agarcia34 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 No surprise. The NFL can’t bend the knee to any player and not lose respect around the league. Now just show up AB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrOaktown_56 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 We all gotta chill. Let's see this plays out in the next couple of weeks. The media would literally take any storyline about AB and run with it. He's not alienating teammates, breaking the law, or beating women. Let's not act like the sky is falling when it isn't. The JDR locker room issues in 2017 were 10 times worse than this and not even 1/10th of the media coverage was on that story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 0% chance he walks away from $30M+. His feet will heal, he will wear an approved helmet, and he will play this season at an elite level. Everything else is just noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) He’s not retiring and will be back! Edited August 12, 2019 by agarcia34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 We all knew it was BS. However the media thrives off Raider drama and anything AB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance he sits out, he wants to ball and he will in the Silver and Black. The guy wants a helmet that he's comfortable with, I get that and doesn't want to have to settle for something that he isn't comfortable with and impedes his vision. Make him sign a waiver and let the dude do what he does best, torch even the best DB's in the league. Don't pay attention to this nonsense, in a few weeks no one will remember this trash. All this nonsense and just like I said in 2 weeks no one will remember this trash. Media garbage that they blow you for a headline. AB is going to ball for us as soon as his feet are good. He is such a massive upgrade as a player over Cooper it's not even funny. Yeah, I had to throw a Cooper dig in there, it's been awhile.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude literally posted "if I leave, will the fans still love me"....Im happy hes smart enough to realize how dumb it would be to walk away from 30.1 mill guaranteed, but he definitely dangled retirement over this issue.

agarcia34 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 That quote was from a movie. I don't think retirement really ever was a possibility. AB definitely liked that people where talking about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 So in the end, he did kindof win his battle with the NFL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chali21 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Well here’s hoping he can get back on his feet after this setback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Expected back today. Have to wonder how he’s feet are doing. Hard Knocks gonna love this moment when AB comes back. They should play it up like they did with Revis when he returned to the Jets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
