probably too hard to prove

I don't think it is an act, I really do think the guy is off. We will see how he does. AB likes to freelance in how routes and going to meetings and other stuff seems optional. So we will see. Do they make exceptions for his behavior, then they say the rules only apply to certain guys. Who knows. Gordan is known for freelancing routes and he did ok yesterday. See if Brady likes it after a couple turnovers happen from their behavior.

Cap magic.

The contract for Brown is 1 year with a team option for a second year. They can spread the signing bonus over both years.

They may also need to restructure one or two of their current player contracts. The Cheats had verbally agreed to terms with Brown on Saturday but nothing had been officially signed. That occurs today and they will need to rework any other contracts today.

Patriots added an option year for Antonio Brown in 2020 at $20 million which becomes guaranteed if executed, per source. It was done to help for cap proration purposes this season.

That would explain some of Brown's more outlandish maneuvers in the past week, including an Instagram story criticizing the Raiders for fining him (which later led to a heated confrontation with GM Mike Mayock) and a YouTube clip leaking a recorded (presumably private) conversation with coach Jon Gruden. Brown's acts of self-sabotage worked exactly as intended, drawing the Raiders' ire and eventually freeing him to align with Tom Brady and Bill Belichick in New England. The Patriots offered a first-rounder for Brown earlier this offseason but the Steelers weren't keen to trade him to a conference rival. Turns out, he found his way to Foxboro anyway. The Evil Empire strikes again.

Collusion I think so :eek:

Of course the dumb fuck Raiders took the bait.

New day, new headline involving AB.

He is accused of sexually assaulting and raping his former trainer. A lawsuit was filed in court today in Florida.

What a fucking shit show. I wonder if this jeopardizes the under the table money that Kraft is giving him to sign for $15M a year.

Jeopardizes? This is Bob the sext trafficking king-pin Kraft you are talking about. AB probably just got a 50% raise. I wonder if Bob and AB have shared lists of women where they have nutted on their back to see if there is any cross-over, excluding Tom of course since that is a given.

So, the owner dabbles in sex trafficking, the quarterback tongues his own son, the wide receiver is a rapist and the starting safety is a drug dealer. On the only NFL franchise to ever employ a serial killer.

The New England Patriots, ladies and gentlemen.

By the way, Brown will practice this week and will play on Sunday unless the NFL suspends him. The Patriots sure as hell won’t. They only care about winning.

Hey hey hey now, before you go casting aspersions just remember- there is only like 1 or 2, certainly no more than 5, bad ass players a year that get popped for PED's, and just because they go elsewhere and pretty much suck, that has nothing to do with anything...

Let's cut them some slack!
