Haha, bullsht**t.
I'm on the left and annoying SJW's love flaming people like this guy. Race was not involved here, and SJW's know this guy is a violent individual that sexually assaults and beats women and now has bailed on his team. People on the left also hate overpaid athletes. I don't think anyone is propping up AB after this.

What are you an idiot? They pay these guys millions of dollars to play a frigging game. Most of them would be lucky to make minimum wage somewhere else.
You know what else is funny, that Tom Brady keeps getting this guy back into football. If he does have a CTE issue why would anyone suggest he takes more hits to the head playing football. Just Tom looking for more guys to make him look good, always about TomME.

I think you’re the idiot for taking the bait. Dummy.

BLM logic "nfl players are slaves to the owners and leagues." Maybe BLM should start tackling real issues that plague the black community rather instead of hammering false flag narratives for clout and profit.

BLM says that? Your last sentence is bizarre.

you're saying he bailed on $1M in incentives with a superbowl-bound team so that he could return to Pittsburgh? Ummm..... yeah.
Go read the ESPN article about AB and TY Hilton. Pay careful attention to AB’s homelessness in high school, including the reason why, then imagine how you would have fared in the same situation?
Then check the Fox News article about how AB didn’t think his ankle (that kept him out of practice multiple days last week) was healthy enough to keep playing this weekend. The coach said team docs disagree and if you don’t go back on the field you are gone.
Factor in the likelihood of a CTE component and begin to understand some of the erratic behavior (to lump the illegal acts with the lesser misdeeds) and maybe you might begin to see how a person gets to the place AB is in now. Maybe then some of you might reconsider trashing another human being anonymously on a message board they will never read.
Or you could just find someone you know who could use a positive word and do something to make the world slightly less terrible for a brief moment?

Colin Kaepernick did an entire documentary on how the NFL is modern day slavery... it was basically SJW porn for morons and BLM and the left loved it.

Wow, good job. SOOO ORIGINAL. NO ONE has made this comment yet!
Stop making excuses for a bad guy, he has millions, no need to be a dick. He has been given a million breaks because he can play a game, yet he is still a dick. He was a dick when he went to college, and he is a dick now, stop with the CTE excuse. He is reportedly worth 20 million, yet still treats people like crap, he needs to go away.

I don't think you know or can articulate what either the Democratic or Republican parties stand for. Would love to hear you try.
Show respect to a future Hall of Famer wrote:
Antonio Brown's career catch percentage, 66.0% Jerry Rice's career catch percentage, 62.4%. Many of Rice's catches were 5 yard slants with run after catch. Cris Carter's career catch percentage, 60.3%. Steve Largent, 65.4%. Terrell Owens', 57.7% catch percentage. Randy Moss 56.4% catch percentage. N.F.L. QBs were confident short pass, intermediate pass, long pass, open, single coverage, double coverage or triple coverage, Antonio Brown was going to catch the ball 2/3rds of the time. Hall of Fame criteria: Cannot tell story of N.F.L. without Antonio Brown. Brown, like or not is a Hall of Famer.
The passing game has changed too much to compare catch %. Some current catch percentages:
Ben Thomas 77%
Cooper Kupp 72%
Chris Godwin 71%
Randall Cobb 70%
Christian McCaffery (RB) 81%
Rondale Moore? 85%
The Hall will be fine without AB.
This they guy with a credible sexual assault charge that the Bucs had no problem signing & football fans had no problem ignoring? Don't give a guy like this his own thread.

I think he planned this "tantrum" out so he could be let go. He probably misses Ben and wants to talk him into playing one more season together so they could both go out on a high(er) note.
Ben hasn't got one more season. He's got a couple of weeks

Well, thank Tom Brady for signing Brown, Tom will do anything (even cheat) to win and will bring anybody along to help make him look good. Tom is not a man of integrity.

couple weeks? more like a few hours. he's done after tonight's game, even *if* they somehow manage to beat the browns.

I( never understand when people say this. How is it slavery? These players are not forced to play they can get a real 9-5 job nobody is forcing them to play this game. They don't like the contract that is offered well then go pump gas or work construction or use that college diploma you earned (I really thought I could say that last part with a straight face)
So, the guy was homeless at 16 due to an unstable family situation then goes to FIU where he is walking across campus and people he is with get in an altercation. AB then freaks out and takes off when the campus cops show up. AB doesn't get caught in the moment but FIU admin gets wind of the incident and he's booted. Juxtapose this with another college kid named Tommy Rees at Notre Dame who got caught drinking under age at party getting busted while the QB. Rees gets caught on the scene as he was too drunk to outrun a cop and initially charged for kneeing a cop while "resisting".
In your version, AB is a dick in college for getting kicked out and then going to CMU. At CMU he excels after showing up as a walk-on and earning a scholarship as a receiver despite playing QB in high school? Rees got his most serious charges dropped as the starting QB and is now the OC at ND.
AB's talents have gotten him out of some seriously bad situations, some his doing. The illegal acts are going to righty cost him severely, but if you know anything about CTE (here's a beginner intro:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/chronic-traumatic-encephalopathy/symptoms-causes/syc-20370921) it's not much of a reach to think that added impulse control problems from CTE on top of the instability inherent in a difficult path in life is a good recipe for what we saw this weekend and over the past few years.
I have met a few people over my life who have had similarly challenging paths - some were very successful while most others were not. In all cases, those experiences marked and scarred them permanently.
So I am not excusing his misdeeds, I am rather suggesting that instead of spending your time calling for people to be permanently unemployable maybe do something to address the conditions that worsened his fate or at least be nice to someone else you know instead of ranting on your keyboard.
