Made the mistake of tuning in to Wfan for 10 minutes

OBJ_AllDay : 12/5/2016 1:53 pm
Fat Mike can't make it any more personal with Beckham. Utterly ridiculous at this point. Stirring up the idiot callers. Somehow the whole synopsis of the game is Beckham is a cancer and his issues with the refs. All this despite a horribly officiated game, a game in which Eli manning we were told by the beat writers was "furious" with the refs as well and had to talk to them several times. Of course no mention of that and the fact that they had legitimate gripes. Or that the fact that the Giants sucked yesterday as an O line unit. "Beckham would be mad if the Giants scored 40 and he wasn't involved". Seriously? That flies in stark contrast to everything we have ever seen or heard from both Beckham and his teammates. How many of us could keep our composure from forearms to the throat after a tackle? So sick of this narrative.

OBJ is a freak WR, the best the Giants have had in their history and he isn't done yet. He is much smarter than you give him credit for. He is a tough SOB who plays with an intensity we have not seen since Lawrence Taylor.

Refs are not going to give him much help after last year which is a shame. The refs have a job to do and that officiate evenly and fairly and they can't seem to get past the Carolina game. This is just another example of how piss poor the officiating is getting in the NFL. Part time, old officials for a professional sport which by design is to make games closer and teams more even by adhering to a salary cap. These games are coming down to one or 2 plays and the refs are having way to much influence on the outcome of these games.

Finally, Fat Mike is a blow hard. I can't stand how smug he is in all of this. He loves to hear himself talk as if he is the all knowing king of sports radio. I hope Eli cancels on him after this interview at 5pm.

"He is a tough SOB who plays with an intensity we have not seen since Lawrence Taylor." Ah yes, the LT comparisons. Makes sense since LT was so cheery when his friends Reggie White and Chris Doleman would sack Phil Simms. I remember the time he smiled after Simms was peeled off the turf after getting sacked by Dexter Manley. When questioned after the game, LT said, "I love watching him play. I love watching him celebrate. I love seeing him just smile, have fun."

LT then whipped and nae nae'd.

chuckydee9 : 12/5/2016 4:51 pm : link
are way more immature than OBJ.. Seriously there is nothing wrong with asking refs for a few calls...
Eli threw 39 times for 195 yards..
OBJ was targeted 16 times and produced 100 yards..
rest of the team were targeted 23 times and produced 95 yards between them..

OBJ >> Rest of our receivers combined

that is inspite of the fact that OBJ cannot threaten the teams deep anymore since the OL won't hold up and we have no running game or TE's that scare LBs.. So realistically the only reason we didn't look like a college team playing offense in the NFL was because of him.. Fat Mike and all the haters have no real evidence of anything else .. so they call him immature.. Lets get some real LT, a QB that plays to his past levels, a competent TE or RB in here.. Don't blame the loss on OBJ yesterday..

Sure, that'll solve all of our problems...

Let's just take our best player, easily one of the better players in the league, off our team & everything will come together.

Fuck off with OBJ needing to sweet talk the officials to get calls,  
Shirk130 : 12/6/2016 7:47 am : link
their job is to get the calls right. If they don't, they won't be refs for long. Fans complaining about OBJ are the same fans who blame Melo for all that is wrong with the Knicks, and are the same that blamed Ewing for not winning a championship. They would be perfect writing for the trash that is the Daily News.

in this case i am not listenkng to anything when it comes to giants, as soon as the host starts talking giants i am turning it off...

all it is going to be is about how the cowboys are going to murder the giants, i actually hope the giants players watch, because they are going to get zero respect going into this game
People wonder..

why fans get labeled as stupid.

You don't have to wonder with fucksticks like this:

I'm over it. I'm over it so much I think the Giants should release him. And I'm not the one crying and cursing.


By the way - the people pissed he was yukking it up over Brown - were they also pissed when he played catch with Dez before the Cowboys game?

Or how does that work? Since we won, it is OK, but Cowboy fans should be pissed at Dez and want him released?

What are the rules regarding complete and moronic overreactions?
there are some really, REALLY dumb assholes on this board

Since Beckham has actually been fined this year for celebrating his teammates accomplishments too much (e.g. Cruz's first TD back)



He was also pretty pumped about Antonio Brown's TD yesterday.



Sorry but I couldn't disagree more. I don't think he was pumped or smiling because AB scored. I think it was at his celebration/dance he got a kick out of or even a bit of a nervous energy type of thing. Like ok, you got one now it's my turn.

There's no way I think he was actually happy AB scored.



You're a complete fucking idiot if you really believe that....

My point is your a fucking idiot if you think there's anything similar between LT and this whiny little cunt... LT went out and single-handedly won games... He took his frustrations out on QB's, he didn't go crying to the refs and the media.

Francesa is 100% right.

Beckham single handedly has won games for the Giants this season despite being consistently double and triple teamed.
Comparing to Taylor is just comical  
Giants2012 : 12/6/2016 4:14 pm : link
Compare the kid to a WR at least. Stop with the ridiculous Taylor comparisons as there is nothing revolutionary about how defense is now played b/c of Beckham whereas the entire league changed offensively b/c of Taylor.

Com'on people. Some don't even consider him the best WR in the league whereas Taylor was far and away the most disruptive force the league had seen. Nobody knew what to do.
Beckham issues  
gmenatlarge : 12/7/2016 7:25 am : link
While I wasn't crazy about him on the sideline during Brown's TD, what bothered me was his on-field mistake of continuing to fight for yardage when it was evident it wasn't there. He lost 6-7 yards at a critical point turning a short yardage situation into 3rd and long, not smart! In addition he needs to work the refs with some intelligence and not just whine, he should be creating PI's on the D not getting them called on himself, he's too good for that.
Tried to explain my opinion at the time but  
SethFromAstoria : 12/7/2016 8:39 am : link
I just wanted to quickly get pissed and not think about it anymore. Someone smart already said that this is why many athletes don't want to play here. I think its true but I think the main result is that it's harder to go through the process of winning championships here.

Even though some people can't get past the image of Beckham making a jackass of himself against the Panthers in the blessed Giants uniform, what strikes me is how many Giants fans didn't defend him because he's loud. This young kid had never even had a bad word written about his work ethic nor his effort nor his teammates liking him. Suddenly he was a me first player because a loudmouth who couldn't compete on the field had to find a way to take him off his game. From that point forward you look at it from his perspective and its been a consistent attempt to make him a lazy, selfish, me first "typical" athlete.

Meanwhile all he does is work his ass off, teammates can't answer the question enough times: "is he a problem???" "No we love Odell and he works as hard as anyone". But no the media can't tolerate that. I posted an example the other day and it summed it up. Brown was shut down by our d, had 6 catches for 55 yards and a td where i think he was out of bounds but ok. Odell was triple teamed and interfered with 10 times but had 10 catches on 16 targets and 100 yards.

What did the media focus on? Anyone think he was clapping and smiling because he was laughing at how Brown was shut down but got a TD and he was all over the field but couldn't get a flag, nor a td? Did anyone discuss his more productive day while ELi had no RB rushing 29 times, no TE catching 130 yards worth. People saying he shouldnt complain for flags? Seriously? WHat WR does;t ask for flags? What star WR gets called for offensive PI on one on one coverage when hes being held up the field? This unstoppable pass-catching machine needs to foul a CB instead of just beating him for a ball? This WR who had 10 catches and could have had 15 got how many calls?

The personal agenda shit is a disgrace and it takes away from a WR who has done record breaking things. Because he has a wild haircut and because he is intense on the field? Something really messed up about it all.
All you need to know..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 12/7/2016 8:47 am : link
about the respect the refs give Beckham was on that OPI flag. While even jackasses like TO, Ochocinco and Irvin were allowed to push off at will, Beckham gets called for interference on a play where he is being grabbed 3/4th of the route.

And being that this was the same crew that did the Carolina game last year - you can bet there is bias there and they shouldn't be allowed to work another Giants game, plain and simple.

When you hold a player to a higher standard, it is almost always the "star player" standard where they get away with things. Beckham gets away with nothing and actually gets called for things he doesn't do.

It is absolutely absurd.
I thought that was a shit call when I saw the 1st angle. Afetr  
Victor in CT : 12/7/2016 9:07 am : link
seeing the replay from the back side, I still thought it was wrong, but I could understand what the official.

1 superstar player in my lifetime was held, literally and figuratively, to a higher standard: Lawrence Taylor. Held, mugged on EVERY play. IF they could get their hands on him that is.
understand what the official SAW.
