It’s rather sad to watch this guy keep falling apart...
That guy in a Steelers uniform was so damn special...real fun to watch.
He has been falling apart for a long time. A lot was kept quiet for years because he was so productive - Ryan Clark saying Troy wanted to take AB out in practice back in 2012 for cursing out LeBeau only came out this past September

Teams would tolerate Hannibal Lecter or Charles Manson on their teams and enable their behavior if they were All-Pro and avoided getting suspended
Obviously, he didn't actually write it, but here's the latest Instagram post AB has signed off on...
First and foremost, I’d like to apologize to my family, friends and anyone who I offended. I never once meant to make anyone feel like I wasn’t thankful and appreciative of the opportunity that I was afforded to play the game I love. I’ve worked hard over the years to earn a chance to compete in the greatest game on earth. Over the years I was met with challenges and I can honestly say I didn’t handle those challenges in the manner that I should have. Over the past few weeks I’ve had the opportunity to think about everything that’s transpired and I am deeply sorry to all who I’ve offended. While my behavior was inexcusable, sometimes when people are coming at you with false information and allegations, we handle ourselves in ways that we sometimes regret. I do take full responsibility for my actions and I’m working everyday to repair what I broke. I do know that if I’m ever given the opportunity to play the game that I love, I’m going to work extremely hard to show the world how much I appreciate another chance. To the organizations that I offended, I offer my sincere apology to you and my hope is that you forgive me and help me move on from this minor setback. I look forward to competing and helping a team reach their goals.

I don't know if there has ever been anyone, in the history of sports, where the difference has been so obvious between when they are saying something themselves and when they are repeating something their publicist wrote for them.
Maybe Mike Tyson would come close if they'd had Twitter and Instagram in the early '90s. But these days I don't think Mike Tyson even gives a fuck enough to have a publicist apologize for anything.
See you Space Cowboy ...
I kinda like how real life AB makes Ricky Jarrett from Ballers seem reasonable.
Being unemployed when you have major debt service is a pain

Will wait and see how long the response to that is to stay in apology mode since he is not getting back this season and will have months to brood on that
‘I Was Done With That Loser Long Time Ago,’ Antonio Brown Rips Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger, Calls NFL Racist
https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2019...ls-nfl-racist/
Not to mention A.B had zero TD's in Pittsburgh from any quarterback not named Ben Roethlisberger.
"You've heard people brag about 'being in the zone'. They don't know what the Hell being in the zone is about. I played in the NFL for 15 years and I was only in the zone that one time." - "Mean" Joe Greene on the 1974 playoff victory over Oakland
Just days ago (and after his apology) it was announced the Cheats wouldn't re-sign AB. Hmm.
"That was the fam, not the racist NFL". Okay... What does that mean?? He was apologizing to his family, not the NFL? Somebody in his family tweeted the message and he didn't mean to call the NFL racist? Something else?
Dude's speaking English, yet I still feel like I need an interpreter.

Maybe AB believes the “racist NFL” could not possibly be offended by anything he has done so they were not covered by the “first and foremost” apology to everyone last week?
Even after any suspensions/time on the exempt list are done, any team bringing AB on board has to wonder how long until the inevitable next blow up.
Next week he will issue an apology and then tell everyone how Tom Brady was the most professional and most prepared QB he’s ever played with, begging the Patriots to add him to their playoff roster...lol
He’s become quite pathetic. I’m embarrassed for him...so much more respect for Tomlin, Ben, the team and the front office for how they dealt with this guy for so long...mad respek.
Roger continues to torment AB after the latest tweets
Commissioner Roger Goodell made it clear on Wednesday that a decision isn’t imminent.
“They [have] still not completed the investigation,” Goodell told reporters at the December ownership meeting. “They did, our investigators did [meet with Brown], I did not meet with Antonio. But they have more work to do. They’re following up on that. And I’ll get an update when they have more information.”

Can't A.Brown, Communist Kaperdick, and Hillary ( I have no emails and I didn't kill those in Bengazi) just go in the woods and get F..Kin lost !!?? Damn....GO AWAY !!
I'm loving watching AB shit the rest of his career down the sewer. I hope that shit bag never plays another down in the NFL.
AB is a real piece of work and the more this kind of stuff comes up the more I can't believe we kept him as a contributing member of the team for as long as we did. When Troy is upset with a fellow teammate that speaks VOLUMES. It also explains to me why we never went that far into the playoffs if this guy was such a cancer to the team.
At this point the only way AB can get even crazier is if he tweeted that he was allergic to electricity
