Shocker 🤔
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. 👎
He is legitimately mentally ill or has CTE, it's still bizarre how he just completely came undone out of nowhere
I always wondered if that Vontez Burfict hit was behind him coming undone
You may very well be right.
It's always that "one" hit which is the straw that breaks the camel's back.
(if possible, I'll try to get in one more cliché in this thread - LOL)

Yea, even though I've got no love at all for Antonio Brown, that's tough to watch.
He could have been paralyzed from a vicious hit like that.
a quick Google search says that he made $80 million from NFL contracts when he played
And that's a lot less than some other idiots have made and went bankrupt.
What's odd is AB just literally refused to pay people for personal services too so lawsuits won't help them get paid now
According to many reports, nearly one-third of lottery winners eventually go bankrupt within three to five years, which is more likely than the average American, according to the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.
I accept the challenge NOT to go bankrupt & I'm quite confident I would succeed. My card budget would increase, I just need a chance.
Reminds me of the uprise & downfall of Steve Martin in The Jerk...funny movie!

Can you imagine if you somehow were able to inject yourself into Antonio Brown's head; keep your own mind separate from his mind; have the ability to observe and study the functioning (past and current) of Antonio Browns' mind; and compare how his mind functioned prior to him playing football and how it functions now.
I suspect that his erratic behavior has been made worse by the number of jarring hits he has suffered while playing the game.
That would be very interesting.
You're exactly right about lottery winners. Many of them have stated that they wished they had never hit it. Marital problems develop, family and friends get estranged, all sorts of other calamities seem to happen. Including going dead broke and in debt, worse off financially than they were before they received that sudden whirlwind of money.
80m - Yikes!
I'd say he'd better start hitting the autograph circuit and hope his signature sells. 😆
