Antonio Brown’s legal troubles end with this:
Alleged Transgressions
-A questionable sexual assault lawsuit filed by a female acquaintance who acknowledged having a voluntary personal relationship with him, at a minimum, and who acknowledged flying to Miami to meet with him, going to a night club with him, and going to his house afterwards.
-A group text message to a woman who dragged him through the mud publicly, making a reference to her children having nice clothes, which implied she isn't as financially distressed as she claimed to be.
-No criminal charges or even criminal investigation.
-Released by New England Patriots and suspended/blackballed by the NFL for an entire season, which was unofficial since it involved colluding against Brown and teams refusing to sign him due to the league dragging their feet on an investigation. The effective suspension was more than 2X the suspension for Ben Roethlisberger, who was involved in multiple incidents of sexual assualt. 4X longer suspension than Greg Hardy, who beat his girlfriend to a pulp. Tyreek Hill was not suspended at all for comments implying he broke his three year old's arm, which would make him a repeat offender.
One could strongly argue the only reason Brown was given such a harsh punishment is because of an owner who played ball with the league, seperating him from the NFLPA, making him an inactive player, and giving him no recourse. So let's hear a big Thank You for Bendover Bob, after claiming to learn his lesson from Deflategate, and remember when you see Tommy and AB laughing and celebrating championships in Tampa Bay, that Bob was instrumental in making this happen. Tom was adament that he could help AB and get him on the right path; Bob buckled at the pressure and chose the brownie points with public relations and the league office.
