What is REALLY wrong with Odell Beckham?

Recommended Posts

We've heard the rumors that Panthers players were making anti-gay remarks at Odell Beckham on Sunday.  If true, I don't agree with that.  But his emotional game would make a lot more sense if he actually IS gay.  Clearly Beckham has the maturity of a 9 year old. We all remember the girl or boy that picked on you in school, but really deep down it was because they were a confused child wrestling with early sexual urges. People don't CONTINUE to act like he did on Sunday unless there is something deeply troubling within that person.  

I hope whatever he's going through, he gets the help he needs.  The Giants don't look like they even recognize he's a troubled young man and are going so far as to enable his behavior.  Gay or not, let's hope he turns it around. Josh Norman won't be the first player to get in his head, and he could seriously injure someone or himself if he continues down this path.

I'm just going to speak my mind.... I have male friends who are gay, a few of them in the medical profession. In my experience thus far, gay males are about the most mentally unstable people you kind find in a categorical bracket. I don't know nor do I really care if ODB is gay, but he clearly is not right mentally

The geniuses tend to be the craziest.  Beckham is one of the most physically talented players to ever play in the NFL.  But yes, he really isn't right in the head.  Just speculation on the gay thing.  It could be so many things, but one thing is certain, it's something.

I hope our players didn't use Gay slurs towards him but if they did it's still not enough to act the way he acted. You get back at them by catching that touchdown and dancing in the end zone, not cheap shots. 

I also think many young people today use Gay slurs and they aren't even using them in the context of homosexuality. Louis CK does a whole bit on it. I wouldn't witch hunt our players as bigots though. It's a bigger issue than one or two players in the NFL.

OBJ'S sexuality should have NOTHING to do with this conversation.  Be better than that Panthernation

It does if it might explain why he freaked the fug out if our players were indeed saying slurs in pregame. I don't think some people realize the extent of how mentally unstable that dude was on Sunday. That was fuging insane. 

 

Some of the posters in here are out of line saying that if he is indeed gay it would explain why he was so emotional or that gay ppl are mentally unstable because all gay ppl are the same. That's ridiculous. Obj is a nutcase tho

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
