Well I am pretty good (if I do say so myself), but I have a back ground in psychology and I study books on body language as I was in sales for 20 years.

Interesting new study is micro expressions.

*I can give examples if you would like

What does that mean when you say you "have a background in psychology"? You watch a lot of Criminal Minds?

Ideally, we get drunk as **** Friday night and the Jazz win at the buzzer again for an amazing night!

Or they blow them out by 40. Either way.
 
As i am married to someone who has endured abuse through her life, the way a woman -- or any person -- handles abuse is individually unique. Timings may seem weird, or sometimes they don't want to report anything at all -- there is no right time to seek action against abuse, whats important is that action is being taken -- any associated shaming of the victim is uncalled for. They could have difficulties facing the problem due to self shame, embarrassment, fear, or a whole other myriad of issues. I'm one for "innocent until proven guilty", but i'm also one for defending a potential victim from "shaming" or "suspicion" due to allegations of abuse. No one should have to face scrutiny for seeking action against abuse, and its the nay-say attitude of the public against these victims that feeds into the lack of action in the first place.

Either Jeff ****ed up and abused this woman, and deserves the punishment coming his way-- or (statistically way smaller chance) Jeff ****ed up by being in a relationship with a woman who would try to get back at him by doing something like this.

We need to keep in mind that statistically the former is much more likely, and either way Jeff ****ed up. Sad situation, hope it ends up in the best of ways for both parties.

Just remember folks, no matter what happened here, it's the mans fault.

No I study psychology in college. It was my minor. I also read a lot. I subscribe to psychology today.

It is an interesting course of study considering it is not based on any laws but on theory. I have a different take into the human mind then you will find from most psychologists.

Very odd timing. I highly doubt it yet it's slightly possible someone with ties to the Clippers may be a little bit behind this.
If the Clippers lose this series there is a very high percentage chance that the team and coaching staff might looking for playing for new teams.
Whenever multi millions of dollars are involved it kinda makes you wonder.
Rudy Gobert gets hurt. Then 3 days later now that Jeff has a potential role in the series. Now this comes out, it kinda adds up.
I read this theory on the tmz board. It sounded crazy but it's a maybe.

I hope this isn't true. But I also hope that posters to this discussion board don't embarrass themselves and this board in general by resorting to the same good ol' boy old tactics of attacking the accuser or questioning her motives. Sadly, I already see it going in this direction.

Women and other people who are victims of sexual harrassment or abuse don't follow some script dictated to them by men or by irrational fans of some sports team on how they should act, when they should report it, how they should feel, what actions they should take, etc. This woman and her charges deserve to be taken seriously until there's a good reason they should not. So far, I don't see that, and neither do any of you. So please don't take this direction one might, sadly, expect it to take.

I do question her motives and timing. Like one poster said, if she was so concerned about other women, then why did she wait so long? It's not like Jeff Withey is some celebrity with power over her. Also, if something serious happened, I would expect something of note would've been reported by the police. Yes, I think there are a lot of questions that remain. Obviously, there were problems with the relationship, but doesn't mean there were criminal acts committed.
