He sounds more prolific than Wilt Chamberlain. After Wilt's boasting, I once calculated he would have needed to satisfy about four different women each night, with never a breather, starting at age 15 to get to the end of his trophy list...more if he cut back for the playoffs...

He must have been good, because no women ever complained about him, to my knowledge.

I always liked Bill Cosby, more so when he suggested he might not have been that easy to like on the sets in his younger years. I still think those ancient "I Spys" were in my top ten TV series favorites.

Unlike Wilt, he seems to be reticent about his past. Nevertheless, when 100 people tell you you're dead, maybe it's time to lie down

I'd like to know how much of a secret it was. Public relations people will protect a cash cow icon. Victims and the National Enquirer won't on a normal day. Has this been reported before, and did I miss it?

Cosby has been fighting these stories for many years.

Remember that a police report was filed in 2000 by one woman and after a 2004 rape and the resulting lawsuit where 13 more women came forward to support the "drugging/raping" method he uses, he settled out of court in 2006 on the 2004 rape.

This was reported in many sources back then but only now got legs because of a number of things that created a perfect storm for Cosby, including a big mistake he made on social media as he was promoting his new big media push.
