THE HELL IS WITH THIS ASS!?





Regardless of how likely it is he is successfully convicted, part of me wants to see a criminal trial just so he can't quickly get out from under this. But that'd probably mean Watson's victims get dragged as much as he does or more, so :negative:

Mike Florio's analysis of this whole thing has been pretty gross... Basically just trying to make it go away it seems like.

How is Mike Florio's position in the sports media landscape so powerful that he doesn't have any higher-ups telling him that maybe he should keep his night visions like "get a retired judge in the room" to himself?

I get the sense that he's playing lawyer devils advocate.

ultimately he's missing the point that maybe some of those women would like to see him never play football again

Yeah but he's completely viewing the situation from the perspective of GET WATSON ON THE FIELD. It feels gross in the context of what Watson actually did.

Correct - he flat-out states that it’s so Watson can put it behind him and move on with his career. There’s no regard for the women here, just “football man lose money bad”

I wasn’t saying it was a good thing, in fact the exact opposite. He shouldn’t be giving him legal advice.

I was going to point out how "get everyone in a room and work it out" and "i'm not saying buy it off and make it go away" one right after the other was some real dumbassery but then I kept listening and became truly disgusted

Honestly I consider Joe Rogan more conservative talk show host who occasionally says something about sports, rather than an actual sports personality.
