Antonio Brown

Ill reserve judgment on the drama with Pittsburgh and Oakland. Here he doesn’t have a qb who will call him out on the radio for running the wrong route and doesn’t have a pushover coach that will enable the stuff that led to him getting out of control. And in Oakland he clearly didn’t wanna be there, whereas he chose to sign here. Not excusing his actions but we just don’t know how he’ll behave in another environment.

He has done some legit scummy stuff though. The things i had a real problem with are when he threw furniture off a balcony and drove 100 on a local road. Both can actually seriously injure or kill somebody. That said, people have done worse things and became better people.

I remember hearing about Manny Ramirez and Johnny Damon throwing water balloons off of a Boston hotel from many stories up. That was pretty dumb also.

We can only hope that AB will like it here and be a good team member.
 
84 is Ben Watson...a well-respected veteran.

That is an interesting one.

Unless Ben has a price in mind, AB might be best served to find another one.

True, but Ben did wear #82 for a lot of years outside New England, which is currently used by Stephen Anderson on the practice squad.

I could easily see some kind of arrangement being made.
 
Just heard a rumor (not a reliable source) DT being dropped for AB, is this true? Id rather they IR Matt C the TE.
 
Anyone else really paranoid about a tampering investigation?
 
It still feels like this was either an April fools joke or it happened in a weird dream last night.

I think it took me about two hours to stop laughing about this. It was my only way to cope because my personal cognitive dissonance gauge was pegged for that long. I'm still getting chuckling fits today.
 
I think it's a bit off though. The tweet should have read:

"To recap, the Steelers get a 3rd and a 5th from the Raiders and are paying $21,000,000 in dead cap space (and real money) for a player on the Patriots."

Big Deal!

So what if BB traded Oakland's 3rd and 5th for Antonio Brown?

Happens all the time.

Better than when Tomlin accused the Patriots of a weather machine or when many places accused BB of having an orbiting satellite or BB bugging the opposition's own stadium.
 
Has the verbiage of the contract been release? Trying to see if that $9M is actually guaranteed or if there's some kind of 'out' in the case of the worst case scenario and cutting ties with him as I've been hearing the contract is likely to have.
 


My fellow Patriots. Are you ready for another drama fueled by jealousy?

You should...
 
I’m usually an optimistic guy, but I say October 30th. Brown just can’t help himself. He’ll be late for a meeting or practice, and be his usual douchebag self after it happens. Belichik cuts him October 31st or trades him at the trade deadline. I just think this ends badly.

My hopes and dreams are that both him and Gordon make it through the whole year without issues. I’m not sure that happens for either. Cautiously optimistic. Luckily, Belichik is a genius, and has Harry at the ready in week 9.
 
Dungy feels sorry that AB is a Pat is more like it. The entire country is praying this fails.
Dungy made the above tweet right after Brown was cut, but before being signed by NE. When it was brought to his attention that he’s now a Patriot so clearly it seems to be working out for him (and he won’t be a “big loser in the end”, most likely), Dungy’s response was “We’ll see.”

But none of this is new information.

Given the existence of the league's/sports media's Gate fetish, anything is possible.
 
But none of this is new information.
How so?

At first, i thought AB was going crazy

But if it was nothing but a premeditaded, architectured scheme, to get the Raiders to release him (and possibly for the Patriots to get him)... Are you confident they won't crusade against us?

Cause I am not. I remember Deflate gate so clearly. At first started like a joke, but i never started laughing
 
The more i think about the AB signing. The more i hate it. this clown isn't capable of just focusing on football. It's not if there will be a problem. But when.

I don't see where he is implying the Patriots did anything wrong. Of course Brown tried to accelerate his release. What an investigative reporter. What's Mort going to report next, kernels of corn don't digest all the way and often are visible in turds?

But yes, Mort is still a sh!t nugget.
