"I don't know how many men are out there now that have had a massage that perhaps occassionally there was a happy ending. Alright? Maybe there's nobody in your listening audience that that ever happened to. I do want to point out if it has happened, it's not a crime. Unless you are paying somebody extra or so to give you some type of sexual activity it's not a crime. And so at the end of the day that's another thing that that would [?]. Doing something or saying something or being a way that makes you uncomfortable is not a crime. And so we had two grand juries find that and nobody seems to want to listen."
What a quote. What an implication. And what a reminder that the Cleveland Browns just gave $230 million guarunteed to a guy with facing 22 (now 23) sexual assault allegations.
