    C'mon... 66 broads dude... This dude is a star athlete... Why does he need to recruit all of these women to carry out his weird fetishes...  This is NOT normal behavior... He's an idiot...

    And most likely going to continue to prey on women... I hope he banished from the NFL and the contract is nullified. The Texans should be charged with EXTORTION and Cleveland returned our picks. Then Andrew Berry and Jimmy Haslam need to go and give Baker a massage. Dumbasses.

    .......*slightly edited.....

    Then Andrew Berry and Jimmy Haslam and Baker Mayfield. ....go into a bar......(or massage parlor, take your pick)

    Sorry,  I couldn't resist this one, based upon the classic    "three guys go into a bar"    lead-in.

    Like...... 

    Then Andrew Berry and Jimmy Haslam and Baker Mayfield. ....go into a bar.... and after way too many jello shots.....and then Baker says hey I got a swell idea.....ahhhh....you guys call the Houston Texans and......ahhhh.....offer a whole big, big bunch of money for their quarterback......ahhhh, I forgot his name but he's real good. 

    Then I'll get a bunch of money and just leave.....ahhh.....something like that.  

    Andrew and Jimmy  then say...... "yeah that sounds cool".......  And then Jimmy says..... "bartender gimme the phone".

    Then [insert your finish here].    

     Like for example.....  Jimmy says :  WOW are they going to remember us in Cleveland !    Bartender 3 more jello shots !  Hello Texans Jimmy here......ahhhh.....I got a great idea......       😳

  • Then watch Cal, Nickers and Steve's heads explode.

    Well written potshot at the Browns. 

    It's hard to defend DW. It's even harder to defend Jimmy Haslam. I wouldn't have made the trade.

    I still say DW is giulty of being a creepy guy, but that's not illegal. No rape charges, no counts of gross sexual imposition. 

    The Texans likely knew all of this stuff, and 13 teams still went after DW. If DW is suspended, I think the Texans should be punished as well.

    The Browns brain-trust say that they started their investigation of Watson back in November and that they were comfortable with what they found out.  So, one has to wonder, what did they find out?  Did they know what the rest of us know so far?  

    I'm no NFL contract lawyer, but I might have stipulated that if he's suspended for a season or more, we get one of the 1st round picks back.  Of course, since the Texans were up to their neck in knowledge of the situation, they would've nixed the deal.

    It's been hard to follow at times, with so many stories reported (or editorials). 

    Hard to defend the Haslams, but in their defense they stated they couldn't dig too deep due to the criminal investigations happening- I can believe. that take.

    If they couldn’t “dig too deep” they should have steered clear of the entire situation. Hell the only reason he’s a brown and not a falcon is the insane contract he was offered. There comes a time where you have to mitigate the risk, especially when by all intents and purposes they’ve put together a pretty solid roster.

    All that draft capital and all that money on a wild card. Haslam really shit down his leg here and the city suffers. If he gets anything less than a year people are going to flip out, especially with guys like Ridley catching a year for betting on his own team to win while he was sidelined. The nfl runs a fan duel ad every 10 minutes. You then add in roe v wade which is unrelated but still very much linked to womens rights and the public outrage will be insane. (No I will not debate roe v wade with anyone here, I didn’t mention it for that reason)

    If you couldn't dig too deep into the situation, then perhaps giving the player under investigation the world (and the team getting rid of him the world) isn't the most prudent move, yes?

    Absolutely Bob. Unfortunately the image of the NFL is at stake. Probably more seriously now than in the past. And some of the greatest comedians actors directors producers in the world have had their entire careers destroyed by lesser allegations.

    (And the Texans should absolutely before be forced to eat a big bowl of shit.)

    My own jaundiced opinion of the me too movement not withstanding but I would prefer my beloved Cleveland Browns were the laughing stock of the league instead of the pariah.

    Right. Haslam wants to win so bad he lost his mind (again). 

    Sometimes I wish the NFL had a "Stepien Rule."

  • To be honest, at this point, I don't care if he showed his brown snake to these masseuses at all. The more important question is how many yards Watson can throw for after the pocket collapses.
