    I'm wondering if someone hacked into his Twitter account. It just seems so odd.

    On second thought, I think maybe someone tried to, or did, take advantage of him and it pissed him off. I dunno. What do you think about it?

    Does it really matter, BA is out and AB is still the best. .....See what I did?

    Seems like these high level pro athletes run on “disrespect” as motivation. If there isn’t something obvious, they will manufacture something. Now, thanks to social media, we get to see that process. Oh joy. Happy Day.

    WOW ! I knew I didn't like Arians offenses, because they devalued the run game and for that reason, had a hard time running a 4 minute offense to close out games....but as a talent evaluator that shows some lousy insight. He wanted to cut a future Hall of Fame WR????

    Maybe he wanted the roster spot for another TE/H-back? What a clown.

    These observations from Labriola in the linked article regarding AB and BA - apparently Labriola is as much a fan of Arians as I am

    Maybe what spurred this is how Arians has been heard on the local airwaves recently to help talk shows fill the air during a time of the year when there is no local NBA franchise, when the hockey team is out of the playoffs, and when the baseball team is slumping. Since the national networks always are eager to promote their broadcast crews, and few love the sound of their own voice as much as Arians, it was a natural to dial him up and get him on the air.

    Full disclosure: I have no idea what Arians said or might have said in these appearances, because I have no interest in listening to what always devolves into self-promotion or self-congratulation....


    So this fall, if you happen to be listening to Arians on a talk show or as an analyst during a CBS telecast, just keep in mind that the same guy who’s talking to you in that moment is the same one who wanted to cut Antonio Brown.

    I’ve been following him and yes, he has. He will get into some sort of social media distraction at some point...he’s all over it and at times, he’s a little bit out there...

    This is a bit of revisionist history. AB put up #'s in preseason, but many were against back-ups. He looked great in practice. You know who looks dominant in every single practice and training camp he has ever been in? Justin Hunter.

    This is not really an attempt to defend BA. He is very clearly in love with himself and has decided he is a football genius - despite evidence to the contrary. However, while cutting AB would have been a mistake -- sending him to the practice squad was not the massive idiocy it seems in hindsight.

    However, I am really really glad, someone else with some damn sense won the day. I'm going to guess Richard Mann?

    Arians did release future HOF'er John Kuhn so all of this should be no surprise.

    Ben McAdoo would have chosen Mason Rudolph before Baker Mayfield:

    That was a common thought process during some periods of the evaluation process.

    Bob McAdoo looks like guy who uses a BOGO coupon at the bowling alley, to get two games for himself.

    Yup and didn't he choose Geno Smith over Eli Manning to start a game? I cant believe anybody gave him a job as an NFL analyst.
