Mr. WEO Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 8 hours ago, whatdrought said: Oof.... my first instinct is to call bs. Watson has been nothing but a standup guy going back to Clemson - from everything I’ve ever seen. My second instinct is to say: who the hell would be surprised if the Texans (specifically Easterbe) was doing something to try and sully Watson’s name? With what we’ve heard that seems perfectly on brand. My third instinct is to say - dang. This’ll be interesting. really my third is my first. I'm guessing you know nothing about him, so take #1 off your list. Your #2 seems beyond far fetched. The team conjuring up a sexual assault allegation with a lawyer and lawsuit (and a victim)? Yeah that happens all the time... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t make any sense, unless they’re pissed, and trying to get revenge, or they’re trying to dry up the market so they can’t be forced to trade him. Probably unlikely, but this is the team that’s recently been accused of having their players followed, so who the heck knows. I see comprehension is still difficult for you. I’m not surprised. If you find the timing of this suit being filed as completely coincidental, I have a bridge for sale in your neck of the words you might be interested in. No need for personal insults, is there? Are you trying to prove that you are a tough guy? Edited March 17, 2021 by Bill from NYC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionC3 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 The nature of the papers will tell us a little about this case. I'm curious if they're (the Texas equivalent) of verified, which essentially means that the attorney is swearing to the veracity of the contents. Also, FWIW, around here nobody who is credible would bring a case like this without subjecting their client to a polygraph. Not sure if it's the same practice down there.

WEO...I think if you are naive enough to think that a professional sports team has never employed fixers to establish relationships with shady lawyers to concoct stories about high profile football players in a very public contract dispute suggesting sexual misconduct with a comely masseuse in an effort to destroy the player, his reputation, trade value and availability at game time, well I’m guessing you’ve never seen a Matt Damon movie. Know this: Life imitates art. Not always, but sometimes. Consider. Oh, and masseuse...it’s hard to spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, think about it: Were Watson to be charged with something heinous, in Houston, he'd be done. Outta the league. Gonzo. Yesterday's washed-up, dog-pissed-on news. However, if whatever did or did not happen, happened AFTER the Pat******s pick him up, why it would all be so conveniently and convivially swept under the rug. After all, he would be a true Patriot (for a matter of weeks)... An acolyte of The Patriot Way... An American, and a great one at that. He would have been purged of sins and immersion-baptized in the milk from the very teat of Robber Graft, Himself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
