I haven’t been following this season of Dancing With the Stars as closely as I’d like, but it appears Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has been holding up pretty well early in the competition. 

Brown has survived two eliminations so far, and last week he danced to the Extra Mustard-certified banger “Adorn” by Miguel. Brown was back at it last night, performing the Foxtrot to Lukas Graham’s “7 years.” As an added punch to his performance, Brown called on his son Antonio Jr.—dressed in a matching outfit—to join him on stage.

I’m sorry, amidst all the awwww-ing and fawning, I’m a little disappointed in Brown. What kind of competitor calls in help from their kid? If you can’t complete a Foxtrot without some help from your boy, you don’t deserve to wear your dancing shoes. No wonder the Steelers lost to Peyton Manning’s noodly arm in the playoffs.

Antonio, uh, rub some dirt on it. Or something.
