I'm and man and all women are fucking liars.
One week after a scathing report from the New York Times accused Deshaun Watson of using at least 66 female massage therapists over a 17-month span, the Cleveland Browns quarterback continued to proclaim his innocence.
Fielding questions from reporters Tuesday morning in his first public comments since March, Watson struck the same tone that he has maintained since the accusations first surfaced.
Like Ive said, Ive never assaulted anyone, never harassed anyone, never disrespected anyone, never forced anyone to do anything, Watson said.
I know that first sentence is not what he "actually" said, but that's my biased takeaway.

Sounds like big rich QB expected whatever HE wanted. I said that because a huge part of every pro athletes life is recovery. Recovering to play the next game. Especially in football. Even the NBA finals is spanned out - some for TV but also for recovery. As far as I know, once an athlete gets a team together (massage, physical training, dietitian) they stick with that team. 66?

Doesn't everybody believe her?

(2,204 posts)Last year he agreed to a plea deal sentencing him to 14 years in prison.
I never heard anything bad about Kellen Winslow, his father. We were in law school together for a while (I was in the day program and he was in the night program at the University of San Diego, though I think he finished somewhere else).

(21,957 posts)I still don't see how he has avoided criminal charges though.
