Greenbloodblitz Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 5 minutes ago, Trotter said: Yup - you would. Difference is you don't make tens of millions of dollars for the NFL. An earlier post stated that his contract was structured so he only made 1 mil this year and 40 next. I am all for coincidences but to think this was not all predetermined would be foolish. Reality is he will serve 6 and when he comes back the stadium will be packed and the game possibly flexed to prime time. As Sonny said - No one cares. Yup and that's some serious Privilege~ They just said he went to 66 different masseuses in a year and a half~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Well the smart thing for the league and the NFLPA and Watson himself would be as follows. Get the expected weak 6 game suspension recommendation. The league and NFLPA get tough and add 2 games saying they do not stand for this stuff! The player serves 8 games (instead of the year long suspension he should get) and the league and pa come out smelling like roses for getting tough and adding more games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I'll take the L on this one. Was pretty confident he would get at least 10 games. Makes zero sense to see guys like Hopkins and Ridley get more games than him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately since there were no criminal charges and the suits are being settled this is about what I expected. This is a new process, also, with an ex judge deciding so she wasn’t bound by any precedent from past NFL suspensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way you phrase it - this could very well be how this plays out. Everyone wins including Watson who only has a 1 mil salary this year so the extra 2 games are meaningless. Except of course the 26 women. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal Opinion: Not a surprising result, but I think it's not enough. A player who was out for the season and did a little gambling on others teams for which he had no inside info and was fully forthright when "caught" was suspended a full year. A guy who almost assuredly was a serial sexual predator of women but was intelligent enough not to leave enough evidence for criminal conviction gets 6 games. Not even a half a season. Big Ben all over again. The NFL has a problem with discipline when it's players hurt women. Unfortunately I think that problem will bite them in the ass over the long term, especially given how hard the NFL is trying to win over the growing female sports-fan demographic. But it is what it is. I'm going to stop watching the NFL over it, even if I will no longer be a passive Watson fan as I once was. I certainly hope he never plays for the Jets now, and I was a huge supporting of drafting him (in the Adams draft year). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgivs21 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Seems to be a lot of misunderstanding here. The NFL’s new procedure for imposing discipline under the Personal Conduct Policy incorporates a Disciplinary Officer, who is jointly appointed and paid by the NFL and the NFL Players Association. The person retained for that position is former federal Judge Sue L. Robinson. Robinson is a 3rd party former judge who oversaw the 3 day disciplinary hearing on Watson. She heard arguments from the NFL and NFLPA over the 3 day period, along with receiving some other written materials afterwards. Robinson then goes and reviews everything and determines if there is a violation of the NFLs personal conduct policy and if so how severe the punishment. After her ruling, the NFL or the NFLPA have the option to appeal. That appeal goes to Roger Goodell. A lot of unwarranted outrage here against the NFL. They did not make this decision, a 3rd party did. To me, it seems like the accusations and evidence wasn't nearly as strong as the media lead a lot here to believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most definitely disappointed as well. I hope the nfl appeals and something much more substantial is handed down. Nfl has 3 days to decide if they will appeal. Watson through the PA has already said he doesn't want to appeal.... obviously.... that dirt bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
