Ghost of Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 So they're just like everyone else? Yeah I remember Ed McCaffrey, Ricky Proehl, Al Toon and Art Monk would just turn into babies when things didn't go their way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TouchdownSkin Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 How was what he did on the sidelines vulgar? Looked to me like he was getting the crowd pumped up since the game was tied. Did i miss something? You and I must have different opinions of vulgar behavior by a "professional" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyfan1993 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 You and I must have different opinions of vulgar behavior by a "professional" Was there something else he did that I missed? I took my eyes off the tv for a few minutes until he was standing on the Giants bench pumping up the crowd. Is that what the vulgar thing was?

Ghost of Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 the joke was "all" people (adults) often act like children when they don't get their way. dumbass. I wasn't trying to spoil your fun. Wanted to post that before but I'm saying Des' remark better describes a certain generation and background. I know Clark was explosive but mainly towards his own sideline lol and about getting the call, not ****ing about being shutdown. Was there something else he did that I missed? I took my eyes off the tv for a few minutes until he was standing on the Giants bench pumping up the crowd. Is that what the vulgar thing was? Vulgar has a much broader meaning than its use as euphemism for profane or pornographic or lewd. I think this low, undignified, lacking in decorum or restraint sense is what he meant.

Destino Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 the joke was "all" people (adults) often act like children when they don't get their way. dumbass. Only because we adults are boring. Boring in our use of language (describing any immature behavior as childish) and boring in our tantrums. Adults are said to act like children when they complain, sulk, and become obstinate. Children are like that when they have to eat salad on a Tuesday. That's the beginning not the defining aspect of their emotional outpouring. What Odell did was much closer to a toddler's glorious eruption of displeasure. He started screaming, emoting wildly, and even hit the other kids to show how mad he was. Watching his tirade I thought "a bit of string cheese and a nap would settle him right down." He's certainly not the only adult that goes full blown toddler, but he belongs to that particular smaller more entertaining group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I see it as egotistical hype and believing he is above the rules of the game. He needs to be reeled in. I think he needs to get blasted. Unfortunately this league no longer allows for natural checks and balances. All these offensive players dance so much and show up defenders now because they know they are virtually untouchable. Makes me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassSkinsFan Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 I like how this light punishment of OBJ for headhunting another player comes during the same week the NFL pulls funds for the BU concussion study (yet denies doing it). Maybe this should go in the conspiracy thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedBNG Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 1 game suspension, heard on the sports radios... Guess who hears his appeal? (hint: played for the Redskins and Eagles) http://www.csnmidatlantic.com/redskinsblog/former-redskins-wr-hear-odell-beckham-appeal Odell, your toast!

SkinsFTW Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Toast or not. He's still only getting 1 game max when he should be out for 1/4 of a season at least for showing the entire world that he still wears pampers and that his parents never broke out the leather belt on his punkass. This dude needs some Adrian Peterson treatment IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Odell Beckam deserves his suspension, but the refereeing crew that worked the game should be fired. They could have nipped it in the bud sooner, and should have ejected him during the game after that hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonArtest15 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 NFL got what they wanted out of that match up (ratings). There wasn't a chance in hell Coughlin would bench Beckham. Despite what fans and casual observers think, WINNING (and talent) in the NFL, trumps just about everything. This is why guys like Greg Hardy, Aldon Smith, and Junior Gallette are still employed and the main reason why Beckham finished the game out. NFL can have all the PSAs, say all the things you want to hear off the field, but at the end of the day, these owners, GMs, coaches, etc. will do everything the can to get W's.

Redskin4ever Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Here's to hoping the Panthers don't make the Super Bowl. I want to see a Beckham v Norman matchup in the Pro Bowl. Talk about a ratings bonanza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you can explain why you found it "ironic", since you felt the need to comment. (fyi---nick and I have had all sorts of fun, support, argument, and jabs over ten years or so---the "dumbass" was a friendly one) holy **** this topic seems to be way more sensitive than i would have dreamed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justice98 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 O'Dell just made himself a target. Players will be targeting him mentally and physically for the rest of his career. They found a huge chink in his armor. Additionally he took a cheap shot not looked at kindly among other players (by what I've read/heard). They will all be trying to make him their ****. He made himself a target long before this Panther game. He got some vines and videos that are, shall we say, a tad curious. Thats what all these players are responding to. They seen 'em, they talk, they know the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonArtest15 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 WHOA! Ron Jaworski @jawsespn 8m8 minutes ago NFL Films BREAKING NEWS: Odell Beckham suspension to be OVERTURNED! (Per sources in NYC) Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodBits Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 WHOA! Same **** that happens all the time. NFL wants to look like they give a **** about domestic violence, player safety, etc. But suspensions get overturned or reduced nearly 100% of the time. They do this all the time. They don't care. Regardless of what a player does, if he can play football they want him to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't take it in a negative way, just wanted people to know why I said it. We're all good here. I think. At least that's what Dan paid me to say.

justice98 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I don't know if I buy this overturning business. Jaws sources are trumping everyone elses's now, cuz nobody else is even hinting this. Could be a hacked account situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
