Carolina Panthers’ Marcus Ball Likens Giants’ Brad Wing to Lying “Ex-Girlfriend”
“I am blessed and privileged to play the game I love, and I will do all I can to carry myself in a way that honours the game, the National Football League, my team, my coaches, all my fans and my family moving forward”.
NY (6-8) will be eliminated if Washington (7-7) beats Philadelphia (6-8) on Saturday night.
Lets start off by saying last Sunday was one of the most embarrassing performances I have ever witnessed in organized athletics, bar none.
Thrash is jointly appointed by the National Football League and the NFLPA to hear appeals of on-field player discipline.
“I appealed my suspension because it is a right granted to all players under the NFL’s CBA”, Beckham said Wednesday on Twitter, “and because I owe it to my teammates to do everything I can to be on the field this week”.
Beckham certainly was wrong, and we’ve said he was wrong from day one. I realize some of the Panthers pregame antics with a baseball bat and possible “homophobic slurs” may have set Beckham off, but that is no excuse for what he did. “I know a lot of responsibility holds on this receiver corps with him being out, so we have to make sure we are on the same page and know what we are going and be ready to have a big game”. “That’s probably the best way I can say it. He felt bad”. He caught 207 passes for 2,196 yards and 15 touchdowns at Richmond. They want to be proud of us, and proud of players like me who represent their team. “Obviously with that situation, to be honest with you, there wasn’t any indication that was coming”. That is good news for Panthers practice squad player Marcus Ball who was seen confronting and exchanging words with Beckham prior to the game. He returned for two second-half series before sitting out the rest of the game, finishing with 18 carries for 63 yards.
And if Coughlin has his way, everyone will witness a Giants team that still has plenty of fight left, even if its fighting-mad receiving star isn’t anywhere near the TCA Bank Stadium turf. And do it for our own personal pride and the pride of the New York Giants.
It wasn’t until after the game that Wing considered everything that happened and began to feel the pre-game problems played a role in how Beckham acted during the game.
Although Bridgewater is getting more comfortable in the offense, the Vikings are still a run-first team. The NFL has shown inconsistency in the past with how hard it tries to investigate allegations of misconduct, sometimes undertaking lengthy investigations and other times seeming more interested in sweeping allegations under the rug.
“The crew was doing a really tough job of trying to keep the game under control”, said Blandino.
He faces a Giants defense that allowed 171 rushing yards to the Panthers and is yielding 5.9 yards per attempt over the last two weeks.
