Have fun Raiders!

Antonio Brown got what he wanted, and the Raiders should have known what they were getting.

Chase Williams of WPXI, the NBC affiliate in Pittsburgh, has reported that Brown already has gone “radio silent” on the Raiders, as he obtains treatment away from the team on feet that were frostbitten last month in a cryotherapy chamber.

Here’s the specific content of the tweet from Williams: “10 practices into training camp and Antonio Brown has already gone ‘radio silent’ with the Raiders. They have zero clue where he is or what the progress of the foot injury is.”

It’s impossible to know whether this report is accurate, in part because no one connected to the team is publicly saying anything about Brown’s injury. It had seemed that the Raiders were mum in order to avoid making Brown look bad or foolish for freezing his feet; maybe the Raiders are saying nothing because there’s nothing to say, and because they just don’t know what’s going on.

If the report is accurate, folks in Pittsburgh will shed no tears over this development, given the manner in which Brown behaved at the end of his nine-year run with the team. Folks in Oakland will be dismayed by the situation, but they shouldn’t be.

Brown wasn’t punished but rewarded for quitting on his team in Week 17. There’s no reason to think that he learned any lesson from his final days with the Steelers because, at the end of the day, he won.

Do they make helmets big enough for Brown's head?

Hard Knocks has chosen wisely...

Schefter must have been reading from the same discussion board that I read (I posted the same stuff in this thread two days ago)

the source that originally posted it isn't a proven source ... but we'll see soon enough

Another report is now saying that AB has had a 2 hour arbitration phone call about the helmet issue and that a decision could come early next week.

Other reports are saying that the style of helmet AB is wearing isn't banned, it is just that his current helmet is more than 10 years old.

So Antonio Brown is dealing with frost bite on his feet. Now there's drama over his helmet. We always knew this dude was a diva. But he seems to be turning into a knucklehead lately.

AB is a real jack off. The Steelers must be elated to be done with him.
