Who will be the next team to suffer through his antics?
Patriots?? I can't imagine Belichick would deal with him.

Dunno, but now that the Raiders cut him I might be rooting for the Raiders again.

best pick up ever...this is why the pats are perennial contenders.
very little down side and infinite upside....he will either be cut within weeks or will soar under the no nonsense culture of the pats...will be interesting for sure.

What could possibly go wrong with your team having Josh Gordon and Antonio Brown as your starting wide receivers? Sarcastic Hoop

Maybe another Mad Genius? If he ends up a model citizen there how can you not think getting cut by Oakland wasn’t just a part of the Grand Plan? Anyone thinking there were back channel talks between Rosenhaus and NE before AB asked to be cut? National Drama League.

I said the exact same thing to Colleen! It all fits too perfectly, who complains and holds out over a helmet? He wanted to get released, but only on his terms. Have Brady throw me the ball instead of Carr? Hmmm...ok! He gets one more big contract next season after he toes the line (mostly) and goes deep into the playoffs this year. Act like a pro, yo.

I predict the Pats miss the playoffs. Brown is incapable of change, as is Gruden. The real winner (as usual) is the players agent. I could see Brown and Brady throwing down when AB doesn't get his share of looks. I see a pattern here with Brown unable to get along with Big Ben or the Raider GM. Every empire falls and it's usually from within. Bob Kraft has serious karma issues. Brown is gonna be a diva no matter what. Gronk is gone. The O-line is questionable. Brady is ripe for the nagging injury bug at his age. Add it up...9-7 season!

Ummmmm....well.....missed it by that much! Should have known that I could not count on the Steelers (no disrespect Madame) to do what hopefully the Cowboys will get a chance to do! When Brady does retire, anybody see him getting into politics? I can see that. Trophy wife, tons of money. Could get bored living in that mansion with nothing to do. Belichek will occupy an entire floor with a closet full of hoodies.

Say what you will. Brady or Belichick would not have the fame they now have if it wasn't for the other. Both have been tied to each other since 2000 when both landed with the Patriots. Both hold NFL records that will stand for years to come. Once Brady retires, I can see Belichick doing the same.

Makes perfect sense Hugh. I suppose in the 100 years of the NFL of the NFL just about every team had a nice run but what would qualify as a dynasty? Pats, Cowboys, 49ers, Dolphins come to mind...once Brady and Belicheck are gone who looks like the likely heirs to come?

Roethlisberger looked old, very old. Time for Tomlin to either start planning for a change - either with a new QB or moving to new team. If the Steelers offence had played up to expectations the Pats wouldn't have been on the field as many times as they were, and they probably wouldn't have score 33 points. Maybe only 23.

Well, that didn’t take long. Criminal investigation opening in Pittsburgh in addition to the civil suit.

Told Rap on Sunday I thought the over/under on his time as a Patriot was October 1. That was before this latest news was reported. Hooper

Well that was short and sweet. Game over for Antonio Brown now that he’s been released from America’s Team ?

No, some team will sign him at some point. Probably without a guaranteed contract, I would suspect.
I wouldn’t, if I owned a team. Wouldn’t sign OBJ either. You can’t be a winning franchise with players that distract attention like that. It just doesn’t work out.

Will be interesting to see if the League suspends him and, if not, whether any other team will take a shot with him. Supposedly, these text messages were sent this week. If true, Dude simply hasn’t learned a thing or pushed his luck too far. Either way, don’t know who’ll take a chance.

I wasn't aware AB played for the Dallas Cowboys Mr. Hendry! I can't see any team touching this diva except maybe the Jags. He's a cancer. Plus, He may have weaseled his way out of rape charges in NY but not out of Florida yet!

Now we have text message gate. Bellicheck just walked out of a news conference when asked about the Brown situation. Very telling. I feel bad for Hoop that his team is going through this Antonio Brown drama but they have nobody to blame but themselves. And somewhere John Gruden is laughing his butt off.
NFL is investigating the situation. (insert eye roll here). Dallas vs. KC in the Super Bowl. Book it. Big Ben told everyone what a turd Brown was way back when.
Drew Rosenhous must be freaking out. Millions will be lost.

No need to feel bad for the Patriots. They lose nothing out of this. They knew what they were getting. Not much of a risk for them. They had everything to gain, absolutely nothing to lose.
If pro sports wants to end these types of situations, they need to stop hiring these types of players. Send a message.
Stop the b*llsh*t.

I hope he does get the signing bonus. Not so much so that he gets it, but more so they have to pay... They knew what they were getting when the signed him. Would be a good lesson for all the other GM's...

He should definitely get the signing bonus. Then use it to pay R Kelley's bail and they should both spend time hanging out with both of R Kelley's girlfriends at the same time.
