The Pittsburgher Thread: The Bush Era Begins

[TimmyD]

So, this looks like it'll be a fun story

He is claiming he will never play football again if he isn’t allowed to wear his old helmet lmao

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

That dude is clearly mentally ill and needs medication or treatment. It's barely even funny. Well it's kinda funny

 

[Iggy Smalls]

AB is trying his best to make a case for a DSM-6

 

[JakeNBake59]

now that we dont have to suffer the AB drama... its somewhat refreshing to watch on

Clearly this is all Ben's fault!

He just is angling to renegotiate his contract to get more money.

I thought he was all about tearing up the league in black and silver? I guess he got cold feet.

 

[USMC607]

This guy is really threatening to retire because the league said his model of Schutt is over 10 yrs old, therefore not within regulations. Yeesh...

But I mean he has gotten his way anytime he has thrown a fit up to this point so it's not surprising he thinks this is his best option.

As far as Oakland goes, AB got the upper hand because they just dropped 30 mil guaranteed on him.

But the league is already catching heat for CTE. If they allow him to wear that helmet that would just set them up for even more lawsuits by knowingly let a player play with equipment that doesnt pass regs.

 

[cookthebooks]

there is genuinely something wrong with ab. i hope his money gets put in a trust to protect himself from himself. its honestly pretty sad to think about his evolution

 

[Mr Jiggyfly]

Just saw Silver’s 15 Tweets on the Brown saga...

Goes beyond the feet and helmet issue...

As I said, dude is completely fried.

Wonder how long this kind of shit has to go on before the people on here and in the media who blamed Roth see reality.

[Pens1566]

I think it might be a bit too late to upgrade his helmet ...

 

[Empoleon8771]

AB is a legitimate nutcase, dear lord. It's hilarious to watch someone else deal with that problem, but I do think there were some people who thought that AB would chill after leaving the Steelers.

Most of the national media took AB's side because they conned themselves into thinking it was all Ben's fault.

And to all the poeple who dare say we lose 2 Super star in AB and Leveon, one didn't play all year and the other seem like he wont play this year or at least be a total distraction all year. Can't say it enough, we should easily be a better team this year with both gone

 

[tread102]

Man the ab trade is looking better
And better

 

[JTG]

Shot in the dark...does anyone have a stream to this game?

 

[JTG]

AB has some mental issues. He is defiant just to be defiant at this point.

STEELERS

 

[USMC607]

I know he is just a rookie, but

Justin Layne got ate up that whole drive.

 

[Al Smith]

Justin Layne got ate up that whole drive.

Artie Burns is at the Mendoza Line of CB tackling. It's too early to see if Layne is above that line, but yeah, tackling was an issue.

 

[Mario_is_BACK!!]

So... we’re just going to gloss over the really racist thing @NEPA said huh?

Okay!

Anyway it astounds me that AB was stupid enough to walk in to a cryo chamber without protection. They give those sandals to you so he ignored it. I should be shocked but then the helmet thing and yeah...

 

[JTG]

Would have been nice to see Dobbs assert himself there. Washington made a nice grab. That's promising at least.

The Steelers lost their best offensive and defensive player in the past two years, plus just lost probably their best positional coach in Munchak.

Devin Bush is going to be a perennial all Pro. Said it before the draft, after, and will keep saying it.
