Here's the thing: Whenever they get in these negotiations, the owners toss the vets a few extra bucks, and the NFLPA forgets about everything else. This is a small picture union.
You thought the Antonio Brown saga was over? NOPE! UPDATE: Patriots have released him UPDATE 2022: Bucs release him
- Thread starter ugk
- Start date

I REALLY thought the nearly FULLY guaranteed Kirk cousins contract was gonna completely change the game up.
I honestly hope they lockout when CBA negotiations come up again.
Its not over yet, in the article link below. AB can still get $9mil in the hearing tomorrow.

"That crossed the line," one source familiar with the organization's thinking told ESPN.
Now the question becomes how New England handles Brown's departure. The Patriots are expected to withhold the $9 million signing bonus they agreed to pay Brown when he signed; $5 million is due Monday and the other $4 million is due Jan. 15, 2020.
ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that Brown will file a grievance Monday to try to recoup that money, setting up a legal battle between the player and team.
Among other factors, New England will lean on the "representation and warranty" clause in Brown's contract that specifically states: "Player represent warrants and covenants to the club that he will 1) execute in good faith and to the best of his ability all of his obligations to and for the club; 2) he does not and will not participate and is not engaged or will not engage in any conduct or activity that is illegal, unlawful or immoral. And 3) No circumstances exist that would prevent player's continuing availability to the club for the duration of the contract."
However, other NFL sources strongly believe that the Patriots eventually will owe Brown the $9 million. Those sources insist that once a signing bonus is earned, it's earned, and there's no turning back.
"They are going to lose," one NFL executive predicted about the Patriots' plight in a potential financial battle with Brown.

Probably the reason why someone got on AB to delete these tweets this morning. Not a good look when your going with the team in a hearing tomorrow to get paid

he's a mediocre white qb sooo...
I didn't know,she was stalking him. They made it seem like he was out of control at the time....
That's the thing I hate about the media.......They'll put your name out there but never retract publicly....
Yeah, this is why the story starting going away. When this got exposed, the media didn't have that same energy. Also, IIRC, Sharpe was asked not to bring up her mental issues, because it would be a "bad look" for him. I think I'm right about the last part, but if I'm not, maybe someone can correct me on that one.I didn't know,she was stalking him. They made it seem like he was out of control at the time....

UNC new the facts, but kept his mouth shut and let it play out. He didn't threaten her or nothing. AB should have kept his bitch mouth shut and he would have 30 mil
He’s done and he can’t deny it
When you act a damn fool
..conduct detrimental to the team on or off the field you lose man.....rules are in place for a reason ....and conduct detrimental to the team is pretty vague....could mean a lot of bullshyt...i feel New England don't owe him shyt but his game check....and he and and his agent failed to disclose his off the field pending lawsuit ..
Which he coulda settled for 2 million...to gain 50 million and charge it to the game and told that Bish sorry you were bought so cheaply and keep rolling

I had a teacher tell us once that there becomes a point when its not an act anymore and you just are.
Im a believer,if folks in media come after you with zero evidence,you should be able to sue and get a public apology.
It's fucked up that the media can come after you will zero evidence and when the evidence shows you did nothing wrong you don't even get a fucking apology.
Shannon Sharpe returns to CBS booth after restraining order withdrawn
By MIKE KLIS | The Denver Post

The CBS network quickly reinstated NFL analyst Shannon Sharpe, after a protection order against the former Broncos star was withdrawn.
Michele Bundy, formerly of the Denver area, was granted a temporary restraining order against Sharpe by a Fulton County Superior Court in Atlanta. Sharpe agreed Tuesday to take a leave of absence from CBS until the legal matter was resolved.
The Fulton County Court said that Bundy, who was representing herself, “voluntarily dismissed” the protection order.
CBS announced Thursday it was reinstating Sharpe and he would be on the “The NFL Today” studio set this Sunday.
“I had every expectation that based on truth alone these claims would never reach a court,” Sharpe said in a statement. “This issue was dismissed in its totality and no monies and no communication were exchanged. Now, I look forward to getting to work.”
Bundy and her daughter had been living in the Denver area until she moved to the Atlanta area in June. She said in a statement e-mailed to the Denver Post: “I requested the temporary order be removed from fear of retribution, and felt our lives were in more danger with it in place.”
Denver-area acquaintances of Bundy were alarmed but not overly surprised upon hearing the news she had taken legal action against Sharpe.
“My first reaction was: ‘Oh, my God, this woman is trying to put the screws to this guy,’ ” Troy Holocker of Denver said. “Everyone knows this is a lie. This is what the woman went out to do. To hear this woman drag his name through the mud made me mad.”
In the petition filed in the Fulton County court earlier this week, Bundy alleged that Sharpe threatened her life and forced her into sex. Attempts to reach Bundy were unsuccessful. Sharpe has not been arrested or charged with a crim“She’s been infatuated with Shannon Sharpe for years to the point I think she was kind of stalking him,” Thayne Davis of Roxborough said. “She moved to Georgia to be closer to him. She has some insane idea in her head that he’s going to be in a relationship with her.”
Davis and his wife recently allowed Bundy and her daughter to live in their Roxborough home for a few months. However, Davis said Bundy had overstayed her welcome at their home and was ordered to leave in late-June.
“We had to get the police to escort her out,” Davis said. “She was fabricating stories against me too.”
Davis said Bundy had lived in Denver for several years, including a stretch when she worked for a television station. Bundy met Sharpe, Davis said, during a time when she was granted media credentials to the Broncos’ games and locker room at designated interview times. Davis said he occasionally accompanied Bundy as a photographer.
Bundy lived in New York for about five years, Davis said, then returned this year to the Denver area before recently moving to the Atlanta area.
“She sold everything she had, bought an RV and moved out to be close to Shannon Sharpe’s house,” Davis said.

Fuck boaf them niggas
Coon Smith is obsessed with Kaepernick, they got a topic about Antonio Brown yet one of the first things out of his mouth is Kaepernick....
And,to say what Kaepernick did was worse than AB is fucking ridiculous.
And,to say what Kaepernick did was worse than AB is fucking ridiculous.
Not only,did the Patriots told him not have any contact with his accuser...His lawyer told him the same thing and he still didn't listen....
Like I say, This dude needs help!!
This is a nasty ass nigga. Fart in my face and I'd swinging on you. You gotta be my sibling or my gal(it happens) to get away with some shit like that.
The doctor didn't move away or say a damn thang, Not even a "What The Fuck !" when AB farted in his face.
So either the doc has some type of fart sniffing fetish or He "Grinned and Beared It" and overlooked it because AB was a celebrity "patient/client" paying him big money.
.....or he was just trying to be professional in general to get through it regardless of who it was. Some folks don't react in the moment. The doc is not suing for the fart, just for the unpaid bill. You almost sound like you are blaming the doctor for something.
AB, biggest fool since Chicken Little
Look I use to be a fan of this dude, I was pulling for him but then he spiraled out of control and apparently he been doing this shit.
That said I don’t see a problem with what he did by bringing the cameras. No one trust the NFL and we’ve learned that from Kaep. However, AB’s issues are mostly self inflicted so the NFL don’t trust him, so everyone got trust issues.
Mello, you gotta understand he didn't bring the cameras to expose any conspiracy theories. He did the shit for Instagram likes. That's fuckin it. Dude is an extreme dickhead man.

Cousin Jack...
That boy need Jesus
You gotta find it in ya heart to forgive his f*ckery and realize its all a cry for help.
For the new year
And be glad his antics did not get a all time great coach like tomlin fired.
Fuck dat pussy cuz. And no way in hell Rooney would have gotten rid of Tomlin over Brown. That idiot would have went 1st like he did.

I’m hip. I didn’t say AB is doing this from some conspiracy against him standpoint. But if this becomes a common thing I understand it. Like I said AB has made his own bed and just reaping the consequences from it.
