Serious question: When a lawsuit is filed, can one party's lawyers file some sort of gag order to prevent the other party's lawyers from dragging their client's name through the mud or trying the case in the "court of public opinion"?

Maybe paying for cheap sex is the turn-on? I got nothin'. I would think high-end "professional services" (unsure why a pornstar would be desireable) with a confidentiality agreement would make far more sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 10 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: In all seriousness, the reasons why sexual assault and rape often go unreported to law enforcement are prolly beyond the scope of football relevant discussion. Can we just take it as written that they exist? That conclusion does not follow: First, it doesn't follow from anything I've said Second, it is illogical and unfounded to conclude that stuff I've said on this board ever represents the total of my feelings on any topic, and especially on the topic of sexual assault where the board's prohibition on general political discussion particularly constrains me, as a mod If you want to know how I think on the topic, try the mundane solution: ask me. Oooooh, too easy! You can keep your apology. I refrain from suggesting locations. Post deleted. Sorry for the misinterpretation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 The stories seem consistent with a pattern of behaviour. Even if first impressions are that the lawyer involved is a bit of a publicity seeker himself it doesn't look good for Watson.

I am still suspicious of the lawyer, simply giving a bunch of women similar stories is not enough for me, though a lot of stuff apparently went through twitter and Instagram and the big facts for me: 1) did he hire all of his massages once per person? If I need a massage and have a good person I go back repeatedly 2) did he only get them at home or were these supplemental to his ones at the facilities? 3) how did he find these women? If all these women were found on instagram and they can show he only found them there he will have a hard time explaining this. I in general do not trust lawyers like this guy but if he has done this 9+ times the pattern should be able to be shown with a digital trail- it does not need to be every girl but at least a few.

Having NINE women come forward, all through the same lawyer, and none of them going to the police makes me MORE skeptical of this story than if it was only 1 woman (or just a few). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 1 - if Watson did this, he’s a scumbag and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law 2 - I absolutely don’t trust that lawyer 3 - I still do struggle with all of the allegations coming at the same time, especially given Watson’s situation with the Texans 4 - if these women and lawyer are lying, they should be prosecuted. It’s far too easy to ruin someone’s life with an allegation. 5 - when the Bill Cosby thing happened, it just showed you don’t really know any of these people. Everything I’ve heard about Watson is awesome. It would suck to thing he was a scum human. 6 - you think the religious guy running the Texans would get rid of a guy like that at all costs. 🤔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What in the actual are you thinking to do something or even put yourself in the situation where you could be accused of something like this? It's a puzzle, for sure. But it seems like athletes around the NFL who are young, relatively wealthy (even the rookie practice squad guys are making money in the 95th percentile for the US, straight out of college), and have the social "capital" of playing a professional sport, regularly get into trouble with sketchy encounters when it would seem probable to us that there would be women lining up to give them whatever they want, in an aboveboard and 100% consensual way. I can only think that the ambiguity or risks of the situation must be part of the allure. Look at the "Cheesecake Factory #### ###" story about Baker Mayfield. Someone here who seems to have some inside info about Berea said something to the effect that it was considered "par for the course" with Mayfield's behaviors at the time and that his wife knew and was OK with it, IIRC. That woman, taking her story at face value, was very clear about the consentuality of what happened - she knew beforehand what Mayfield wanted, she came there expecting to provide it, they chatted, then Mayfield explicitly asked "are we gonna do this or not?" giving her a chance to back out or go forward. Mayfield came out of that episode (again, taking it at face value) looking like a sleeze, but a consentual sleeze. But Mayfield had clearly put himself in a situation (again, taking story at face value that it occurred) where the woman could have told a totally different version, made him look much worse, and hired a lawyer. Then if the "par for the course" part was correct, maybe a dozen other women woulda come out of the woodwork. Why would a guy do that? I can only think either the risks of the situation must be part of what they want, or they're so focused on football that they have no clue as to other ways to proceed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 The plaintiffs’ lawyer released some of Watson’s texts to two of the women today. If that’s all he’s got, it’s pretty underwhelming. I’m starting to smell a rat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
