The worst part for the Texans is they won't get close to value if they trade Watson know with this hanging over his hear. It's a risk, take what you can get now thinking he's guilty or wait and perhaps have a guy who is un-tradeable once everything is settled. This could be a franchise that is a bottom dweller for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And clearly his tweet is like “are you sure you don’t want to trade me…” haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want everyone to have a descent standard of living. I’m tired of these rich a******* continuing to exploit the game and leave us fighting for scraps. And the way to do that isn't "take" from the rich and give to the poor, it's force the rich to share the profits with the working class. But nobody on the right seems to want to engage with that idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a poorly run organization for quite some time. Not sure who's running things now.....some Ex Patriot? Not sure - but until they get that right, it will continue to be a loser. The worst teams stay the worst teams because they dont have the people running things to make them better over an extended period. Thats been proven over and over again across multiple sports.

It's the government's role to ensure that there is an equitable playing field and incentivize economic policies that result in the greatest net good for the collection of people it is comprised of. This doesn't happen at all here, but "force" is not the answer, either (at least by my working definition of the word). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More so because they appear to be setup for a good playoff run. And he hasn’t really had that in his career. Sucks that he won’t get to experience it as a player on the field.

Leader Posted October 28, 2021 Author Share Posted October 28, 2021 ESPN - The attorneys for some former Washington Football Team employees rejected NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's reasoning for not making the investigation into the organization public, saying in a letter that their clients wanted anonymity but also a written report. Goodell had said in a news conference at the league meetings Tuesday that they did not release a written report into the nearly year-long investigation of the organization and owner Dan Snyder because some who were interviewed wanted anonymity and therefore no public report. In a two-page letter to Goodell, Lisa Banks and Debra Katz stated that their clients -- they represent 40 women who made allegations of sexual harassment while working for Washington -- wanted only protection. They wanted the findings released. The letter stated, "While many who came forward feared retaliation by Dan Snyder, and therefore requested their names be kept confidential, they never envisioned that all their efforts and the efforts of Beth Wilkinson and her team would result in no written report of findings, and no real accountability for Dan Snyder or the WFT. Had they known this, they would not have participated." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad the attorney called him out, but any 'written report' is going to protect the league, water down the findings and it will be business as usual. I'm more and more of the mindset that I hope they release everything and burn the whole thing down. My guess is at the very least the findings would cause Snyder to have to sell the franchise. I think that is best case scenario for the NFL. Edited October 28, 2021 by Old Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think Goodell is an ******* though. It appears pretty clear they are hiding some nefarious **** that happened with the WFT. Perhaps found some information in those emails which might paint a bad picture for others in the NFL, besides Gruden which we already know about. Also, the NFL went 'woke' a few years ago and now it's biting them in the *** with the cancel culture. Air it all out and let the chips fall where they may.
