You guys are saying the same thing. He was saying this is the nail in Olshey's coffin. That's the weird thing here. I think these articles will make it so the controversial hire (Chauncey) will out live the controversy. I don't think the same can be said as confidently for Olshey but the guy has fucked a lot of shit up for this team and is still here kicking. So we'll see.
Fortunately, I am not a Mod. I'd make a new thread called "Billups Conspiracy Theory", mark it OT, and move these posts there.
I would love to restore that Mustang
great minds, my friend. I just posted the same thing.
The alleged victim doesn't want to deal with this. She also signed the settlement.
Did you read the article? Jane Doe's lawyer is not saying what you're saying. Not at all.
i wish this would go away too, but it is kinda sad when OPB does more due diligence and background research than Olshey, though. I've been backing Neil for a while now, and hiding behind the veil of "proprietary" was something I agreed with until it came out that it was clearly a cover up. the sad thing was if he had just flat out done his homework and been transparent, there wouldn't be this kinda backlash.
Neil said it was proprietary and that's fine. I wouldn't expect him to share the details of the investigation. Then he said that everyone would have to take his word for it, that the investigation was thorough and the OPB article from Tuesday shows that the investigation was not thorough.
This is not the tone of the alleged victim's lawyer in the OPB article. This is an assumption being made by you. Maybe the team made the same assumption during the investigation but assumptions are the opposite of thorough.
i think he rationalized it as Portland being Portland again. He prolly thought 'everyone else in the league hired Chauncey without issue, why shouldn't I?'
Hey, if you're right, you have every right to be concerned. But, I practically live on these message boards for the last month, and I have no evidence about OPB doing more than Neil. What'd they do? Did they establish that there is no proof that Billups was even at Walker's house? Because, that would be news. How do you know what Neil did? By his own admission, it was proprietary? Lots are skeptical about Neil, but he did hire someone to look into it. Is he supposed to investigate himself?
hook me up with a link. If I haven't already read it, I'll read it.
Typical male bullshit. You think rehashing this with the victim is a cost too high for increasing Dia's time in the national limelight?I don't understand how interviewing people today who already said all they had to say on the record 25 years ago would have any value. At all. There is a robust record. Nobody's current recollection is going to be more valuable than what is already in the record. The only things we don't know are things that were sealed by mutual consent, and which are part of an NDA.
My biggest issue though is dragging the accuser into the current conversation and shining a giant public spotlight on her, solely to satisfy other people's personal agenda's. The people who claim to be so outraged by unsubstantiated allegations about someone, someone who has essentially been cleared of those allegations, clearly do not give one single fuck about the wellbeing of the accuser.
I personally care more about the accuser than I do about Chauncy Billups. However, the matter was resolved almost 25 years ago. There is literally nothing new to see here.
I was telling you what I would do, not what was practical.
It's all about Dia. Just ask Dia.
What evidence that there was no investigation? Got a link? I must have missed it.
Gotcha
