tiamat63 Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Creditable reports that the Bills brass was made aware of allegations long before the (civil) suit was filed and the resulting media/public pressure (see; image) Careful who you attempt to canonize. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not canonizing at all - they probably heard of it, but didn't give up three FIRST round draft picks and a historically biggest guaranteed contract to get him, either. More information came out, they had a chance to talk to him, learned MORE information and then he was toast. the browns are toast, their reputation is trashed. The Bills easily fixed the situation. The Browns are stuck in the mire. I suppose fans who are sick of the crap - will watch the browns games and will be disgusted to hear about watson every single game. Because of the browns stupidity and slimey desperation - they are locked in. New information just makes them look lower than the slime on the bottom of a swamp. https://nypost.com › 2022 › 08 › 27 › bills-sean-mcdermott-new-information-on-punter-matt-araiza-rape-allegations Bills' Sean McDermott: New information on punter Matt Araiza rape ... 2 days agoBills head coach Sean McDermott said he has learned new information in the last day concerning the rape allegations his punter, Matt Araiza, faces, and that he wants to learn more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ariza was regarded as the best punter, yet two punters were drafted ahead of him. The Bills, like the Texans, knew No media backlash towards them like the Browns.

Kvoethe Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Sounds like no evidence, but wait till he is famous and $$$$, then go for a civil suit. How many years ago did this supposedly happen? Lawsuit of opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, the Bills weren't buying into the rumor just yet? The civil suits against Watson were already filed when the Browns perused him. Not at all similar situations. It was appropriate that the Bills cut him now since the allegations have resulted in lawsuits rather than cut him based on allegations alone.

He took her into a room with supposedly 2 other guys.....besides assaulting,they pulled piercings out...and did other things. It was reported to authorities. And i do believe they said a test was also done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some people out there want it to be so they can point their fingers and say what a bad person he is so they can feel better about themselves. But it's not and that's why the Browns front office is sticking by him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if that had happened to be Josh Allen instead, you think the Bills would have cut him immediately? Fat change there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad has always been a big film guy, loves cameras, movie-making, etc. Worked in the theater business for years. So he was one of the early people to plunk down an insane amount of money when VCRs came on the market. Like, I think you could have easily bought a dozen VCRS in the late 80s for the price he paid for his first one, I think in 1979 or '80. One of the first things he recorded was the '80 Browns vs Raiders playoff game. I remember, as a 5 year old, watching that game in the months after over and over again, thinking that if I watched it enough eventually Sipe would throw a touchdown and the Browns would win. Basically, it was my football version of Linus sitting in a pumpkin patch every year in a futile attempt to see the Great Pumpkin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcam222 Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 What Ariza is accused of is simply light years worse than what Watson allegedly did. Asking a masseuse to rub your Johnson or slapping it on her is far different than forcefully and repeatedly gang raping a minor. Not say My Watson doesn’t need counseling but it’s night and day.
