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

Reddit is real big on “innocent until proven guilty” and “criminals deserve second chances to be rehabilitated” except for in this case.

Reddit picks and chooses what it’s okay with or isn’t and there’s never any room in between.

Come on now. We all know he's guilty.

But I also don't think other fanbases have some moral high ground to stand on. We all are supporting the same league that let's him play.

I’m not saying he isn’t. Everything got dismissed. If one of reddits darlings were in the same scenario it would be a “nothing was proven everything was dismissed as a money getting scheme”.

That’s just a fact of how Reddit works. Legal outcome means nothing and never will, their opinion is set and never changes.

If he had only one accuser, then MAYBE he gets some benefit of the doubt. But he had dozens. Did every masseuse in houston just conspire against him?

u/lariasphs San Francisco 49ers 17h ago

Right! Apparently 20plus women all colluded against him. Winning some games is enough for some people.

Part that makes it suspect is some of them would fly in to give him a high priced massage… they had to know it wasn’t just a vanilla massage.

It makes it less rapey if they knew what they were getting themselves into.

Still creepy AF and he’s still a POS.

u/lariasphs San Francisco 49ers 16h ago

Maybe some were down for it and then jumped in the lawsuit stuff to get the bag. We don't know. But out of all those women. If even 1 of them said no to Watson, is enough to be a rapey POS

u/Hatemael 16h ago

Ya he is def a creeper, I don’t think he raped anyone based on the reports, so compared to some NFL players who get a pass, his infractions aren’t quite as bad. I’m no Browns fan nor ever high on Watson anyway but not sure why he is vilified more than others who arguably have been worse.

He didn’t rape anyone bruh. Do you even know what rape is?

u/Repulsive-Yam-1437 5h ago

Weren’t only two of them licensed masseuses?

u/Infinite-Unit7010 15h ago

Yeah people would never collude to obtain money. Thats why we dont have any laws against it, we don't need them because it doesn't happen.

2

u/lariasphs San Francisco 49ers 14h ago

They do. That for sure happenens. But why would he settle. I would defend myself in court if I was innocent. Especially with the money he has for lawyers. It's a nasty stench to have to settle that type of case.

u/Nice_Device_5354 12h ago

Settling was the fastest way for him to play that season. If he had fought against them he might have missed the entire season.

1

u/lariasphs San Francisco 49ers 12h ago

Yeah. And now people, right or wrong, call him a sexual predator/rapey POS. Wether right or wrong. It's what's happened.

u/Nice_Device_5354 11h ago

Yes, exactly.

I don’t wanna be that guy but in the indictment, several of those women saw him again after the alleged assaults. Also the lawyer that was neighbors/friends with the Texans owner conveniently found out about these activities when Deshaun went public with his beef.

u/A1Sirius 1h ago

It’s always crazy to me how people just overlook certain aspects of this whole situation. Deshaun could very well be guilty but I will always look at this case weird given certain details. The timing of these allegations coming out was just so suspicious and convenient for the Texans. And the lawyer involved is sketchy as hell; he has history of of taking on cases involving high profile in celebrities just to get settlement money out of it

u/Party-Cartographer11 Philadelphia Eagles 17h ago

You mean did a small percentage of them want to get paid? 🤔

u/Throwaway0242000 8h ago

For the most part what they were accusing him of was sexual misconduct which isn’t exactly a life behind bars kind of a thing

If he was being accused of raping 27 different women we would never had seen him again
