The decision of the Browns to trade for quarterback Deshaun Watson elicited mixed reactions from the team’s fans. Some loved it, off-field issues notwithstanding. Some hated it, given the off-field issues.

There was no sign of negativity on Saturday, for the first public practice of training camp. As explained by Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Watson received an “enthusiastic reception” from fans who attended the session.

Could be false narrative-fake news. But then he wins a few games and the fans turn around. Fickle. If course no one died on the massage table. Some of the women see an opportunity-he's got money. The NFL is uncomfortable with this. They'll have to placate both sides-throw us a bone in the form of an 8 game suspension. The owners know where their bread is buttered. If they suspend him for a whole year it's 'we gotta show this guy'. That would be a slap at all the blacks-mistake. He comes back at mid-season guess where all the nations attention will be?

If THE JUDGE suspends him for the whole year the NFL can move on and his return won’t be as big a deal. So the woke executives ‘prepare’ for an 8 game suspension, keeping ‘the lid’ on. That way they can have it both ways. He’ll only get 6 games. Both sides save face.

Anyone remember Keshawn Johnson arguing with John Gruden on the sideline? Got him cut WITH PAY. The next Sunday he was on the pre-game shows when his place was on the field.

Same with Michael Vick. 2 years in the klink. QB’s should be counted on and he came up short. Now he’s on some sports talk show. Fine he served his time but he failed. You don’t showcase the losers in life.

Kapernick couldn’t play. The honchos pressured teams to hire him. I guess it takes an O.J. to turn people off.

Deshaun Watson sucks, Jacoby Brissett sucks, and they ain't gettin Jimmy Garoppolo.

Stupid move to trade Baker Mayfield.

Baker will turn the Panthers around and the Browns won't even be a threat.

If MLB can suspend Trevor Bauer for two whole years for the accusations of one woman than the NFL must suspend Watson for 48 years because of the accusations of 24 women. Just to be “fair”.

Goroppolo is a pretty boy-those things count. The NFL would like nothing better than to see him take the team into the playoffs where the girls go gaga. The woke NFL won’t admit it. Now if Jimmy were to say he’s queer...

I’m sure Watson is hoping this story has a happy ending for him.

Did he rape anyone? Nope. He whipped out his schlong a few times to “massage therapists.” I highly doubt he was the first to do it. Al Gore did this to a masseuse in a hotel room and groped her and chased her around the room. Tipper divorced him shortly thereafter. The media never mentions it. Ever.

Holy cow! I didn’t know the Browns traded Mayfield. That’s a bad decision.
Did I miss something?

Steelers fans cheered the rapist Rothlisberger for years.

The type of fan that goes to watch practice will always be enthusiastic. It’s a self selecting positive crowd.

As for his narrative, the fact that his team created non-disclosure agreements for his masseuse’s to sign is all the proof you need he was up to bad stuff. Kind of like Matt Lauer’s electronic door, good people don’t need those.

Baker will turn the Panthers around....

I hope so. Baker is a perfectly good QB, maybe even better than good. He's not Tom Brady... but who is?!

Meanwhile the Browns have bought a pig-in-a-poke. Who knows how many games Watson will be available for?

So... at least for today, it was a happy ending for both Watson and the fans?!

“The media never mentions it. Ever.”
