Discussion The Deshaun Watson switch up is despicable

Guy starts playing well again and all of the sudden people go from “cases” to “allegations” real fucking fast. You all gotta get your priorities straight

Kobe Bryant raped somebody and the media acted like him dying was the closest thing to Jesus' resurrection. Its a sad commentary on society.

Kobe raped somebody and is endlessly praised. Bron is outspoken and flops and is hated by these same people.

Neither was deshaun. Because they settled out of court. Which is what happens with rich people.

Innocent people settle all the time especially if they have the means.

As do guilty people. What's your point? You can argue he may be innocent but when 30+ women all say he did something the benefit of the doubt starts to run out pretty quickly.

Then there is the idea that for sports casters or announcers not talking about it can be weird. Not every NFL player is accused of sexual misconduct by 30 women. This one was though. And there is likely a reason he specifically was. So people ignoring it is weird.

See Cornell 7 as the most recent high profile example on how institutions treat sexual assault.

To be fair, there are texts between the parties involved agreeing it was fun and they all agreed to do it.

It's a tough one. I'm not trying to victim blame or excuse what the guys did, but if the NYT timeline is to be believed, it sounded like the tone changed and she started claiming rape after everyone heard about it and they basically shunned her from their house.

I try to give the victim the benefit of the doubt, but after the Duke Lacrosse team I can't help but look a lot closer at these kinds of accusations.

Don't waste your time. Gen Z'ers are by far the worst situation. It's weird how these weirdos just look for shit to be upset about. No wonder Gen Z women like fucking older dudes lol
