Being one of the biggest stars in the NFL has it’s perks and downsides, one of them being the media. Before the start of Mini Camps Antonio Brown spoke to the media about his personal freedom and how the paint the narrative of him. When Brown had missed voluntary workouts, the media stated it was […]

sure it can be frustrating tools always twisting your words. Hang in there AB.
 
Toughen up butter cup. Although I feel for him and can understand his frustration but yet I have little sympathy for him. He mucks it up when things are good but then can't take the pressure due to it. If he did less off season antics and held it down a bit durring the season.......WhoALa, not nearly as scrutinized. He will get through this and hopefully find a way to cope with it. Good luck and tidings to him.

These clowns are killing the NFL and they have absolutely no self-awareness about it. Nobody wants to hear some spoiled kid who makes tens of millions of dollars to play football wonder aloud about how free he is. You’re free to quit football and get a regular job like your paying customers and nobody will bother you at all.
 
AB's comments make me think he is suffering from some major mental issues already.
 
I can understand Brown being unhappy about not wanting to catch passes from Rudolph, but the rest of his rant made no sense. The guy puts himself EVERYWHERE on social media and then complains about the media write about him. Get a clue, if you want to live a more private life, don't film every second of your day to share with the world.
 
He's been hanging with Chad Johnson to much, remember early in with Ocho, it was an that's cute and funny the **** he was doing, then it got old real quick

I will say that the one thing I have always sympathized with pro athletes for is the loss of privacy. As a private person myself I think it would be an absolute nightmare to not be able to go to a restaurant or out to a family function without people following me or sticking a microphone in my face. I can tell you that I would live as a complete recluse and be miserable despite the money. However, you have a point about the constant social media profile and postings. As a private person I have no social media accounts, I never have and I never will. Doesn't interest me. So yes, if he seeks more privacy, constantly posting about yourself on social media is not going to help.

I'm not sure it's about sincerely wanting privacy as much as it is Brown needing something to whine about.

It's always something with him.
 
yeah, the rest of the rant wasn't related so probably no way he would skate by it. But sorry
most of the media here are ding dongs.
 
Yes, the media can be a dumb ****** ***** but the player, can be just as dumb. If you want privacy,............do the things to acheive it. LOWER your flair..........Payton Manning was at the least as big of star as AB and yet he was somewhat a private person........ AB is a media hound crying about the media to get more media attention................................. Pathetic in some ways.!!!!!

Hard to have fame and anonymity these days. Everything is scrutinized so it can be spun for social media clicks or likes. That said, if you put yourself out there, some *** wipe will take it the wrong way. He wants to be "free" then stop calling attention to yourself.
 
Oh the horrors of dealing with fame and massive fortune. You can't be a look at me me me me person and expect it to be sunshine&blueberries dipped in chocolate all the time. When life just gets you down?...check your bank account...��

Manning was a far bigger star than AB.
