The 12th Dimension- September Mourn
The Giant Insider|October 15, 2017

Odell Beckham Jr. is a once in a generation type of talent who, based on his sheer athletic ability, should be mentioned in the same breath as Lawrence Taylor, Jim Brown, and Jerry Rice. But his “me-first” attitude is destroying any and all credibility that this franchise has left.

The 12th Dimension- September Mourn

Feathered Helmet week is always a stressful time in my house. But this year, it was something much, much more. The week began with my daughter Audrey not making the “good” basketball team at her grammar school. It’s usually a tough conversation to have with a child but she’s a pretty tough kid who can handle disappointment. After all, we’re Giants fans living on the cusp of sub-humanity (Feathered Helmet-ville). It was the kind of week where you say to yourself, “Okay, where’s the camera?
