The thing that sucks the most about this whole thing is that we are going to be mired in this story for AT LEAST the next full year.
This story, and the associated side stories and spin-offs, aren't going anywhere. They will continue to swirl until every last case is resolved. They will continue until he is suspended, and then again throughout the whole suspension. Then, the remainder of whichever season it is he finally takes the field for us, every announcer, writer and sports-personality will have unofficially renamed him from "Deshaun Watson" to "Deshaun Watson, who was suspended for ". That renaming will follow him for YEARS, and perhaps for the entire time he is under contract here. This mess that we're all going back-and-forth on... this is just the very, very beginning of it all; the beginning of a very long and tiresome slog through a bunch of needless drama THAT THIS FO CONSCIOUSLY CHOSE TO SIGN UP FOR.
This story is what they felt we needed as the Face of the Franchise.
