I’m not a big football fan, and never watched it much anyway...so ignoring them won’t be hard for me.

I just wonder how long owners can keep delving out all those million dollar paydays with the crowds, and the advertisers, dropping out.

“Odell Beckham Jr., fresh off signing a five-year, $95 million contract extension”

This dude can seriously go get fooked with his whining.

Aaron Rodgers is also an NFL Miscreant as far as I am concerned. This is not a race issue and never has been.

Professional Athletes are not Heroes and have not been for decades if they ever were.

He will probably do someone stupid like sustain an injury off the field.

He will be sidelined and the Giant organization will get stuck for $95,000,000.00. A total win-win.

He’s right about how black athletes are treated differently. Just completely wrong on the details. Maybe Odell could talk to Jordy Nelson, Chris Hogan, Brian Hartline, Zach Zenner, Jeff Janis and countless other WHITE wide receivers and running backs to get an idea of how differently white skill athletes are treated. Why do the great white players all have the same story... Not recruited, Undrafted, burued on depth charts despite performance?! Why was the arguably greatest defensive player in history (JJ Watt) not recruited by any colleges!!!???? Spare me your BS, Odell.

Odell, is wrong about that ... NFL players are more like circus performers than zoo animals

95 mil? If offered it I would live like a zoo animal for a year or two for that. I am not kidding.

Yep, I would tell that overpaid crybaby that sympathy is in the dictionary between Shi’ite and syphilis.
