Odds on settling out of court?

Odds on settling out of court?

0% chance. It's an admission of guilt.

Odds of it being thrown out of court?

I'm going with 99%.

Wasn't he in some kind of similar trouble recently?

50 million dollars?! Who you think you got, Kelsey Clinton? Chelsea Carter? Is it Chelsea or Kelsey?

Was that a Rush Hour reference?

speaking of fighting the court of public opinion. A couple snippits from the article.

The attorney representing Shannon Sharpe against a $50 million lawsuit alleging the football Hall of Famer raped a woman released hundreds of text communications between Sharpe and the purported victim on Tuesday.

Amid the released texts, there appeared to be one from earlier this year on Jan. 2 — the same day that the woman says she was raped by Sharpe in her lawsuit — where she confronted him about the alleged assault.


“but I cried when u left because I begged you to put a condom on and not put it in my ass and u didn’t listen,” she texted him. “I don’t care what our history is, no means no shannon.”

Kinda surprised they'd put that one out there. It definitely looks like a kinky relationship and it looks like Sharpe pushed his privileges too far but we'll let the process play out and see

The article made it sound like that was associated with the lawsuit, it was going to come out in discovery (most likely) anyways. Sharpe's team got ahead of the story.

If that's the case, he's going to need some police buddies who can make evidence disappear like Roethlisberger had.

Turned down $10mill. Wow. That's a lot to turn down


“Sharpe offered Jane Doe $10 million to settle her case that she rejected,” Buzbee said. “She chose to file her case instead. I’m proud to be her lawyer. I didn’t seek her out as a client or target anyone and Sharpe is well aware of that.”
