This Victim does not appear to be a gold digger who trapped him after a night of intoxicated clubbing. This is a quiet, religious young woman who he pursued and whose sympathies and religious willingness to forgive he played upon. .
Not saying this is a false accusation ...
Religion is a funny thing. "Plus it is hard to believe Mr Big Chest praying FOR anyone other than himself." Fixed.
Neither of us really knows whether that is the case or not. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.
Yeah 1st I was thinking ya know maybe he was just dumb enough to think it be funny if he tossed a little something on her back just to see a reaction and maybe played it off more because she was acting upset Then I was like ya know maybe some fantasizing or something I dunno it does sound like an off time to say the least But stuff happens
I've known tons of quiet, religious young women who were very forgiving. None of them would have kept coming around somebody that had ejactulated on their back while they were watching something religious on their ipad.
I think it’s unlikely she made up the fact that they were both members of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
You don’t actually know that. Truly. It’s very easy to say that in a vacuum, and we don’t know whether this is true or not, but we’re talking about someone she’s known for a decade whom she likely believes is on the wrong path compared to what they intended while involved in sports and religion in college.
I don't KNOW that the sun is going to come up tomorrow.
This is similar to the thinking that most women will not go back to a man who has hit them. Or most people would not go back to a priest who has groped them. Or an employer who sexually harassed them.
Basically I don't disagree with the league in putting Ab on a time out until this get's sorted out If they choose to do so). We have a season to focus on....this has become an utter sideshow and I think we all want it to go away so we can all enjoy NFL football without this crap in the news....every single waking moment.
Not for nothing, but have any of these quiet, religious, forgiving young women told you that this is the case?
It appears neither the NFL nor the Pats were aware of these allegations prior to the reports last night. AB’s lawyer sure had that letter ready to go though ....
The Raiders did not pay him and were not locked into the guarantees until he actually played. That obviously never happened. Most likely waited to file to see how the situation in Oakland played out, if he'd be cut (and no guarantees) and/or blackballed for his actions. Sure, he already has money but easier to make this go away when the guy has an extra 30M in his pocket.
How could the Pats have had time to look into all of Browns issues? They didn't know that he was going to be released and had to act quickly in order to get this minor deal done.
NE has been looking at Brown for awhile. I'm sure they have a file on his over at Gillette.How could the Pats have had time to look into all of Browns issues? They didn't know that he was going to be released and had to act quickly in order to get this minor deal done.
Where did the part in red come from? If you're following any New Orleans-area news about the Antonio Brown flap, you'll know immediately why I'm asking.
They look like they're in midseason form....the headache might have been worth it before this newest thing emerged, but this dude is a trainwreck. They don't need that right now.
Yes, just watch that Nassar documentary. Abusers continue being able to abuse people because they are master manipulators and know which buttons to push. I am not saying this is true of AB but I certainly don't dismiss what she said happened because "most woman wouldn't go back to someone who ejaculated on her back"
They met at Central Michigan. She was there from 2009-2011 before going to LSU and they were both allegedly members of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. And no, I don’t know what you’re referring to.
I don't discount other teams being pissed about NE adding Brown and trying everything they can to see if Brown gets suspended or exempted.
Do you know for a fact he's been paid by the Patriots? Do you know for a fact the money is in his pocket?
With AB, anything is possible I think.....this gal could just be trying to fleece him too.....as squirrelly as he is, and if she's pissed at him, who knows...
You had info that I didn't have yet, it turns out. You knew her identity and how far back she went with Brown. I didn't know about her early history with Brown ... was thinking she was a college freshman down here circa 2012. Upshot: I didn't have all the info together when I posted.
Not weighing in on this particular case, but I've seen research that has indicated that false claims are rare. Here is a link that I found quickly:
Your hot take will likely need league intervention. It looks lie the Patriots are not altering their plans. Brown was at team meetings in the morning and is expected to take the practice field in an hour or so. The team's owner had his own legal issues recently. They have a player still playing with felony cocaine charges against him. I would expect that short of a league mandate telling them otherwise that the team will suit up Brown this Sunday.
Nassar involved impressionable teens/young women trying to get to the pinnacle of their sport. This Taylor woman doesn't exactly fit that profile.
You're looking at this in hindsight. Before the fiasco last week in Oakland, most people had no idea that his guaranteed money in Oakland wasn't actually guaranteed yet. Pretending like the timing of this makes it all about money is just trying to blame the alleged victim. Brown has made over $66M in his NFL career, before his NE contract. There's absolutely NO logic in arguing that she just filed this suit now because he suddenly came into money. He had money when he events allegedly occurred, EVERYONE assumed he had a lot of guaranteed money from Oakland (several podcasts last week with former players said that AB didn't even know his guaranteed money wasn't actually guaranteed until last weeks' events), and he has money now. You're making a non-factual argument.
Combination of factors - more money in his bank accounts and perfect opportunity to take advantage of his erractic behavior in Oak. I mean...c'mon. 2017 an 2018 incidents, but hold off with everything until the first week of the 2019 season?
