Odell Beckham Jr. was born to play here. He was born for this stage.
If you could buy one ticket to watch anyone in professional sports in this town, who would you want to spend your money on — Gary Sanchez … Yoenis Cespedes … Noah Syndergaard … Kristaps Porzingis … Henrik Lundqvist … John Tavares … or Odell Beckham Jr.?
Willie Mays, cap flying, racing down a flyball with a basket catch … Jackie Robinson on the basepaths, stealing home on Yogi in the World Series … Lawrence Taylor storming around the edge, eating quarterbacks in the backfield … Joe Namath, rifling bullets from that quick release … Beckham has much more to do to join riveting Hall of Fame company like that, but in the meantime, I’d submit that the young Jose Reyes legging out a triple used to take our breath away the way Beckham now does with a football in his hands.
