You don't think it's suspicious that a free agent would actually WANT to join the best managed team in the league? Wow, get a load of this guy! 😂 He actually thinks people want to join winning teams.

goskins10 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 AB goes to the Patriots - https://sports.yahoo.com/antonio-brown-patriots-deal-raiders-release-210019719.html?.tsrc=bell-brknews I almost posted this would happen right after he was released by Oakland. This has the potential of a Randy Moss look to it. Or he could bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but for a different reason and I wouldnt think it was staged to get where he wanted to be all along. I would've stayed on he has CTE and jus cutting him before confirming that does this mental health conversation no justice. And that's where i stop because that convo probably belongs in the tailgate. Now we ignoring mental health in the middle of a conspiracy with the cheatingest ass dynasty in NFL history.

So you are faulting the Raiders before confirming he has CTE.... How are the Raiders supposed to force a player to get tested for CTE? What are they going to do if he refuses? Cut him?

They would be shown to be liars. You cannot confirm CTE without dissecting the brain which requires the subject be dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I wonder if Belly's attempt to corral him in, includes barely using him to keep his massive ego in check. Feed him just enough to shut the **** up. It was easy to see his apology was not sincere in the least, that he hated being there and was just going through the motions. I give it until week 6 when he overreacts to Brady not seeing him being wide open, and Belly releases his ass immediately after mouthing off at the first chance after the game.

We need to find the leprechaun they've captured and release it. This is getting out of hand. The Pats now have Antonio Brown, Josh Gordon, and Julian Edelman as their starting receivers. And we get to play against all 3 of them, goody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I don’t think it’s rigged at all. The timeline sets up perfectly. He swallowed his pride, apologized to the team, and right after that was over the Raiders handed him papers indicating his guarantees no longer existed. AB is a nut, but Mayock and Gruden are morons.

I suppose paying professionals to send paperwork could be an unfair advantage, maybe Belichick needs to be forced to write out contracts himself, by hand. Or it could be the Patriots acted like a competent team that noticed over the past month that a volatile player was doing everything right to get released by his team, and actually planned ahead.

Yeah, no doubt they’ve been working out the paperwork long in advance and things really got heated up this week. I hate them but envious indeed.

So, all due diligence done by both parties over an hour or so? That is pretty much how most free agent signings go, I guess. 2 minutes ago, BatteredFanSyndrome said: Yeah, no doubt they’ve been working out the paperwork long in advance and things really got heated up this week.

abdcskins Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I got the ESPN notification that AB had been signed. Before I opened it up I guessed the Patriots, and sure enough I was right. Seems like the only place he could go that would not put up with his bull****. I really hope Belichick and Brady give him a stern talking to, maybe even a spanking. He must behave or he's off the team. Zero incidents or you're gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only positive to him coming to DC would be so he could actually punch Bruce Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
