There was another game left to pursue those incentives. Arians cut him for not entering the game. Why would AB lie about being hurt and not being able to play if there is a million dollar incentive to pursue? I get it, AB is evil and big bad villain. But if there's a million dollars at stake, why would he lie? I think I'll believe AB on that one.
Yeah, there's nothing in AB's history that says he would lie or is prone to deceiving and cheating people. Nothing at all.

Your character is the accumulation of your actions and AB deserves no sorrow even if MAYBE he got shit on here (I'm not running with one report as gospel here). Put more succinctly, fuck that jackass.
Maybe Arians gives him the benefit of the doubt if he weren't such a jackass.

Growing up I wanted to do something in music. Saw far too many really talented people that just never could make a full time living at it, so I decided Accounting was probably a good place to start. Now looking back, I do really wish I would have given it a shot. There is no reason I couldn't have taken 5 years and really put forth the effort to see if there was any traction there. I played it safe, and now I have too many responsibilities to take a chance like that.
Not to derail too much, but that's my attitude with NYC. I should've taken 5 years after my graduation and just toughed it out there. Now, got a couple of rugrats so it would never work

11 minutes ago, Vic Mackey said:Maybe not? But that was a moot point. Arians did not allow him to even try to get it. Arians never liked him. He knew AB would go ballistic and would be the bad guy. Then he can swoop him and tell everyone how righteous he was for cutting him. Hell even thought Ian Rappaport told what really happened, no one cares anymore. Damage done. It's like all these stories where the true side comes out later but doesn't matter because court of public opinion has already ruled.
If you don't think he would've squeezed out 8 catches, 1 td and 55 yards in three games, what makes you think he would've done it in the final game? On a bad ankle. Antonio burned any equity or leeway he had with Arians when he was suspended for the fake vaccine card.
In my younger days, I used to work for a certain computer sweatshop located in RR, making chump change. As with most places, we had an allotted number of sick days. It was a young crowd and with that there were quite a few partiers. One, a reasonably attractive female burned through her "sick days" by April. She ended up calling in sick, and this time she really was sick, and they fired her. She had a doctor's note and everything, still fired her. Actions have consequences. AB will be ok, but I think he's done with football. Unfortunately, this girl did not go topless when she was escorted out.

Antonio Brown needed: 8 more catches to unlock a $333,333 bonus. He also needed 55 receiving yards to unlock another $333,333 bonus. He also needed just 1 receiving TD to unlock another $333,333 bonus.
Probably wouldn’t have had an issue making those if he hadn’t been suspended three games right?

Correction. Arians cut him on the spot. Hence the outburst. The outburst was a reaction to being cut during a game. Arians was not some stand up saint for cutting AB after that. But of course, we all react without all the facts and jump on AB.
I have zero problem with what AB did after hearing this news.
AB's contract is incentive based. He had $1million to still get. he has been hurt and was trying to play through it to get it. But felt it was too much and did not want to enter back. To cut a player for that? Yeah, very dick move and deserved the fuck you AB gave them.
What was the 1 million tied to?

Seemingly 85% of generic office workers trying to navigate business casual
this looks so much worse than jeans and the metallica speed of sound tour t-shirt. at least that guy might occasionally have an interesting thought. actually I can think of 1 dude who does that - jeans and grateful dead shirts half the time. is lead scientist for R&D.
I actually like wearing a sport coat and don't quite understand the aversion to it, or at least I wish I wouldn't get the "got a job interview?" cracks from dudes dressed like above when it's fucking 48 degrees outside and I walk in wearing a coat.
Not sure if intentional, but homeboy has a stain on his shirt. Also, I kind of like those shoes.

So I am reading that Arians told AB to get off the sidelines because he wouldn't go in and play on a hurt ankle and a $800k bonus was tied to this and Arians told him he is not getting this. Hmmmmm...
So he did, or didn't want to play? Arians said if you're not going in now you're done for the game.

I think this nails it. The only thing I would add is:
-I work for one of those organizations who sniff their own farts and we love our own swag, so it's definitely acceptable to wear one of the dozens of company merch for all internal meetings regardless of the stakeholders.
- When we do off-sites in person, you can definitely tell the bottom tier employees because they've either forgotten how to pivot and dress like a professional or are super junior and are like Bain and fully embraced being born in the darkness that is Zoom-first life.
That's the beauty of being in software. I can throw on a company pullover and it'll work for any audience. The only time I blazer it up is when I have an inperson client meeting.

I don’t dress up for client meetings much less sitting at my computer all day. Shorts and a polo when it’s warm, jeans and a button down when it’s cold whether I’m working or not. I’ve told a couple people that made comments they were free to find someone that would dress up for them if it was an issue. I was that way prepandemic, so everyone is helping my cause now. I’ve never worn a suit and can’t remember the last time I wore a tie.
I mean I think it's going to be different for all of us. I don't wear a jacket or suit of any soft unless I'm interviewing. Even for customer meetings, anything like a button down will work. For all internal meetings, I'm wearing what I want, but generally a nice sweater will do ie I'm not wearing my Metallica 87' tour tshirt.

Those of you that are working from home. For non customer meetings, or just meetings where you don't need to be on camera, do you get dressed anyway or just stay in your casual clothes? One school of thought is getting dressed like you were going into work raises your game and standards. I'm assuming those of you with customer meetings do get dressed.
