Though, I do get the sentiment here. People paid good money for the VIP package to see him. He deserves criticism if he just disregarded the event, all I'm saying is let's wait to see what the reason is.

I agree, but i'd still like to see what the reason was and whether they get their money back.
Still, whatever this guy does short of being a Eagle Scout results in Eric having to wear riot gear.
One hundred percent of the proceeds of the silent auction
On the other hand, paying that much money to shake some dudes hand and get his autograph is...what's the word...weird and sad? Yeah, kinda weird and sorta sad.
There are no winners here. Just losers. Petulant athlete or creepy collector man-child, losers one and all.
RE: unless he had some real problem or family issue if course, but if
thats the case he should at least notify the organizers or have the Giants do it.
Agree. You can't be the least bit critical of anyone under Giants' contract here, though. It's weird...and creepy. And this coming from someone who defended Beckham all through out the on field stuff, including the Norman stuff (and I will continue to).
i am not going to believe anything that comes out of francesas mouth

Being critical without facts, especially when trying to judge someone's character, is a character flaw. This thread has given us "trade him" and "he needs mental help" all while not knowing anything other than what a disgruntled radio show host says.
If you don't want to do the event don't lend your name to it. Period. If you do then get your act together and be there. Barring a true emergency there is no excuse.
To think the Giants will be better off without this guy, he simply is all about himself and nothing else, and that is a cancer. Go get another wideout in this draft, another next season and fuck this choker.

there is clearly a pattern here with him. I hope it improves and he grows up some, but I'm not holding my breath.

his teammates would disagree with you, all of whom say he is one of the hardest workers on the team...
how is he a choker? because he had a bad game in the playoffs?
on the brighter side, Perkins was a big hit here at the Dick's
were emailed Friday that Odell will not be attending & full refunds are offered
So it was not a last minute no show
LMAO, proof once again that this board's greatest national pastime is jumping to conclusions. I'm sure no one is backing down from their "trade him!" talks, because for some reason, THAT makes them look foolish.

you think francesa mentioned the full refunds? i am going to guess no
with needing to get a player's autograph or have some meaningless conversation.
I guess the kids are into it and that's fine to a point. But for adults to get all upset about this kind of stuff strikes me as weird. No offense, but I just don't get it. At all.

Last year, Chris Mullen was at a Mets game, sitting two rows in front of me. There were people (adults and kids) walking up to him and shook his hands and took selfies with him. Another guy who sat behind him took a cellphone picture of the back of his head.

Yeah, great I guess. I just don't get it. They're just people who play a game yet I see grown men clamor for a second or two of their time or an illegible signature. It's weird.

I'm not talking about the 1 or 2 posts like that. I'm talking about the people who never say anything even resembling constructive criticism about Giants' employees. There are more of them and they are cringe-worthy, as well.

That's me sometimes and its because I find myself as a fan having only the information the media gives me and using that to flame away at a personnel decision or any other scenario seems like a waste of time.
A good chance he wouldnt attend in the first place and they used his name anyway just to sell more tickets in case he did show. Its just so easy to blame it on Beckham.
So weird.

Not anyone here. Possibly the fans he screwed out of their money, though..
according to the flyer fans had to pay for a vip package and it sounds like they would get their aitograph in the mail..
sounds like the only thing he skipped the was the q and a with francesa..
I hope that's true, but I don't know. They were expecting to see him there, I'm pretty sure..
he accepted the invite, he should have been there
I'm not upset. I'm simply giving my opinion.

trade him. AP beats his kid, sign him.

they probably did, you really think francesa is going to tell the reason? he just wants to kill beckham every chance he can get

a caller said you have to give beckham credit for playing hurt, francesa responded saying he was not hurt
I hope I am wrong...I really do.
I hope you're right.
Subjectively I hope he has a huge year in 2017 and Reese has the good sense to make a Herschel Walker trade to set up the post-Eli era.

He's done this numerous times, no showing for things he got paid to do already. This has nothing to do with Francesa, he deserves to be ripped for it.

36 hours before an event when it's been planned for a couple months absolutely is a last second no show.
