Watson Suspended for 11 Games and Fined $5 Million / and a bit OT and back.
-
It's all kind of crazy, -0- games ? 5 games ? 11 ? 17 ? More ?
And stop and think what individual that you know of has been fined $5,000,000 and can pay it like you'd pay a speeding ticket.....courtesy of our Cleveland BROWNS thank you.
And he will be forever branded a freak-o person wearing a Cleveland BROWNS starting quarterback uniform on every snap -or- just ev everyday all 365.
Makes me sick about the whole sordid story.
And so will the fan wearing a Watson jersey, especially outside of Cleveland.
How many of you got your Watson jerseys?

Out of curiosity, I did check and there are Watson jerseys for sale at the NFL Shop. I suspect they're not a big seller. You can get Mayfield jerseys 1\2 off though.
That's why I quit buying jerseys with a player's name on it, I have a Tim Couch jersey gathering dust in the basement.

No problem with Watson being suspended but when you compare his 11 game suspension to ben roethlisberger's 4 game suspension it makes you wonder who is actually running the NFL. Gamepass cancelled for this season. May come back next, not decided as yet. Go Browns.
Woof Woof! -

I did pull the trigger on a Nick Chubb jersey and luckily it has worked out well so far. I seriously was contemplating just having a jersey made with an old-school player, like Motley, Graham or Warfield.
I got a Guardians shirt made prior to the season with... Franmil Reyes' name and number on it. After hitting bombs for two seasons for Cleveland, I get the shirt and he promptly goes in the tank and gets released two weeks ago. ?

The Browns are not the Steelers. We don't rate.

Gosh I thought by now everyone should have gotten the "Rapistburger" story straight.
Ben got what he deserved, so did Watson.
From the Georgia DA assigned to the case.
"It wasn't a difficult decision," says Bright. "I'm a prosecutor seeking justice, and we did not have a case. It was not even a close call."
Bright adds that after the alleged victim in the Milledgeville case and her attorney stated that she did not want to pursue the case, Bright wanted to hear from the woman directly, and he and members of the Milledgeville Police Department and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation -- two agencies that investigated Roethlisberger in the case -- drove to the woman's home to meet.
"Her mother and her lawyer and she made it crystal clear that they did not want to go forward with this," says Bright. "It would have been the wrong thing to do to prosecute Roethlisberger. There was that line that I used in the (2010) press conference, 'We do not prosecute morals, we prosecute crimes.'"
Bright says that he is not aware of Roethlisberger making any kind of payoff to the alleged victim in the Milledgeville case. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell suspended Roethlisberger for six games for violating the league's personal conduct policy, but the punishment was later reduced to four games.
It's the NFL that prosecutes morals.

Ok, it's been settled, punishment has been doled out. So how long are the people going to hold on to this? How many snarky comments about Watson do I have to read on anything Browns related that don't have anything to do with Watson? Because we all know how many perfect people there are out there with nothing to hide.

Until the day he's no longer a Cleveland Brown. I'm not a perfect person and have a few skeletons in my closet, but I also didn't have a quarter hundred women accuse me of sexual violence and misconduct. I'm truly baffled that's so hard for people to understand.
I'm not suggesting most people, even for heinous crimes, don't deserve some sort of second chance. But that doesn't mean I will ever forget, be happy, or root for this POS.

I think they understand it.
I don't think they really care. At the end of the day, most people don't care about people they don't know. They do care about their favorite football team, and if a player can help them win, well, there you are.

That's just it, they are accusations. He was never convicted of a crime. To me it looks like another classic example of a young man that has access to tons of money and fame and doesn't know what to do with it and made some stupid mistakes and people are looking to cash in. Just hope he learned his lesson.

I wonder if Jimmah is having buyer’s remorse?
Buying the Browns or signing Watson? lol

If we were all so lucky enough to get paid & play on the NFL stages as players? Oh,,,It's fine-able & suspend-able in the NFL workplace... So here we are..
Watson RULES-- Watson has also been fined $5 million and ordered to commit to counseling and treatment.
* Aug. 30 at 4 p.m.(53 cut-down day) -- Watson must vacate the CrossCountry Mortgage Campus in Berea to begin the suspension, and will be prohibited from returning until midway through his ban.
* Oct. 10 -- Following Week 5 of the season, the day after the Browns’ home game against the Chargers on Oct. 9, Watson can return to Berea for limited team activities -- meetings and lifting -- to get reacclimated. The rule, borrowed from the NFL’s substance abuse policy, is that he can return half-way through his suspension, and the policy favors the player, so it’s after five games.
* Nov. 14 -- Watson may begin practicing with the Browns for the last two weeks of his suspension. It’s the day after the Browns play at Miami.
* Nov. 28 -- Watson becomes eligible to play in games and can participate fully in all team activities.
* Dec. 4 -- Watson is eligible to play in Houston against his former team. It will mark 700 days since his previous game on Jan. 3, 2021.
:REGULAR SEASON: Suspended without pay for the first 11 games and may return on Nov. 28 (not weeks, but games; Browns have bye in Week 9).
If you got to here.. You've read half of below linkHere are other rules, as provided by the NFL

This is the part that concerns me the most :
Dec. 4 -- Watson is eligible to play in Houston against his former team. It will mark 700 days since his previous game on Jan. 3, 2021.
How can someone, anyone miss 700 games and be near ready to play professional football in the NFL. Plus the mental wear and tear, hmmmm.
I guess we'll see.

No double jeapardy? What was the first grand jury for? This to show how much the nfl cares?? Stupid look imho.
What was the first grand jury for?
You know what Tony Buzbee's hotel alias name is? Tony Buzbee.
The grand juries established that Watson didn't do anything criminal. My money still says Texans ginned up the whole thing once they received his trade demand -- because they could. How dare someone not want to play for them, etc etc.
At least now everyone involved can burn the ceremonial candle that smells of freshly signed divorce papers.

Right. Any hotel/motel night manager would look at it and think Tony Buzbee yeah right, lol.
A buddy of mine was a nights, weekends especially during the summer. motel manager during college to make a few extra bucks.....and he was a 6' 7" 280 lb DE for a B10 team. And great way to study or read. He had some really good stories. Great fake IDs for liquor and a room place.
He actually liked the job.

My Browns jerseys have Westside across the back and the number 70 for my graduating class. If I was going to wear a player jersey it would be 17 for Brian Sipe 72 for Jerry Sherkk 73 for Doug Dieken or 12 for Don Cockroft
Wife has a #6.

It would have been interesting how the last five months would have gone down on here if the Browns would have been able to trade for Russell Wilson, instead of Watson.
Obviously, Wilson would not have had the off-field shenanigans to deal with, but he's like 33 years old, and the price tag to get him was still very high. Would there have been people upset to pay such a price for a QB his age? Would have the Baker fans been still mad the Browns moved on from him?
We'll never know, but at least, I guess, we know when Watson will eventually play again.

I've got a #32 in Brown and a semi-long sleeve in white. I've got a brown double zero that says VETTEDAWG on the back. I've always meant to buy a Kosar jersey...but have never followed through. Oh! And I have a #82 that shrunk in the closet.
just getting in from work.. What'd I miss?
