It's irrelevant what we as ordinary fans think or do. We are not a jury nor prosecutors or defense experts. I could come out and call him a rapist or I could come right out and accuse all the women of gold digging, blah, blah, blah and it makes not a wit bit of difference. The ONLY thing that matters in how these cases are handled in civil litigation and how much damage the league feels it has suffered because of his actions. The league can do as it pleases since they are not a part of the legal system, but a private third party or simply put, his employer. In the end there are two entities that matter.. Civil courts and the league. Public opinion is irrelevant except to the degree at where the league feels they have to make a move to protect their own reputation. If they're seen as shoving it all under the rug it'll cost them dearly in the long run, but if they come down real hard on Watson they'll be perceived by many to be a racist entity .. The league has to thread the needle carefully.. The courts? Who cares?
