More on #Raiders WR Antonio Brown and Mike Mayock yesterday: It did not get physical, sources say. But after a screaming match, Brown told Mayock that he would hit him in the face and then punted the ball… and said, Fine me for that. 💸💸💸

They had interest. They were talking about the PRICE. There's no doubt in my mind.

I don't think they ever reached an agreement.

John Warrow has said all along what happened

He is the only "local" guy that gets the scoop right

Maybe if his hockey IQ was higher ..... he would be playing the tournament. #sarcasm

I did buy tickets to tomorrow’s game. So if he plays. That would be cool. Atleast the lesser jack is playing for the devils.

That guys scoop is way after the fact. He says. “I can confirm this” After it’s been announced. He is no better than Jeremy whites super secret source

Bills’ GM Brandon Beane: “We inquired about Antonio Brown on Tuesday, and kept talks open with the Steelers. We had positive discussions, but ultimately it didn’t make sense for either side. As great a player as Antonio Brown is, we have moved on and our focus is on free agency.”

“You try and talk to people that have been around him, that know him, maybe teammates that have played with him - guys you know that still know him or are connected to him. And (then) try and find out what’s going on. What’s going great for him? What’s the problem? And you just try to draw your best opinion.”


Sounds like it was definitely 99% done

I know it's unlikely we see it in Buffalo barring any injuries, but Hammond's new mask is pretty sweet. I like the Hamburglar riding in a barrel. Says he's getting an Amerks one made as well.


Full look at Andrew Hammond’s new Sabres mask. The Falls effect on the left side bison is cool https://t.co/wICJVTqGpW

I saw that earlier!

It's very well done, I love the art that's involved with goalie masks especially when they incorporate the local community

Heard a report that there is a clause in his contract the makes his guaranteed money ($30Million) dependent on no disciplinary action.

This could be an insanely expensive temper tantrum.

@RapSheet
Sources: The #Steelers are closing in on a deal to send star WR Antonio Brown to the Buffalo #Bills. There it is.

Gerry Dulac

@gerrydulac
Steelers and Bills had”positive” trade talks last night, but deal fell apart because Antonio Brown nixed going to Buffalo, per source.


Yep never close lol

I was born in the same suburb of ROC where Gio was. He still lives there.

(I moved to the East side.)

I still don’t have sources.

Yeah, does not seem like Beane nor McDermott would have even considered trading for him. If I'm not mistaken, didn't Beane say something like 'They called us and we said no'?
- adambuffalo


Based on all of the media and reporters, Brown didn't even have a chance to have a say. Brown's agent discussed term with Buffalo and Buffalo was not willing to accept them. This matches several reports from Beane, agent and several reporters.
