    I seen guys with serious head injuries never rob, steal, murder, or rape. So........:shrug:
    If You have ever been knocked out , You have had serious brain injuries.
    I seriously know 2 hands full right now, including myself, and none of them do that stuff. :shrug:

    AB has had over 100 million dollars worth of contracts and now is flat broke facing serious prison time allegations. Head injuries aside someone has to be seriously stupid to end up this way.

    I guess the quasi-satirical the "Bring Back AB as Steelers WR1" bros are in shambles

    In any case, in case it's not known to everyone, Miami PD issued a warrant for AB's arrest after a May night club shooting incident. If arrested, he faces attempted homicide charges. It appears, however, that he's gone off to "the middle east". What a f---ing disaster that guy turned out to be. CTEs are no joke.

    No, he was a head case coming out of college, which is one of the reasons why he dropped so far in the draft.. (hmm, that sounds familiar)...

    A flip did not switch after the Burfict hit, as he had plenty of stories prior to that.. The fame and money just took it all to a whole different level of chaos once he became a superstar.

    Yeah I've been knocked out cold 3 times before and I never once considered doing any of the crazy things that Brown has done.

    While I am not a career criminal with an extensive background in avoiding the law.......I am going to go out on a limb and say that posting videos of where you are on X while you have a warrant for your arrest for attempted homicide......does not show a good thought process.

    Only 24 countries do not have an extradition treaty with the US. In the Middle East: Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. So he is probably in The UAE. It is the most 'westernized' country on that list. While The UAE does not have an extradition treaty with the US, they will extradite people that meet certain criteria. Brown's situation will probably meet most of those checkmarks.

    I would not be surprised if there is already a US Marshall on the way to The UAE to have him handed over.

    I honestly feel bad for the guy. Whether he had issues before the hit, or if they came after, he was an excellent player. I don't remember tons of drama around him until near the end of his time with the Steelers. Maybe I just don't remember the bad things, but to me he was a good Steeler while he was here. After he left, he absolutely jumped into the deep end of the crazy pool though. He needs a lot of sessions talking to Dr. Freud.

    The Burfect hit really changed AB for the worse. I think he was so good that I’d rate him a top 10 (all-time) best WR to ever play the game. I’m an older Steelers fan so I don’t believe there will be another (Steelers) AB in my lifetime. He was that talented. It’s unfortunate that his mental acuity has diminished to this degree.

    I criticize Tomlin a lot on here, but I give him great credit for getting 10 years of production out of AB. I can't think of anyone else on the planet that could have done that. Astonishing coaching job. My respect.
