I say that because he comes across as having the mindset of an angst ridden 15 year old. I dont think he wants to offend people. I think he cares a whole lot about people thinking he is a cool trend setter. He likes being a celebrity. Yet his coaches allow it. That seems to be the climate in Cleveland. Yeah, real cool...I guess in a superficial way. Edited September 10, 2019 by Rocket94

He is definitely a guy the others should be looking up to. They said yesterday it looked like he told Murray to get him the ball and they both carried the Cards back into the game in the 4th Guys like OBJ and Brown would have probably been off getting prepped for post game interviews or sulking that they weren't getting more throws instead of taking leadership... 1

Motorsports drivers never wear a watch while driving (or at least should not) for this reason. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degloving GAAAAHHHHHH NO NO NO PLEASE GOD NO I was worried about the watch stripping skin off of OTHER players, but then you had to go and remind me of the horrors of...blech...degloving... 1
ddaryl Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 I will never understand Jewelry. Obscene money for shiny metal and sparkly rocks that somehow correlate with a persons self worth. to each their own,..... but I find it to be such a turn off. what I really don't understand is why anyone on the planet would wear a $250k watch while playing in an NFL football game.

SoCal Deek Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 When my daughter played high level soccer, the refs used to check all of the players for bracelets, etc knowing that someone could easily lose a finger getting it caught in such jewelry...and there is far less contact in soccer. It would seem to me that the Players Association would put a stop to this stuff. In fact, I noticed that Darnold was wearing at least a couple of those rubber 'in memory of' bracelets during the game yesterday. I can just image the reaction if a D Lineman were to get his finger caught in those things while reaching for a sack!

I like watches, and I have a few newfangled, bluetooth ones (Fitbit Smartwatch, Samsung Gear S3, Garmin), as well as about 35 "regular" watches. They range in cost from $50 to $500. I mean, do I need any of them? Probably not....but you can probably say that for about 50% of the stuff I own. LOL
stosh64 Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 OBJ says he will not take it off. Quote "I'll still be wearing it," Beckham said Tuesday, per ESPN. "The same way I wear it every day I go to practice, when I go here, I go there, been wearing it. Take a shower with it on. It's just on me." Quote "If anybody else would've worn the watch, if it was a $20 watch, it wouldn't been no problem," he said. "That's just my life. If it ain't this, it's something else. If it wasn't the watch, it would've been the way I'd tied my shoes." Poor persecuted OBJ. SMH nfl.com
