Ep. 079 What did Antonio Brown’s Twitter Q&A Reveal?
Release Date: 02/18/2019
Steelers Outpost Podcast
The Steelers pulled the cover off of the Mazerati to see if the engine would start. After a couple of sputtering attempts, it revved up with Ben Roethlisberger and the offensive starters methodically marching 58 yards down the field for the team's first touchdown, a 17 yard pass to JuJu Smith-Schuster. This feels real. Not like 8th grade with Bubba Kowalchik towered over the entire middle school at 5'6", only to stretch out to 5'8" by senior year. NO. This feels like.......destiny.

Nick flies solo in this episode with time literally in the air and unavailable at game time.
- Antonio Brown has been in existential crisis since at least last summer, starting with his complaint that he hasn’t been allowed to express himself.
- AB held a Twitter Q&A on February 16. Unless you are AB’s therapist, you’ll need a cryptographer to figure out what he said, but we try to decipher it.
- He referenced Ben’s “owner mentality”, his seeming impunity from criticism even as he’s criticizing teammates for their play. We gave said all along that we agree that Ben does himself, nor the team any favors with these comments. But is your sense of self so fragile that you quit the team?!
- AB forgets that he has enjoyed his own level of impunity over the years...

- Living off-campus during training camp
