    I remember iron Mike. CTE caused his involvement with drugs and ultimately his death. I believe CTE can cause bad behavior. I'm not sure to what extent but it's thrre

    I'm saying many people that played sport in HS, and college, that were ever in bad car accidents, that were in rodeos, that have been to war, and that takes care of farm animals are walking around with CTE, and they don't act like that.
    It's like saying everyone that dresses up like a clown is a dang John Wayne Gacy.

    I would like your answer as to whether Mike was using it as an excuse. I'm not totally disagreeing with you. But I think CTE is a huge problem for theses guys.

    All I'm saying is unless a person has lived a very very sheltered life, they are walking around with CTE. I would bet millions of people are walking around with CTE, and have never done the things that others use as an excuse of why they do the things they do.

    CTE isn't the same as getting your bell rung and seeing stars a few times over a lifetime. I mean, aren't there brain xrays out there that show the difference between a CTE brain and a "normal" brain?

    I once saw a 5 year old purposely ride his tri-cycle into a table his Mom was standing on changing a light bulb knocking her off and she fell over the banister to the ground floor.

    He was a college kid who claimed he was a CB for some small NC team Appalachian State maybe

    He quoted everything from Shannon Sharpe as gospel truth and had a hard on for AB

    But the worse AB got the more defensive the kid got until he got himself booted April 27, 2023

    I believe it was Fayetteville state university. At lfirst he said he would be attending FSU in the fall to play football. Someone congratulated him on playing for Florida state and he corrected them. No idea if he made the team etc

    I haven’t seen anything about an attempted robbery etc. however, he did take a gun from his security guard and go chasing after someone and subsequently fired shots. Chasing after someone with a gun is definitely not self defense

    He never indicated he was starting and I believe I asked him once

    I don’t want to make too much fun of the deceased but if I tried to actually teach him something his response was always “I don’t care” so I wonder if he remained academically eligible

    MIAMI -- Former NFL star wide receiver Antonio Brown walked out of a Miami jail on Thursday, released on $25,000 bail after pleading not guilty to a second-degree attempted murder charge.

    Brown, 37, embraced attorney Mark Eiglarsh outside the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami. He held a bag of belongings as they walked to a nearby food truck, where Brown got a drink, and then they left in the lawyer's vehicle.

    Circuit Judge Mindy Glazer ordered Brown to wear a GPS ankle monitor as he awaits his trial. He faces a potential 15-year prison sentence and a fine up to $10,000 if convicted.

    Prosecutors had sought pretrial detention, contending Brown is a former professional athlete with resources to flee. Eiglarsh told the judge Wednesday that Brown, who no longer has a passport, would return to his home in Broward County, Florida, while the case proceeds.

    Brown said it was an attempted robbery way back when it happened in a post or something

    Now he claims he had his own gun and didn’t take one from the security guard and he shot in the air

    And AB is a standup honest person
