I'm pretty sure this will be vetted, but I'd be surprised if the NFL re-opens the cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there was a condition of Watson going to therapy and getting approved by a professional... But any new cases seems like a stipulation someone would add.

Blaze Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Basically the NFL is going to turn blind to this unless a different type of allegation comes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll give it until the start of the fiscal 2023 season - March 1, 2023. @ET80 I know you don’t think I forgot about our bet did you? 😂 League year didn’t start officially till yesterday and looks like this happened before then directly dealing with Deshaun’s situation. Don’t worry I got your sig ready for you 😉 Edited March 16 by brownie man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texans were fined for a Salary Cap mistake, not for the *actions* of Watson at the Houstonian. This was a fine due to an accounting error, not his *actions* at the Houstonian - as your tweet plainly stated. Nice try, but - you can leave now. (I had honestly forgotten about this, so thanks for reminding me). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you what - I’ll bet you it’s over for the Texans. If I’m right, you never post in this sub again. If I’m wrong, I’ll let you make a reasonable request of me. But if you look at the bet it was regarding the Deshaun Watson era. The Houstonian was a central part of the entire saga. I would disagree here. You all didn’t get stripped a 5th round pick for nothing that wasn’t substantial. A 5th round pick is a legitimate punishment. I said y’all would get stripped a pick and y’all literally got stripped a pick. I see no way how you can read what you wrote and think you didn’t lose the bet. Just look what you wrote.

ET80 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Just now, brownie man said: But if you look at the bet it was regarding the Deshaun Watson era. The Houstonian was a central part of the entire saga. But in no way is it related to what Deshaun Watson was punished for. Watson himself said the Texans didn’t know what he was doing there in his civil trial. So no - this is not the same. This was an accounting error perpetrated by the dumbest GM in sports history and not related to the crimes allegedly committed by Watson. Had there been a semi competent GM in place to convert $26,000 in base salary to a signing bonus payable via membership fees to the Houstonian, this is above board. I don’t know how you don’t get that, given the punishment as announced by Schefter and the NFL. You’re spinning it to meet your definition, and pretty much everything stated on the subject disagrees with you. 2 minutes ago, brownie man said: I said y’all would get stripped a pick and y’all literally got stripped a pick. For an accounting error, not being complicit in these crimes. You also said that 30 settlements said the Texans knew something and that’s why it wasn’t over - this plainly is a different situation. Stop while you’re ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 7 minutes ago, brownie man said: You all didn’t get stripped a 5th round pick for nothing that wasn’t substantial. A 5th round pick is a legitimate punishment. Because the Texans did circumvent the salary cap by providing a monetary value to Watson without reporting it against the cap. Teams are punished frequently for subverting the salary cap (Denver in ‘99, Dallas in 2011) and this is in line with that. You hear “punishment” and “Watson” and you incorrectly correlate this event to his civil and criminal cases. These are not the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
