NBA free agency was insane with many surprises and lots of drama. The NFL off season has been kind of like that because of one man, Antonio Brown. I have lost all respect for him after hearing what has been going on. From what I've heard, he was a great guy with a great personality when he was with the Steelers. I respected his game and always thought he was a great player. Even though he was the reason for some Steeler victories against my Packers. However, after everything that has happened, I will refuse to watch him.
He has signed with Tom Brady and the big bad Patriots. They won 33-3 against the Steelers without him so just imagine what they'll be able to do with him. Now, I wouldn't mind this if I didn't have the context. Sure I hate the Patriots, but I could respect someone to go try and win a championship. However, he planned this from the beginning. That's why he acted like a complete idiot with the Raiders. He posted a phone conversation with Jon Gruden, he celebrated on social media when he was released, and yelled to the GM. He did all of this just so the Patriots didn't have to trade away a player to get him. He wanted to get released so that the Patriots could just sign him. The is the most disgusting and embarrassing thing I have ever seen in this sport. He acted like a complete idiot with the Raiders, lost a bunch of money, insulted the Raider's organization, just to join the Patriots.
This is the first time I haven't blamed the Patriots for this though. This was all on Antonio Brown and him acting horribly. It is an embarrassment and I wish that they could just make it so he doesn't play football anymore. I get notifications from ESPN almost every day about him and honestly it's just making me sick. I really hope that the Chiefs can beat the Patriots in the championship this year. Antonio Brown is just a social media, whiny millionaire. I sincerely hope this doesn't damper the NFL season overall though because it's looking like it could be very good (especially for my Packers ha ha).
Yes, I am mad at Antonio for how childish he acted. I truly do hope though that he can figure things out and fix this. He's a great player, and if he can just fix his social media habits and how he handles things, I could respect him. I truly hope Bill Bellichik can straighten him out and he can be a great player again. I wish him and the Patriots nothing but the best (woo boy that was hard to say). Thank you for reading this little rant.
