Still not clear on title.

 

Is AB interested in playing again this year?

or

Are teams interested in AB's services?

 

A shame really, AB deep sixed his own career.

 

Maybe read the OP and it would be more clear for you?  Title got shortened to add updates.

What's crazy is two years ago at this time I thought he had a chance at catching Rice's records.  He could've been in the discussion as the greatest ever.

It's honestly pretty sad guy's got so much talent just can't get out of his own way.

So I should just disregard the six hours I spent reading PFF for the last three weeks telling me where he’ll sign? Ugh. I thought he “narrowed his choices” down to the Ravens, Bucs and Seahawks?

 

Prediction: He comes out of “retirement” by Sept 10 and publishes a short list of teams “he’ll play for”.

I'd prefer the bills sign Vontae Davis to this guy. If the Texans think replacing Hopkins with AB is a good move then my newfound spite for that team looks to have a promising payoff. Incredible talent no doubt, but if his mental health isnt back in check the volatility and unpredicactability is just not worth adding to a contending team, especially with a QB still on a learning curve like Watson or Allen.

It's so much about this. Settlement doesn't come together the way he likes so he talks retirement to fire the shot that there isn't any more money coming.

Just as long as his kids are far away from him and financially cared for. That's all I'm hoping for.

I wonder if Buffalo will be on that list.

 

What can Brown do for you?

You're been 'called to the bar', correct?  Sounds like a great case for a class action lawsuit, 'Football Fans v. AB'.  ?

Let’s try and get him again!  

Only if we get better than the hot air balloon entrance to camp treatment as a fanbase--I would like to see him rent out an old space shuttle to show us he's really committed this time? :doh:

Seriously, HUDS, isn't that something?

 

My daughter will be in her teens in a few years, and I can't imagine (decades ago) that should would ever end up asking me, "Dad, tell me about space shuttles."

 

"Oh, dad, while you are at it, tell me what "Blockbuster" was."

The greatest story ever is blockbuster turning down Netflix back in the day.  I think it worked out well for blockbuster.

My son asked me the other day what a Walkman was, and did I have one.  I threw a pretzel at him and called him a wisears.  He’s 21 and was trying to tweak me.  My boys especially can be wisearses.  Reminds me of you and, Huds, Ridge and so on.  They are actually pretty funny kids.  They look up crap we grew up with and say dad remember 8 tracks, vcrs, etc.  their way of letting me know in their eyes I’m old.  It’s actually pretty funny.  My typical response other than an occasional snack thrown at them is to tell them using Belicheck’s line, go insta, snap, twit something.  Cue the Roll eyes By my sons.  At least my daughter is still sweet.

Guys I know technically they are still around, and hell maybe even in your parts...milk men.

 

I mean...milk men...crazy.

 

I visited Bagel, a member of this Board but who hasn't been around for awhile, down in New England a number of years ago...and they have a milk man.  The guy delivers milk, even chocolate milk, and cheese and cream.

 

...you guys...I just miss the past a bit, ya know?

Cool story Donuts.  We didn’t have a milk man growing up in Hamburg, but when I tell people this, they laugh or are at least surprised.  We had a vending machine half a block away on South Park Ave. a milk machine.  You put you’re 50 cents in and an old cardboard quart of milk came out.  In the winter it was always frozen (shocker).  
 

I hated it as I was the youngest which otherwise means indentured servant, so you get done playing sports with you’re friends, then finish you’re hw., and Dad barking “we need milk for coffee in the morning”.  You put all that crap back on in 15 degree weather, and go down before you can watch a rerun of the Brady Bunch or Star Trek on Channel 29.

At home delivery services, Eggert Rd. / Winspear Ave. in the early 60s:

Milk delivery.  (multiple dairies)

Wonder bread / Hostess bakery products.

Green grocer.

Dry cleaners.

At times, we were a one car family, and mother at home with young children wasn't in a position to trundle three little ones onto an NFT to go grocery shopping.

If you ask my parents what was the greatest innovation of the 60s or 70s was, you would have gotten the reply when Mesmer Dairy came out with the quarts of milk in vending machines.  There was one on Century Rd. near Kensington Ave.

Donuts, speaking of the world of dairy, my grandparents in their later years operated a very small dairy farm in NE Pa, and I distinctly remember the sights, sounds and smells associated therewith—mostly positive, unless it was time to muck out the stalls :). Getting to bottle feed a tame calf by hand remains a childhood precious memory to this day. Remember these?

Antonio Brown is the Kanye West of football

Perfect VP candidate to run with Mr. West.  Panders to the 'sports' vote as West panders to the 'entertainment' vote.  Voter registration across the nation will be replaced by an Instagram account being a prerequisite to casting a vote.

This guy doesn't know weather he's coming or going must have had 1 to many hits to the head. He now says he doesn't want to retire and that the NFL needs to get on with their investigation .

 

Why would any one want this guy on their team ?
