"this guy " knows ab.. he not some lame "Fan " of football or someone who doesn't know ab personally but wanna talk hella shit about him.. He actually knows ab enough to speak to his character and who he really knows him.
I was living in the Chicago area when he was in high school in Skokie and this isn’t surprising. I got the feeling he was a really intelligent kid who thought beyond football. To some degree I got the feeling if he wasn’t so naturally talented he might not have played. Incredible speed, was the state champ in the 60 meters…
I remember Brady made sure Grink got his incentives during a game. The next game, AB only needed so many yards or catches to get his incentives but he felt like they were purposely trying to keep him from getting those incentives when they just helped Gronk out the game before or it mightve been in this same game.
Nah he just realized what the league is. Started to get less targets with the Steelers. They tried acting like JuJu was really the guy. Big Ben through him under the bus like Big Ben never messes up. Oakland wasn’t built to contend so he wanted out, plus Mayock was apart of the negative narrative when he worked for espn. Patriots situation was all bs, crazy allegations and when he was released they all miraculously went away. At the Bucs they acted like Tom was a savior, when he’s a future hall of famer himself, plus Bruce Ariyans always had issues with AB dating back to his time at the Steelers. Ariyans and half the steeler players didn’t think a 6th round pick should get a max deal in his 3rd season. It wasn’t a hit, it was the disrespect. He got tired of it.
Yup, and that why he hates Ben and calls him a racist. For leading him on that throw right to that Burfict hit. Even tho playing alot on the slot was how AB became a star, he just deep down blamed Ben
4:34 January 2 2002? This reminds me of Tim Donaghy saying "fresh of breath air". After Vlad said that I had to immediately go back and rewatch just to make sure I heard that right 😆.
This guy is like the mother of a drug addict criminal young son who justifies or gives reason for her son's toxic behavior n actions. There's always a justification for AB to do that in Rashard's eyes which is denial and toxic cuz when AB hears that he believes he's justified in doing all this crap. Hey Rashard u say where AB came from etc but guess what, Chad Johnson came from Liberty City and look how that turned out. Chad's a real man who supports his kids and takes care of his family. Stop making excuses for AB cause that's classic "I'm the victim, it's ok what I do and can do whatever I want". I hope Rashard didn't become a psychiatrist or psychologist after retiring cause all his patients would be the world's most victimized ppl and everything in their lives wouldn't be their fault
@@kingsweattv2465 ya 99.99% aren't in the arena. And glad I'm not cause what's left of his brain is declining rapidly and the future he has definitely will be a tough one
That's a real Brotha speaking from experience not the side line. AB is clearly suffering from Trama to his brain form the game. He was one of the best to do it. Praying for A.B. at the end of the day he is somebody's son, brother, and father.
Folks hate an educated brother tht thinks before he speaks. When u carry yourself well and speaks accordingly they still find a problem. Dude spoke his truth and thts it insider info and he taking up for him cause some of us want AB to be tht dude with very lil info crazy but true
This brother loves ab. I never seen a bigger apologist in my life. At the end of the day every man is responsible for his own actions no matter what happens to you the one thing you always have control of is your reaction and response. And consequences wether good or bad always follow so choose your reactions wisely
It wasn't bout a contract they lied to him bout the severity of an injury and wanted him to keep playing when he couldn't go and say what u want bout AB but he's not wasting a down if he's able he's finna go
Especially high school. I watched a kid get his bell rung when my son was playing. Two of the coaches had the kid hide behind other players so the sideline medical staff didn't see that he was dazed. Once his head cleared they sent him back in.
Maaaan, I can appreciate Mendy’s loyalty, but… he’s got waaaay too many excuses for AB. No man should be that deep in another man’s head to try and justify all the questionable shit he’s done over the years.
He just giving another point of view and AB been talked about badly enough it’s okay for someone to say positive things in response to some one saying negative things
So let me get this straight. It wasn't about the money in Oakland when he acted out. But it was the money in tampa when he acted out. If he wanted money he shouldn't have been a racist and been whatever
What about the millions of people who think they know wtf Donald Trump means when he says things we hear him saying? Y'all select who you want to hate and embrace just off your fragile emotions, not because what the person did to you
Guys a narcissist most likely but definitely no character as a Man. The disgusting way he handled himself with the Raiders when they were nothing but open arms and beyond supportive was punk. Derek Carr invited him into his home and brought him with his family, went out of his way to get work in with him and the guy pulls all those stunts and then disrespect Carr publicly for no reason. A snake is a snake a punk is a punk and a narcissist is a narcissist
I never seen a man defend an another man like this ever in my lifetime… like he’s coming up with every reason why ab did what he did lol😂 I hope ab is paying him nosa we all need a friend like this💯
Fires don't always go out when you're done playing with them. The press is going to bring up the COVID card situation for years, your suspension just ended and you're not expecting it?
@@BankBizzy61Armyof1 yeah, but he had to know they would at least mention it. Was every single reporter in there supposed to ask him about 10 catches and 100 yards?
@@mr.joshua6818 true!!!!! But I'm sure they took it somewhere else....but when the team is truly for you they have things in place so such things won't be but Sooo much....
Sounds like what AB went through is the same thing that all black players go through....he just wasn't mentally equipped enough to handle the BS....and it is definitely BS.
Why do people defend clear emotionally uncontrolled people who actually have the power to control themselves but choose not to? I understand from brother to brother the sympathy but sometimes u gotta sit your brother to the side and say snap out of it . A lot of this mental health sympathy has been used to excuse terrible behavior done intentionally
How would you know if he has a mental issue or not....🤔 Like really how would you know that? Cuz you see clips of The man on TV or the Internet? Think about that statement you made
This guy had me on his side but as soon as he keeps making excuses for AB is just sad. That’s that bullshit privilege some people try to use. This is really sad by this guy.
He just giving another point of view and AB been talked about badly enough it’s okay for someone to say positive things in response to some one saying negative things
Reading the comments. It shows you don't know what the hell you talking about. Your not a player and you wasn't on the team. Your just like me another person with a opinion
Love vlad content but I can see now when he don't like you, he don't do no research. To say AB left cuz of money, after he has done multiple interviews breaking down why he left is crazy
Vlad this guy was a scrub RB in the NFL and from what I see he tries to make us think AB was victimized like no other human no matter what he did. If u want real Steelers and respected high value ex players during AB's time, then bring on Ryan Clark, J Harrison or Troy Polamalu. Ask this guy about AB supporting fully Ye's views and doubling down constantly on all of Ye's antics. I'm sure he'll say AB was victimized again.
@zm0neyy how many pro bowls?? Top 5 in rushing? Longevity? Etc etc. 2 1000 yard seasons on a heavy run offence team with great blockers even at WR like Hines Ward and the best blocking TE. He only got a superbowl cause he never even started or played in it. So what are you talking about??? Im guessing you have no clue about Steelers nation and our fan base
@@billymaltez8030 I would love for Vlad to interview Dick Lebeau, the architect of the 3-4 blitz defense and the last great defensive coordinator we had up until 2014. He was also a great DB back in his day and still holds the Lions all-time record with 61 INTs. He's 90 years old still coherent and would make for a dope interview, just like when he interviewed older pros such as Pete Rose, and Fred Williamson.
@draines9237 yes absolutely. That's the holy grail actually of that Steelers era. Best def coordinator who was respected just as much if not more, esp with their star players which is very hard nowadays, than the head coaches were during his tenure there.

He played with him he was close to him it's respect
ORRR he played in the NFL where it's not normal for the human body to hit your body against other grown men all game and understands AB a little bit..

That hit AB took from Vontaze Berfict in that game against the Bengals in 2016. Messed him up bad!
And he hasn't been right since 😂

Great brother.......and excellent point!!!!!
That Raiders situation wasn't so random. That's why John Gruden got sent out of there.
Valid point!

I don’t care what this dude is talking about. AB is a 🤡 no doubt about it.
I agree but AB does have some mental health issues.

No Antonio brown started sending pics of Brady wife and him…
Ppl say Antonio is a goof ball and clown but know nothig about mental diesese.
He doesn't have to be on social media! That's not what he's getting paid for!
It wasn't bout a contract they lied to him bout the severity of an injury and wanted him to keep playing when he couldn't go and say what u want bout AB but he's not wasting a down if he's able he's finna go
Sure 😂😂
How come no one has interviewed Vontaze Burfict about that hit?
Wasn’t 2002 Vlad
I still don’t know how college and high schools skirt liability from CTE
Especially high school. I watched a kid get his bell rung when my son was playing. Two of the coaches had the kid hide behind other players so the sideline medical staff didn't see that he was dazed. Once his head cleared they sent him back in.
Bro really said the year 2002 at 4:33 lmao
He was in a conversation with Mike mayock, he was certainly speaking to and about mike mayock
Speaking of the title, bro got a Rottweiler that been stuck in the pound 10 years face

Not for nothing Rashard was a solid RB in the league for a decade.
stop making excuses for him
Nobody aided AB in doing ALL of the things he did
When does personal accountability become a possibility
January 2 2002
AB screwed his self over. I don’t feel sorry for the guy.
Himself...ONE word 🤦🏾♂️
So let me get this straight. It wasn't about the money in Oakland when he acted out. But it was the money in tampa when he acted out. If he wanted money he shouldn't have been a racist and been whatever
Have you ever been to inner city Miami where he’s from? White people even call police that word. It’s not derogatory. It denotes police. Like “pig”
Exactly! This guy is making excuses for him. It’s just sad.
I’m only here for the comments 😂😂😂😂
AB for President I guess. This guy running for Vice!
😂😂😂😂
Nah bruh, AB be doing stupid shit off the field. And a liability at all times. You don't get paid that way.
This MF trippin!!! Trying to sound like he knows wtf he’s talking about. yeeaaaa right !

What about the millions of people who think they know wtf Donald Trump means when he says things we hear him saying? Y'all select who you want to hate and embrace just off your fragile emotions, not because what the person did to you
Annoying as shit hearing him come to the defense of AB. AB was a loose cannon.
whatever man 😂
Just goes to show you that your behavior and reputation preceed you. You can't act a certain way then wonder why people treat you accordingly

No character as a man but was literally regarded as the hardest worker in the nfl as well as a great teammate for a while
Have you seen how many hits to his head?. I would say he has had 100's of Sick Hits to the head.
Stop making excuses for a grown man on drugs!
This is my wife's name: did Aaron Rodgers get suspended 🤔 I forgot?
You got to understand AB. He's had THEE worst Head-shots. He was the greatest, but those hits jarred him into a zombie.
