Depending on what the lawyer is sending if falsified it could be a crime.

Need trocheck back desperately at this point.

At least we got a point out of it but Necas so should have had that breakaway.

Fuggidty Fug Fug Ned.

Feeling a hat trick from Aho tonight. He is dialed in. I don’t think he took losing too well last game.

Not our best period for sure, had some good chances but didn’t deliver. Where’s everybody at? It’s straight dead down here tonight.

Thus why not commissioners listing him is really bad.

Oh boy.

Makes no sense unless he doesn’t think the NFL will commissioners list him. Which is a really bad look for them no matter the reality of the accusations.

It does beg the question why now? Why not wait until post trade when you already got the assets if you wanted to drag Watson through the mud.

Because the conduct from that situation doesn’t rise to criminal levels. That said the attorney isn’t the one to bring criminal charges that would be the DA and the story breaking publicly could potential be the first the DA heard of it.

If the one does actually have legit Non-fabricated text(the court can verify them as legit pretty easily) they claim she does its way passed a her word vs. his.

He’s not going to be off the exempt list by opening week without proof McNair was behind this and even then the NFL is going to be in a even worse poo. This is going to take time in courts unless it’s thrown out on standing. The NFL won’t make a move until the courts resolve it.

We know the NFLs track record on using the exempt list. It’s not hard to figure out he’s still going to be on that list come draft day.

The NFL is not going to move that quickly especially against one of their owners.

It doesn’t matter if Watson is innocent or guilty though dude. The process is started and will not be resolved pre-draft or likely this season at all. Personally I think this does scream hit job by a fake ass lawyer and the Texans owner from what we know now. The forced BJ is not a good look though if they can prove Watson was in contact with these women. But that doesn’t matter. He’s going on the list no matter the actual situation. Thus he’s simply not going to be in play. The only way he could conceivably play this season is if his legal team can show irrefutable proof McNair is behind this and that sure as hell won’t be vetted and resolved before the draft. Thats just the simple fact of the matter. It’s time to start looking elsewhere for this year.

He’s going to end up on the commissioners list. End of story. Nobody is going to touch him after that until he is either proved innocent or guilty. It is mind boggling that anyone could entertain the thought of a team trading for him and him playing this year even if someone did.

It’s better for Houston to sit back and let the NFL exempt him and the then cut him. That way they are off the hook for the cap and dead money. So that’s the first thing that’s going to happen.

Do you honestly think anyone would trade for him now though?

Hate to say it but what trade? There is enough in the new allegations to land him on the commissioners list. Nobody’s going to go after him now even if they wanted to.

He doesn’t decide to bring criminal charges though, the authorities and accusers do.

Whats his value now with allegations and possible exempt list & suspension?
