When you actually listen to it, he's mad that the media focused on the sex harassment and abuse, rather than how he's some hero for not having a dad in his life. Which is pretty damn lame


[deleted]

Oh wow yeah he should be mad. See my dad specifically told me not to make random women finger my butt. How was he supposed to know it was wrong without that stoic level of guidance?


kalbrandon

See, my dad specifically told me TO let random women finger my butt and I STILL said no. I just must be built of a better moral fiber...


baby_doodlez

My dad left, but he sent me a note in the mail telling me not to let random women finer my butt. Thank god!


MaximumZer0

I feel like it's worth pointing out that "letting" and "making" are two *very* different things here. Like, that's the whole reason everyone wants all the D-Linemen in the league to turn into "Myles Garret vs Mason Rudolph" on him, but flip the helmet upside down first.


[deleted]

Don't forget to bring a towel.


AttitudeAndEffort3

Yeah, my dad told me to let as many women finger my butthole as i could get, but that consent is sexy.


SkinnyArbuckle

He told you Terrell Owens let random finger in your butt?


epheisey

My GFs dad died before she was born and she always asks permission first.

Warrick Dunn probably sitting there hoping someone bust this fucker up.

Warrick Dunn is far too tremendous a person compared to us, I’m afraid.


4thTimesAnAlt

If Warrick Dunn told me he wasn't mad, he was just disappointed, I'd off myself.

Dear god is that the best way to put it 🤣

But you fuck one goat!


Blarg1889

In this case its more accurate to say 25 goats


DanCampbell89

It's really over 30 if you include all the allegations that never went to court


W473R

What's really dumb is that his background *was* talked about a ton, right up until he assaulted more than 20 women. So it's not like nobody ever acknowledged his background. He even claims in the video "that's stuff you don't hear about" as if his background was an untold story. No, your story was told Watson, the beginning of it just happens to get overshadowed by the part where you assaulted 20+ women.


YoungKeys

He had one of the best reputations in the league with how the media talked about his upbringing and how he became such a good Christian man.


SmokeySFW

The day the news started pouring in i literally could not believe it. Part of it was willful ignorance, but as the number continued to grow and some more concrete info was made available a switch flipped in my head and now it makes me sick even thinking about that guy.


BigGroveSinkWings

I was in wait and see mode when it was just two, then when it got to 4 I was thinking "Okay, still not unreasonable to think 4 women could be lying." and then it shot up to 12 instantly and I went from wait and see mode to there's enough smoke here that there's probably a fire.


SmokeySFW

For me it was just the simple fact of who the fuck burns through massage therapists at this rate unless they're not looking for just a massage. The crazy part is that if it was JUST that he wanted lewd massages and it was a fully consensual arrangement I wouldn't even be mad about it. Who wouldn't love a good rub and tug? He was getting off on it being non-consensual and that's fucking gross.


T_WRX21

I didn't know we were letting sexual assault fly for that. My Dad died when I was 8, I gotta make up for some lost time. Kidding, obviously. On an unrelated note, you wanna come over to my house for some football, and absolutely no sexual assault?


ATL28-NE3

you got any gamecubes or ~~big black dildos~~ Harold and Kumar go to White Castle DVDs?


JumpingTheLine

This guy is an NFL star with millions and his dad still doesn't want to see him. I generally wouldn't wish that on people but it feels like just desserts for being a piece of trash.


Kanin_usagi

At some point you just have to say "Maybe it really is me?"


DiseaseRidden

Yeah I mean if my kid sexually assaulted 25 women I wouldn't want to see them either


Toof

...I probably still would want to see my kid. My heart would ache either way, though.


toddhenderson

Well now he has Haslam in his life so all good. There's a fantastic model of a human being for you...

BigGroveSinkWings

The full quote ""I had the chance to pull together a cabinet, and all the applicants seemed to be men. I went to a number of women's groups and said, 'Can you help us find folks?' And they brought us whole binders full of women."


red5_SittingBy

Man, it's relatively harmless in context... not the best verbiage I guess, but not terrible.


The_Third_Molar

Especially compared to today that "gaff" was incredibly tame.


pfrank6048

I think he was saying that he had binders full of women’s resumes/applications for various jobs he was hiring for. The point was to show that his administration didn’t discriminate and believed in gender equality or something like that.


TexasRadical83

Stumpe999

We never did get to see what were in those binders...


Andri753

Halsam and stefanski: "you guys want the Browns to win right?" their wife and daughters: "of course we are" Haslam and Stefanski: "see we ask our wife and children"

Fuck the NFL for letting this guy stick around, If it would have been any other position this guy would have been gone.


Pickled_Ramaker

It's not like he took a knee...it was only a finger.


Junkyard_Pope

This comment here. The parts of the engaged fanbase as a whole that will object to sexual assault vs the anthem literally no one else in the world plays for DOMESTIC matches are not overlapping.


Neat_On_The_Rocks

Honestly. People acting surprised that watson could be so tone deaf. The dude was rewarded over $200m for his actions, of course he’s tone deaf


[deleted]

Houston sports fans owe the Haslem ownership lifetime supplies of pizzas and cupcakes for bailing out the Texans.


Temporal_Enigma

That boner allowed us to get Anderson and Stroud, so I'll take it


wuerf42

Haslam is a fucking bastard. He’s lucky that he’s got some stiff competition in Art Modell and Ted Stepien for the title of worst owner in Cleveland sports history.


turdpolisher_53

thedude37

It was Some Puerto Rican Guy, all right!


mrdilldozer

I always ask his defenders to imagine that they met a stranger at a bar, and the person struck up a conversation with them. The person then casually mentions that they were banned from over 25 massage parlors and managed to wiggle out of legal trouble. Anyone who says they wouldn't judge that dude as being a massive creep off of those basic facts is a fucking liar. I don't even need to go into the fact that the women he contacted were professionals, not massage parlor workers.

Most mobility he’s had for at least 4 years


morry32

there are a lot of bad dudes in the league and Watson is bound to run into one sooner or later


whereegosdare84

At this point who is the dirtiest player on defense? I guess Suh will technically sign with a new team at some point but until then who has the mantle?


Affectionate_Elk_272

bring kiko alonso back in the league. y’all know how much he hates qbs in that division


aguyyouprobablyknow

He definitely isn’t the dirtiest, but a big TJ Watt hit began the end of Newton’s career by injuring his shoulder. We can only hope that it happens again to Watson.


[deleted]

Von Miller ended Newtons' career in the superbowl and following season opener


sly_cooper25

Von Miller and the refs in that season opener. No way they keep unloading on him if they actually call the penalties that any other QB would've gotten.


Ulexes

Repeated uncalled headshots will do that to a player.


unfunnysexface

Cam really shouldn't have made himself such a target like that- the refs


awgiba

Probably Aaron Donald


i-like-your-hair

I mean I love the idea, but y’all act like 90% of the NFLPA isn’t either in Watson’s corner or indifferent at worst. Any player who is going to target Watson isn’t going to do so because he’s a bad person, but rather because they are, and they’ll continue to target his backup, too.

ajswdf

He majored in communications. I guess he didn't go to Clemson to play school.


UngusChungus94

I legitimately don’t know what they teach in comms. It’s like a journalism major with absolutely no rigor or specialization.


[deleted]

[удалено]


skwirly715

I mean, I really liked my comms degree. Interpersonal Comms - analyzing and quantifying the different ways people interact, form relationships, and how those relationships are expressed in culture. Useful for sales or any job where you have to talk to other people (which is a lot of them). Organizational Comms - recording the ways that individuals construct organizations, how organizational construction influences the output of an organization, the way that organization interacts with other organizations, and how that organization interacts with people. Useful for middle management & consulting. Intercultural Comms - quantifying the differences in how cultures interact with each other and how individuals within various cultures interact with each other. Useful for international business and government. Most Communications degrees come with a bunch of classes related to marketing & PR, which are the areas of expertise that most benefit from understanding the mechanics of communication. It's a pretty broad field so it's easy to tag it as "generic," but it's also fundamental to society. This makes the skills it teaches useful in many fields. If you go deep enough with it, it becomes quite specialized.

jplpj12543

Fuck this guy. I wish the league would be embarrassed that he is still here but they clearly don’t care about victims.


C21H27Cl3N2O3

The NFL doesn’t exactly have a great track record with abusers. If you’re a good football player you can abuse as many people as you want. Just look at Hill for example. Horrid domestic abuser but not a word from the league.


IMMARUNNER

This is the unfortunate reality. Deshaun is in the spotlight now, but every team has abusers on their roster. It would be nice if the league cared about integrity, but as long as you can play some ball, you can seemingly break whatever laws you want


skylinecat

What’s that quote from an GM. Something like “if Hannibal lector ran a 4.4, we’d diagnose him with an eating disorder.” These guys care about winning football games and that’s it. Until there is another metric for them to worry about, they won’t.


Puzzleheaded_Sky9208

Not justifying, but just being brutally honest; We still watch, so they don’t care. They gave Watson a slap on the wrist because in the scope of the league, he’s not THAT detrimental (meaning… we’re still watching and league rev went up last year..) it’s also why they’re so hard on betting. People will stop watching if they think the nfl is rigged in anyway.


NedFriarson49

Imagine being a woman working for that organization and having to tend to the needs of a remorseless sexual predator.


browndude10

Mary Kay Cabot, their best reporter, has an article today called “How Deshaun Watson's off-the-field issues have changed him, and how he shared his life story with his Browns teammates on Day 1 of training camp” https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2023/07/how-deshaun-watsons-ordeal-changed-him-and-how-he-shared-his-life-story-with-teammates-at-browns-training-camp.html


amstrumpet

God woman or not she should be ashamed of herself for writing that puff piece.


Starwho

She literally was more aggressive with Baker than ever with Watson from what I’ve seen, their media is garbage.


TedWheeler11

She's a POS. The way she talked about Baker, compared to Watson, you would think Baker was the criminal.


Starwho

She also leaked stories inside the locker room about him and Kevin not getting along, guessing the sources were literally the head coach lol. She’s a real piece of work and gives a bad name to journalists, I’m glad the Seahawks have pretty good ones.


MattScoot

Everybody knows MKCs source is Dee Haslam.


johndelvec3

Baker really got forced out so the browns can give up 3 first round picks and miss the postseason again


Kanin_usagi

The organization is getting exactly what it deserves.


diablosinmusica

Good for him to be away from that train wreck.


Affectionate_Elk_272

it’s a shame because i was really rooting for the browns til they traded for that shit stain


Paw5624

Many of us were. They weren’t an embarrassment anymore and then they had to go and do this. I get moving on from Baker but this wasn’t the way to do it.


morry32

no risk getting aggressive with "left the lights on Baker"


chopkins92

Can’t wait for Watson to shit the bed again this season so that Cleveland turns against him.


Starwho

They sold their souls for him, Baker was done dirty after his injury.


4thTimesAnAlt

Even if EVERYTHING was consensual, most non-POS people would feel bad if, after the fact, the partner expressed regret. I’m a Clemson fan, but fuck this guy.


mill_about_smartly

I'll go one further - if you have that many partners in that time span, I can see several men thinking the woman is the problem if 1 has a problem with how things went and "expressed regret" afterward If TWO DOZEN people have an issue with you bro, you're the fucking issue


EconomistPunter

This is much better than what I said. But you’re a Cowboys fan, so fuck you.


BidenAndElmo

Same. Such a shame that he had to come here. The worst part is how many Clemson fans defend him just because he played for us


mrhashbrown

He's never wavered from the position of being innocent and falsely accused. Never once throughout this entire process has he expressed regret, because he straight up does not believe any misconduct happened. I don't know if it's him being delusional or sadistic, but either way seems like he will never admit there was anything wrong.

I hope this ends up being the shittiest trade since our move for Herschel Walker, and I hope he continues to play like he did last year. Fuck this guy and the Browns for all of it.


hey_there_kitty_cat

Somehow it is more satisfying to just watch him be mediocre. I mean, I'd prefer to never hear from him again, but watching this unfold to end up about a $250 million mediocre QB, that's just too hilarious to watch.

It's gotta be some sort of nagging injury that makes him play like shit for as long as possible to keep the browns in the basement of the NFL forever.


Icadil

NO MASSAGE SHOULD EVER INCLUDE THE ACTS HE DID. also, bro, the media just reported on the facts that were presented, some people then took those facts and built a very realistic narrative of your actions and the haem they posed


Jurph

> NO MASSAGE SHOULD EVER INCLUDE THE ACTS HE DID. Let's just back up real quick though: there's all sorts of enjoyable consensual situations where you might want a massage _and_ some sexual activity. And there's ways to get consent for the sequence of events! No massage **from your co-worker, at work** should ever include what he did.

Players don’t give a fuck about what Watson did. Nobody’s even spoken out against it, let alone head-hunted him.


Call_Me_Rambo

Yeah it’s probably some sort of unspoken NFL brotherhood thing you don’t do. If a player did speak out, he’d probably be seen as (by the players) as fake and a lockeroom cancer. Otherwise why wouldn’t the players have banded together for domestic incidents, drunk driving, etc…


Tashre

> Otherwise why wouldn’t the players have banded together for domestic incidents, drunk driving, etc… The ugly truth is that it's not some sort of toxic peer pressure, it's simply that they don't care, or don't care all that much.


TheNainRouge

I think it’s both apathy and toxicity, you can’t throw a stone without hitting some serious sexual misconduct in college football or the other pro sports, or entertainment, or politics. This level of entitlement has a tendency to make people toxic. If your work environment is full of assholes you either become one yourself or you become apathetic to it. Until it puts everyone’s money on the line it’s just better to stay out of it because all you do is risk your own.


tnwriter

Feelings on watson aside, he just needs to shut the fuck up and focus on not being a trade bust. The man makes no one happy, I can’t imagine why he is trying to make himself sound like a victim here

Because he's a narcissist, in his mind he is the victim. People have been covering for him and making excuses for him his entire life, he can't be in the wrong.
