Who cares? Honestly, that's a lot more tame than I'd assume most coaches are after a hard fought victory. Zero issue with what he said, but I can understand why he's ticked at Antonio Brown.

It's just stupid in general though. Like who gives a frick if you open a facebook live while you're celebrating with your teammates. This is just Tomlin covering his arse for the remark he made on the video.

Dont'a Swagtower on Mike Tomlin's comments: "I don't care. Is that supposed to hurt my feelings?"

Most teams and players want what is said in the locker room to stay there

If I was Antonio Brown, I'd expect to get blasted for this. If Tomlin just let it slide, I'd lose some respect for him.

Leb is probably so pissed Tomlin is black, he would have had days of material for his show if the coach were white. Now he might actually be forced to do some work or even slightly discuss sports

Don't have a problem with Tomlin's words or his handling of AB. It was so pointless to even broadcast at that moment to begin with.

I watched the first couple of minutes and all AB really does is just smile at the camera and say "God is greatest" every 30 seconds.

He should've known better and could've easily waited until the after Tomlin gave a speech to start streaming.

That's often why you see great players move from team to team. Don't want that to happen to Antonio Brown
he's the only reason the steelers are relevant now that cowher and lebeau's defense is in a nursing home.

send brown packing and you may as well fire yourself. all talk, no action mike tomlin.

And you just bared your arse by showing you haven't watched a single Steelers game this year.

He was up and down. The Steelers won several games that he didnt do shite.

He only had 4 games over 100 yards, and only scored in 8.

Yeah I don't really follow that train of thought.

2nd in receptions
5th in receiving yards
2nd in TDs

I haven't watched football this year but for a couple of hours but roethlisbergers numbers over the past few years benefitted tremendously from brown.

The suggestion that he'd send him packing is absurd, but of course this is mike tomlin. I may tune in just to see the post game to see him try to string sentences together and make accusations of cheating



It makes sense that

This should have never happened in the 1st place... in this day and age it will though..... AB was all about himself there... the locker room is a sacred place after a game and he tarnished it.... Brown is a great player but, do the right thing man...... I wish it was the 70's and 80's again......
