Antonio Brown

Whether or not the "headlines" are exaggerating, there is no way you can consider these texts as anything other than negative.

Ooh, AB did something negative! We should hang him in public!

Some of you people are really unbelievable. Was what he did dumb? Absolutely. Was it criminal, or in any way something that would justify action being taken against him by the NFL? Not remotely, and anyone implying otherwise is just dishonest.

Careful, he may consider this a threatening post, looking into his profile. You could be banned from the forum by noon.

I'm not being critical of him being 19 years old. All I meant was that patstastic is a kid who doesn't know any better due to his age. Heck, at 19, I probably would be saying the same stuff he is.

He's the GM. He's gotta have the organization's best interest in mind at all times.

He failed here imo.

Like you would know anything about good GMing?

She could have said no. Don’t publish it. I bet she got paid for it to be published. It’s always like that.

You're gasping for straws. Do you know for sure that she got paid? IF the allegations are true, shouldn't she be allowed to speak her truth without fear of reprisal? You obviously think not.

lol to one last warning. When he scores 6 TDs this week and the Chiefs get Ramsey, everyone be like "never mind"

Just go 19-0 if you going to do this to the nation.

I'm not sure I would enjoy going 19-0 with scum like that on the team. There's more to life than football. This man is deranged. If the Pats cutting Brown means no SB this season than so be it. They have six SB's. I'm a human being before a football fan. This poor girl has been through hell.

Cut your losses now Bill.

The douche is still rolling is Brady’s rolls this morning.

Stop saying she got paid for it. You have no idea if that’s true and it’s almost definitely not.

Its almost definitely not true? Are you serious right now? You don't think the SI piece was a hit job? You don't think she, and others, were paid for their information? You my friend, are quite naive. I am pretty sure all of us know she was paid SOMETHING by SI either directly, or indirectly for her story, otherwise, why would she do it, since you know, she isn't asking for money or anything...

This crap isn't going to stop until he's gone.

Better. I know a TON about bad GMing.

This is so disingenuous I don't even know where to start.

Start with how sending a text can meet the standard of activity detrimental to the team allowing suspension or firing.

I swear that writer has it in for brown. It looks almost personal.

There is no doubt about this. Klemko would like nothing more than to be the guy that takes AB down. If AB so much as double parks, Klemko will overhype it and try to make a big story out of it. That’s why this is so crazy, AB needs to understand that people have it in for him and he needs to lose the phone until things settle down.

Yes but there’s ways of handling it. Again take him to civil court if you have proof he didn’t pay you. I would be pissed if that story came out in a national sports magazine.

Bill has taken on malcontents before like Moss, Dillon, Revis, Ocho Cinco, Adalius Thomas, and Haynesworth. Most of the time it works out just fine. I think he knows what he's doing.

Potentially bad person is pissed his bad acts came out in national sports magazine. So sad!

I'm glad we're using Hill as a comparison. Because all of you thought he definitely shouldn't be suspended when all the allegations about him came out.

/s

Hill is being used as a comparison to establish what an actual threat is and how the nfl didn't punish him for threatening.

No one is saying Brown shouldn't be punished if the sexual assault allegations are true. No one is saying he shouldn't be punished if he did actually threaten. But there is no threat in those text messages. Brown questioned why she did it and then wanted to get dirt on her thinking she's doing it for money. Him looking to get dirt on her is really no different than what Rober Klemko/SI did to him.

The other problem when comparing it to Hill is there are no criminal actions, just hearsay and one civil lawsuit that hasn't even been served to Brown yet. Hill had a prior domestic abuse charge and there was a criminal investigation which was to the point his kid was removed from the home while the investigation happened.

It's the fact that the media is now trying to say he deserves to be suspended because he allegedly didn't pay someone and walked out in a towel to greet her.

If that's true, fine, sue him and be done with him.

But why are we throwing tantrums in the media? It's just ridiculous that as a society it's not about right or wrong anymore, especially with a celebrity, it's about narrative and who believes the headline they're reading.

My ex fabricated text messages like these for our divorce. I never sent them. They were screen shots like this. I went to Verizon and got all the texts I sent and submitted them to the judge. The judge ripped him a new one for fabricating fake messages.

I am not saying that is what is happening here with AB. I am saying that it is not out of the realm of possibility. Not likely or probable, but possible. It happened to me.

I didn't think it possible but we just passed the Malcolm Butler megathread.....(I know it was locked)
Malcolm Butler Mega Thread
EDIT- didnt see Icy's post

Ladies and gentlemen, I present you, Robert Klemko!

SI Writer Suspended Four Weeks After Alleged Incident With Cab Driver

Klemko was arrested at his apartment last weekend and charged with misdemeanor battery and criminal trespass after allegedly fighting with a cab driver and briefly commandeering the driver’s vehicle.
