I mean it really does seem like there might be a steep cost to the players for playing this sport and I know I'm making an assumption, but if he has significant CTE, does that change anything in terms of your opinion? I'm not excusing his behavior at all and many of his actions likely impacted the lives of people negatively forever, it's awful. Just if he's suffering from dementia, which I'm not saying he is, just that it's possible, and he got that dementia by playing a sport that we all cheered for...I dunno, like I get your perspective and point of view and I'm n it trying to tell you to change it, it just feels like this might be the cost some players pay for playing the sport and we're part of the machine as fans that ultimately churns out people that end up in these types of situations that otherwise would have not faced potential life changing brain trauma and subsequent dementia It is way more likely the takes about his concussion having these dramatic affects are just by people on the internet who actually know nothing about what they are talking about and he is just a douche.

CNYfan Posted June 26 Posted June 26 Where is Vontae Burfict these days? What a terrible look for the League.

But, we are a product of our own decisions. This guy was well compensated for a fraction of years and made as many as most people make in a lifetime over the court of 5-6 years all while choosing to do the dumbest things possible. having empathy is rational and appropriate but taking away the fact that this man is responsible for his own life and choices does not take away from his tragic downfall. 1 2
JP51 Posted June 26 Posted June 26 Honestly, my opinion only, not a doctor and dont play one on TV.... but I personally think the guy is legit mentally ill... sick... if he is then yes, I do feel bad for him... If not and he is just a complete dirtbag then no not so much. 8 hours ago, KDIGGZ said: RIP to the man once known as Antonio Brown. I choose sympathy Agreed! ... who knows if he has CTE etc... or some other illness... so I am with you, if he is really mentally injured or sick, whats not to feel bad about...

Brown said he filed chapter 11 bankruptcy AKA "reorganization" bankruptcy. this means he makes a plan to pay creditors over time while maintaining their business. But hey he has been a jerk to so many people here and there for years... do we actually feel sorry for him? HOWEVER, he was a heck of a player from 2013-2018 with the Steelers

He may have brain damage and might not be the same person he once was 2
Simon Posted June 26 Posted June 26 Are some of you folks incapable of homework? He's been an absolute scumbag since he was a teenager. Enough with the repetitive rehashing of the CTE foolishness. 2 1 4
