Sounds like most of these women prostituted themselves out doing "massage therapy" and knew he had a big contract and are embezzling him.
Steelers asked Ben to Settle granted it was 4 years later.
The real slime ball in the whole matter seems to be Buzzbee – even more than Watson.
If the NFL lets Watson play this year on $1M contract and suspends him in 2023 with $46M base, Al Sharpton and the N. double A.C.P. and friends will bring fire down because the NFL let a white owner in Washington go on with business as usual while taking money out of the mouths Watson's babies.
I actually agree with Florio? This feels… weird… I don't like it.
Imagine being a female Browns fan seeing Watson hand the ball to Hunt…
Why does Watson need the Blow back, his dealer out or something? Wait til he reups!
he's making $230 million guaranteed – give each accuser $10 million and Watson still has $10 million left, which is more than most people will make in a lifetime… $23 million is the PREFECT number to be divided 23 ways (22 accusers + Watson = 23)
Why is Chris talking 8 games? Zeke got 6 for a smaller volume of cases, Brady got 4 for nothing (NFL suppressed their own findings that exonerated Brady). Watson could be looking at a year plus, especially if just one of the ladies got on a talk show and told their story. The owners must also be pissed that Watson refused to honor a contract, waived his c*** all over Harris County and got rewarded for it. It could be hammer time.
So your niece would be OK with Watson if he settles? How does that change things? He's still the same guy. The same slimeball who looks for multiple message places on instagram.
Florio — You're an attorney. What if the plaintiffs cannot meet their evidentiary burden and convince a jury that Mr. Watson actually committed a tort (presumably battery, assault, or intentional infliction of emotional distress)? You're saying as an attorney that the NFL is justified to intercede into the Brown's contract with Watson and not allow the Browns the benefit of that contract. Shouldn't we presume that no tort has been committed until it's proven? And I'm not sure that Texas law has the "offer of judgment" procedure. I sincerely think you would do well to forget about playing lawyer on YouTube.
I'm willing to bet the Browns got the NFL position on this before making the deal. The NFL will not suspend him indefinitely unless he settles. If these cases take 5 years to get through the court system so be it. NFL would be forcing the Browns to just give this man $230 million for nothing. Gtfoh!
Mike torico always saying hi but he’s really saying bye
I do NOT like him trying to pressure Watson into settling. Nobody GAF about what your one niece wants or likes. It's still a bidness at the end of the day. Let it play it out first and see what happens before you tell a black man to throw money at women.
It’s almost like he would’ve settled if he thought he didn’t have a chance to prove his innocence.
So he should pay liar’s money even tho he’s innocent?
They let Alvin Lamar’s play the pro bowl
yah want him to settle for football reasons only he tryna clear his name tho
1:26 Seems like this dude doesn’t really care about the chicks. “Put it behind everyone?” Tell me you’ve never met a victim of assault without telling me you’ve never met a victim of assault.
learned something new today: 5:47
He needs to get them done before next year to get to play with the c . b
Roger the dodger isn’t going to go toe to toe with a owner like Haslem…
Their attorney is very happy with Watson’s new contract.
Just give him same punishment Robert kraft got…crickets…
Why did he ask Simms the first question, Florio is the law expert. Just kind of a weird
the nfl, where your career gets ended if you kneel, but you get 230 million when accused by 22 women.
22 LIESSSSSSSSSSSSS! Watson 100% innocent. This guys been wrong on Watson legal events for a year now. Watson shouldn't pay them anything.
If the Browns think that Watson is going to change, they are in for a surprise!
No justice no peace! DeShaun Watson knows the deal. He's going to make these heifers the laughingstock of the world.
If he wanted to settle he would have. He's not because he wants to clear his name. If he does, a ton of media and social media will owe him a massive apology.
Mike was so quick with that “Why not?” Lol. The lawyer came out in him like “Naaa, as a lawyer let me educate you on how Billionaire’s are advised” Mike you need to drop Simms, the show is more enjoyable without him constantly fumbling over his words!
There's not 22 heifers you lucky if it's 13. If you think the NFL is going to lose some money on your ignorant guess again the handwriting is on the wall they know those heifer are lying you know it too. You're just mad cuz you seen a black man get his "justice." I told you in the beginning Florio get over it!
Then why would they trade for him then?
Just curious if he signs with Atlanta or New Orleans if this network and the rest of the national media are creating mass consumption segments suggesting the same message that is being expressed because deshaun Watson signed in Cleveland?
settling admits guilt and when he said he wanted out of houston 22 civil cases were filed
How many times do we have to hear the Brown's gm is a Harvard grad? Trading and giving this contract to Watson doesn't sound like the Browns did their due diligence. To Florio's ideas on the civil system, he's wrong. The civil court isn't just about money, ask Nicole Brown Simpson's family.
