Snacks not happy with Jordan Raanan

EddieNYG : 5/12/2018 4:10 pm
Jordan tweets:
@JordanRaanan

Found it interesting that D-lineman B.J. Hill (third-round pick) hadn't heard or spoken to any defensive veterans yet. Leadership was a problem last year on that defense. #Giants

@snacks

Youre reaching Jordan. Keep it up though...just stay away from me

Jordan is correct here

Snacks is more interested in where he is ranked in the top 100 players. Was he not the same dude who said last year he would not be a leader of a group that we had last year.?

Bullshit...good for Snacks, gimme a break.
Jordan is a hack  
RobCarpenter : 5/12/2018 4:17 pm : link
Hes in Pat Leonard territory. All he does now is try to stir up shit.
Media is just stirring things up.....  
George from PA : 5/12/2018 4:18 pm : link
The locker room was toxic last year....which I blame on McAdoo....not the lack of leadership.

Snacks seems like a leader by the way he plays....not a vocal leader.....hopefully, olgetree can fill in the role of a vocal leader
So none of you think it odd that...  
Milton : 5/12/2018 4:22 pm : link
...nobody on the DL reached out to the rookie DL?

Last year Harrison was a vocal participant in the offseason program who said he was there not because he needed the work, but to set an example for the younger players as a leader. Why such a change of heart from him? I have no idea.
Yet When any media reports that Eli was first to text or call a rookie  
NYSports1 : 5/12/2018 4:24 pm : link
These BBI fangirls claim Eli is such a great role model and leader without the rah rah. But no defensive player does that and media stirring shit up? Once again was SNACKS not the one that said last year he would not be a leader for that team?

Bruh I know you already know this and weve talk about it but keep doing what you do and dont let ppl that have no clue about how you move in that locker room waste your time
It's not just the defense.  
Dave in Hoboken : 5/12/2018 4:36 pm : link
The entire team has lacked leadership from the players.
Maybe the defensive captains should have reached out to him  
George from PA : 5/12/2018 4:37 pm : link
But comparing anyone to Eli is not fair.

Eli is senior spokesman....DeOssie on special teams.....but Collins is closest person on Defense.....hopefully Olgetree can become a leader.

Not sure whats interesting about that?  
T-Bone : 5/12/2018 4:49 pm : link
Maybe theyre waiting to meet them in person?

Maybe they havent had a chance to run down his number?

What does not reaching out to a rookie within the first few weeks of his being on the team have to do with leadership?

If someone from the defense HAD reached out, would that have been interesting? If so, why?
As usual

the media and BBI make up what they want to fit a narrative. Why the fuck does anyone care or take this stuff seriously?

It explains nothing. Not saying it isn't the reason, but if we're going to speculate there could be a million different reasons that we are clueless about. It's not like Snacks is the only one on the 90 man roster that has children. Or the only one that has any kind of personal issue that we are either aware of or not aware of.

So to say that he may have a legitimate reason is fair, but to try to speculate on what it is or say that having a child is a legitimate reason (whether it's a newborn or a ten-year old that may be dealing with a serious issue requiring parental attention) is just throwing spaghetti against the wall and hardly "explains a lot." If you're gonna take that approach, why bother questioning any of the players on anything, you never know what's going on in their personal life.

Hadnt see you post in a week or two. Here you are again bringing the awful with every post.

Some guys lead some guys play at an elite level.
Leadership is bullshit.  
section125 : 5/12/2018 4:56 pm : link
You have a coaching staff, they are the leaders. Certain players will take up the slack. Some guys just want to play and do their job. Some guys are the players gravitate toward, vocal or not.

Fans can whine, cry, scream or moan about needing leaders, but they appear out of nowhere. We and the press do not have a clue as to who the leaders are. But I can guarantee a handful will be "selected" but when it happens is up to the players.

Leadership on defense  
MookGiants : 5/12/2018 5:14 pm : link
absolutely was a problem last year. Multiple guys quit, and that is a reflection of leadership on the team and more specifically the defense, and it certainly wasnt all McAdoo. I didnt see many guys on offense quit, but there were more than a few on defense who should be embarrassed that they collected a paycheck for their effort some weeks

Dont know why "disingenuous" went in there. Total typing fail. Should read:

I dont think anybody is arguing that. I think people are arguing that it is an overreaction by Jordan to point out that a rookie hadnt heard from any vets when hes been up here for less than 48 hours.
and maybe  
MookGiants : 5/12/2018 5:18 pm : link
instead of always worrying what the media is saying about him and taking everything they say personally he should be worrying about the sack of shit effort a lot of his teammates gave last year. Not saying he was one of them by any means but a team with strong leadership does not have that happen. If people around here don't think leadership is an issue with this group of players they are absolutely lost. No one holds anyone accountable.

Sure it's an overreaction. But Snacks looks like a fool getting caught up in any of it. And his "threats" are quite hilarious and pathetic at the same time. He is a hell of a player and always plays hard, but he should stop giving a shit what the media says. They have a job to do and unfortunately part of that seems to be shit stirring, the way Snacks acts you would think the media is attacking his family sometimes, it's quite sad.

Never said he was, but it reflects poorly on the leadership of the team when many players quit. He's supposed to be a leader of this team and when a lot of guys quit it reflects poorly on him as a leader and all of the other "leaders" of the team
He should look at Garafolo...

Yeah, Ill bet youd love some little weasel loud mouth from outside your office running his mouth publicly about what a shit job youve done of leadersip too, huh? You think Snacks quit? Since hes the topic of the post, lets focus on him. You can all sit on your little couches eating cheese puffs and drinking whatever shit beer you think is awesome and accuse people of quitting all you want. Its whats great about the internet. No repercussions. But Jordan has to try to go in to that lockeroom at some point and questioning a mans heart is a good way to get his ass kicked when he does. Im surprised he hasnt already to be honest

Snacks has already said that he didn't want to be a captain last year because he knew it was going to be a bad year. If anything, he is the opposite of a leader. He gets mad when people say we didn't have leadership but he, himself, stated that he really isn't a leader so what is the problem? If he takes offense to it then he should do something about it other than going after people in the media. Not everybody is a leader and that is fine but you cannot have it both ways.
Harrison  
MookGiants : 5/12/2018 5:28 pm : link
also looked like a fool in that exchange with Carl Banks last year.

He seems to care a lot about what others on the outside think when those people don't matter, but doesn't seem to care enough to be a true leader on this team, even saying before that he is not a leader.

If this team had strong leadership on defense, you would not have seen guys quit the way they did last year. Harrison is a good player but I would not consider him a leader by any stretch. Instead of worrying about what people are saying about him and the leadership on the team on twitter, he should be worried about how many guys he's playing with that quit last year and would be better served to call those guys out on twitter rather than calling out guys like Raanan and Banks.

I dont like Raanan by any stretch, but Harrison looks like a fool every time he gets butt hurt on twitter over what the media says. Don't even get me started on the top 100 thing
