We're going to sign that free agent kicker who never misses up to 70 yards and whose kicks always go straight down the middle.
Carli Lloyd?

How can a crime be committed it what you did doesn’t meet the legal description of the crime?Exactly this.
For one second let's just ignore the actual content. His employer, the overall league, and his cousel all told him not to contact this woman. Not only did he contact this woman, he brought multiple of his friends in to the text chain so they could all engage with her at once.
That by itself is intimidating before you go into some of the dumb stuff he said. It probably doesn't meet any legal definitions or it would be a very grey area case because he was vague enough in what he did. But it was definitley intimindating and harrassment.
Bitterly disappointed that this thread is still going on. Why???? He's gone. He's gone because his actions WHILE he was here was damaging to "the brand"
He was a $6MM bargain while he was here, and now he'll be a $5MM burden on the cap that the Pats will likely get back in 2020.
That's it. Nothing left to talk about unless you simply want to argue minutia. PLEASE use your energies to create other threads that discuss the Patriots that hare HERE!
Hill said to his girlfriend that "you should be afraid of me too". Threat? Absolutely...Goodell did nothing..
It a borderline thing. A judge and jury could read into it and find harrassment and stalking if they wanted to, but it's irresponsible for a lawyer to go straight to criminal charges on something not so cut and dry that could go either way when the easiest recourse was to just go to his employerHow can a crime be committed it what you did doesn’t meet the legal description of the crime?

I think he is an entitled arrogant idiot. And when it was time to receive some form of discipline he acted like an entitled arrogant idiot.Andy. We were both trying to wrap our heads around how this played out yesterday. After the NFL’s statement last night do you think there was a heads up thrown to the Patriots or just a bad exchange with AB? It does not really matter I am intrigued if he shot his mouth out of town or just an accumulation of the controversies
Now that he's no longer a Patriots, it does look like overblown PR noise. As soon as it settles down and he stays off social media, someone will offer him a cheaper contract. The NFL is a bottom-line win-now business, a vet minimum contract can easily nullify the paid leave.
Won't happen. The league sent out a memo yesterday saying in so many words, "because Antonio Brown is not on a team, he can't be put on the exemption list, if he was on a team, he would be eligible to be put on it".Now that he's no longer a Patriots, it does look like overblown PR noise.

Klemco did say another criminal suit is coming..this is why the Pats cut him, IMO
Something being threatening and something being legally actionable are two different things. You get in an argument at a bar with somebody and say "keep talking, see what happens". Yeah that's threatening, but no real lawyer is going to waste time on it unless they have a rich client who just wants to blow money and tie someone up in court.Her attorney knows it was not threatening. The Nfl will investigate this and nothing will come out of it. They have already done their damage.

Which really means, "don't sign him, he ****ed up, right now we can do an invesitigation at our own pace and not have to worry about it, if you sign him, you'll force our hand and we'll put him on the exemption list and you'll be stuck paying him".
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if the Pats in large part released him because they had a lot of money tied up into him and wanted to beat the NFL to the punch by releasing him before he was placed on the exemption list and they were stuck with his contract.
no, this was after his SI story..a lawyer reached out to him and said he had a client that would be filing a suit. BS? could be sure.What criminal suit? If it’s this painter she has to provide evidence. Klemko has been saying this for weeks now. The guy needs to get a life. He’s heavily invested in this.
No. It doesn’t work like that.It a borderline thing.

that makes sense..Won't happen. The league sent out a memo yesterday saying in so many words, "because Antonio Brown is not on a team, he can't be put on the exemption list, if he was on a team, he would be eligible to be put on it".
