So I’m pretty certain AB is gonna play football in the NFL again. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s this year.  So the question is - which team gambles.

Poetic justice would be if he were forced to play for the Dolphins.  But that won’t happen.  So who’s your guess?  

I’ll go with Bad Pete and the Seahawks or Jerry’s β€˜boys.  Two long shots would be the Bills and Chiefs.  Okay, so I picked 12.5% of the league.  So what.

I think the vikings would be willing to give him a shot if they can recover some of Cousin's money to pay for AB's cryotherapy treatments and skin grafts. SKOL!

A long-time local sports scribe here has been waxing poetically the last few weeks, reminiscing about sports stars with Atlanta connections.
He discussed Andre Rison a couple of weeks or so back, focusing mostly about his interview with him after his goofy bitch girlfriend burned down his mansion.

He included a tidbit about a local businessman contacting him, inquiring about Rison's whereabouts. It seems Rison had bought recording equipment from this man, but had failed to pay for it. He put this man in touch with Rankin Smith (former Falcons owner for you young 'uns), who wound up writing a check to this man.

As far as I know, Rison was OK during his short stint in Green Bay, but now it's easy to see why Wolf didn't want any part of him after the Superb Owl victory.

If Charles Manson was a NFLPA member, they’d support him too. Gotta love unions.

If they DON’T do that he can sue them for dereliction of duty or failure to

represent. I’m a former local union president and know all about that law.

Yep. Gotta represent people even if you don't agree with their stance. It's the whole premise of a labor union.

He’s got a decent point when referencing Big Ben and Kraft.  I’m not saying he should be allowed in the league, rather, those two shouldn’t.   

The Kraft incident especially.   With Big Ben it was before the β€œprotect the shield β€œ era of discipline.   Kraft was literally this summer.   So while it’s not the NFL keeping Brown out, it’s literally a guy who was actually arrested and charged for sexual crimes.  Lol.  Fucking crazy times we’re living bros.

Yup, you represent them, meaning you attempt to make all parties follow the contract.

BTW....I’d tried to delete my original post, but it got copied in a reply. Not trying to open a can of worms. My only experience with unions was paying $250 at McCormick   Place in Chicago to a union electrician to plug in my booth light during a convention.    Bless their hearts.

Why do you hate your country?

That's quite a leap.

I hate France, I only mildly dislike the USA.

Patriots should be forced to pay him and lose a 1st rounder just because they are fucking scumbags who colluded with Brown in the first place.
