The Swamp

If that's Hollywood, FL, he's likely in for a world of hurt in family court, (if he cares about time with his kids). Florida family law judges don't take kindly to shit like this. Allegations like this happen all the time, but to do so in front of the police, and video it, is a whole 'nother level of unfit.

Really he just keeps saying get the fuck out if here. Hi. Bitch, etc. Cops are completely disinterested in the verbal nonsense. People love video!

I legitimately wonder if CTE is an issue here. Or some other neurological condition.

I wasn't sure about CTE, but then watching Hard Knocks and all the stuff that happened since... That's my bet.

You might have more insight on his CMU days, but it just seems like he was a decent dude and then something the last 3 years has changed dramatically.

Pretty much every time you read about a player who dies with CTE, there's always the mid-career "he was a great guy" and then later life "he changed, he had mood swings, he lashed out, etc". By all appearances, Brown is the same trajectory, just accelerated.

I think it would be overstating it to say he was a decent dude. He was difficult at CMU and Pittsburgh, but manageable from everything I've heard. I really do think there's a possible mental/neurological condition at play, but I also think he's been laser-focused his entire life on football and proving people wrong about where he was drafted, etc., etc. and now that that's been taken away, the wheels are coming off. It's probably some from Column A and some from Column B.

Throwing the bag of gummies into the street was an interesting fact added to some of the articles I had seen (including a close up of the bag). And the fact that he had them easily accessible.

I’ve been morbidly fascinated with Brown’s Twitter posts and also read up a bit on his background. You take seems pretty plausible to me. He’s had his share of off-field issues going back to high school, but the erratic behavior in recent months is insane.

I think the problem runs much deeper than CTE. Read about his childhood and how he got to where he is. Sometimes when things are ruff, we compensate and become driven to be the best without ever dealing with the problems that got us to where we are at. Some cases we crash and burn, other cases we reach a pinnacle like he did and then crash. Sadly he didn't get or never was able to receive the help he needed. We all live in an insulated world and have no idea what he went thru and how it drove him to get where he is at but we can all judge when he crashes and burns. I think there are a lot of emotional scars that he needs help dealing with...

His location is a top 3 worrying thing over this whole saga.

If only Kobe was still around to get in on the fun.

Your mom's name is 'Antonio Brown' because everyone gets a turn.

(Not your mom, Rass. Someone else's mom.)

Antonio Brown and Russell Wilson seems like a good combination which will lead to no problems, whatsoever.

Isn't Antonio Brown the NFL's version of "don't stick your dick in crazy."

If he can keep his shit together for three months could be the version of "Randy Moss on the Patriots", especially if he goes to a team like the Seahawks.

I don't know if he can keep his shit together though. His going to the Pats last year was almost the perfect place for him. He was going to get the ball a shitload, they were going to be very successful, and he was basically living with Brady to keep him out of trouble and he still fucked up. Maybe if they take away his cell phone and lock him in the training room when he's not on the field but he's too far gone to keep his fingers off his phone and his hands of the ladies that throwing themselves at him.

Yes, but in that analogy, he is a really hot broad.

Arians must have really made an impression on him during the season or so they were together in Pittsburgh.

Just got the push note it's confirmed.

Funny thing is that Tampa Bay is probably among the teams that is least in need of a ball-hungry receiver. Are there enough balls for Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, Adam Humphries, O.J. Howard, Cameron Brate, Rob Gronkowski, Ronald Jones, AND Antonio Brown?

My worst take ever is that Ben was the problem. And I’ve had a lot of terrible takes.

Almost certainly not. Brady trying to be lebron here.

There’s a good chance he isn’t rich.

Doesn't the NFL still have the ability to suspend him before he returns to play?

C’mon. When people call Brady “little finger” it’s not because he’s a shadowy figure pulling the strings behind the scenes. They’re being literal.

Because I didn’t think of framing the joke that way...
