Barkley deletes all his Instagram posts except

Eric from BBI : Admin : 9/20/2020 9:01 pm
for one about Kobe Bryant.
if there is any kid that is going to work his azz off to come back...  
mphbullet36 : 9/20/2020 9:05 pm : link
even better and stronger it will be him. Still you don't take a running back that high...there are just too many variables and there shelf life is limited.

Also great O-lines and mediocre running backs > then great running backs and mediocre to poor offensive lines

What does that mean?

Not focusing on any bullshit except his recovery?
Who gives a fuck?

He's 23.

Whenever these new school dudes delete stuff like this,usually they're upset.

he's just blocking out all the distractions and going to focus on his recovery...he is upset he has a long road to recover and he needs to put his entire focus on that.

He doesn't want those posts he formerly created and posted on Instagram to still be there.

that's my best guess.
Get off of social media.

pissed at the Giants, for better or worse. Nothing but shitty line play and losing for two years and now he's hurt.
Pretty obvious  
UConn4523 : 9/20/2020 9:32 pm : link
to me. Everything before doesn’t matter. All that matters is working hard to get back as quickly as possible and to not take anything for granted.

Except for Kobe Bryant
He probably doesn't want to deal with jerks...

That’s my point - working hard to come back and not taking anything for granted.

Now that is about as dumb a post as can be...he was starting to get some holes and yardage and was hurt after a 6 or 8 yard run. So why would he be angry with the Giants?
in 20 years, I look forward to the college lit classes

where you analyze the meaning behind instagram and twitter accounts.

Professor: What exactly did Saquon mean by deleting all his social media posts?

Student: He was protesting the unfairness of having to run behind a shitty line and the parallels with today's social unrest?

Professor: Precisely!

Hook, line, and sinker.

“Focus on his recovery”

How stupid is that. He’ll be sitting around for the next month doing absolutely nothing. Real hard sitting on the couch watching Netflix all day.
His Football Life Has Been Taken Away From Him  
Jim in Tampa : 9/21/2020 7:47 am : link
At least temporarily.

My guess is that it's too painful for him to have to deal with any of that stuff right now. I doubt it's because he's laser-focused on his recovery.
Simple conclusion: Mamba Mentality  
KingBlue : 9/21/2020 8:13 am : link

The Mamba Mentality is about obsession. It is about prioritizing your professional goals over having a normal, balanced life. It is about playing without fear, mastering your craft and wanting not only to win, but to dominate.
Good

I think its a tribute

to when Kobe tore his Achilles and was back in like 7 months.
I saw that last night on the Post.  
Dinger : 9/21/2020 10:03 am : link
Kid seems to be level headed, but hell he's 23 and he's had to deal with some BS from the media about his draft position, his crappy OL a couple of head coaches and now his second September injury in a row this one seemingly major. He also seems passionate so I am taking it that he's just fing frustrated and will wait to let him tell us why he did it, though, I'm sure the media will let it die down and wont make a big deal of it.

This is the winner
He’s got a new picture up  
bigblue5611_2 : 9/21/2020 9:44 pm : link
Of himself being helped off the field and captioned “Gonna be a hell of a story...”

I think it’s safe to say he’s 1000% focused on getting back healthy and as strong/stronger than ever. No one would deserve it more either...great kid by all accounts, well spoken and a true competitor.
