    I should rephrase because you are absolutely right. Rather than “I don’t believe it” I should say “I don’t WANT TO believe it”. This dude could likely have any woman he wants.. he has a beautiful girlfriend. It is just extremely worrisome to think that a franchise QB who has given every indication that he is a good guy, is out here forcing women to suck his penis.

    I hope that’s not the case. The more that comes out, the more I’m worried.

    like I said earlier, this is either the biggest smear campaign in modern sports history, or Deshaun is a ****ing creep.

    someone deserves jail time

    Are you seriously trying to blame Cal McNair for what seems like a pattern of behavior from Deshaun? Who will you blame when the list of masseuses that were coerced into having sex with butt boy comes out? Because that's where this is going. Guys with the reach and clout of Buzbee don't take cases like this without multiple smoking guns.

    What’s the national coverage like? Still overwhelmingly pro-Deshaun as it was during the trade requests? Certainly they shouldn’t be “taking sides” and simply reporting the facts, but a lot of the talking heads already pledged their allegiance to all things Watson, so will be interesting to see how they approach this.

    For the record, what Watson did is what a lot of people do... every single day... especially in a city such as Houston where there is a ton of unregulated access to “activities”. Having money gives you access to better options... and in some cases buys you privacy (as maybe one other former Houston sports star was once “frequenters” of such things).

    But why its coming out now, and a smear campaign encouraging others to come forward, is all a PR ploy to tarnish his image. His image would likely already have taken a hit if he decided to sit out for the year, while healthy. Curious to see what the next move is for team Deshaun... but for the first time in this whole process, they aren’t really controlling the narrative.

    What stand still?
    This is all coming out.

    The more i think about it this was the ONLY out texans have.

    This benefits texans to be able to sell on watson for anything and be moral high horse.

    Before that watson was a clean cut dude baptized in the river jordan

    Normally I would agree and a lot of times you will find that there was some type of relationship (i.e. friends, acquaintances, mutual contact, etc...). But so far Buzbee is presenting a case it where it is individual masseuses with no connection whatsoever who were all sought out by directly and separately.

    Don’t want to sound like I’m dismissing the allegations but 6 of them all popping up at once by the same attorney is really suspect to me.

    Why would that be surprising really? People have been desperately trying to blame others for Watson's actions all off-season long....why would they change now?

    Definitely not new.
    Claims of multiple baby mommas and having someone followed-all unsubstantiated, is not the same as 6 lawsuits alleging sexual assault.

    As a lawyer, can you explain what skin the plaintiff(s) and plaintiff's counsel have in the game at this point?

    If these suits can be filed with little to no overhead, risk, or cost (both real or imagined) to the plaintiff(s) or their counsel, it stands to reason that this could all be done in service of tarnishing Watson's reputation/image/character and/or wasting their time/money.

    The Watson saying he wants to be traded and Texans saying no stand still.
    If anyone believes the Texans would have women lie and a super high profile lawyer file suits on the basis of lies, is delusional.
    They are incompetent, nothing they have done says they have the intellect to come up with something like this nor the vitriol to hurt someone like that.
    This is one of two things. Either there are women trying to blackmail for money, or Watson has done some pretty messed up things with women.

    6 unsubstantiated CIVIL lawsuits. Let's not play pretend and act like these cases have enough evidence to warrant a criminal investigation. Because there isn't one for what would be (in Buzbee's opinion) a serial rapist.

    No I’m not blaming Cal McNair for what Watson did or did not do.

    I am saying that if there was one franchise right now in football that would have the luck to have their QB ask for his butt hole to be massaged, it would be the Texans because everything that can go wrong has gone wrong.

    I also don’t buy the Texans have anything to do with these allegations getting out. Looking at the complaint it is obvious to me that the attorney is setting the stage for possibly bringing a larger claim against the NFL.

    The decision to fly in Instagram women across the country to give him massages is entirely Watson’s and has nothing to do with Cal McNair.

    I’m all for letting it play out in court. The first two suits are one thing. The third claiming forced oral sex is different.
    Either way, this isn’t good.
    And it benefits the Texans in no way.

    Yet if he's innocent and the Texans are behind this then Cal should be forced to sell the team & face a massive civil suit from Watson. The women should face civil & criminal penalties if lying. BUT

    If Deshaun is guilty of this third one, forget football, he should be in jail. AT THE VERY LEAST DESHAUN IS HELLA STUPID for putting himself in this position. At worst, he's a criminal who should be in jail. Like I posted before, this isn't even about football anymore.

    How long before the Texans try and recoup those 27 million dollars.

    Some of these allegations are pretty recent. I think the third claim was from December. This isn't like some of the other cases of celebrities where the allegations are years or sometimes decades old. When should they have come out where fans would be willing to trust the accusers and not assume it's a smear campaign? I don't think these women thought to themselves, "Gee, I ought to wait a while to come forward with these sexual assault allegations so this doesn't look like a PR move."

    Also, I don't care what other people with money do in Houston—if these allegations are true, that's sexual assault. Having money or fame doesn't change that. Saying "other people do it" doesn't justify the man's actions if there's any truth to them.

    A strange "luck" if that's what we are gonna call it

    i know what i know if you know what i mean... da do ya?

    If he's really this guy, the Texans should void his contract and cut him. Why not? He doesn't fit the culture and I'm sure they have a "morals" clause in his deal. Just void it & cut him. Easterby should flex his christian muscle and make a strong statement.

    I think there's a third possibility here, too—that Deshaun did do some or all of this stuff AND Buzbee is looking to tarnish the man's reputation. People are so quick to think in black and white and take sides, but it's very likely the truth is somewhere in the middle. Buzbee probably did take this case because he's a friend of the McNair family and a Houstonian who was happy to tarnish the man's reputation. But I doubt he manufactured all of these allegations to do it—Deshaun more than likely did some of this stuff if you have six different women coming forward with similar claims.

    The only real risk for the plaintiff's is DW4 potentially filing a defamation case against them. For Buzbee, they'd have to prove that he knew the allegations and statements were false which would pit him against his clients, something I doubt he would be worried about.
