    I'm not sure what y'all were expecting from a group of men whose job pretty much involves allowing inmates to get raped daily. The only difference here is the gender, and that they took a bribe.

    Yep. They tried and he ended up getting less because of the player's union. Good call.

    This is truly shameful. The NFL is truly garbage. Anyway, glad I stopped paying attention to this lease a while ago. ******** them....

    Charlie15, do you really believe that prejudice is an emotional commitment to ignorance? If so, does that include when the ignorance involves certainty about NFL disciplinary policies?

    OK, OK, this is my last gloat post.

    A)You gloat about some weird shit.
    B)The judge basically pointed out that all Goodell's prior wrist slaps for sexual/violent conduct made it difficult for her to justify a season long suspension.

    Maybe. :D

    But if you look back, people were giving me a LOT of shit for wondering why folks were so sure Watson was going to get this big punishment.

    You might want to rethink your post. Gloating that he only got 6 games for sexually assaulting what appears to be at least 24 women.

    Not today, Satan.

    I refer you to my previous comment.

    If everyone reading this thread is just a little bit more informed about reality, well, I've made my contribution.

    One Browns said that Watson would play games this season. He appears to have been right.

    Was there ever a declaration of what woukd happen to Watson, or only one about what the NFL wpuld try? I ask because, as I stated before, Charlie's post predicts an act by the league, not an outcome.

    Words mean things, children.

    So it turns out it's 11 games.
    So that's what, one game per every 2.7 sexual assaults? :cautious:
    Considering the fact that players have been made to sit out 70+ games for smoking weed, I don't see how you interpret this any other way than that the NFL and the NFLPA really, really hate women.

    Since that would be over 4 NFL seasons, I’m going to assume you’re comparing apples to brooms here. OK, fine. What player got 70 games for weed, and in what sport, and when?

    Josh Gordon but those missed games were apparently a combination of suspensions for DUIs and for marijuana, so I was wrong in claiming all of those were for weed.

    So the judge has codified the NFL's desire to define deviancy down?

    Give it time, players who have a rape accusation will actually get boosted in the draft order or a salary bump in free agency.

    I believe that is a Briticism.
    Beauty spot = a place popular for its natural beauty.
    So a beauty spot pond would be a pond at such a place, I guess.

    Hindoestaanse Prianka is Nederlandse Miss Universe: ‘Dacht dat ze voor blond zouden gaan’

    Persoonlijk verhaalHaar toekomst zag er lange tijd niet goed uit. Prianka Raghoe (25) werd als kind geconfronteerd met huiselijk geweld en had als gevolg daarvan een moeilijke jeugd. Dat heeft ze allang achter zich gelaten. De Haagse is onlangs gekroond tot Miss Supermodel Universe Nederland en lijkt een mooie carrière tegemoet te gaan als model. Toch vindt ze dat niet het allerbelangrijkste. ,,Ik wil graag andere kwetsbare vrouwen helpen.’’

    Hindu Prianka is Dutch Miss Universe: 'Thought they would go for blonde' Personal story
    Her future did not look good for a long time. Prianka Raghoe (25) was confronted with domestic violence as a child and as a result had a difficult childhood. She has long since put that behind her. The Hague was recently crowned Miss Supermodel Universe Netherlands and seems to be heading for a great career as a model. Yet she does not think that is the most important thing. "I would like to help other vulnerable women."

    This entire thread is a gut punch, that poor woman.
     
  24. I wonder why we almost always reed about that kind of men from the Anglo Saxon world. This kind of men in the Netherlands or Belgium is a rarity,

    Unfortunately that is not true.

    There are several high profile cases here each year that involve murder/rape/hyper-violent sexual assault.
