As with many generic terms that have come to be known by their brand names, like Kleenex and Xerox for example, the generic term “a handy” is now and forever known as “a krafty.”  

 

I thought "a krafty" was a handy with a little something involving the back door?

if he had been smoking weed the nfl absolutely would have taken the team from him

Ah yes, the “enhanced” krafty.

I agree.  Just seems that many here want the tape revealed to further humiliate him.  I just don't see what that accomplishes.  All because of football?  Really?

 

Other than simple pleasures ....  not much     

 

and possible ammo for the Pats trolls that visits

Why not?  It’s all entertainment, right?   What’s more entertaining than an owner of a team, in a league that punishes players who get into legal trouble, getting into trouble himself and having to face the consequences, even if that involves being embarrassed publicly?

Sex tapes have been known to really jump-start a career.  Maybe Kraft can become a reality TV star?  "Keeping (it) up with Kraft?"

Cialis and Viagra would be in a bidding war for sponsorship.

Just one more reason to hate NE

 

Sadly KC lost half their team and almost every top weapon assuming Hill doesn't play, and the Colts are the Colts

 

So we're going to have to be the ones to end the dynasty.

To each his own.  I suppose I'm above that.

It all comes down to the Bills sucking the last 20+ years and Brady walking all over them.  Somehow to some fans a video being released is some kind of justice for the Buffalo franchise being terrible?  I don't know, but as I said before, clown world...

You want the NFL to punish Bob Kraft because he has dishonest lawyers?

Punish him for getting busted paying for prostitution on FILM and possibly supporting a human trafficking ring.... how about that? Guys in the NFL get punished for a lot less then that.. Just be consistent NFL with your punishments. That’s it....

 

There never was any human trafficking.  That was a shaky premise that the cops exploited to set up an elaborate handjob sting. LOL

So his lawyers lied?  Shocker! 

 

No his lawyers accused, in court, the cop that did the traffic stop of fabricating the reason for the stop (which the prosecutor pretty much already conceded).  The prosecutor is now, a week later (not while he was standing there, in court when the accusation was made) saying the accusation was "lying".  Kraft's lawyers say they have some sort of tape where the cop says this stuff.

You know as well as I do that Kraft has nothing to do with human trafficking.  He paid for a handy.

 

That would be a common misconception.  People who support illegal prostitution absolutely are contributing to human trafficking as they create the demand for it.  The vast majority of prostitutes - the ones with pimps - cannot leave their profession, except in a body bag.

I can’t speak for everyone but I think it has  more to do with the arrogance of Kraft. Most fans on this board are biased because of football, but if they felt that he was a decent guy I don’t think the snarkiness would be as thick.

So the people working like slaves in Chinese take-out restaurants and in Nail Salons are there for the love of their crafts? 

 

I call bull. 

 

If you're assertion is that someone who pays a C-note for a Krafty is supporting human trafficking, then by your logic, people who get Chinese take-out, manicures and pedicures, are supporting it just the same.

That is just stupid. Like forcefully stupid.  Let’s see, people working hard in restaurants, nail salons, etc. can walk out at any time and find a different/better job. They can report illegal treatment to authorities.  They don’t have to worry about being beaten and raped to death for doing those things. That would be the standard for the typical prostitute and, if you were not aware, a significant difference.

 

Please note:  I am speaking generally about prostitution in this country.  I have not followed this particular case all that closely.

This is a great point--I was going to say something to this effect earlier.

 

Imagine if "health inspectors" (ones not tipped off by the cops) ventured into the living space above any Chinese restaurant in any large city with a large Asian expat population....they would likely see suitcases, minifridges, "evidence of people living there".  So they would run to the cops who would run to the judge to get a warrant to videotape the place and bust it for human trafficking, right?

 

 

Sure, it happens all the time!

 

But in seriousness, sexual/human trafficking is a scourge.  But in an act of true cynicism, the PB county law enforcement used this as a pretext to set up a simple solicitation bust. 

 

They then doubled down on their ballsy charade by announcing (months after ostensibly stepping in to free the slaves) that their "findings" were "just the tip of the iceberg".

 

Interestingly, that's all the crew of the Titanic could see as well.  Ships sink...
