Tyreek was never on that list I don’t think he just wasn’t allowed by the team to attend workouts for a while.

Ok but in the meantime he shouldn’t be allowed to play football. Release him and if he’s somehow vindicated (he won’t be) then some team can sign his rear end.

Innocent until proven guilty means we don’t throw you in jail it doesn’t mean you get to make millions playing a game.

never, not after the ball deflation thing

Putting him on the Exemption List does the Pats a favor because it allows him to get suspended in purgatory but without releasing him so on the very off chance something clears Brown he can come back to the team.

how does Antonio Brown end up hiring that rear end in a top hat. You kind of expect that even if he is innocent this clown will gently caress it up and land him in jail for 25.

You'd think his agent or someone with the team would get him represented by somebody more credible..

Because Brown drove away anyone competent from his life years ago.

If you want to have the benefit of a doubt in the court of public opinion, don't be an rear end and you can get away with all sorts of stuff.

Marvin Harrison likely killed a dude and not in self defense but he was "a professional" and poo poo and no one really cared.

Larry Fitzgerald beat the poo poo out of a woman, and he's a beloved receiver.

Big Ben probably raped a cocktail waitress and tried to get Trump's sloppy seconds from Stormy.

Kobe definitely raped a woman.

They didn't run into the "guilty until proven innocent" stuff because they didn't act like utter assholes the entire time.

So basically what i'm saying is that if you want to do hosed up poo poo and get away with as a professional athlete, at least pretend to give a poo poo. If you can't even do that bare minimum then well, don't go crying when people instantly think the rear end in a top hat did something reprehensible.

Don't forget Ray Lewis

Hey TFF Chiefs fans what exactly do you do/feel when Tyreek Hill makes a big play and everyone starts to celebrate because I strongly suspect us Patriots fans are going to be in a similar situation unless more news breaks.

This can also apply to Steelers fans and Ben.

"Wait for the investigation" is also a super easy dodge.

Especially if AB settles out of court.

If AB settles now he’s a giant moron, the time to settle is BEFORE the accusation goes public. Settling now just makes you look guilty.

But he’s a giant moron so yeah that’s probably what’s going to happen.

For context he was a 4th rookie wide receiver who flashed in his first year and was instrumental in helping the Pats win the Super Bowl against Atlanta but then chronic knee injuries kept him from every playing another down and he had to retire less than 2 years later.

Off the field he runs a charity promoting childhood literacy as he struggled with learning to read while growing up and couldn’t do so at a functional level until much later than normal. He’s written a couple children’s books.

One time at an autograph signing in his rookie year at the Pro Shop a little kid wanted to buy his jersey but since he was a 4th round rookie they obviously didn’t print any of his so he spent $250 out of his own pocket to get the kid a custom printed one to then sign.

Maybe if he didn’t devote his entire life from age 8ish to adult hood focused on nothing but the game of football desperately hoping to go pro until it all came crashing down to injury leaving him with nothing else his life would be in a much better place yes.
