described an episode that was particularly egregious. I think the worst I ever read was he rubbed her thigh and made a proposition.
Basically he was going around to masseuses offering money for happy endings.
To me it's tacky AF, but I don't have some huge moral issue with that sort of transaction. He attempted what he thought were 'business deals'. It's not like there aren't sex workers in the massage industry, let's be real.
The thing about it though ... he didn't just get accused once or twice or even five times. It was 20+ women.
That's not just mistakenly reading the situation a few times, that's sex addict behavior. And also likely belies a general disrespect towards women.
And sex addiction is every bit as intractable a problem as alcohol, drug and gambling addictions. Not saying a person can't overcome it and I hope he got a ton of help and is a changed man.
But It's NOT a smart play if you're an owner of an NFL franchise, ESPECIALLY not with that kind of guaranteed money.
A one-year prove it deal I wouldn't have looked THAT askance upon assuming the team did their due diligence, he made his therapy records available to the owners, that kind of thing.
I believe in redemption, addiction recovery, and 2nd chances as a general rule.
But the biggest deal EVER? You gotta be f***ing kidding me
That aspect is what made it really offensive in my book.
