    Prodigal son. http://www.ncregister.com/blog/jimmy-akin/12-things-you-need-to-know-about-the-prodigal-son

    I know this is wishful thinking. I am very disappointed in AB since last game of 2018 season. He had a great game the week before in NOLA. There is good in everyone. I sure wish he gets help. If everything is true, he will be the next AFC North Ray Rice because the league won't allow the possibility for prodigal son, even if the Steelers welcomed him back.

    Second stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers[edit]
    Burress re-signed with the Steelers on November 20, 2012, after injuries sustained by Jerricho Cotchery and Antonio Brown.[19][20] On December 30, 2012, Burress caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Burress had not caught a touchdown from Roethlisberger since 2004. On March 12, 2013, Burress signed a one-year deal to stay with the Steelers.[21] He suffered a torn rotator cuff during a practice on August 8;[22] on August 13, Burress was officially placed on the injured reserve list by the Steelers.[23]


    Retirement[edit]

    After being out of the league for nearly three years, Holmes returned to the Steelers on October 10, 2017, for a retirement ceremony, saying: "It's an honor to retire as a member of the Steelers and leave a legacy everyone will remember."[21]

    Now go back and read it again and you might get the point. I don't trust anything they said based on the words alone, but they did give up a very high price for Bush. That tends to support the idea that they really like him.

    Attaching the Bush deal to the Brown deal is a false narrative that benefits Colbert. He has motivation to lie and it costs him nothing. Throw in the fact that they didn't use any of the assets from the Brown trade in the Bush deal and there is very good reason to believe that Colbert was just trying to make himself look better with a false narrative.

    My posts were consistent despite your erroneous claim otherwise.

    Based on your claim, if Brown had behaved himself and helped the Patriots win a Super Bowl while the Steelers offense faltered without him, the move was still a good one. You're funny. Wrong, but funny.

    You are doing exactly what you accuse me of doing, refusing to come clean when you are wrong.

    Hilarious. How long did it take to decode his text messages? Six small paragraphs took 3X's as long as any normal one.

    But, I still think some sorry ass team will swim in that cesspool.

    You are dead wrong. It doesn't matter if the Patriots won the SB this year and next year with Brown. Getting him out of the locker room and off of the team was what was in the best interest of the team regardless of what happens afterwards. You take care of your own team first. There was no new evidence that changed anything.

    Look no further than New England. They grew tired of his antics and the distractions and cut bait. What if Brown is cleared of all wrongdoing and the Chiefs pick him up late in the season and he helps them beat the Patriots and win the Super Bowl? Did the Patriots make a mistake releasing Brown so soon?

    Are you really going to question Bill Belichick?

    Biggest winner in all this is Kevin Colbert. Biggest loser two years running is the Oakland Raiders.

    Can we please trade Donte Moncrief to the Radiers for a 3rd round draft pick in 2020?

    Allegedly abusin & raping women, almost killing a baby, terrorizing the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area is not minor. All this happened under Tomlin and he hid it, Steelers should not be proud of that

    How exactly did he hide it? Are you insinuating that the Steelers knew about the trainer’s rape allegation, and swept it under the rug?

    Hasn't been right since that concussion hit in that division game. CTE?

    So, when does he end up at Baltimore?
    Start the clock.

    NFL teams have whole investigation groups. You think we don’t? They keep tabs on all the players. It sure seems he was covering for all of AB’s antics. Now all the stories are coming out but Tomlin didn’t know.
