A little concerning as a fan re: OBJ

BillyBoy8384 : 9/22/2014 10:01 am
I dont want to read into it too much but Beckham Jr looked like he didnt care who was out there playing yesterday, I was sitting behind the Giants bench about 20 rows up so I had a good view of the whole team


...everyone was high fiving , jumping up and down on TO's , big 3rd down stops, and TD's even the guys who didnt dress and the PS guys....After every offensive series you saw Eli, Cruz, Randle, Donnell etc surrounding him going over the plays on the IPads, I would have liked to see OBJ going over and learning while sitting but he looked dejected. Didnt even go over and sit with the other WR's. Didnt seem like he gave a shit. Never stood up , just sat there in his red hoody sweatshirt. Myabe took a few strolls to the Gatorades but basically the whole game he was sitting. While players like Dan Fox were getting the crowd going and jumping up and down, OBJ just seemed like he wasnt included( I know that sounds dumb but that what it loooked like) Beckham just sat in a red sweatshirt and didnt even stand up until the 4th QT when the game was out of reach...like he was getting ready to walk off to the locker room after the 4 minutes ran off the clock.

I would have hoped he would have been on Cruz's hip after every series or at McAdoo's side getting some mental work in, but nothing. No emotion. Seemed odd. I hope he was just in a bad mood or something bc he seems so far away from playing its getting unbelievable


....just to throw salt in the wound I was crying for Benjamin , a taller , bigger WR who Eli loves, examples like Toomer, Plax,Nicks(when he played) Bennett at TE. Benjamin is playing ball in Carolina very well. I guess he want 'too raw' afterall.

"Not fiery enough"

Sound familiar?
Do you really want him "jumping up and down"?  
Victor in CT : 9/22/2014 10:03 am : link
He might re-injure his hammy! :-)
I thought I saw him smiling and congratulating a reciever...

embarrassed as a 1st round pick with a lot of hype who is not part of the team yet. Simple as that. maybe?
So you paid attention to Beckham Jr the whole game?  
Giantology : 9/22/2014 10:11 am : link
Cause there were at least a couple moments I saw him on screen with a smile, interacting with other players all while looking the complete opposite of dejected.
Sorry BillyBoy  
Giantology : 9/22/2014 10:12 am : link
But I think you're making this all up in your head
Fuck him..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/22/2014 10:13 am : link
let's cut him now before he costs us a game sulking.
personally  
UConn4523 : 9/22/2014 10:13 am : link
I think we should cut him. He's not that player I thought he would be. Awful body language on the bench sealed the deal.
Did Rich Houston shit out a kid?

I was watching the game 20 rows up  
Ten Ton Hammer : 9/22/2014 10:23 am : link
and watching one player very closely, so I could definitely read his mind.

There's a reason for what you saw on the sideline

That was damn funny. Even worse is that I'm sure BillyBoy read it and said 'EXACTLY, TTH gets it'.
He is not part of the team yet  
deadkurtrulz : 9/22/2014 10:38 am : link

The Giants are bringing him along slowly. In six weeks he will be permitted to give a high five. A month after that he will attempt his first chest bump. Building on that, the Mayo Clinic has hopes he will attempt a leaping hip bump by seasons end.

If all goes well he will be physically dominating opposing DB's be 2016.
Really  
JoefromPa : 9/22/2014 10:42 am : link
now we're concerned about body language of a player who isn't even dressed. The kid is a 1st round talent, a competitor, who wants to play.

He has been injured since March and as of yet has been able to get on the field.

He seems discouraged????????????????? You think!!!!!
Is she even on the team?

Did the PS players exhibit the requisite enthusiasm?
what i don't get, if we're for sure gonna activate him on Thursday  
SHO'NUFF : 9/22/2014 10:59 am : link
why not have him active yesterday for a few garbage time reps?
guy hasn't even made it through a single practice yet.....  
Simms11 : 9/22/2014 11:07 am : link
has yet to get a snap in any game, to include pre-season and is a competitor! You don't think he'd be dejected? Once he starts playing I'm sure you will see much enthusiasm.
Did you consider that mmayight just be his personality?

may/might*, either works.
Have no fear, Billyboy. OBJ hasn't been able to practice, yet...  
Klaatu : 9/22/2014 11:16 am : link
But he has been working with this guy to maximize his time on the bench:

OBJ learned from OBL.  
manh george : 9/22/2014 11:20 am : link
He doesn't want to get noticed unnecessarily.

I was at the game....  
Face Pepler : 9/22/2014 11:21 am : link
I'm calling bullshit.
My son pointed out OBJ on the sidelines and we both noticed he was into the game and smiling.
Not that it would mean anything if he wasn't.

I agree. He's probably pissed at himself. As a competitor, he's got to be pissed off he's not on field helping.
he was warming up

BillyBoy8384 : 9/22/2014 12:24 pm : link
yeah be happy our first RD pick was a absolute stretch and be biased....I didnt pay attention to him the whole game obviously but he didnt move from where he was sitting after TD's, TO's and yes I was watching bc I dont understand why he looked so disinterested.

Would like to see him getting in on the sideline meeting with WR's after the O comes off the field and what not. I never said cut him he sucks etc like you guys said ....you were putting words in my mouth, it really shows how frustrated you are with Beckham.....should have taken 19 yr old Benjamin is what really pissed you guys off
and FUCK YOU GIANTOLOGY

yeah I'm making it up in my head, right on. Retard only a mother could love.

Well..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 9/22/2014 12:28 pm : link
calling him a stretch throws pretty much what little bit of knowledge people might have THOUGHT you had, right out the fucking window.

As for me, when this thread was created, that ship of knowledge had already sailed. Far, far down the river.
This is dumber

Hey, guess who was the first person on the sideline to come up and congratulate Cruz on the TD. Yup, Beckham. Take a second to watch the sights and sounds video.

Guess you weren't watching that closely.
Here I saved you the trouble
