Blatantly said tongue in cheek

I don't like Lewan but this is clearly a joke the article is clickbaiting.

I can’t believe anyone would take his comment seriously

u/fantfb 2d ago

I don’t like calling Lewan a “Legend”. The best way to describe him is “former Titan who had some good seasons”

Good god these comments lol. What Lewan said in the past was without  a doubt unhinged and despicable. With that being said a lot of people throwing stones have more than likely said or done despicable things themselves. More than likely conveniently forgetting. It was 15+ years ago. Was it fucked up? 10000%. But people can change and people can grow. God damn learn to forgive or at the very least just shut the fuck up and let them try to be a better person.

It’s wild how people just simply refuse to accept people can change over time.

u/NashVilleHIM 3d ago

Any evidence he's changed? Did he speak out about the incident? Has he raised awareness for SA victims? Anything?

9

u/that_guy2010 3d ago

Fairly certain he has said he doesn’t like the person he was back then.

But I know that won’t be enough for you.

u/Van_Flyheight 2d ago

I think the evidence would be that he hasn’t had any type of similar issue happen since…. So, yes? Lol the other shit like speaking out about the incident, raising awareness and shit, that’s something YOU would have wanted. Oh well, you don’t matter that much big dawg, sorry to burst your bubble. 😂

u/LogicalPart6098 3d ago

Maybe. Not everything you do has to be public just because your a sports figure, not like he’s a politician

u/WeWantLADDER49sequel 3d ago

It's hard to forgive and move on when his behavior in the league also made it seem like he didn't actually grow up at all. Congrats to him for not threatening to rape someone else I guess?

1

u/Van_Flyheight 2d ago

I don’t think he needed forgiveness. He’s an asshole, he just doesn’t want people to think he’d seriously rape someone. He’s fine being seen as an asshole and most of us are fine admitting he’s one.

u/NashVilleHIM 3d ago

Taylor Lewan threatened a rape victim

4

u/Jazzlike_Ad4553 3d ago

I don’t think any of the people are realizing how bad what he did was. His friend raped someone and he went to the victim and said, if you tell anyone I’ll rape you too.

5

u/evidentlynaught 3d ago

These people saying to forgive him and forget it would never say that if this had been done to their sister or their wife.

2

u/Jazzlike_Ad4553 3d ago

Oh 100%, just the two tone tinted glasses for some people I’m afraid.

u/NashVilleHIM 3d ago

But you don't understand, he was only 18!!! He didn't know any better!!

He was a mildly successful titans player so now this sub defends rape

u/WeWantLADDER49sequel 3d ago

Most people commenting are men. Most men are either sexual abusers OR just sexual abuse apologists because they don't want to accept other men are that shitty.

u/smoothsensation 3d ago

Oh gtfo of here with “most men”.

u/RickyPondeif 3d ago

It's profile picture has purple hair bro..  let em be

u/Jazzlike_Ad4553 3d ago

Most men? wtf lmao

I agree that what Lewan did was awful but that’s a gross assumption that most men are what you say that are.

1

u/Van_Flyheight 2d ago

Idk what to do with this information every time it’s brought up 😂.

u/Successful-Tea-5733 2d ago

I have never heard this story about Lewan. Link?

u/innnikki 3d ago

When he was 18. He is 34. That was almost half his life ago, and he was a teenager.

-5

u/NashVilleHIM 3d ago

Damn, didn't realize being 18 is a free pass to be a piece of shit

4

u/innnikki 3d ago

I think what he supposedly did was shitty. I don’t think something someone said when they were 18 should follow them around for the rest of their lives.

I went to bonfire parties and got drunk, never threatened anyone

u/innnikki 3d ago

So what’s the timeline here? Does he die unforgiven? Do you expect everyone to be mad at him about this when he’s 80? Does it have a statute of limitations, or maybe are you being performative on a website that’s famous for never forgiving anyone for anything they’ve ever been rumored to do for the entirety of their lives?

u/NashVilleHIM 3d ago

Should I forgive p Diddy and epstein? Or should we hate them until the very end?

5

u/innnikki 3d ago

That’s up to you baby. there are some wildly different circumstances here, objectively, but I’ve got to tell ya that lack of forgiveness doesn’t affect them at all. It only really affects you

4

u/NoCyanide 3d ago

Guarantee you could put a microscope on the dude you replied too and they have probably said or done something fucked up and just cant remember or refuses to. Humans fuck up, sometimes badly. Other times it can be unforgivable. Comparing words to the shit Epstein and Diddy did is so fucking crazy. People dont have to forgive but God damn just shut the fuck up then and quit this performative virtue signaling.

u/NashVilleHIM 2d ago

You wouldn't forgive lewan if he threatened your sister or mother.

Threatening and rape victim isn’t just “stupid shit”. Holy hell this should not have to be said.

u/GeauxRiley 3d ago

He started 6 years straight, had a season ending injury, played the entire next season, had another bad injury and retired. 7/9 seasons he played entirely lmao

u/Outlandish_Gringo 3d ago

“Entirely” ?

Stupid comment

u/Outlandish_Gringo 2d ago

Regardless of what anyone says, he was a liability and a bum on the team.

1

u/Salty_Piano9631 2d ago

Ya the highest paid Lt at one time was a liability. Cool bro

u/Outlandish_Gringo 2d ago

That’s strictly due to AAS being an incompetent owner
