Watson Suspended for 11 Games and Fined $5 Million / and a bit OT and back.

...but that's YOU. The women fans is what the NFL is trying to appease here. And the media...who's feeding their frenzy. They give a damn...and they want what's worse for him. So if you're gonna totally screw the team by keeping the QB out for 10-12 games AND losing a contract year, then DON'T DO THAT. Keep him out ALL year. No pay at all. And only 1 mil next year. That way the team isn't getting a double screwing by losing a contract year.
That's all I'm saying. Don't screw the team so heavily. But I really feel that the owners want Haslam screwed because of that very contract that I'm advocating for. The infamous Guaranteed Money. And the only reason I'm fighting for the years of the contract is because, hey, we're in this whether we like it or we don't. We're not able to spin the arrow of time so we can go back and undo this. I want the best possible outcome for the team, because if the team gets screwed then we, the passionate fans, you know, like the ones that post on the team message board(s), get screwed. Not the official league of women librarians. Us.
I think over the years I've called Haslam every name in the book. Trigger finger, crook, sleazy, liar.....I referred to them as Pilot J's Flying Circus on the original team message board, which closed up like, the next day. I'm still pissed at him for what he did to our uniform...I mean, he had to fuck everything up including the uniforms.....everything had to be Pilot J New & Improved. BUT....ironically, I'm not chastising him for this move...because I actually believe that it should be better for the team if we can have Watson at QB instead of Baker. But I certainly understand the sentiment that it's right up sleazy Jimmuh's alley.
You might have missed my point in the very first line of your response. I realize exactly why the NFL is playing Hardball with watson. Not only women but some guys who are a little bit patriarchal about women. As I've said before I don't think his behavior should necessarily be felonious but it really is creepy and he really is a liar and Haslem and the Texans really are Crooks. Beyond that positioning the suspension so that we get an extra year of Watson who cares? If the Browns are playing at a Super Bowl level for the next four years with him I would assume he'd want to stay and they would pay him to stay. If on the other hand the team underperforms because of the lack of draft picks attrition Etc then who wants to be on the hook for another year?

Hopefully that's all of us.

Ya know... I get this ugly feeling Watson is gonna end up like OBJ here and simply "not fit". He looked totally uncomfortable and out of place in his appearance the other night... He even looked disinterested in what was going on... I think his mind is every place else but on Football right now.. This is gonna end ugly... I'm just feeling it.

So I finally watched the game tonight and I couldn't agree more. Watson looked like he wanted to be anywhere else in the universe but that field. His eyes looked glazed and he was emotional less.
Now, I'll be the first to admit that I have not paid much attention to Watson and the only games I've watched him in were against the Browns, with maybe 2 or 3 others that I watched as a casual fan and maybe that's his normal look, but man, dude looked fireless.
....... are you ready for some football?

Well of course. On the other hand I suspect that at least some possibly even most of these accusers are at the very least embellishing the story in order to get a cash payout. In the big picture false accusations are at least as egregious as anything Watson was accused of. And a disservice to the ones whose accusations were valid.

So, now...Harvey doesn't want to make a ruling. He wants to see if the two sides can work it out for themselves. And if, after an undetermined amount of time goes by with no settlement, then he'll finally have to do his job as an NFL contractor.

Supposedly Watson said he would accept 8 games. But that's not good enough for the league.
I say, if it's more than 6 games then give the league the middle finger and take 'em to court. As it is, 6 games is probably enough to put the season in the dumpster but there might be some slim chance at a playoff run. Any more than that and the season is trash anyway. I mean, we're not talking about a RB or a WR. We're talking about the most important position on a team. Now, I understand that whether it's a RB, WR, or QB, doesn't mean that punishment should be different between them.....but they're jerking the team around when it affects the most important cog in the machine.

Phil Sims.. "D.Watson looked 10 lbs. heavier" ..
I didn't really notice until, some side line views came out in the all 22 of the game..

I'm sure he would.
But I'd be shocked if the NFL went through all this just to tack on 2 games.

I'm with you. I was more focused on his demeanor than his appearance, but looking at some video after watching the Simszezz interview I see it.
I'm guessing there was a Mickey Ds near the massage parlor, er, massage therapy office.

Has Mr DW figured it out yet that he doesn't need to put up with all of this hassle ?
The Cleveland Browns have guaranteed his future of being a rich player no matter what he does or how he performs or even whether he's in shape or not.
He hasn't played in forever and is facing even more real NFL hitting and action to be lost. This in a game where not being 100% sharp is so crucial.
Bottom line the BROWNS are screwed.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

I've always enjoyed Phil Sims as a opinion-tive straight shooter..(unbias on many players) Bill Parcell's coaching/tude has taught him well in his next job career... Sure he's got haters (players included) But when I look for QB opinions? He's not been short on his words or opinions... I hope he's right on Brissett..?(high praise from Phil in video) former Colts coach Chuck Pagano has spoken highly of Jacoby Brissett also..Brissett replaced Peyton Manning.. Knew not a play when he was acquired..
Might explain the many Watson Hoodie looks at Camp?
ok, that's enough piling on penalties

The Browns traded for Watson five months ago today.
It's been a smooth ride, hasn't it?

I wonder if Jimmah is having buyer’s remorse?

I was hoping for 48 games, maybe only 18.....but that wouldn't have seemed fair. lol
the three first round picks will surely never come back.
but, maybe........................
