It was only a matter of time. Antonio Brown has gone postal again. During the third quarter of the Bucs game this afternoon, he just started removing his gear on the sideline one piece at a time, waving at the crowd and tossing the items to them until he was down to being bare-chested; then, still waving to the crowd., he trotted through the end zone while the teams were on the field and then left via the tunnel. Never a dull moment.
Fox studio crew basically implied that he's not going to hit some of his bonus thresholds, but it sure didn't seem like that's what he was arguing about on the sideline. You just know someone else is going to pick him up.
Saw that after the Chiefs - Bengals game. Never seen anything like that! Walked out of the game and The HC said he's no longer with the team. WOW!
I honestly believe the young man has serious mental issues and really needs help. Everything about him screams bi-polar with manic tendencies and what he needs is someone to step in and get him diagnosed and if appropriate get him the help and medication he needs.
Well said. Let me add that the NFL has plenty of resources. The league should figure out a way to step in immediately and try to help this young man.
Well, VY threw his jersey, shoulder pads and all in the stands in a similar fashion. Pretty much ended his pro career.
I forgot about Vince doing that. I heard during the game tonight that, post game, Antonio Brown was told that he was no longer with the team and had to arrange for his own transportation back home.
i hope it ends his pro career. walked off the field in the middle of a game with no shirt/jersey on. i wished security would have tackled him. douchebag.
Word on the street is that Arians told him to get in the game and he said no, asserting a sore ankle. Arians told him to GTFO and, apparently, Antonio took it to heart. Irony is that you don't hit bonus thresholds if you aren't in the game...and now he ALSO misses out on playoff bonuses. Nobody is going to pick him up again...some things are unforgivable, and quitting on your team mid-game is one of them. He will get signed again right after Krappy gets a starting job...
Yeah, but VY did that AFTER a game, not during a game as I recall...and then he got blackballed by Jeff Fisher.
I bet he was shocked and dismayed to learn he was off the team. As stupid as that seems. But it might be the first time he's suffered real consequences for his actions in his entire life.
Yes, a little less stupid and crazy because it was as VY walked off the field after the game. But still stupid and crazy. Then VY proceeded to cuss out his coach in the locker room. Nah, he doesn't give a ****. He released a rap song soon after.
