AB Twitter Update

AB will play. Watch his snapchats. Dude is just fine. He got his bell rung and he's gonna be ok to play this Sunday. We just need Ben to be effective.
 
He, or someone for him, posted something not long ago on his Facebook page asking what Steelers Nation would do with the Power Ball winnings.
 
If you don't have snapchat, he posts on there all day long. He's gonna play. Its all about how Ben's shoulder holds up.
 
If AB is a no go, Coates may dress, but Jessie James will see more action instead.
 
We need him to get back to that quick release he was working on at the start of the season anyway. lately he's gotten back to holding the ball again.

Think that was a function of playing a top tier defense Saturday. The passing game was not sharp. For that matter it was off v Cleveland and Baltimore too. I think he played sick those two games. Who knows, just want a W. Knocking on the door of the repus lwob
 
We want real time news? Watch the line in Vegas.

This... Vegas opened the Steelers with +5.5 that quickly went to +7...that should tell you all you need to know on the injury front. Now, if that line suddenly starts to drop toward the +3, +2.5 area, we know that Ben/AB/Williams will play.

Disagree completely with this. Vegas lines can make early moves even if injuries are not a key factor. I also don't think the spread is going to move anywhere near +3 even WHEN it is clear that both Brown and Ben will play. Williams is extremely doubtful.

No. The line changes based on how people are betting. It's not based on insider information.

The only way injuries have anything to do with the line is if the betting public (us) changes their perception of how they will impact the game and their wagers reflect it.
 
...and then I winked at him! Lol. I pulled that other ******* hair. Ahh good times.

That's pretty funny!

First order of business......dispatch the most vile of hitmen to Ohio.

Or the sharps in Vegas...but not at this point...it is WAY too late in the week for them to move it very far now.
 
Checked out AB's Twitter and it's damn near unreadable with all the ads. Every tweet is either fan duel or selling his t shirts

I don't have snap chat, but some one tweeted a pic from his snap chat, its a selfie of him with a caption but I can't remember the caption. And he posted a pic of himself on one of those razor scooters in his house on instagram, If he's suffering from symptoms he wouldn't be on his phone as much as he is, or he's not listening to the doctors.
 
It would be nice if he kept a low profile. Guess that's too much to ask.

The guy is kind of a promotional diva, but that has basically been the standard for star WRs around the league over the past 20 years or so.

I really do not worry about it because he's a GREAT player who, by all accounts, gives it everything he has both in practice and games.
 
No practice today. If he doesn't practice tmrw, he will be out.

Hard to blame him. He's building a brand and setting himself up nicely for when his playing days are over.

Famously in the seventies they had a leaguwise psych profile done on the positions and the wrs were most narresistic egotistical and attention grabbing of all the positions... Over the last like 35 years you probably couldnt name a dozen star wideouts that totally broke that mold... Even ward could grab a spotlight at times
 
AB is shrewd as hell. Starting saying Business is Booming on his snapchat with other Steelers players and staff, now he is selling t shirts. Kudos to him.

His snapchat stories are quite entertaining at times. Add to that his reputation as a hard worker is evident. Dude is always at the gym! Always guys outside the practice facility waiting with jerseys and stuff for him to sign as well.

I think AB loves the spotlight I'm not going to hold that against him. I think the difference between him and many of the other WR divas through the years is he still remains humble. Yeah, he wants the ball but not to the detriment of the team. Well at least that is how I see it.
