Ah! Woo! Okay. All right. When a core's life is cold enough, the mountains on the can turn blue. So the next time you want a cold lager, cold filter, cold package, Coors Light, just wait until those glorious mountains on the can turn blue. It's easy to say that fast when you're freezing cold.

Well, hey, not only is Deshaun Watson dreadful at football, which, as we discussed in an earlier podcast, is truly one of the most incredible falls from grace ever, maybe not OJ level, he didn't kill two people allegedly, but if you look at what he was to what he is now, off and on the field, this will be studied for years and years and years. I want classes on it. I want 30 for 30s. I want a deep 10 part last dance style documentary about how the hell this guy went from being this good old wholesome boy that, by the way, could play his ass off in the field to becoming a guy who just likes to get his ass played with off the field. Which, by the way,

if that's the case, hey, listen, man, we're not going to kink shame. I'm not here to judge. I'm not here to tell you that your kink is inferior or weirder than anybody else's kink. Hey, we all got things we're into. Some people are into, like, step-mommy erotica. Some people are into step-daughter, step-mom, step-dad, step- stepant, hentai, shit involving octopuses. I mean, people are into some weird shit. We all have our kinks. We all have our things we're into. I'm not here to kink shame. Deshaun Watson, at worst, actually, I'll say at best, is just a guy

that's really kinky and doesn't know how to read the room. At worst, he's like a Cosby like serial predator, right? Well, Deshaun Watson's latest issue he's dealing with is another accusation of sexual assault and battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The accusations are very similar to the 20 lawsuits filed in 2021. I'm reading all this from Pro Football Talk. However, the plaintiff in the new case who filed under the name Jane Doe contends that she went on a date with Watson. Most, if not all other cases, arose from paid massages. So at least he's getting into something else. It's not like he walked in to get a massage, then sticks his ass up in the air and wants his b-hole fondled then rolls over with a bone or is like hey it's not gonna stroke itself the lawsuit explains that the date was set for

October 10th 2020 so right in the heart of the rona my man's looking to get some action Watson per the lawsuit was initially unable to find her apartment. He called her and allegedly began aggressively yelling and screaming and stating that he could not find her apartment and that he, quote, doesn't have time for this. So my man's pissed off. Look, in his defense, and again, I don't know what this guy has done or hasn't done, but I don't know that 20 people accuse you of being a serial predator and it's not at least somewhat true right in his defense it can get annoying trying to find somebody's apartment that is a pain in the ass speaking of pain in the ass we will continue the

story when Watson finally arrived at Doe's apartment Doe had not finished putting on makeup so she invited Watson to have a seat in her living room while she finished getting ready. As she was putting on makeup in her bathroom, Doe left the bathroom door open and attempted conversation with Watson, trying to ease the tension from his angry outburst, which is not a good way to start a date. Now, granted, he's a good-looking guy. He's rich. He's the quarterback for the Houston Texans. He's very famous, so I guess you'll tolerate a little bit of a guy being a dick. But this is probably not the best way to start your courtship with a guy on the phone saying, Bitch, where the hell do you live?

Man, I ain't got time for this shit. I don't know why he sounded like that, but in my mind, he did. Now, story continues. As she was putting on makeup in the bathroom doe left the bathroom door open to talk okay we read that um she was trying to ease the tension well sean knows a way you can do that jane doe quickly began to believe she was talking to herself because watson wasn't responding jane doe came out of her bathroom to investigate Watson's silence and shockingly found him completely naked on her bed, lying face down on his stomach. Face down, ass up! buttocks. Jane Doe asked if Watson meant he wanted her to massage his back, but Watson indicated that it was his buttocks he wanted massaged. Jane Doe at this point in the encounter was terrified.

She was in her small apartment with a much larger man and she was still reeling from Watson's outburst and aggression on the phone. She tried to appease Watson by rubbing his back rather than his buttocks. I will stop here. Now, you're in an apartment. It's a small place. You're standing up and fully clothed. He's naked, lying on his stomach, looking to have his b-hole played with, right? At this point, I feel pretty confident that if you made a run for it and said, I'm the fuck up out of here, Deshaun Watson isn't going to chase you around an apartment complex naked. So while a guy is vulnerable and naked and laying on his stomach and you're just standing there, this is your moment that you should get the fuck out of Dodge. This is that moment. If you're sitting there and you're like,

you know, let me think here for a second. Here here are my choices i can get the fuck out of here because this crazy person who's already yelled at me on the phone even though we've never gone on a date and is now naked lying on my bed asking me to rub his ass that's the moment you should probably get the hell out of dodge now she doesn't do that because she's concerned she starts rubbing the guy down Watson began insisting again that she focus on his glutes seemingly frustrated that Doe would only rub his back Watson then turned over revealing an erection once again this is probably that moment in time now I've never been a woman in one of these situations I've never been a woman who's been sexually assaulted or having someone whip out their dick in front of me like that.

Although gay men have touched my penis over the pants. I'm not judging them for it. I was a little bit flattered, but I get it. Now, he's frustrated that she would only rub his back. He turns over and he starts gesturing from his knees to his groin. Jane Doe frozen fear, unsure how to refuse Watson's advances without jeopardizing her safety. Confused and scared, she reiterated to Watson that she wasn't a masseuse. Watson asked her what she wanted to do instead, and before she could answer,

he basically then throws her on the bed and rapes her. Now, terrible story. Again, I don't know what's true and what's not. I don't know if there's some money grab. I have no clue. Now, she says eventually she tries to escape. She grabbed a heavy piece of decor from her dresser in self-defense and yelled for Watson to get out of the apartment. Enraged, Watson stormed out of Jane Doe's apartment now statute of limitations is five years in Texas uh it's been four-ish so she's got time there here's the thing again I'm not defending some guy raping someone like all signs point to this guy being a piece of shit creep I don't think that many of us are going to disagree with that sometimes you'll read stories and you'll go there's something weird about this story I don't believe it many of us are going to disagree with that. Sometimes you'll read stories and you'll go, there's something weird about this story.

I don't believe it sounds like a money grab, whatever. 20 plus people ain't looking for a money grab at this point. And I choose to believe, and maybe I'm naive, but I choose to believe that many people are at least somewhat honest and are not just going to bold face lie about somebody. But then again, I could be a dipshit when money is involved. Maybe people will do whatever the fuck they can to get money. I don't know. But you had a chance to get the fuck away from this guy. Now, in 2020, none of us knew that this guy was a serial jerker offer on

masseuses. We didn't know that. And we didn't know that this is the kind of weird shit this guy was into. We thought he was a wholesome, all-American boy doing great things for people. His coach said he's Michael Jordan. And Dabo would know he's a God-fearing man. He knows good folks. But I feel like if you're in that situation, maybe when he's laying on his stomach, you got to put the dots together. Like, I don't know. And if Jilly were here, I'd ask her. But in that scenario, the guy's already been an asshole to you on the phone and he's already laying on his stomach with his ass out asking you to rub it when he's laying there naked. That's your chance to just get the fuck out of the apartment? Do you call the cops? Like, are they going to believe you? You know, it's your word against his. There's a lot of factors in there. So I don't know what would have happened in that. But either way, it's a fucked up story. And this guy just is a creep. It seems like he's a creep. All signs point to him being a creep. Yet he gets a $230 million deal at the time,

the highest paid quarterback ever, all that that now go back to football right he sucks he's awful yesterday he doesn't seem like the same human I think this whole situation has fucked this dude up beyond belief he's just uh he doesn't look like the same dude and the and look this sounds terrible but when I first heard this story I'm like not shocked and b is this something that could get the Browns out of this guy's deal and that's a fair question because multiple people have asked this question I'm seeing it in the story the new case raises plenty of issues from the standpoint of the league and the Browns it's possible that Watson could be subject to further scrutiny under personal conduct policy

it's also possible that a suspension, if one is imposed, could give the Browns a path toward voiding his remaining salary guarantees and ending the relationship. If I'm the Browns, I'm like urging the league to suspend this guy. I'm behind closed doors like, help us out. We made a mistake. Now, you could argue that karma should step in and force them to keep this guy.

You could make that argument, if you're someone that believes in karma, that this team goes out and gives the biggest contract ever to a guy who's got 20 accusations that he's jerking off on massage therapists and that he's a creep, and now you got another story. You could argue that the Browns should have to suffer that fate. They got a wonderful man riding the bench who seems like a

lovely human who has made his own sexual mistakes as well in Jameis Winston, but he seems like he's found the Lord in some way and seems like a decent enough guy. This guy's riding the bench over there, probably not as talented as Deshaun Watson, but he's riding the bench over there. I think they'd give their left nuts to have him on the field right now if they could get rid of Deshaun Watson, but he's riding the bench over there. I think they'd give their left nuts to have him on the field right now if they could get rid of Deshaun Watson. Contract-wise, loaded with dead money. I saw something earlier on TV that you can't do it. It's impossible money-wise. They know $93 million, then $60 million next year. They can't. And I don't know the inner workings of the contract, but you know that when we listen to Brown's people, that Brown's people are going to do anything possible

to find a way to get rid of this guy. And if I'm the Browns, I'm hoping he's suspended because I don't think they're dumb enough to believe that he's worth a shit. He's terrible. And I see nothing that would lead me to believe that he's going to be anything less than terrible. He sucks. So if you're the Browns, you're like, all right, can we find anything? Suspend the guy. Boom. We can avoid it. And if you're Deshaun, you're probably scared shitless of that too, because you get all this guaranteed money and pretty soon you ain't going to have this guaranteed money. The good news is we don't have to worry about this shit in Houston because he's somebody else's problem now. And we get the opportunity to watch one of the two or three best young quarterbacks in the league who seems to be a decent guy. Now, then again, we thought that about Deshaun Watson when he was setting the world on fire. And it turns out he likes to go to

the, he likes to treat the normal, you know, massage envy like a rubbing tug. So I don't know, but it feels good to know we don't have to worry about that guy that's somebody else's problem and all we have to worry about at this point is watching CJ Stroud throw to Nico Collins and throw to Tank Dell and throw to Stefan Diggs and hand the ball off 30 damn times to Joe Mixon and go get a big road win to start the season that's the positive for us. The Browns got it rough. I don't know if their fans deserve that shit, but the organization kind of does. So I'm torn. On one hand, it'd be fantastic if this asshole didn't get his money

and somehow he got suspended and he was donezo and they took the cash out and the contracts voided. That'd be great. On the other hand, it would be just sweet if the Browns were stuck with it. This guy sucks. He's nothing but a headache seemingly. He's bad on the field. More accusations coming out. It would be great if the Browns had to suffer through this. So in a way, it's a get-out-of-jail-free card for them

if he does get suspended. But who knows? We'll see how it plays out. All right, we'll see you.
