New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. lost his appeal and will serve his one game suspension this Sunday. There were some things on the other side, too, and I think both parties were involved. They want to be proud of us, and proud of players like me who represent their team.

Iran claims groups linked to IS are at Riyadh talks
The talks in Saudi Arabia resulted from a plan agreed to last month by 20 world powers meeting in Vienna. More than 100 representatives from Syria’s political and armed factions attended the meeting in Riyadh .
Beckham also apologized to the kids who look up to him, and to the parents who have to explain to their kids why Beckham acted the way he did. This is about my behavior, and I am responsible for my behavior.

A further 12 casualties described as “walking wounded” were treated by the ambulance service at a nearby triage centre. Another man and a woman were taken to a minor injuries unit and four people were treated and discharged at the scene.
An altercation with Ball was caught on video, but clearly wasn’t an excuse for Beckham conducting himself so wildly during the game. “He was provoked, he was out of control, he was wrong, there’s no doubt about it”.
Peterson picked as lone Vikings rep for Pro Bowl
He’s shown no ill-effects in the aftermath of his recovery, snagging two interceptions and making or assisting 58 total tackles. Most of all Thomas Davis, who finally makes the ProBowl after three very deserving seasons and an incredible career.
Just after the news of his suspension broke, Beckham tweeted an apology for his actions, saying he “dropped the ball on sportsmanship”.
As most players do, Beckham filed an appeal to the NFL’s decision.
Every game, all season I owe Coach Coughlin, our coaches and my teammates an apology. How I conduct myself is my responsibility.
“Everyone is preoccupied with… the fact that to depict this as Odell Beckham being wrong, and the only one wrong, is not right”, Coughlin said. Finally, Odell apologized to his coach and teammates for letting them down. Thrash’s position is paid equally by the National Football League and players association.
Beckham also had a run-in with a Panthers player before the game, and Giants punter Brad Wing said Beckham was threatened by an unidentified bat-wielding man dressed in Panthers sweats during warmups.
The punishment for Carolina defensive back Josh Norman is in.
Odell Beckham told Michael Irvin that the Carolina Panthers were not the first team to taunt him with gay slurs, according to the New York Daily News.
Ball, holding a baseball bat at midfield, stared at Beckham and then got into an argument with the receiver. That’s the truth of the matter, so to avoid the situation and set of circumstances, let’s just eliminate it. So that’s what we’re going to do. “The officials, if you asked them, they would agree after looking at the tape that ejections were warranted”, Blandino said.
Panthers cornerback Norman was fined a combined $26,044 after a series of physical confrontations with Beckham Jr. He was fined $8,681 for a face mask and another $17,363 for striking his opponent (presumably Beckham) in the head.

In hindsight, Wing said Beckham’s actions during the game probably were influenced by the pre-game run-in with the unidentified man, who Wing believed was a practice squad player.
