AB being AB.

Don't care what anyone here thinks of me.

 

I Said that was why he forced his way out of Pittsburgh. This ain't a Tampa Bay case. The steelers actively wanted to keep AB. He wanted out. In Tampa they got rid of him. He didn't ask out.

 

Let's be real, the whole Only Fans woman and things are not relevant.

What is relevant,imo, is that there has not been one report or video or whatever from a fan, a sideline reporter, a beat reporter, whoever, that AB ever asked for a trainer or doctor, or was ever attended by one.

His post-meltdown explanation of injury is tough to believe

 

If you care about what that player does on the field it should make you care about what they do off of it. If it was revealed tomorrow that Tom Brady is the leader of a strange religious cult that beliefs in ritual human sacrifice and believes the path to enlightenment is revealed through dog fighting does going to 10 SB's and winning 6 overshadow that and make it all ok? If anything done on a football field mattered so much as to excuse the wrong doing this man has done I have never seen it.

 

So you are saying AR2 should have pimp slapped him in the airport in Florida then?

 

You mean that rumor is NOT true?

 

I think it might be the source of his unholy power

 

violating team rules, especially in this covid panic era is not relevant ? this gives arians and the Bucs more leverage against AB and the pending fight with the NFLPA..

 

It isn't relevant. There are clear penalties for violating team rules per the CBA.

 

I’m not seeing a big fight from them. Pick and choose your battles. By cba rules they will file a grievance, then they will get out of his way.

 

I’m guessing his attorney has a non refundable retainer of some substantial magnitude.

 

Sad, comical, got a few AB things, still leave them out, he was dynamite, monstor plays, sad state of affairs.

Go Steelers!!!

 

When I'm evaluating someone as a football player no I don't look at off the field. It's just not my concern. Most people I don't even know how they live off the field. Can you help win games on Sunday. That's what AB was literally just saying about Tom. Tom did all that he did to help AB but he only did it because what mattered to Tom was winning on Sundays. Not what AB does anywhere else.

 

Why?

 

Because AB disrespected him.

 

So you are saying that if someone with more talent than you but is a bad student. Off the field problems that causes issues with the collegiate governing body, under age drinking, abusive to women, barely attends class, while you follow all the rules do what is required of you, you'd be perfectly OK if they kept him over you because his on the field resume is far more impressive than yours. Is that what you are saying that ability on the field and how they play the game is the only measuring stick needed?

 

Yes. It happens all the time. You think if AB was a practice squad level player the steelers would've tolerated everything they did? No. They did because his production was unmatched at the time and he was the best in the world. And in the end they STILL wanted to keep him but AB was the one asking out.

 

What did he say I can't recall.

 

That's again not about leadership. Why you think juju never bad mouthed AB? Because he talked about how he looked up to AB and he showed him how you go ain't working hard and being the best wr you can be. That's what bell was talking about. Not ben as a leader. You're trying to spin this into something it's not.

And again being cleared to play means nothing. I just saw Adam theilin a week ago be CLEARED to play a game and then leave the game midway because he couldn't go. So stop talking about just because someone had been cleared that means they couldn't make the injury flare up again. https://sports.yahoo.com/vikings-wr-adam-thielen-leaves-192641340.html

 

So? By your logic nothing AB did in Pittsburgh was wrong since he didn't do anything illegal.

 

Strike three.....
