And them chicks have to work hard for that raise i bet you.
I am having a har...uh...difficult, time believing this.
But whether it ends up true or not, they need to give this incident a name that does NOT have the suffix "-gate" in it. Watergate was damn near 50 years ago, give the 'gate' a damn rest.
Up here in the Boston area they are complaining about having to experience another scandal involving deflated balls.
And that the referees will save Kraft by reinterpreting the Tug Rule.
and, yes, the obligatory hope that this story will have a Happy Ending for Pats fans.
Yep, we're hearing all about it. Locals can't wait for Red Sox Opening Day.
Lot of appropriate slip ins, JC. A) deflated balls b) Tug rule C) Happy ending.
LOL.
But in reality, consenting adults, even for money, shouldn't be a crime unless minors are involved. Only downside is spread of VD but that can happen even when no money is exchanged. Remember the great AIDS epidemic? It wasn't exclusively among participants in prostitution.
Sorry about overdoing the ....gate JC, I was at work yesterday and we were tossing them around to see which was funniest. I liked those 2. Your post was much better.
Its good to see the Pats get the negative pub and even better their owner. Imo if a guys wants to step into one of these joints that is his choice. I am enjoying to see an owner get caught because when its a player the self righteous howls are immense. Cops, accountants guys from all walks of life solicit these joints so if this old, rich widower needs some, so what. Horror story is the young manipulated women that get caught up in this racket. I wonder what do they do with all of these women when they get used up???
Remember there is a presumption of innocence in all criminal matters in the US. Burden of Proof by the prosecution is beyond a reasonable doubt.
If there is sufficient evidence in this case to sustain the alleged crime, then he will opt for a deal to minimize damages and his exposure to jail time.
All and all, let's wait and see how this unfolds in the weeks ahead.
I agree with you colonel. You are innocent unit proven guilty but would they really announce Kraft's name in connection if they didn't have some really solid proof/evidence. With his money, he could cause real problems for the police/DA if it turns out to be false.
who on this board or in this world, would not take a dynasty 6 ring team, to have our owner get a blowie?? lmao. If that was the least of the Phins problems i would be forever happy hahah
PAfinfan--Prosecutors can get a bit "excited" sometimes when they believe they have a big fish on the hook. Sometimes their excitement misleads them into jumping the gun.
We all need to be patient and see how this unfolds in the next few weeks. The government will have to show its hand soon or look foolish.
Because it's Kraft, I expect leaks to occur to the media so that uninformed public opinion and social media lambast this defendant. Again, I expect this because Kraft is a wealthy, pseudo-celebrity.
The government has to prove their case; it has the burden of proof. Kraft remains innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
So, its clear why he would want to do whatever he did- twice. But, why would a guy with his money and celebrity risk his standing in the community by visiting a storefront massage parlor that gives "happy endings" in Jupiter, Florida? Why not a high-class call girl in his home? He can certainly afford it, and its much safer in a variety of ways.
I guess he wants to pay peanuts to get laid for the same reason he wants to pay peanuts to his football players. A bit stingy perhaps? I bet he takes home all of the hotel toiletries whenever he travels.
808, I think it is perversion. For all the good reasons you pointed out for using a call girl, he gets his kicks getting down and dirty with the added pleasure of the thrill that he ran the risk of getting caught.
