Trying to interpret what Antonio Brown's tweets mean is nearly impossible.

Whenever I try, I feel like I'm Indiana Jones attempting to translate ancient hieroglyphics.


Almost everything Brown tweets is:

• Nonspecific

• Open-ended

• Contradictory

• Or all of the above

For example, look at this gem.

OK. I'll bite. What does that mean, A.B.?

Perhaps he's open to talking with the Steelers about coming back to work.

It could also mean his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has gotten permission to speak with other teams and maneuver an under-the-table, trade-and-sign type of deal. Which, by nature of this tweet, Brown would be removing from under the table.

With the way A.B. speaks on social media, you could also guess that he's just working out again. Or maybe he's welcoming new sponsors.

Who knows?

Exactly.

Regardless of what it means, many Steelers fans didn't take kindly to the tweet. It appears Steelers Nation has fatigued of Brown's online shenanigans.
