NFLPA provides all kinds of assistance services for players (I've heard specifically of a service to call a sober ride anytime, anywhere, free of charge, no questions asked.)

The issue is that no one uses them because of the stigma or they're worried about word getting back to their coach.

To paraphrase AB, he's an all-pro, no one's gonna do anything.

On Dan Patrick Show, I've heard multiple times it discussed about he how AB took a really bad hit a couple years ago and since then he's been a bit crazy. Obviously this in itself doesn't excuse his actions of alleged rape that happen before that but its quite possible that he has advanced CTE from all the hits hes taken and is legit bat s hit crazy and that why he acts out so stupidly towards these victims and the raiders,etc

So pretty much everyone but the fans lost in this situation?

AB gets cut, but still makes $15 million this year
The Raiders got screwed
We all got to laugh at the Raiders
The Patriots got ensnared and lost $15 million
We all got to laugh at the Patriots and their fans
The victim still gets screwed over because "athletes"
 
Re: NFL 2019-20: We'll Just Talk About Our Fantasy Teams Again....

There's a clause in his contract that may give the Patriots the ability to do what he did to so many, and not pay him. Unsure if it would count towards the cap or not (I don't much care about that).

I find it amusing that BB was super curt at his 11:00 interview, then had AB practice, then cut him.

He doesn’t get $15mil, he gets $9mil and they can try to get that back for release with cause
 
Re: NFL 2019-20: We'll Just Talk About Our Fantasy Teams Again....

The first installment of Antonio Brown’s $9M signing bonus must be paid by Monday.

If the Patriots haven’t already coughed up the $5M they agreed to give Brown when they officially signed him on September 9, news that broke Thursday night of Brown sending threatening text messages this week to a woman should give them pause about cutting that check.

If the Patriots have paid it, it will likely take some wrangling to get it back.

Re: NFL 2019-20: We'll Just Talk About Our Fantasy Teams Again....

Since he has free time now, and appears uniquely qualified, I look forward to AB's run for political office.

Maybe you can help. I'm working on my list of sports allegiances, and I'm trying to find a CFL team to cheer for. Bear in mind, I root for the Detroit Lions, so that should be your guide... I see Toronto is in the cellar this year...

If you're going by likelihood to win anything, the Detroit Lions could still be your CFL team too.

So is BC. Who are, conveniently, also named the Lions.
