Deshaun Watson to be suspended 11 games via settlement

So, is the Browns fine/donation basically just so they can skip the part where they have to roll doubles, and they can get out of jail early? 

Also, what are they being fined for? The league is just pissed that they traded for and gave him such a bonkers contract?

Couldnt just give him a full year?

 

What this guy did was sickening.

That would not hurt the Browns as much because his contract would toll. The NFL had to do this so they would get punished for their mishandling of this whole thing.

So a sexual deviant should be killed? Watson clearly has a sickness that needs to be addressed, but wishing he’d die is pretty over the top. If he was found guilty of a crime then he’d be behind bars, not returning to the field in 11 weeks.

A "sickness." Lmao

 

This treatment for this "sickness" is closer to rabies in a dog than the flu in a human.

I still wouldn’t watch

yolo I might watch to witness the heckle he gets. Dude won't play anywhere this season without the fans voicing their opinions about him. I dare say even at home hes gonna get the business. HE put himself in this situation now he has to suck it up and perform. I hope he chokes.

Yup

 

But why should this hurt the Browns?

 

Watson was the offender. Not the Browns.

I was hoping for a year, but at least he’s out for our game.  $5 mil. Is a joke.  It should’ve been for $20 mil.

 

Hes a douche.  No jokes please as every time I think of him, I think of if my daughter was treated in this manner.

 

I never root for an injury, but in this case I’d make an exception.

Who compared this to a flu? It’s a mental illness, similar to the guy who runs around flashing people behind a trench coat. That’s what my “sickness” term referred to.

I said I thought doubling was the limit of where they would go. They care about this "new disciplinary process" holding. That is why Goodell and his client journalists have been trumpeting how great the process is since the CBA. 

 

I am not surprised. 

 

My next prediction is Watson and the NFLPA will not seek to challenge the process in the courts. I think this is the end of the matter (save obviously for further evidence emerging later). 

 

They'd have a hard time with damages since this was a settlement.

I mean they settled so I don't see how they would challenge it at this point.

So what could be described in the most charitable sense as a paraphilia can be cured with a little time on the couch and what, an SSRI?

Not sure, as I’ve never had therapy or know the outcome of most cases, but the league assigned it so they must believe it works. Maybe those who got counseling for some mental health issue can speak to this better.

 

EDIT: the fact that Watson STILL sees no wrongdoing on his part is his biggest hurdle. Could counseling give him that perspective he lacks? If he doesn’t appear in the news again for a related charge we might have our answer.

I don't think predators can be addressed or fixed and I wouldn't shed any tears,
