Iverson talking about midseason practices for an injured veteran is much different than crybABy begging off learning his new QB and team in camp.I think it's just a ruse to get out of training camp.

I believe this term of endearment has recently been changed to cryo-bABy, disrespectfully

This is the hilarious part. Gruden’s says it’s a personal issue (re: helmet demands) and he is hurt (foot), which he says wasn’t his fault. It hasn’t been specified as to whether his foot condition is related to cryo treatment performed here in the states or if he had it done in France. One article said he went to France for treatment after the cryo mishap.
The helmet rule penalizes the TEAM if it allows a player to wear a helmet not approved by the independent authority of athletic equipment, Professional, collegiate or below. Any penalty/fines/suspension to the player is from the TEAM, not the NFL (who would severely fine the team).
Gruden’s statement that AB “would play without a helmet if he could” is so classic!!

He is still the poster boy for something--- not sure what?
Maybe a furniture company will pick him up to promote a new line of indestructable and waterproof furniture
You know something like " Pool duck " chairs & accessories
Rumour has it he was recently cast to play the lead in not one but two possible movies scripts: "Brown and Out in Beverly Hills II " and " Leaving Football Before Las Vegas"
we will have to see how that plays out......can't wait

No it isn't. Guaranteed AB thinks he doesn't need practice.

I think he likes to practice and workout, just not with the team.

Just watched it today. He flat out told Gruden "you can't cut me" and he was right. Dude had no respect for his teammates either in non-contact sessions.

I love the part where he parks right next to Carr's Rolls and opens his car door so it is 1mm from the Rolls...gets out and leaves the car door open...goes to his trunk and takes out 50lbs of candy for his nourishment.
Yeah I watched it online a couple of days ago and I agree Abrams came off like Jalen Ramsey 2.0 in the attitude department. I had thoughts of him as a draft possibility, now I am just glad he is not even an after thought. Dial it down a notch there big boy. I bet CDN TE Luke Wilson beats him with a baseball bat before camp is over. How dare he disrespect a two sport athlete on the first day.
Then Luke will say SORRY (but he won't mean it)

It's astonishes me deeply as to how "petty" some of these players are. It's like they have never been held aountable or payed the consequences of their actions. Oh wait, they haven't, thus the pussified generation.

And to think the Steelers didn’t want to trade him to the Patriots.

20 tweet thread on all the AB in Oakland drama. 3rd and 5th sounds fine to me right about now.

What a douche. He's standing there smirking at the head coach. Challenging him. Would have been great to see his face if Gruden just said get the **** off my field. You're fired.
Exactly this. A lot of these guys have been coddled since mid/high school.
Hate to be a douche, but seeing some of these privileged wankers implode is kinda amusing, but the sympathetic side in me feels bad they never took advantage of the resources that were thrown at them in HS and Kawledge

Basically it says "don't play, don't get paid". The NFL has taken a very stern stance.
little titties doesn't have a helmet to sit on.
