Watson Suspended for 11 Games and Fined $5 Million / and a bit OT and back.
-
Probably but eight games is almost a free pass for the number of counts especially considering what other players and celebrities wave gotten for far less.
And unless he's learned to keep his dick in his jock there are probably literally thousands a massage therapists of every stripe and investigative reporters looking to hit a gold mine.

Yeah, Watson is going to have to learn there's things you can't do when you're getting a massage. He may even have to go the route that's SOP in hospital ERs when someone comes in claiming that they've been raped.. There's always a second person in the room when they conduct the exam.
PS I'm betting 8 games too Steve. The player's association is for sure going to bring up naughty Bob Kraft getting off with zero consequences.

Lots of people hate Bob Kraft because the Patriots are so successful, sour grapes you understand. But Kraft went to a place that was basically a whorehouse.
A good chance those or at least many of the massage therapists were basically hookers but you would have to bet did at least a good portion of them were not.
Did anyone file a complaint against Bob Kraft?

Which begs the question, if he’s innocent what is the compelling factor to settle out of court?
Because those court cases could drag on for years.. Watson can claim he's "innocent" but there's plenty of claims by more than one woman stuff went on that was way more than what would be considered a "normal" massage.
It's like having 24 annoying mosquitos pestering you. He just paid 20 of them to go away. Doesn't make it any less sleazy, but it was the smart thing to do. It won't shock me at all if the other 4 magically disappear when Deshaun meets their asking price.

So back to the topic, let's say the league suspension for one season and the Players Association threatens to strike unless they cut it in half. On 1 to 10 scale how big of a bunch of scumbags are the NFL players Association? Over under his nine.

No because Kraft helped make GOD-ell a very rich man...

If he was innocent, I wonder why he had to “settle” the cases against him? ?

I'd bet that the Browns might have made a suggestion or two along the way. Like, can't ya do something get this settled so it can start to go away?

I think you’re correct, but then again the Browns “supposedly” did their homework on Watson.

That has nothing to do with it. I'm saying that he most likely but that the chicks that he did it to are exaggerating their traumatic experiences.

Exactamundo Steve. The reports were some of these ahem, "masseuses" were paid as little as $100 bucks. We probably will never know what they're getting out of this settlement, but you can bet the ranch it's way more than $100. Add a few more zeroes on- at least.
The remaining four holdouts are undoubtedly asking for more. Whether it will ever make it to court will depend on their asking price to make their hurt feelings better. As you opined, they're taking a risk that they could wind up with nothing.

Most of them were not professional maseusses... Sound like they were paid hookers to me...

So the cases were only worth 50-75k?

Doubtless... Some of them were already on HBO? I suspect they got a nice little "appearance" fee.

Yup... Old Busser-bee isn't dumb... He gets a cut of every one of those 20 checks.
& the 4 holdouts are only holding out for more $$$

Settling is a tacit admission of guilt. Its also better for his career because if even one case stuck his career is likely over and he might be a registered sex offender.
I wish he was anywhere but cleveland honestly.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

3.) Read between the lines folks
1.) 20 of the 24 cases would have settled at 100k...but Watson needed all 24 at that time... my guess? he got the 20 just over the 100k they offered..IDK.. just my opinion
2.) also very True ! but remember the new case Hardin had that he knew nothing about? my guess? the 2 more suits that are on deck? Hardin faced the same thing again.. It may have forced Hardin's hand to settle the settle-able? IDK..Just my opinion.. My question is? of the 4 remaining? Who's left with actual sexual assault charges?
3.) I'll wait.. hopefully most of those lines will get out...

The lawyers on both sides tend to know their clients, relative case strength, defendant's assets/ability to pay, the other details that we do not know about.
So 20 settle at $75k = $1.5M. And 20 at $100k = $2M. We know about the DW guaranteed money so this means the women have a weak case, take the money and run. I think (
️) that this is the case. Weak case, quick settlement, done.
The holdouts either want their day in court, justice -or- they're better poker players and they can either win their case or settle for much more later.
I'm sure that they are proceeding with their lawyer's guidance. We'll see as this soap opera grinds on........
.......meanwhile we fans keep typing on.

There was talk of these cases taking years to go through one by one. His entourage wants him playing football. This is the way to end it. (guilty or innocent)

HIGH PRICE lawyers are high price because they WIN and get big paydays for their clients.....but they cost $$$$ up front. And most all have a great staff.
I have a lot of good lawyer stories, from inside our family and out including a few interesting judges. I used to golf with a bunch of them....great stories on the 18th and 19th holes.

We’ve heard at this point more from the “victims” and Florio and some of you have just eaten it up. Things would have changed with the ability to confront some of the accusers.
