PFT implies Watson punishment should be no more than Jerry, Kraft or Sydner

[CowboyRoy]

If the claims are to be true, grabbing a woman's ******, pressuring someone to perform oral sex, or whipping it out and trying to coerce them to touch him is a little beyond "trying for a happy ending". This goes way farther than simply asking. But hey if you think this is okay behavior, you do you.

https://www.nytimes.com/article/deshaun-watson-sexual-assault-lawsuit.html

"Watson was said in both cases to have pressured women to perform oral sex during massages and was accused in one of also having grabbed a woman’s buttocks and ******. The civil suits alleged that Watson engaged in a pattern of lewd behavior with women hired to provide personal services, coercing them to touch him in a sexual manner, exposing himself to women he had hired for massages, or moving his body in ways that forced them to touch his *****. The incidents cited in the suits were said to have occurred from March 2020 to March 2021."

Yah, I just dont believe all that. Putting your hand a massage girls butt? NO big deal. IF she takes it off you know. And I think many of them were from massage places that do these kinds of things. NO way your just calling up some random massage person over to your house and just start trying to get sex from them. Heck you can go to asian massage places and get that all day.

The owners allow other owners to do as they please, while demanding proper behavior from the players. Isn't that a double standard?

If they're truly interested in cleaning up the NFL, wouldn't they be morally obliged to live by the same set of rules? Think about that, if you will.

And why would the owners want to see themselves punished?

They only punish each other when one gets severely out of line, as Jerry did.

Yep or the drugged out guy where was it? Indy?

Absolutely. All employers have double standards for themselves and their fams. Always been that way.

Bingo! My point exactly.........

 

[kskboys]

While true but not coz the actions are any less evil but camouflaged by layers of subordinate employees and lawyers

It's not about evil, it's purely about money. The rich live in a different world.

 

[kskboys]

I agree. And the guy already had his life screwed up and he missed a year of his career with no pay. If I am the League I give him a "time served" type punishment and be done with it.

I was under the impression that Watson got paid last year. I think he did.

Could have..........I just assumed.

Do you think owners should be held to a higher standard?

I think Snyder and Kraft should be stripped of their teams, especially after Goodell went after Jerry because he got his feelings hurt.

Money needs to have some benefits or there would be no reason to make a lot of it.

 

[Flamma]

I dont see how Watson did anything wrong to be honest. Trying for a happy ending or trying to have sex with your massage therapist happens. I doubt he forced any of them to do anything.

It's just a bad look for the league is what I'm guessing.

Goodell was carrying out the wishes of the primary owners by going after Jerry. Jerry caused it himself by thinking he could do whatever he wanted. The NFL corrected him on that. It was purely Jerry's stupidity that got him wrist slapped.

Typical new generation thinking. Kick the evil rich guy off his perch and ruin his life.

The rich have a completely different mindset than the average human being.

Yes - Colts owner Jim Irsay.

Sure, but why should women or anyone be able to falsly accuse someone and ruin their lives?

Whats worse, grabbing someone's butt or ruining a mans life by overblowing the situation and suing him?

You have to really be doing something to hurt the revenue flow to be stripped of your team. Think Marge Schott.

Well obviously, thats why they are successful. For the most part.

Why is it okay to grab someone's butt? I know it bothers me a lot when people do it to me. I like my butt and I work hard to make it look good but that doesn't mean I want random people grabbing it.
