Dude got a handjob like thousands of old dudes do every day. Big whoop.

He made really stupid choices in doing it

1. in a state it's not legal
2. going back to a place where it's not legal
3. doing it in a place that may have some prostitutes that aren't exactly there willingly.

He's an idiot. How the fuck is that "defending him?"

I don't think it's as cut and dry as you're making it sound.

Anyway, Kraft has been a pathetic embarrassment since his wife died. Thanks for keeping the team in New England and staying out of Belichick's way (and some good philanthropy), but hopefully his son will be better.

Another one here.

I'm on the assumption that if you're paying for a happy ending, you're supporting virtual prisoners/sex workers. He's either ignoring it or doesn't care. Either way, he's a scumbag

It's cute.

Rush2112 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 22, 2019 1:14 pm Currently, he's been charged with 2 misdemeanours. Like I said, big whoop.

If it's more than a handjob that's another story, you're instantly leaping to the assumption that he's the mastermind behind the whole thing.

I'm not letting Kraft off the hook. He made stupid fucking choices, and have repeatedly said as such. Probably a good time to let Jonathon take over the team and issue a statement along with a blank check to a human rights group even if he didn't know how or why the girls were at the rub and tug.

If it was a Broncos', Colts, or Steelers' executive, you'd be leading the firing squad.

If this was a high class call girl operation (e.g. Heidi Fleiss, etc.) that Kraft got caught up in I'd frankly think it was funny and definitely worthy of making digs about here, but I wouldn't be worked up about it. That's a victimless crime in my opinion.

This...is not that. Not even fucking close. You can plead ignorance of the way human traffickers operate all you want and use that to excuse Kraft as well, but it's not an excuse I'm going to buy.

Oh and tip of the iceberg.

Neither, I think. At least, what I was laughing at wasn't either of those.
