It's true but I want to say something

@Hot Sauce Guy I apologize if we are wrestling. I'm bitter(Not FF) and mad and so perhaps the fan side getting the better of me but I thought with the way things have been lately that the Shark Pool would likely agree with my premise because this could happen with other players and we also have players raising their hands and saying they have mental health issues and we want to believe them...but that means that there has to be a protocol or a "set of rules" that needs to be followed. 

The fact it is AB with a long and distinguished list of haters doesn't help, I get why folks hate on him, so do I typically.

Now this is how you handle things.

Kudos to both you guys.

Wow. Just….wow. 

I think the suggestion above might be on point. He might have forgotten there’s an 18th game, & got pissed that he wasn’t going to hit his $1M in incentives. 

It would certainly explain a lot.

That doesn't explain anything to me, he refused to go back into the game where he could have earned those incentives, he easily could have gotten them with how much time was left in this game.

Yeah, so…I became aware of that information after I’d posted that so…changes things. 

 
He is a complete idiot, self centered piece of garbage.  Dont want to hear any excuses either about "mental" issues. He is just an awful human being,  case closed

Osaka and Biles calmly said "I have a problem and need to step away."

Brown did /that/

That's apples and hand grenades bro

Plus, to my knowledge, Biles and Osaka have not been accused of sexual assault or of almost crushing a 1-year old by throwing furniture out of a 14th story apartment.  Brown gets zero sympathy from me.

Just talked to Bruce Arians who said he was trying to get AB to go into game & AB refused. Tried again Brown refused & Arians told him to get out. On if he saw AB take his jersey off. “Yeah, I did. Never seen anything like it in all my years.”

While I've never seen anything like this, I have seen players lose their minds getting THROWN OUT of a NFL game, think others have ripped off their jerseys on the way to the tunnel, but I wouldn't bet a lot of money on that. 

-Plaxico Burress spiking a live football and listening to Berman and Tom do the replay of it on Primetime was one I thought I'd never see again. 

What have you got for off the chain unbelievable because I don't have a lot. 

Plax spikes it

Everyone has seen Jim Marshall going the wrong way and it predates my birth but I have to imagine that would be pretty shocking to see live. Or on tv as it were. Imagine that play in the age of social media.

I would still like to murder Marion Barber /s for going out of bounds against the Broncos a few years back. Got Teboed in OT. 

IDK Malice at the Palace probably takes the cake. And a dude that played for the Bills and ran for 2000 in 14 games.

Tom Brady forgetting what down it was is something I never thought would ever happen in a million years. 

 
I once saw a running back return a kick, pull out a pistol and shoot players, then stop and kill himself. Then Bruce Willis and Damon Wayans kick everyone’s ###.

oh.... wait....

This is on Bruce Arians.

Bruce Arians is an awful human and coach and his humiliations in this matter is awesome. 

To be so ignorant on the cancer you allow on your team to go back on your own word and him to just do this.

Arians isnt a good coach and its all Tom Brady. Bruce Arians can get fired tomorrow and the team wont miss a beat.

Easily a bottom-5 coach in the league.

@Bigboy10182000 Thinks he's currently a top 8 coach in the entire NFL lol

 
Assuming that Brown was told by Arians to "Get out" which implies he was throwing him off the team since AB refused to go into the game. 

Did Bruce Arians fire Brown at the Press Conference or on the Sidelines? I think its debatable but I don't want a repeat of earlier but I think it at least shows...OK I'll let it go but I did like that he spent some time in the back of a squad car even if it was an escort to the airport. Was AB broke? Couldn't get a Lyft? 

 
Arians is very good coach.

He (and the GM) rolled the dice on a nutcase but talented player.

End of story, and (I hope) the end of Antonio Brown's NFL career.

Arians entire body of work is very impressive and I will never forget the Coach for Indy that had cancer and he couldn't stand that Arians was winning and he would try and show up when Arians was getting credit for the victories, nothing agains that coach but Arians has succeeded almost everywhere he has been, needs a veteran QB typically to do his best work. He came out of retirement purposely because he liked the roster the Bucs had in place, I still think they can reload, players line up to try and win rings with Brady, there will be new faces next year. 

One thing I hate is how Brate and OJ Howard are wasted in this offense, their better than most of the back up WRs they have. I don't hate on Arians like everyone else but he also made a mistake with brown knowing that he should have cut it with the last installment of Brown's madness but he had Godwin go down and couldn't pull the plug on AB. 

I do think the team will rally around Tom into the Playoffs and feel like they can still get it done if they get Shaq and Fournette back in the mix. 

That 2-pt play by Bell at the end of the game was surprising I would say. 

 
I just saw a pic of AB waiting for a ride. He was fully clothed & had a suitcase. Looked like he was waiting for a Lyft or private car. 

police rumor debunked.

Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe he refused to go back in to the game because of lack of targets

It’s sad, but there isn’t a receiver in the league who wouldn’t have loved to have played in TB these past two seasons. Not to mention having played for two of the best franchises in the NFL.

So he did get into the back of a police car?

i’m trying to avoid a timeout here but the level of joking about a guy who obviously has mental illness issues is sad. in the shark pool and the psf i guess it’s understandable, mop i would think you’d have more compassion for the guy since you exhibit the same level of sainness

Maybe you should be asking Brown's employers why he was even out there if he had such obvious problems.

Strange..WRs that don`t want back in a game? 

What I love about the NFL is that no other player on TB really gives a dam when Brown was in his tantrum.  Just looking at him.  It is the NFL..next man up baby.

Like TO, Ocho, Dennis Rodman, CK found out and what Brown will find out.  They need the leagues more than the leagues need them. 

The NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL machines always keeps chugging, the player pool never ends and the players are the easiest things to replace.

Plax shot himself in the foot on that one.

 
Brady's words and I'm not sure he is actually speaking of Brown, it feels more like Tom is asking the Press to take it easy on Tom Brady if you understand what I'm saying. Compassion and empathy? difficult thing happening? Tom is talking about himself and the team around him I might add.
