    Yes. Odell was better than Norman

    I meant the foolishness about Beckham's actions being understandable.

    Steve Young has returned from Concussionville. Really good hot take on Cam.

    New reports that Norman and Panthers used homophobic slurs against OBJ. If he is gay, does that make his response understandable?

    Check out Beckham's touchdown to tie the game, and tell me with a straight face he makes the catch without pushing off at the last second to get separation.

    I think Nornan got the best of him overall but didn't see much on that play.

    But none of us of any age have ever seen them both make the playoffs in the same year. I like that the Chiefs have been emulating the Royals, except for the part where they took late September off.

    Nothing he could have said makes Beckham's behavior acceptable, fanboy. It wasn't one violent reaction. It was a series of violent acts, capped off by vicious helmet-to-helmet shot.

    When did this become a political thread? Lots of stupidity. Norman got in Beckham's head, which affected his play for much of the game and prompted him to act about as unprofessional as an NFL player can on the field. That shot he took on Norman had the potential to significantly injure him. He was a jackass, and there is no defending him.

    An apt comparison. We've got fanboyism on the political threads, too. The only question is which posters are being fanboys and that tends to be very subjective.

    yab seems to be the only one defending Beckham. I agree that the shot he took at Norman was inexcusable and could have caused very serious injury.
