Kabong - The societal elite first century Jew was out for the betterment of their own kind. Based upon their status in society today, they were highly successful. Not unlike Brady, Jews can always be found at the top of the stack in anything and everything. There is no such thing as an average Jew, they are all exceptional. This is a football forum though, not a space to teach world history.

Good for you, blu. I was top goal scorer in the league a handful of times while playing youth soccer. Probably could have punched my ticket, but high school football was way cooler, so I chose the tackle football route.
Even if your gibberish were unconditionally and categorically true, the choice of analogy is absurd. A normal person would say Brady always ends up on top bc he is exceptional. Only a troll or moron decides gratuitously to analogize Brady with an entire ethnic group…thanks for putting an unrealistic sex scene in the movie that was totally unnecessary given the plot and poorly acted to boot. Changing the channel now. :roll:

AB continues the craziness. The police pulled him over because he was AB, not because he was going 100mph. Still a clown.

AB: "I miss the 'burgh man. Hopefully, I can come back and get it going"

For all the shit that he stirred, if he legitimately took steps toward fixing his life I'd love to have him back. Obviously the contract would have to be beneficial to the organization, but if somehow our organization stepped up and helped him rehabilitate it would only stand to expand our already good image.

Let's be honest, not one person on this board didn't love watching Ben and AB play together. I'd love to see the redemption arc and see them finish what they started.

Maybe I'm being too optimistic here, but I love a good redemption story.

While that might sound all well and good, I'm not sure how the locker room would feel about that. I doubt his teammates want him back.

One of the greatest I’ve ever seen. Same as above; if he legit took steps to turn it around I’d sign him to a one year deal and see if he and Ben can ball out.

Ben’s career is coming to an end. We need talent and we need to make a damn run.

Ummm, yeah. Guy can't even apologize or try to mend fences without taking digs at Ben and JuJu. There's no way he's coming back to PIT, other than for camp to make Hard Knocks interesting :D

I have a gut feeling we'll give him another chance. It's Ben he needs to hash things out with. But again, I'm all about redemption stories.

If those two can come face to face and have a level headed conversation, then I think there's a glimmer of hope things can be salvaged.

The reality is people hit rock bottom. People go through shit. I'd like to give AB the benefit of the doubt that he's seen the abyss and is trying to pull himself out of it.

Brown is not going to come back to the Steelers. Taking him back would be the biggest mistake we could make. He is damaged beyond repair.

Yeah. He's not going to be a steeler again. Regardless of what he says. He'd have to suck tomlins dick on instagram for that to happen.

The only thing REMOTELY close to what happened with AB is Plex and maybe Mike Vick

Plex shot himself in the leg and had some minor beef with the Steelers, but it was typical stuff. He was welcomed back
Mike Vick's has a story unto himself and after some significant time and healing was back in football. I was surprised the Steelers signed him for sure.

But what AB did there's zero precedent. I bet Tomlin would tell ARII: if you bring him back, I'm out

Well, I'll be damned if you didn't just make a strong case to sign AB!

I'm not a Tomlin fan by any stretch, but I wouldn't wish trying to manage AB on my enemies. That's why his agent quit. Didn't need that nonsense from a business standpoint.

I kind of agree with this post. But there has to be some sort of expert that signs off on AB. I think it might be a unicorn though.

Someone to say we think it was the hit from Burfict that triggered all this or this supplement or lack of prozac or thyroid issue or something.

Then someone in his life that could honestly pronounce him back to his old self, probably another unicorn. At one point he was happy. At some point he became angry most of the time.

And of course he’d have to do some serious apologizing.

In the scheme of things he has not done anything truly appalling. He has done some truly stupid things. He has been reverse Forrest Gump for the last 30 months. If he was a friend in my life and then did what he did I’d forgive and forget, but want an explanation on why he went off the rails.

Yet the assembled asshats of this esteemed website seemingly cant get enough of Antonio Brown stories.
