Patriots/NFL Week 2: At Miami, Pats trade Demaryius Thomas to Jets

[McGarnagle]

Did he beat her? Goodell gives a pass on that

Let's consult the Roger Goodell suspension scorecard

Being "generally aware" of balls being deflated: 4 games
Breaking your 3 year old son's arm: 0 games

I don't know where this will get slotted in

This has been brewing for at least a few days. It's not something cooked up to finally take down the Patriots lmao.

Leaked Direct Messages Suggest Antonio Brown Is Being Extorted With Fake Sexual Assault Claim

Both sides supposedly have proof against the other

Bigger questions should be does Kraft care about who puts on a Patriots jersey or what it represents? The Brand? or is it just about making the most money he can while Brady can still stand up before it all crashes and burns?

Be nice for him and BB just admit it,

 

[smithformeragent]

Wonderful

 

[CDJ]

It's just an extortion attempt now that he's been in the news and at the top of his celebrity. It'll get dismissed. I just hope Goodell doesn't try to suspend him.

He didn’t do anything silly like a rip a joint, he’ll be fine

With the NFL at least

 

[Johnnyduke]

What a disaster, even if he's innocent

This couldn't have come out before signing him???

 

[Johnnyduke]

Would love to be in a room with Belichick right now. His next press conference will be gold.

 

[Smitty93]

Will have to wait until all of the facts are out (and they probably won't ever be), but the timing's weird. Sounds like it allegedly happened spring 2018, so it's been over a year. Why come out now? Why not press criminal charges? Obvious answer is that she wants money, but that doesn't necessarily mean she's lying.

Unfortunately people immediately jump to conclusions and either think the guy is guilty or the woman is lying purely based on the initial headlines.

2017 and allegation of 2018

 

[Johnnyduke]

Oh I won't jump to anything here. I will let others dissect the reports. But this is obviously the last thing they needed to deal with.

No it won’t.

They will ask and he will say they are on to Miami

Same boring tell nothing presser as always

Nah, it won't be, unless you enjoy hearing him say some variation of "I'm focused on the Dolphins" over and over.

 

[Bruinaura]

I'm just waiting to see what the Bruins do while the smoke clears from baseball and football land in New England

 

[Johnnyduke]

The silence and stares will be great, bring out all the big gun reporters

And if Hill got cut and the pats picked him up fans would be saying “well he got cleared on that”...or any other fanbase for that matter.

 

[Boston Bandit]

Federal lawsuit accuses new Patriot Antonio Brown of rape

Tyreek Hill was on tape threatening his fiancée and there was credible proof that he broke his son’s arm.

I don’t like AB but there is something not right here

Absolutely no chance. I would not support Tyreek Hill. I don't like Antonio Brown either but a he said she said sexual relationship between two adults is a lot different than a kid ending up with a broken arm but the mom not wanting Hill to lose his job because then she misses out on his salary.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Tyreek Hill should not be in the league

 

[Boeser Fan]

Bigger questions should be does Kraft care about who puts on a Patriots jersey or what it represents? The Brand? or is it just about making the most money he can while Brady can still stand up before it all crashes and burns?

Be nice for him and BB just admit it,

Why would it crash and burn when Brady retires? They will still play in the AFC East and the Belichick's are deeply rooted in the organization.

 

[JRull86]

Look, if these allegations are true, he deserves to be cut, banned from the league, and thrown in jail.

However, there's something super fishy about all of this. Civil court, but not criminal? Supposedly tried to get AB to invest in a business, but didn't tell him there were tax liens and loans on the business. Entered into a sexual relationship which he admits to.

I don't want to make light of the topic, because again if it's at all true, this guy is a total piece of garbage, but something just feels off to this.

Reeks of a money grab and nothing more.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Very well could be but I also just heard Tom Curran talk about some emails that aren't a good look for Brown? He didn't go into great detail on what he wrote to the woman.

 

[CDJ]

Alright so I may have to spin zone my spin zone

 

[JRull86]

Eh I read them. It shows that they definitely had some sort of sexual relationship, and he essentially accuses her of trying to extort him.

I don't know the source of them though, so who knows if they are legitimate.

Also, I like Tom Curran, but he's been 100% anti Antonio Brown on the Patriots for weeks. He's biased on the issue IMO.

I think Hill is on a different level.

Pretty much this.

The civil filing also struck me as odd.
