And It Continues On

The story of Deshaun Watson continues as of last night. Too close to the dead line for my liking, the NFL has decided to appeal Deshaun Watson's six game suspension, fighting for what they call a one year banishment. It appears that Judge Robertson worded her findings with evidence and insinuation that let the NFL go forward with the appeal without the backlash that might have happened due to this process being new. It seems that the NFL found their loophole. While investigating the judge actually found proof that Deshaun Watson DID commit the NFL's definition of sexual assault. This whole case is complex and most definitely not black and white. The process that this case is going through is new which is what makes this the most confusing however, it seems that there is now a loophole. With the findings that the judge found, the NFL can pursue the punishment that they originally wanted. Now they can also continue talks about a settlement as well. It's very likely that they will go to Federal Court though it's not exactly what they want to do as it could dig up more than what others will want known. Dirty secrets in everyone's closet could be aired. Now we wait once again because now Watson can respond to the appeal within two days. This is just a complicated mess. One way or the other though, it seems like Watson will get punished for what he did...though I'm not sure exactly what he did. It's supposed to be out there for us to find so I guess I have to go digging. I should make a point to say that Deshaun Watson has vehemently proclaimed that he is innocent of all charges since this has started. He has gone so far as to not settling this issue with a settlement when it was offered. *picture from google
