Rich Rod Out Due To...?
« on: January 03, 2018, 10:02:58 AM »
Rodriguez was let go at Arizona and the headlines read (And the talking heads say) it was because of sexual harassment.  Curious (And Bi) about what he had done, I pulled up an ESPN article on it.  The piece said let go because of sexual harassment, but the content says otherwise.  It says a former employee retained an attorney and made the claim of S.A. against him.  From that point forward, she refused to cooperate or offer one shred of anything to substantiate her claim. 

The University ran a 10 week investigation and admitted to finding nothing on the claim.  They also verified the former employee offered nothing.  Rod voluntarily took a lie detector test and admitted to having an affair but denied any harassment.  He passed the test.  She then files a notice of claim that she intends to file a $7.5 million lawsuit for a hostile working environment.  Then, RR is let go.

I don't know and really don't care if there was just cause to let the man go.  It just appears to me that all this woman had to do was make a totally unsubstantiated claim of sexual harassment and Pandora's box is opened and the guy loses his job.  He may have done some shit worthy of being let go.  But all the media wants to use are the buzz words of the day, sexual harassment.

Guess it doesn't have the same ring to it as Sexual Chocolate.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

From what I understood after reading a few stories, they found that it wasn't exactly as she said, but they found a lot of smoke in regards to the environment in general.  It looks like they found enough wrong in general that they wanted to get ahead of it instead of invite an avalanche.

This is most likely the case.  Didn't they honor his contract anyway?  I thought I saw that.  If so, then it was probably best all around.  I just hate the initial painting with a broad brush by the media in the click-bait headlines of it being a case of sexual harassment.

The man took a polygraph and passed. Isn't that what the libs want to happen?  I mean, if he's innocent, he'll take a polygraph, right?
The only good that has come out of this attack on men, is that the libtards are getting hit hard in the process!

They're going to pay him $5.5 million, which covers his contract that ran through 2020.  I'm guessing that was the best way to keep a lid on whatever they found.

Notoriously unreliable and relatively easy to beat.

There's a reason you only see them on old episodes of Dragnet and not in actual court proceedings.

Should have kept it in his pants, wanked in the bathroom, and moved on. You hustle a side piece, it has consequences. I read the AD there as connections to Butch Jones. That would be funny.

It was just another sanctimonious misdirect. Everyone knows they are not admissible in court, but every libtard yelled for Moore to take one!

Now that someone accused of the same thing takes one and passes, you get people like wes coming out and saying they are not reliable...

The moral of the story is don't get your pussy where you get your paycheck.  In nearly every single one of these instances, that's exactly what the problem is.

I'll challenge you to find a single instance of me advocating that Roy Moore submit to a polygraph.
