Buddy dont judge me, you’re the one who thinks Ben did something awful but yet you kept rooting for him every week. Guess your moral outrage only goes so far.

I never forced myself on anyone, the part you dont understand is I keep talking about this from a consensual POV. Don’t know why you dont understand that.

So glad I was a product of the 80’s and 90’s. Henry Calvill is right, the art of flirting is dead in today’s world. God forbid you penetrate someone’s safe space and touch her arm while flirting, SEXUAL ASSAULT!

I'm a product of the same era, yet I am not going to assume consent and I am certain she was too drunk to give it.

The Vegas girl was a money grab, you can’t possibly still believe that one, it’s been thoroughly debunked. It’s not a stretch of the imagination to think someone would take advantage of that knowledge for the very reason you just pointed out. I think the girl sobered up and realized she couldnt go through with a false claim.

And yes, I would defend them and I dont even have to know a girl to defend them. You mentioned the Tate brothers in another post, I 100% believe those guys have raped many girls. And you might think I am like them but I have told that one brother to GFY more than once. Their popularity is mystery to me.

But everything is a case by case basis and I simply dont believe the Georgia girl. The whole story doesnt add up for me.

What doesn't add up? I agree with you about the other woman, but unless you are going to focus on the DTF tag, which is crap, the facts do not back your side.

and yet, Ben paid settlements to both women.

and Rooney said this

"I have made it clear to Ben that his conduct in this incident did not live up to our standards," Rooney said. "We have made it very clear to Ben that there will be consequence for his actions, and Ben has indicated to us he is willing to accept those consequences."

People settle for lots of reasons. Nuttley refused to cooperate with investigators, witnesses disputed parts of her story, she was inconsistent in her testimony. Gee, you think she might have been lying?

There was no settlement in the Georgia case.

You think Bens conduct would be acceptable to someone like Rooney? The only thing Ben was guilty of that night was not being a gentleman. If Rooney thought Ben raped that girl he would have been gone.

I see you have no answer for the fact that she was too drunk to legally give consent, so you played this semantics game.

No games, I just gave You a real life example, straight from my own experience with sober women, while I was drunk. Guess what, I didn't try saying they raped me after the fact because while drunk I made a bad decision that I was so drunk I couldn't remember anything, and woke up the next morning naked with a naked woman who clearly took advantage of me. I like most humans chalked it up as a bad decision by me for putting myself in that situation, with a woman that could, and did take advantage of me. Now in Ben's situation they were both drunk. So apparently by you, neither could be held responsible for giving concent.

So have I, but that doesn't mean she is one of them or that even the freaky ones don't get the right to give or deny consent.

Doesn't mean she wasn't

Almost every Football player will settle. You can do it whether you are guilty , or not cheaper, and the people, and their lawyers/representation know this. You can literally miss a whole season of football trying to fight it, which will cost you more than the settlement, get behind the 8 ball, maybe lose your job to someone else, and they can drag it on forever, or you can bite the bullet, and do the cheaper thing.....settle.

The DFT tag shows a woman who wasnt shy about advertising she was down for sex. How is that crap when you add to it that she was following Ben around all night to different bars. Come on man you guys are being naive with this.

2 people went into a bathroom to have sex and she changed her mind, probably because Ben was too drunk or creepy or for whatever reason she changed her mind and Ben got pissed. I think she had an abrasion on her knee or something? Forehead? Cant remember but Ben probably called her a tease and c—t and said get out of here shoving her and she fell down. Use your imagination.

What didnt happen was rape, there wasnt even enough DNA to identify Ben, rape kit was inconclusive and showed very little and didn’t support her accusation.

So no, it doesnt add up.
