No idea, I just think Easterby's full of....Did this all happen under his watch? What's the oldest allegation.

I heard he knew the father but does not know the current owner.He’s got a what now?
The only “association” I know of was his claim that he was neighbors with the McNairs, but in today’s press conference he denied knowing them at all.
True, but it is info to consider.Yeah I heard about that but some rich jabroni putting up billboards does not constitute a relationship with the team.
I just cannot subscribe to the notion this is some sort of scheme. The legal ramifications to anyone making this all up would be mind numbing.True, but it is info to consider.
These things are never easy. Of course you always want to believe the woman (or man) who claims to be a victim, but in the early stages, it's just word-vs-word.
So maybe you side slightly with the victim initially.
Then you start accounting for any evidence and/or circumstances. And here are the only things we know for sure:
1. He is at a crucial moment in his career, basically wanting no part of Houston.
2. A lawyer who is a huge Texan fan all of a sudden brings these allegations.
3. Up until this point, Watson has been known as a model citizen and great guy. Meals to broke folks, cops...
4. The lawyer releases "evidence". You'd think the first stuff released would be at least somewhat damning... but no. The evidence I think actually helps Watson. The text messages read as being polite and considerate.
So I'm very much thinking this is a BS scheme at the moment. But that can change at any time of course, if there's any actual evidence of wrongdoing on Watson's part.
HPD have no reported incidents. Isnt that where this all starts?
It is pretty wild.The giant discrepancy in media coverage from what AB received with one civil suit while signed in New England, versus what Watson is currently receiving for a dozen suits and counting is shocking....
Because the fact that he denies it means it's not true. Just like the fact he accuses Watson means THAT'S true.He’s got a what now?

When was the last time the Texans had a reputation for actually thinking things through?I just cannot subscribe to the notion this is some sort of scheme. The legal ramifications to anyone making this all up would be mind numbing.
Shame because it makes it more difficult for actual victims.You'd be surprised how common that is, especially with high publicity lawsuits.
I agree!Shame because it makes it more difficult for actual victims.
They would lose their franchise and be sued for a billion dollars (literally) if they did this and it was all made up.When was the last time the Texans had a reputation for actually thinking things through?
This is DWat. This IS their franchise for all intents and purposes. Losing him puts the Texans instantly in bottom feeder status. if there's EVER a time to go scorched-earth no-tomorrow, it's now.
They have every incentive to do something underhanded to keep Watson in Houston. And they're the one franchise of the entire 32 I'd actualy believe capable of being incompetent enough to do so this openly
And the fact that the lawyer involved is a Texans superfan is not helping that impression.
Houston did something to coordinate this. I have a hard time believing it’s legitamate
Watson today has deleted tweets from when he was in high school talking about enjoying massages. This is gonna get a whole lot worse.
