On behalf of the 2019 Miami Dolphins, WE should probably all kill ourselves.

People are free to use “we” when referring to their favorite teams so long as people like me are free to call them on their bullshit. Why is this remotely acceptable when it comes to sports but (obviously and correctly) bogus when it comes to other areas of life? I’m a big fan of Star Wars, but I don’t say shit like,…
He only called Mayock a cracker after he was fined. That was a big part of Farris’s point.
I think it's more about consistency - don't say everything is cool, we have your back, then two weeks later act like it was beyond the pale. Even at the last minute Gruden was acting like being secretly recorded was cool and funny, right before they fined him.
I made this exact sentiment last week when this was going down and got flamed. I am going to be so pissed if you get a lot of stars for saying this now.
Yeah and I also feel the point made about the timing is a great one that I hadn’t really considered. If everything was already settled, as it seemed to be, to make that move only then is really questionable no matter who you are dealing with.
I think any team can reach a breaking point with someone like AB but he makes a very good point that the Raiders said they supported him and then after all the drama and him finally seeming set to go week one, they drop a fine on him for some shit that was weeks ago and say it voids his guaranteed money. It was a very…
Except Boris Johnson is now totally fucked, and Antonio Brown is now totally unfucked.
And Boris Johnson really is a cunt.
It gets funnier when you think about the Raiders tried to make Martavius Bryant work last year. So that's two straight years of Steelers WR acquisitions that just do not plan out.
It’s surreal. The Raiders got literally nothing for 2 picks.
So he wanted to go to the Patriots because they are good and it would burn the Steelers, the Steelers said no, Rosenhaus is his agent, he has a series of bizarre issues that culminate in a demand to be cut, he gets cut, a camera crew following him around happens to catch him finding out and he starts cheering and…
You could also sing it like this:
The only thing making the inevitable 7th patriots ring at all palatable is how much it will burn the Raiders and Steelers.
The fact that the Patriots getting Antonia Brown from Steelers ended up costing a third and a fifth round pick... from Raiders who got nothing in the end continues to both baffle me and be utterly hilarious.
I ripped on AB up and down during this saga. But like a splash of cold water it’s starting to hit me that maybe, just maybe, AB isn’t as crazy as he seemed. Is there a chance he pulled a Boris Johnson, playing the fool while actually playing everyone? It’s feasible that he could have hated the Steelers so much that he…
You should check with your co-workers. I believe that the unwritten rule on Deadspin ist still to hate anything Patriots/Boston related with a white hot furor that trumps (no pun intendend) everything, even your disdain for the Steelers. Priorities please!
Considering the whole time this was happening there was an actual documentary crew following everyone around and filming as much as possible, that makes the comparison even more fitting.
Everyone involved in this saga on both the Steelers and the Raiders feels like a character in a Christopher Guest movie.
