I’m not disagreeing with you or excusing it. But damn I wish I was being exploited for a few million dollars rather than the 24 an hour I get exploited for currently. 

You're right and I must admit for a few million I'd say please exploit me as well. Those millions help anyone deal with the exploitation and sure would buy a lot of counseling.

This entire post is garbage. And as a lifelong Steelers fan, he was plenty volatile before that hit. He was a head case in HS and college. It’s why he got kicked out of FIU among other incidents. so when did his CTE kick in?  It’s not a blanket excuse for any football player to do the dumbest things imaginable. 

 They told him to go in twice. He refused twice. Every player is told to leave at that point. Nothing looked wrong with his ankle as he stormed off throwing pads and clothes. All while releasing his new rap single, YESTERDAY!!! Just in the last couple years he’s attack delivery drivers, accused of assault on women, threw furniture off a balcony almost hitting children, committed a federal offense with fake Vax card, along with trashing PIT, OAK, and NE on his way out the door. He’s a sociopath and has been for a very long time. 
 

Let me guess this guy should just be happy he has a job and should go on the field and DEAL WITH IT and pull himself up by his bootstraps?

I guess every WR from before the rule changes can do anything and blame it on CTE. I’ve seen Lynn Swann get hit worse that that 10-15 times a year. How is it he’s still doing quite well. 

 If you are comparing the NFL of 40 years ago or more to what it's like now, with the speed and strength of these players then you are completely clueless.  Things are NOT the same.  Also it's a terrible argument to say "well other people got hit why is EVERYONE not showing CTE damage?"  I mean, we've all bumped our heads on something in our lives too, some more than others, but does that mean since everyone didn't get a concussion they don't exist?

 No. He should be happy he’s not in jail. He’s been an ass his entire life. As I plainly showed.and you chose to ignore or never knew to begin with. How many years of this pattern of behavior does it take to see this is the narcissistic behavior came long before CTE. But you go ahead and blame it something he might have. Besides he has a job still. Rapper. Just ask him.

There isn’t much difference in WRs and DBs size/speed wise. And they could cripple players(and did) without even the thought of a penalty. This is Joe Greene, with one arm, pulling an unconscious Swann off the field because he didn’t want the team to have to take a timeout with Swann knocked out. Compared to today where it’s a flag if you brush up on a WR.

 And it does exist. It’s just not an excuse for everything like you want it to be.

I believe he was told he was benched and that's what caused his outburst. He may have thought he wouldn't be played next week and felt they were skating on his money, so, he bounces. maybe?

Brown was asked to enter the game twice by coaches and refused both times. He claimed he had an injured ankle and that was when he was removed from the team.

However,his ankle seemed to be just fine when he was doing jumping jacks in the end zone as he was leaving the field.

Antonio Brown’s career in the NFL is most likely over. It’s hard to imagine another team would give the 33-year-old an opportunity and risk all the drama he brings.

Still, Brown should get the benefit of various mental health services the NFL offers players and team personnel. The league and the players’ union have plenty of resources available for anyone who needs it — if they ask.

Brady all but m acknowledged in post game that there are some serious issues. Dude likely has horrible CTE.

Perhaps, but he was a grade A dickhead long before he played an NFL snap. He also was homeless as a kid, so there’s some non-physical trauma as well.

You'll never catch me defending Burfict.  He is a dirty player and should have long ago been banned from the league.

But those clips dont tell the whole story.

AB was flopping around and reaching for a hand up fairly immediately after the hit.  Nobody thought he was unconscious much less dead.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
