Robert Griffin III Joke About Antonio Brown Pool Video Receiving Some Backlash

RG3 with the zinger.

Robert Griffin III was watching Sunday’s NFL games and decided he had a pretty great joke he wanted to share with the rest of the world. The ESPN analyst then decided to share it with everyone on Twitter. Unfortunately the crude joke was about the video circulating of former NFL player Antonio Brown exposing himself to guests in a hotel pool while vacationing in Dubai.

Via NY Post:

“Embattled All-Pro receiver Antonio Brown was caught on video shoving his bare buttocks into the face of a stunned woman in a outdoor swimming pool at a swanky Dubai hotel – and then lifting his manhood out of the water and whipping it in her direction, as wide-eyed vacationers watched in shock.

Video footage obtained by The Post of the May 14 incident at the Armani Hotel Dubai shows Brown, 34, way too close for comfort to the woman, who initially laughed off the attention but quickly swam away to escape the controversial gridiron great.

Eyewitnesses said Brown — whose previous off-the-field antics have gotten him into hot water with the league and the law and who remains an NFL free agent after bizarrely quitting on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the middle of a game last season — had just met the woman and she was fuming after the encounter.”

RGIII apparently thought comparing Brown to the defenses of the Seattle Seahawks and Detroit Lions was a good idea.

RG3’s joke didn’t sit well with fans.

Sexual harrassment and Sexual Assault, always been a joke to the NFL. Domestic Violence, too. https://t.co/Ss9PUj8O4e

Public indecency, sexual harassment and potential sexual assault for shoving the woman underwater towards his body…RG3 didn’t show this much humor for Deshaun Watson

This is what Twitter is, someone saying something they probably would never dare utter in the real world. No one wants to be reminded of that Brown video, but you know Twitter was going to either love it or hate it.

RG3 better be careful what he tweets, his bosses aren’t going to like any controversies attached to AB.
