Antonio Brown Files for Bankruptcy Following Disgraced NFL Exit | The Dan Le Batard Show

People keep trying to blame this on that hit from Burfeit. He’s ALWAYS been like this, even in college.

[@GFD618]

That’s definitely false. I’m from Pittsburgh and followed AB his entire career as a fan. AB’s slogan used to be Chest Up, Eyes Up, Prayed Up and his IG stories were all about his son Otto and he seemed like a great dad! He was soft spoken and spent all his time grinding. Then in the last year or two of his Steelers tenure he started to shift towards more of what he is today.

[@Ledpooplin55]

No he wasn't. And the NFL knew Burfict was trying to hurt players the whole time he was in the NFL and just gave him slaps on the wrist. Antonio Brown is not the only person why was affected by the NFL letting someone basically committing crimes on the field with people playing a game.

[@TempeSoldier123]

@@GFD618 why is it that Ryan Clark and his other TEAMMATES WHO SAW HIM EVERYDAY say he’s always been like that, was good and hiding it from the media, and told the Steelers that if they paid him the money he wanted that he would be a nightmare to deal with.

Please, do not associate Antonio Brown's horrible behavior or poor financial decisions with CTE (at least not now). AB is and has always been a petulant child slave to his emotions. He grew up that way, unchecked and unfettered by any kind of stable household or parental figure. He somehow managed to be noticed and then had his hand held throughout his college career to just be eligible. His move to the NFL only served to exacerbate his condition, which only got worse because he now had piles of money with zero guidance. No, AB is a product of his nurture (or lack thereof) and his nature. He has been neglected, then coddled, then tolerated, and now will be neglected again and sadly forgotten.

Antonio Brown has to be the best NFL version of Alan Iverson. Not because he literally pissed away 80m. But because he epitomizes that whole ego driven mentality. Where millionaires are trying to live like billionaires. You see, unless you're worth at least 100m or you have a business that can allow you to justify it, private planes should not be in your worldview. I mean, seriously , how God damn important does posturing mean to you to justify spending 50k on a plane trip. Now, if you wanted to get together with millionaire friends and buy a jet or jet and set up a charter service, then that's an investment. Plus, you could justifiably write off your travel as a business expense. But unfortunately AB lived in AB world and in that world you go BROKE 😂❤

I find it hard to believe you’re a therapist and would make a comment like this. Are you familiar with Jovan Belcher? The man was literally telling people he isn’t right and felt like he didn’t have control over his emotions. AB shouldn’t have to kill himself for you to broaden your purview. There are plenty of DV perpetrators who don’t have histories of head trauma, so in that regard I get it. But to say there’s no correlation between mental health and DV, particularly as the therapist you claim to be, seems like much more of a personal position as opposed to a professional one. Revisit that Burfict hit. Many of us are surprised AB is still alive. There’s definitely a personality component to all of this, and AB can’t be absolved of that. But to think CTE isn’t a key contributor to his downfall, yes DV included, is unfair to say the least.

There’s only two types of personal bankruptcies, chapter 7 and chapter 13. With chapter 13, the person filing bankruptcy negotiates a repayment plan with all of their creditors, and with chapter 7, all of their assets are liquidated to pay back their creditors. Rumor has it AB only has $50,000 in assets, so chapter 7 will leave him with nothing, and I can’t see how chapter 13 will work since AB doesn’t have any consistent income to make payments with.

They have to start being accurate when they report on how much these athletes made during their careers. After taxes, paying agents, & etc, he didn’t bring home close to $88 million dollars.

It’s ok to have compassion

[@eddisonfoncette9103]

It was inevitable, he ran faster towards bankruptcy than he ever did to endzone. Instead facing the Ravens, Bengals & Browns he facing Bankruptcy and eventually Jail. Go Hawks

[@sstewart44]

People like Brady tried to help him out and he took a dump on him and a few others that helped him

Most people who watch football could understand how players may experience serious head trauma from years of collisions that might contribute to poor mental health. However, it's always amazing how in the last 10 years, any player that acts in a poor manner, MUST have CTE. Plenty of ex football players have been able to live good, respectful, healthy lives post career and don't make stupid choices. Antonio Brown has the disease of ME and constantly seems attention and money. No amount of either would ever be enough for a person like him

[@devonclarke3857]

I get what Dan is saying by mentioning "the lifestyle he had is gone". What he meant is that no one is gonna trust him enough to employ so he can have a steady income. Back when he had the money he wasn't paying people. And honestly I have zero sympathy for him.

Run Ricky Run had a condition b4 his NFL career called social anxiety disorder. He dealt with it his whole NFL career. There is 88 mil reasons why no one will feel bad for AB's bankruptcy, especially his victims he hurt. It wasn't the hit, he just never stopped being a wanna be thug, Locker Room incidents happened before the hit.

[@Donald-h2z]

Dan imagine this: Antonio Brown is white. Would you still feel bad? Would you still have compassion for him?

[@mmou3878]

What's your point? Dan is Cuban.

[@Donald-h2z]

@@mmou3878 he hates white people is my point.

[@toxsun]

I'll answer it: No, he wouldn't.

[@freddiecarr7602]

He bought an In and Out in Oakland!!! It was boarded up but he said no problem---- he has a generator and some hamburger meat from costco------go Tony

[@ericarchuleta9144]

Antonio Brown needs to file for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid and just admit that he has mental health issues I feel

[@micahhayes8770]

Yo Dan, do your research. This is a play(chess move)by AB. He said on Vlad TV and other pods that he was going to file BK to eliminate the debt that he incurred. He still has a lot of $$.

[@SitBackandChill12]

I hate when ppl say "I'm not trying to give an excuse" but then immediately give an excuse...So every bad thing AB did was because of football?? Shutup..

[@SteveGorsuch]

What does he have against Brady? Brady got him a job in the NFL twice when nobody else would give him a chance. Jerk.

[@georgeyoung1810]

I no longer watch the NFL and CTE is part of the reason. I felt like I was watching people destroy their futures for my entertainment

[@mikethomas860]

Broke. Broke. I am sorry to hear that . The guy has kids. No one in the NFL is going to give him a Coaching job.

[@jessArcade]

I don't think there's any way to bring mental illness into this and not make him a victim. If you're saying that if not for mental illness, either genetic or caused by physical trauma, that he wouldn't have assaulted those women or wrecked his finances, then you make him a victim.

[@jayclue8581]

The only reason he had $81M to lose, was because of football. Without football, AB would be exactly where he now finds himself. Football may of ruined his luxurious lifestyle, but it was also the only reason he had a luxurious lifestyle to lose. The ironing is delicious.

[@briandjonesesq]

Dan and AB have the same moustache

[@jakeMontejo3272]

There’s different types of bankruptcies. Is this his business or a personal bankruptcy? Tyson did comeback, and he went to jail, but Iron Mike was loved, regardless. It’s apples and bowling balls, but AB doesn’t seem to have the likability factor to make the same kind of comeback. You never know, he could change in his later years.
