Ben and AB having relationship problems. .

As long as it's not a distraction, Ben said on his show today when AB was approached by the refs during Bengal or skins game about him changing his shoes or he'll be ejected, AB came to Ben for advice.

If he needed advice then he's got a bit of stupid in him, change your effin cleats and follow the uniform policy. If you really need advice in this situation you are a dumbass. I love me some AB, but c'mon are you willing to get ejected so you can auction off your cleats for a few a bucks to keep business boomin'?

Team first period or get off the bus.
 
Antonio Brown likes winning too.
He also draws coverage from opponents best players sometimes two.
Ben isn't going to throw into double or triple coverage but will throw to an open man.
The sports writers love drama and in this case there isn't any.
Mike Wallace didn't like not getting the ball when double covered. He bolted when given the chance, worked out well for him didn't it.
 
It is shoes, for **** sake. Short of him putting on high heels or something, I defy anyone in the stands or on TV to realize what the heck was on his shoes. So this goes to the NFL and Antonio Brown. Who cares? Nobody would know anything about the shoes if the NFL didn't make a big deal of it. And Brown, if you want to do something to honor somebody, maybe do something more than wear a pair of shoes that nobody can tell what they are unless they are standing next to you.
 
I disagree, it's kinda visible if we lose and his stats are good that he's not bothered and if we win and he didn't have too many receptions he's kinda pissed off (remember last year with Vick at QB).
AB wants every pass on every play to be thrown to him whether he's open or not (he always thinks he's open), but that's how you be great.
Ben and Hines Ward weren't besties either.

I truly believe AB does not care about winning. I love the talent, don't really like the person. AB would rather have crazy stats than win IMO.

IMO he does all this stuff solely to attract media attention. It seems very calculated. His handlers want him to be a star outside of football. Any publicity is good publicity.
 
His agent is Drew Rosenhaus right? It is very calculated, a guy trying to reach his maximum earning potential. I don't really fault him for trying to make up the money that isn't in his contract, but always remember team first.
 
Yes, without Plaxico, without Holmes, without Wallace Ben would suck... wait. I think Ben has a lot to do with receivers in Pittsburgh looking good.

All you need for proof is look at AB's #'s when Ben isn't playing. "Nuff said. Shut up AB. Be grateful for what you have.
 
How does writing/exposing this story help the Steelers? Is there something more in the fully paid story? If not, then this is about a writer looking to stir the pot on a 4-1 team.
I get that this "may develop" into a real story, and the writer wants to be first to print, but Tomlin taking away the ping pong tables was a far more productive use of ink at this point in a pleasant season.
 
Watch this and tell me AB is having relationship problems with anybody...
