What triggered the outburst today?
Is Antonio Brown worth the aggravation?

reported, my understanding of the buildup to Antonio Brown leaving the field midgame was Bruce Arians asking him to go in the game, Brown saying his ankle was sore, Arians telling him he was done for the day if that was the case.
I shared a townhouse wall with a badboy NFL player for a couple of years. Dude was always stirring up some kind of controversy.
These guys attain instant near-hero status when they take the field. Instant wealth and adoration.
Sucked to be his neighbor and completely turned me off of football.

That nutjob cost me my league championship in fantasy football today. I can't even be mad at him because he is obviously serious mentally ill.
we are a lot less forgiving of mental health issues than we are knee injuries. I hope the guy gets help and finds his way. No one was hurt by his actions today, but I think he has no place on the field til he has been treated.

Absolutely NO - Antonio is without question a prime example of way too
many blows to the cranium.
The poor fellow is a ticking time bomb.
BLAME THE GAME & AND NOT THE MAN.

I was a Steelers fan when I still cared about football and loved to watch prime AB back in the day. Dude's an idiot and doesn't deserve another chance IMO, but it seems like he has had problems long before he was even in the NFL. Hope he gets the help that he clearly needs.
Here's an ESPN article that discusses his background a bit, came out after his stint with the Patriots: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id...brown-ever-return-pros-complicated-nfl-legacy

Lots of mental health diagnoses by non MD's here but I'm inclined to think:
1. Narcissistic
2. Self Centered (same)
3. Entitled
Or, signed a contract with another team just prior to the "Look at Me Show" and doesn't give a S**t... If so refer to 1.

The NFL is trying everything they can to draw attention away from the CTE issue, but it's not going away. It seems many ex-players die with some sort of alzheimers and many, like Brown, have early onset mental health problems. I'm a Bucs fan and Brown was very important to this team which has had numerous injuries but at this point the situation is beyond simple wins and losses.
I can just about guarantee he will be playing somewhere next season.

Dude, didn’t you read the post right above yours? Fantasy football teams around the world are REELING!
Sexual assault is OK in the NFL, apparently.
I don't know anything about his brain, but his ankle didn't look too sore doing jumping jacks and hopping off the field during his exit.
it, like most public courts of opinion, is a cult of personality. We seem to let some go, ban others. We tell ourselves LOTS of lies to make it work.
Some guys get banned for the weirdest non illegal things and others (like Ray Lewis) become idols. We pick. We choose. and not just in football.

Sadly, as long as he wants to play, this is true.
