@MrWright

Not true. I have a very successful career. Well educated with a PhD, have several LLCs in real estate, club industry, and also an iOS programming business. I get paid to use my mind not to sell my health in a gladiatorial event, so I don’t understand his boasting. In fact, he is self projecting his misery! I love my career and life— I pay $3000 a year for season tickets so I can sit outside the lines…. Winning??

And I’m sure most of you clowns chiming in didn’t even read what he actually said nor the context. As an avid Giants fan who goes to the stadium frequently, it is embarrassing to watch how we have no home field advantage anymore, because the people in the lower level are almost all limpwrists who aren’t from here and just go to the games as “something to do”. The REAL Giants fans are mostly priced out or have to sit in the upper 300 level, hence why the stadium is so quiet and fair-weathered when the Giants are at home. I 100% agree with him, and those who are butt-hurt over his comments are the very people he’s talking about.

It’s egotistical comments like these that make me glad for what awaits ex-NFL players (especially running backs) after the field: chronic encephalopathy, depression, inflated alimony, and drug abuse. The inflated sense of self-worth and importance they accumulate is astonishing.
—————–

So let me get this straight, you’re butt-hurt, bitter because he makes more in one season than you will in 20 years working a job that you hate, hence the other main reason why you’re miserable… all because his darts hit the target (people like you with this mindset)?

And wishing those maladies on someone because you’re spiteful of their ability to earn a king’s ransom for playing a game that you never excelled it? You’re any better than he?

Thou doth protest (too) much.

What a total piece of $hit.

Interesting another Eagles fan chimes in. So Mr. Critical what does that make Vick?

BJ never hurt anyone or anything outside of football, he just talks A LOT. And yes I wish he would shut his mouth.

BUTTT…

It’s not like he ever, lets just say and I’m just throwing this out there, ran an illegal dog fighting ring while torturing and killing dogs.

Jacobs is a beast that you would like to have on your team. He’s big and he’s tough. He’s also a SB champion.

all you brave souls out there in the safety of cyberland; say what you will about Jacobs, but at least he has the balls to stand up and say it in public.

———————————————————
Just because you can say something, doesn’t mean you should.
By trying to belittle some fans he makes himself seem small. It also affects his ability to get endorsements.

Oh puleez, gimme a break! Jacobs has been little more than an average, mediocre, under-achieving RB who beats his chest and blows his own horn when he has the occasional good game.

Jacobs is entitled to his opinion, although he does fly off the handle and do ridiculous things at times.

It’s New York. It goes without saying that your fans are miserable. If I had to deal with 25 million annoying a-holes on a daily basis, I’d be miserable too. Just wait until the Wanks get sent packing by Cy Young winner Justin Verlander and the Tigers. You’ll be able to hear the cries in San Diego.

At least wehn Lebron says this kind of stuff, he’s the starter and one of the best PF’s in the league. Jacobs isn’t even the best RB on his team.

White people are always messing stuff up! Tiki never said he was flabbergasted. Go back and re-read the article. Peter King passed that on and you clowns ran with it! Please stop wearing stuff out people. Things are no longer funny once they are said 298392 x’s.

Please Give this post a thumbs down if you are the avg. lame white guy who thinks it’s funny to make; Plaxico jail jokes. Tiki flabbergasted jokes. Vick dog jokes. Big Ben sexual assault jokes.

========================
What kind of a chump attacks a whole race of people to stand up for Tiki? Probably Tiki himself… Loser move dude.

Actually, grammatically, he’s incorrect…
if Jacobs states he “couldn’t” care less, means he IS caring “more” that people are haters…hmmm, sounds like he needs an intervention…”Okay Jacobs, Coughlin wants you in his office at 7:45am sharp tomorrow morning for English Grammar 101 Class”

couldn’t = could not, therefore he could not have cared any less.

what grade are philthy fans quitting school these days?

Sorry, Brandon, but it’s hard to believe in a team that, until last week(and including the pre-season) looked like a steaming pile of crap. I believe in results, not your hype. As much as I thoroughly enjoyed the hell out of the Eagles game last week, I’m not sold on this team going anywhere better than 8-8, and I attrbute that to Jerry Reese not doing jack *** in the FA period.

———————————————————–
Wrong. But what did we expect from an Eagles fan.
The phrase “couldn’t care less” is used correctly in this context. It means, literally, that there is no amount less that he could care, because he does not care at all. It really does not take a Master of the English language to grasp that one. Time to take those Philly grade schools to task.

With all of the whining and screaming that Brandon Jacobs does, I’m pretty sure he’s the one living a miserable life. Fame and money isn’t everything, and this guy is strong evidence of that.

——————————————

He is a huge family guy that gives back to the community in a big way. Money and fame mean nothing to him, in fact he restructured of his contract to bring back Ahmad. He is a very loyal guy that is very vocal, sometimes that comes off as arrogance, but I can promise you it is the last thing he is. He is one of the few guys left in the league with a sense of value, community, and responsibility.

In any event you probably shouldn’t assume anything about a person unless you actually know them personally and the effect the have on others’ lives.

In my experience it’s usually those that finds faults in others that have the greatest faults in themselves. Before you belittle others remember you are no where near perfect.

Please keep predicting us to be dead last in the division. And please keep putting the Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins ahead of us in every Power Rankings nonsense.

Oh, and the Jets, too.

The Redskins beat the Giants. Why wouldn’t they deserve to be ranked ahead of them?

And stop saying “us” like you are on the team.

Let’s see, unemployment rate’s still around 9. Poverty is about 15% now, right? And those numbers tend to understate reality, which runs roughly double what the stats say. So yeah, this multi-millionaire looking down his lorgnette at the Miserable People has a view that run straight along the lines of the French noblesse of the 19th c. and their scorn for “Les Miserables.”

He might as well have added, “let them eat cake…”
