The #Patriots have released WR Antonio Brown, as he indicated on Twitter. They have moved on.

[Grandy]

He took one look at Nate Hairston and asked for his release to avoid embarrassment on Sunday

Just heard on Michael Kay, if the league put him on the exempt list they’d have to pay him. And they owed him $5 mill on Monday. 

Pats got ahead of it but cutting him now. 

They made a money decision. 

wow, they timed the payment perfectly.

QFT

At this point, Antonio Brown has more TDs than every Jets WR combined.  You probably would have said the same thing about Quincy Enunwa and Antonio Brown and I both have more yards receiving for 2019. In fact, I currently also have more than Demaryius Thomas. Fact.

[Miss Lonelyhearts]

I dunno whether I'd rather see the other conspiracy theorist show up and embarrassingly try to hoodsplain this or just stay away and shut up. Hackenberg deserves some company looking dumb and incoherently muttering about how this is all part of the illuminati's plan.

It's my understanding that they have an above and beyond morals clause in his contract too. I dont think their exposure was ever more than the sum of his game checks.

so...   with the metoo movement and all...  i have come to ponder the use of the word "assault" ...   

i mean, if he jizzed on some womans back its obviously sick and wierd and creepy and wrong...  i dunno..  i consider assualt more violent...

but his acts are of a aggravated sexual sort...   he certainly deserves to get a royal beatdown by the men in these womens families...

thatd be a nice headline to read, actually...

 

All this shows is a lack of understanding the definition of assault.  Even the simple wikipedia definition should be enough - 

Quote

An assault is the act of inflicting physical harm or unwanted physical contact upon a person or, in some specific legal definitions, a threat or attempt to commit such an action. It is both a crime and a tort and, therefore, may result in either criminal and/or civil liability.

Pulling your dick out on somebody seems to fit the legal definition of sexual assault pretty well and spraying on her back certainly would be "unwanted physical contact."  

It's true that in the neighborhood, this kind of stuff was self-policed, but that doesn't change the fact that it fits the definition of sexual assault, and it has since long before #metoo.

In case there were ever any doubt, you are of course correct.

he's really an idiot then.  he should have stayed in OAK.

honestly i don't think this would have been an issue if he just kept his nose out of the press with all the training camp stuff.  show up and just play.

i believe AB actually did it.  Robbie wanted to.

is this nutting thing a WR thing?  Our QB likes to make out with girls like a good boy it appears.

the definition above says the threat of unwanted touching can be considered assault.

fwiw by that legal definition i have been the victim of multiple incidents of sexual assault...    im so wounded

It wouldn't matter.  The Raiders contract had offset language.  He will probably be filing grievances about the bonus money from the Raiders, but the Pats money would have offset that anyway.

Cmon over AB - you can have all the targets you want. Just one thing - gotta have your tongue cut out first. Don't worry - doctors will reattach it after the season.

The problem is that the terms are not consistent between civil and criminal law. But no, it's not. If Anderson had said it to the cop's wife and she sincerely and reasonably believed that he was imminently going to do it, then it would have been. But you see how there are any number of operative distinctions here.

this is where i get into the weeds..

assualt=physical attack is first english language definition...  so for me in many of these cases the word misconduct seems more appropriate/actually accurate than assault...

but then the LEGAL def goes and says any unwanted physical contact = assault.

its just a language thing...

Actually, the legal definition is threat or use of force on another that causes reasonable fear of imminent harmful or offensive contact.  Battery is the actual striking or "offensive contact."  That is why you always  hear assault and battery.    

The English language definition you mention is actually referring to battles and warfare, like Assault on Precinct 13.  The fact is, we are discussing the legal definitions because this relates to a legal case - Brown is being sued for the tort. 

While we are on the lesson, the legal definition of mayhem is the wanton removal of a body part.  You would think that wouldn't come up much, but think of Lorena Bobbit or that time in the 80's when some dude we were talking to started brawling outside a club and the dude Mike Tyson'ed the guys ear off.
