Outkick ^ | 3-19-21 | JOE KINSEY

Posted on 03/20/2021 6:59:45 AM PDT by dynachrome

Tony Buzbee says he now represents 12 women who will have claims against Deshaun Watson. “We are now representing 12 women and we will file five more cases in due course,” Buzbee said Friday. “we have spoken to more than 10 additional women.”

Other information learned during Buzbee’s Friday press conference:

7 African Americans / 2 Hispanic / 3 Caucasian 3 married / 1 engaged / all others single mothers One was referred to Deshaun by Texans Quincy Avery (HOU QB coach) referred Deshaun to one of his clients Agent/lawyer for Deshaun showed “dismissive behavior and incredible arrogance,” so had to go public with lawsuits Buzbee said he doesn’t need the fame & the women don’t want it Buzbee adds that the Houston Police Department is now looking into the allegations that are being made An incident happened as recently as THIS month — AFTER they had been in contact with Watson’s camp Took shots at “Arm Chair Quarterbacks” who wouldn’t say stuff to his face Buzbee stopped counting after the 10th death threat Buzbee says he lives near McNair family, but wouldn’t know them if he saw them

Cuomo is up 7-0 in the all important category of women who have gone public.

Re: "Buzbee, their lawyer"

Keeping all these allegations anonymous and non-criminal is an interesting strategy.

I will guess that Buzbee very much wants Watson to continue his football career because that would mean more money for his clients.

If he destroys Watson's earning power, the value of any settlements will be stuck at how much Watson earned in his first four years.

National Felon League at its’ best

Yep and I would shed NO TEARS if the Texans went under. ANY team who showed any sympathies with the “kneelers” can all go bankrupt on their way to hell!! Baseball, Basketball included!!!

A couple of years ago Watson seemed to me - from afar - as a level headed good fellow. Last year when the ANTIFA riots were going on he made some comments that made my ears perk up, comments about making his white teammate uncomfortable over race. Uh oh. Then he demanded a trade because he had insisted that he get to select the next coach and he wanted a black guy but they team didn't let him do it. My thought: I would NOT want that sort of arrogant jackalope in my building. He disrespectes his teammates (but only the white ones) AND the front office ... no thanks.

Now this. This guy turned out to be a class one jerk (I'm working hard to adhere to the no profanity rules).

I’m not sure why you’re telling me this.
My issue is with women being anonymous while his name is dragged through the mud publicly.
I also stated that I think he’s probably guilty.
I said I don’t trust the women, nothing about the lawyer at all.

What the NFL and other sports leagues should have done was to put rookies who sign a huge deal into a 30-day financial and social program that teaches them the value of money & staying out of trouble.

I think all rookies do that, but just the money part. The NFL doesn't have the stones to lecture black players on behavior. And I don't blame them. Well intentioned good advice will get you sued into oblivion these days.

What morons. They get paid multiple millions and make fortunes if managed correctly they are set for life. Show up to work and play with skillful efforts. Don’t cause troubles and pick a nice woman treat her well.
Who wants to trade away first round draft picks now for DW? Character matters greatly.

Criminal Case vs. Civil Case

A criminal case requires a crime be reported to the police. An attorney will be appointed for you if you don't have one. If found guilty you could go to prison.

A civil case doesn't provide you with the Constitutional rights that a criminal case does. The penalty is monetary. No jail time. That's what the Watson case is. Money.

Consider the OJ case. He was found to be "not guilty" in a criminal court. Then Nicole Goldman's family brought a civil case against him. He lost and was ordered to pay $33.5 million.

So in this case Watson might have to pay these women (and their lawyer) a lot of money.

On an old sitcom a young married woman was crying to her father that her husband had cheated on her with her friend, Rita. Dad said something like, “You’ve gotta figure that when you name a girl ‘Rita’ you’re gonna get a slut.”

When I was younger, 'Rita' = 'Pam'.

I think all the women are only filing a civil suit, not a criminal one.

“Ever notice this doesn’t happen to white players?
That’s because white players quickly settle down and have families.”

Thugs are thugs. White black or brown.
Plenty of white thugs out there as well.
I do not agree with your assertion that “this doesn’t happen to white players”

No blacks where I grew up. We were blessed but naive.

I had, now, a murderer and a convicted double kidnapping/rapist in my Freshmen homeroom. I say Freshmen because those two retards failed, and didn’t make it to my Sophomore homeroom.

The lawyer has already destroyed his earing power. DeShaun Watson will not be playing this year. He is done with the Texans and no tea is going to trade for him with this hanging over him. His cost to a new team is in the $30 million dollar range. The teams that might take him don’t have that kind of cap space to spend. Not even the Patriots.

I think these complaints are all bogus. First not provable un the masseuses’ were taking pictures. Second, The likelihood that he interacted with this many woman in the last couple of years who suddenly think they were dissed is statistically off the charts.

This is a money grab by the lawyer. But, I suspect that this was set up from the team owners/management to keep him in Houston. If that could be proven, DeShaun would own the team. I would be taking to lawyers about this if I was him.

Yeah, but he's good at reading defenses and has that quick release thing going on plus he can scramble when necessary, often gaining more yards rushing than his running backs.

What more do you want from the guy?

I understand the difference between a criminal case and a civil case. Your previous post made it sound like there’s a difference between a “lawsuit” and a “civil complaint.” I don’t think there’s a difference between these at all.

Watson's numbers are as good as Russell Wilson in Seattle, and Wilson has a salary cap hit of $37 million this year.

Even with a COVID related constraint on team salary caps in 2021, Watson would get a three year guarantee around $105 million.

As far as the validity of the claims against Watson - I have no idea.

I heard about these issues for the first time just a couple hours ago.

Plus vasectomies with regular follow-up fertility tests. Videos of the reactions from future gold diggers/baby momma wannabes upon learning the sad news would be priceless.

Right but he wants to leave so he would have waived that, no?
