Former NFL star Antonio Brown has been comparatively quiet these days, not popping up on information feeds an excessive amount of outdoors of our Jackass bracket match, for which he not too long ago superior to the Remaining 4. That ought to be thought-about factor as a result of there hasn’t been any scandalous habits out of AB this month. Nevertheless, what Brown did get entangled with earlier this month is changing into half proprietor of an Area soccer group within the Nationwide Area League.

The short-term consideration the NAL and Albany Empire will obtain would possibly improve publicity, however this doubtless received’t produce any long-term positive aspects for the model. Brown’s father, Eddie Brown, as soon as performed for the Albany Firebirds within the Area Soccer League (AF2) within the Nineties. The elder Brown performed vast receiver and was inducted into the AFL Corridor of Fame in 2011.

Past that a part of this story, you need to marvel if laying down with AB will in the end be price it for the Empire and NAL total. It’s not that folks don’t deserve second possibilities, however what number of second possibilities do you want? Brown has stayed within the information for many of the mistaken causes for a number of years, whether or not on the sphere or off. AB simply can’t appear to get proper.

Think about working for somebody who’s infamous for allegedly not eager to pay folks for providers rendered. He’s additionally been accused of sexual assault/harassment on a number of events. The underside line right here is that it’s arduous to belief Brown. That’s what we’ve seen over the previous few years. Tom Brady was seemingly his remaining lifeline within the NFL, and he finally turned heel on him.

Hopefully, it’s all price it for the NAL. It’s unlucky, however the longer he’s with the group, the extra probability there’s of the previous NFL ALL-PRO going off the rails. We’ve seen it too many instances already. Within the NFL, he had folks to reply to, and he nonetheless managed to search out bother at almost each flip. Seeing a black athlete have possession of a sports activities franchise is nice, as we haven’t at all times obtained these alternatives traditionally. However after all, the NAL goes for the man who will finally act a rattling idiot.

Benefit from the publicity whereas it lasts. The NAL will doubtless remorse this transfer sooner relatively than later.
