smash him

If our run defense hasn't dramatically improved over last season, it won't matter if it's me or Mr. Scot at QB for Cleveland, we'll get beat.
