Antonio Brown: 'From Now On, Call Me Ronald'

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown wants people to address him by a new name: "Ronald."

In an interview Friday, Brown made the demand to reporters, without much (any) explanation.

Q: What about your cleats this week?
Brown: It's top secret. From now on you gotta call me Ronald.

Q: Who else do you (pay attention to?)
Brown: Ronald, I'm watching Ronald every day.

Q: Any lingering effects from that hip injury you had a couple weeks ago?
Brown: There's effects against Ronald everywhere.

Q: What's the whole Ronald thing?
Brown: I can't tell you, it's top secret. It's my new name, 'Ronald.' From now on, call me 'Ronald.'

Any guesses as to what the "Ronald" riddle means?
