I’ve been called worse things in the world than an asshole, but the Patriots players aren’t taking too kindly to the word that Steelers coach Mike Tomlin used to describe them that was accidentally caught on Antonio Brown’s live stream from the Steelers locker room after beating the Chiefs. Bleacher Report was able to get some comments from Pats players.
“…several Patriots players began responding to text messages from B/R asking what they thought of the video. Specifically, the part where Mike Tomlin called the Patriots “assh–es.”
The first Patriots player responded within minutes. It was, as the kids say, lit.
“F–k Mike Tomlin,” one said.
OK then.
“Why are we assh–es when he’s doing the name-calling?” asked another player. And he had some advice for Brown: “Put the phone down, dude. That violates the trust of your teammates and coaches.”
It was definitely not smart of Brown to make the video, but do we think that maybe the Pats players might be overreacting just a little? Or maybe this just fuels the drama for the great AFC Championship game. Whatever works I guess.
