T master Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) At one point & time in the NFL there were guys willing to work their butts off to be the best show up & do what it took to let their legacy be written on the field & eventually in the holy grail of football the HOF . Even Marshawn Lynch with the way that he handled some things gave the game & it's fans something to route for when he stepped on the field being the guy that conformed to the rules but did it in a way with that mischievous style but still conformed to what was asked of him, but then there are the other guys ! The guys that have this "it's all about me & my way" belief ! I don't mind guys that are like let's say Steve Smith he was very out spoken but was a team guy, TO with all his antics & even when he stood on the star in Dallas he didn't cut me like some of these players today . And to this point i have not seen one which i didn't see it coming & i'm not sure if any one did before this but AB has just totally made me not like the guy even given all he has done on the field what he has done off the field has ruined it for me ! He has done this most recent interview & it tells me as a fan all's i need to know he says "he doesn't need the game" that made him a millionaire that "he's going to do it his way or he's not going to do it at all because he's a millionaire & doesn't need to do it the way a certain team might want him to" ? ! http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001020572/article/antonio-brown-i-dont-even-have-to-play-football Sorry but i hope after seeing this he get's to ride off into the great white north & play for the CFL or something & no team in the NFL gives him another shot ! This guy is going to charge a kings ransom to get on a team & if he doesn't like any thing the team is asking of him to do he'll quit on them again & still collect his millions & cry all the way to the bank while doing it because he will have his contract guaranteed . I feel sorry for the fool that signs him because this guy is a cancer to any team that is will ing to take the chance to put him on their roster !! I think McD & company can see that to or at least i hope so because he's broadcasting loud & clear to all that will listen ... I know there are articles already on this subject but this guy is a piece of work & it just really sends me head reeling when he is as disrespectful to the exact thing that has put him where he is in his life & allowed him to live better than even he could have ever imagined it just blows me away so sorry for the clutter on the site ...

teef Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 the more i hear out of that guy's mouth, the less i would want him on this team. i think talent alone i'd still want him, but wow what a moron. he just seems to be making himself a risky sign. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams are almost forced into this stance due to the volatile talk coming from him. Why would any team put out salary cap/guarantees for a guy you can not count on from one year to the next or even one game to the next. Any trade could he also could be required he show up and play or deal negated. Also could include conditional assets going to Pitt depending on how chosen boy wonder acts later on into the deal once he gets to new team. Many teams will avoid him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Linen Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Antonio Brown and players of today are mutually exclusive. Antonio Brown is embarrassing himself. Players in todays game are more dedicated than any time in history. This is a year round commitment now, that often costs the players hundreds of thousands of dollars to maintain. They play even with the knowledge of CTE, to provide for their families futures and/or love of the game. Brown is on an island - the players of today are warrior like. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Smith Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Oh boo hoo. Receivers been **** talkers for the longest. If you let these guys get you all worked up, then you sir have thin skin. It’s a friggin game, it’s not like he’s the president. Get a grip guys, I lose no sleep from what these morons say. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Breaking news: For the first time in NFL history the best WR is a bit of a Diva. Film at 11... Someone will pay him. I agree Buffalo isn’t a good fit for him and vice versa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Marshawn Lynch probably isnt the best example. Antonio Brown currently has a blonde mustache, about all you need to know about his intelligence. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billieve420 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 He will want to be the highest paid WR. If Allen develops the way we hope Brown will be on the tail end of his career. As great a WR he is just not the right fit on this team at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgotBILLStopay Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Y'all just shitting on the guy for no big reason. Has any teammate called him out yet? Not to my knowledge. Doesn't that say sthing about him as a teammate? The guy was treated badly by his QB and his coach. He wants out. The smart strategy (from his POV) is to make it difficult to trade him so that the Steelers release him and he can determine his own destiny. He doesn't want other teams to make a fair offer to the Steelers. Why become a Carmelo Anthony and undermine the team he wishes to join by having them pay an arm and a leg? From all accounts he is hardworking and helps people around him get better (like Juju). The only 2 knocks on him have been a. He was late to some meetings and b. He filmed a locker room talk. If he was as bad as y'all make him out to be, wouldn't he have been released ages ago? Most star players have way more indiscretions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
