My guess is he has borderline personality disorder. Read about it. He exhibits almost all of the symptomatology to the hilt. He needs to be diagnosed and prescribed the appropriate medication and he would be living in a different world as a different person. It's actually shocking to me no one has made that happen by now. What are these NFL teams doing? How dumb are they? Sometimes specific symptoms might be managed with medications; however, there are no medications to specifically treat Borderline Personality Disorders. Like all personality disorders, it is a fairly fixed framework within which people view themselves, others, and the world around them that is rooted more in developmental factors than structural or genetic factors (such as Bipolar Disorder). I have no idea what is at the core of Antonio Brown's behavior and, without indepth interviewing and testing, nobody does. If his issues are primarily in the personality disorder arena, my guess would be it is squarely in the Cluster B range and centering around pathological narcissism with some histrionic borderline, and antisocial traits (and, just another guess, probably some related traits involving paranoia and psychopathy). Unfortunately, there are no medications to fix that. Structural / chemical issues are another story... Quote

Well, I wasn't present during their interactions so I don't have the necessary information to condemn or absolve either one regarding responsibility for what happened.

That may be. That wasn't my point. I was responding to your post in which you indicated that you believe Arians' behavior before and during the game was f***** up, with no mention of Brown's behavior. My point was that I wasn't there so I have no idea if Arians' behavior was in the right, in the wrong, or somewhere in between. The same with Brown. In other words, I don't have ALL of the information at this time to know. Edited January 8, 2022 by billsfan1959 Quote
Bob in STL Posted January 8, 2022 Posted January 8, 2022 I can’t believe it’s even up for debate. Arians kicked AB off the sideline because of his behavior. He wanted more targets to get a cash bonus. Any coach worth a damm would have done the same. The story of how much of distraction he has become is out there. Look at his behavior before the game, during the game, after the game - the guy is crazy. Any team that signs him is asking for trouble. 1 Quote

aristocrat Posted January 8, 2022 Posted January 8, 2022 I love the idea that brown forgot it was a 17 game season and threw a tantrum. Would be hilarious 3 Quote

It is not really a discussion point. Ha Ha. It appears you haven’t been around too many coaches. In this case a professional coach benches a professional player that earns and deserves their respect, otherwise they get told to “get the F out”. Especially when they are acting selfish at halftime of an important game, and right after you talked to him in the locker room. No coach is going to take that crap on the sideline. The coach did not publicly embarrass him, AB did that all by himself. Besides, AB is not embarrassed by it, he would have to be thinking clearly for that to happen. Clearly he isn’t.

How did Arians publicly embarrass him during the game? By telling him to get out? The public didn’t know that detail until after the fact. What Ariana did was confined to the sideline and not made for public consumption. Quote
CNYfan Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 A Brown was on a short leash. He had already had his third strike. AB thought he could get away with anything. Good on Bruce. 1 Quote

It is not really a discussion point. Said player embarrassed the team with his vaccination FELONY and other things. Along with his demands to be paid the bonus guarantees etc. think Arians didn’t know he snuck some skank into the room-bet he did! AB is an AH so quit defending any of his actions. Quote

The absolute best thing that could come from all of this would be if AB blew the lid off about the "supplements" TBs "trainer" has been providing all these years Quote

This indiscretion was pretty bad when you consider it another Covid violation. Athletes can get beautiful women. That is not hard to do. He demonstrates a complete lack of self control and childlike selfish behavior. Edited January 9, 2022 by Bob in STL 2 Quote
Billsatlastin2018 Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 All I’m glad about, is that this insane buffoon has now removed the Bills as the punchline response of which team had someone quit on them at 1/2 time? 1 1 Quote
