He didn't forfeit $1M. He forfeited the possibility of earning an additional $1M in bonuses.

And for some reason, Brady is and has been sympathetic to the guy. He actually lobbied the Bucs to take him in after his last screw up.

^^ He's a Randy Moss type receiver...very valuable to Brady.

AB took a vicious hit to the head when he was a Steeler. He may not be all there in the head.

I just read an article that said the coach ordered him onto the field, but AB said "No", since he has a bad ankle. Coach said to get out there anyway. AB said no again. Coach then told AB he's cut. That's when AB went a little crazy. Maybe the coach was being reckless with his player's health, and that's just how AB behaves.

If Bruce is that stupid, AB won't lose a cent. Count on it: Coaches are now removed from medical decisions, thank god.

I played HS football in the days of smelling salts and how many fingers: F that.

I still think AB may need a check up from the neck up. I hope he gets to a better place.

I heard it was based on the coach not letting AB back onto the field and AB needed more catches/yards to get his incentives.

That's the opposite of what I read. Who knows which of us is right?

I saw the medical discussion as well Charlie, and Bruce A. did say today he was cleared to play by the medical staff.

In the end, no matter what it was he was a professional and acted like a 5yo throwing a temper tantrum.

His behavior is simply not tolerable in any team sport...any sport for that matter.

He needs help.

I liked the answer that Mike Piera (the online official) gave when asked about the Bucs getting penalized for him being on the field.

He said "No penalty..play hadn't started...just let him get out of here"

AB has a very pronounced history. I believe that is isn't "quite right in the head", based upon all of his foolishness. I was disappointed when the Bucs picked him up. I was hoping he was done.

I don't follow a team as much as I used to; I find players and story arcs that appeal to me and track that.

Josh Allen and the Bills are so enjoyable to watch.

Note to Josh: learn how to slide.

Good luck in the play-offs!

Anybody know what happened to the line judge that left the Packers (I think) game? He doubled over, pointed to his chest, was walked over to the players' medical tent then an ambulance came and took him away.

I feel like AB is a Mike Tyson situation.

Gobs of talent but needs a strong role model.

Brady didn't just say sign the guy.

Brady had him living with him and seemed to be providing that Cus D'Amato guidance that kept Mike in check.

Once Cus was gone a combo of the wrong people stepping in and Mikes own demons turned it into a ****show.

Once AB was back out on his own and had less Brady influence he spiraled again.

Shame really.

My Steelers might be in the playoffs! Just need Chargers not to tie the Raiders! Happy but know it's not going to mean much.
