Watson Given 11 Game Suspension

[Basbear]

One of the deals I cannot grasp was, by all accounts Watson was respected and well-liked by everyone. I travel some during his Clemson time and hear nothing but good stuff about him and his character. Then nuke drops and one of the first reports was all houston masseuse black-listed him.

Ummm, ok. If that’s how you feel. Not trying to change your mind or anyone else’s. 

I appreciate the lesson. It wasn’t really needed, but thanks. 
 

I hope he gets the help he needs, and changes for the better. 

FYI-today he said he has done nothing wrong.  Prognosis very poor.

 

Also...want to say, if you are a fan of his I know  this whole thing is very  disappointing.  I bought in when he cried those big tears, saying how much the team meant to him.  Then...demanded a trade...nd now.... He has let a lot of people down who were pulling for him.

Yea, I’m disappointed in him. I know he does a lot around here in the Atlanta area, and has a lot of people that look up to him. While I’m disappointed, I’m going to give him the opportunity to do and get right. I wanted him here in Carolina, and I won’t run or hide from that. 
 

With that being said, I understand why some have written him off. I respect your opinion and how you feel towards him, and I won’t and I’m not trying to change your mind

It is not how I feel but based on clinical training and experience.

That’s cool. 
 

I’m still hoping he changes for the better. If he does, I’ll root for him again. Many others will as well.

I just don’t understand how he turned out like this. I guess you truly never know some people. Crazy behavior. He needs to go to sex therapy. 

[WOW!!]

Big issue now for the Browns football wise.. Is that sneaky contract that protected his money now shits on their cap next season.. 55 mil guaranteed and they have players to pay soon..

Miles Bridges has crushed me as a huge fan of his since Flint ... Now I can't respect the team for him still being here...

I should have put money on this, I was 100% sure Watson wouldn't get a full year.  NFL judge goes light, the NFL steps in and flexes it's muscle (wink/nod) and the whole charade is over.  The NFL can say they did the best they could invoking their most serious punishment and Watson still gets to play this year.  Win/Win, just how it was scripted.

Posting the forced apology interview followed by its retraction once the punishment was known says a lot...

[Mr. Scot]

Klein had a pretty good take on that as well...

So did this guy...

In another news,Carolina Panthers black helmets are not on Madden 23, there should be a boycott until that happens...

His comments about triggering people etc are disgusting. I hope he comes to realize what he's done and does get help. I am skeptical that'll happen any time soon.
