Snell41 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I guess is a required part of the internet tough guy act around here to personally attack people with whom you disagree. Good job there tough guy. I am sorry but we simply disagree on this one. I think the nut job who did this has already spent a non-trivial amount of time in jail for his criminal offense and that the civil jury here simply saw a deep pockets opportunity to stick a "monopoly money" type award to the hotel chain. If you do not think that Erin Edwards has actively been selling sex as part of her "act" then you are not seeing the same internet pictures as I am. Give her another few years and she will doubtless complain that she is being shunted aside in favor of a younger, more attractive replacement. All the while conveniently forgetting that this very bias is a large part of how she got the job in the first place. No, not a tough guy. I just have a daughter. Unfortunately half of my job raising her will be teaching her how to deal with troglodytes that try to tell her everything she earns and works hard at is given for her looks alone.

isired Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I think some of you guys are nuts. Do you think your mother, sister, wife or daughter would ever be the same? Now consider if she travels for her career year-round and stays in hotel rooms dozens of nights (at a minimum) a year, how would her life and how she feels every day change? Every noise she hears in a hallway, every time she sees a person or a group of people looking at a computer screen or cell phone, it all has to affect her. Those videos are never going away. Does she pay for additional security? Does she live like that the rest of her life? I think the real crime in all of this is that the guy got like 2 years in jail, and he's already out. So it gives her something else to think about, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does the purple crayon taste like? 4. What is "Man Pride"? Can you get it in department stores? 5. What if your daughter becomes a model? Will you still tell her that it has nothing to do with her looks? 6. My mom's dead, how do I find out if she is proud of me? 7. So if I was a woman, would my Woman Pride be just as besmirched?

Wanna know how I learned it was International Women's Day? Opened up snapchat to see a beautiful blonde wearing nothing but thigh-high socks and a knicks' winter hat with the International Women's Day filter. God Bless America. And the internet. And Al Gore. Also, today I learned how a roughly 7-figure payout will single-handedly bankrupt a hotel conglomerate. My only question is how many lawsuits have they lost over the years, because they've been charging $6 for a bottle of water for a couple of decades now. Is it gonna jump to $10?

jgb Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Probably unlikely to be interested in someone whose current claim to fame seems to be tossing around personal insults a la Trump. Small Trump glove size JGB?. But by all means dream on. Perhaps in your fantasy she will seek you out for so staunchly taking her side here in the rough and tumble world of football message boards. Or not. I don't consider it an insult to call me Trump. No politics allowed but you can guess what that means. And I bet Erin would be more into me than a guy who thinks she brought about getting humiliated because she hits the gym and has a year round tan.

jgb Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Uh......... "In fact, she was Heather Clem, who was then married to Todd Clem, Mr. Bollea’s onetime friend and a radio “shock-jock” whose legal name is Bubba the Love Sponge. The former wrestler also sued the Clems after the tape became public, a case that was settled out of court." I stand corrected. I still think this is something Hogan and Clem cooked up to hit a payday. Probably why it was settled out of court, just for show... They settled for five lousy grand and an apology.

My point is how effed up the court system is to allow such a ludicrous penalty. Again there are murder cases involving non-famous people that don't come anywhere close to this number. Even OJ only had to pay $25M for 3 murders. I am paying attention. Youre not listening. It wasnt a ludicrous penalty. It is only to those who are jealous. And you keep saying OJ murdered 3. He wasnt even convicted of 1, was charged with 2, where are you getting 3?

Scott Dierking Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 My guess is that it boils down to this-If Erin Andrews had the option of: 1. Never having had this happen and she continued her career, maybe without some of the special benefits this supposedly gave her, but had a solid broadcast career OR 2. Enduring this video and the supposed humiliation + the court's decision + a few supposed extra career perks That she would choose #2. Maybe that is me hoping that there is a solid intention of a cute lady who wants to just have her dignity and sense of peace. Again, that may just be me.

But I would NOT be looking for f*cking 55 million. That is beyond absurd. That is so insanely ridiculous. Like I said, with that kind of verdict you should be looking at a wrongful death suit.

jett Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Not sure if it's been said already but not reading every page. But So it's basically split 50/50 Marriott and the other guy. The one dude has no money so the 26 million from mariott is what she will get right? Nope.. They are gonna appeal, probably down to 20 million. Take out 40 percent lawyer fees, a 1 million trial setup fee and the ever loving federal taxes, and she will be left with... 6 or 7 million. I'll still take it.

It was 2 (Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman). My point is the same though. In civil court (where the burden of proof is lower) OJ WAS convicted of the murders. As for your point that $25M from 20 years ago was a lot less than it is today, fair enough. But even if it would take $50 M to equal $25M from 20 years ago (and I doubt that though I do think the US is going to experience hyperinflation at some point soon thanks the the Federal Reserve's reckless money printing) is what happens to EA anywhere close to 2 murders? That was my point about you not listening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
