Odell Thinking The 'Stars Aligned' For The Browns Because Of A Tattoo He Has Is The Most Asinine And On Brand Thing Of All Time

[Post] - “I have a tattoo that has a barcode, and it says, in this order, ‘Two thousand, a hundred and twenty.’ And it really stood for 2,000 yards, 100 receptions and 20 touchdowns,” Beckham said on CBS, via the Akron Beacon Journal. “But it starts and ends with 20 and 20, and I had been talking about 2020 for so long. It’s just like all the stars have aligned.”

Would I defend this if Odell was still a Giant? I'd go get the same tattoo out of unity to see another Super Bowl. 100%, without question. Just a random barcode with some numbers. Sign me up to be happy during the NFL season instead of watching the Giants finding new ways to lose week after week. But Odell isn't a Giant anymore and I have way too many asshole Browns fans to be happy for them. 

This is the most asinine thought process of all time, but it's also the most on brand shit ever for Odell. If there's one person who thinks their team's success is somehow tied to fate of a tattoo it's Odell. I can absolutely see him walking into the locker room after the Browns beat the Colts and explaining to Baker how it's not the improved offensive line or commitment to running the ball or getting Baker in the right spots on the roll outs/quick throws. Nope. It's the tattoo. All about a barcode by Lake Erie apparently. 

But this is what you get with Odell. Now, hes certainly not the first wide receiver diva and he wont be the last. There have been a ton of assholes to play this position that have caught a ton of balls. The difference with him is when things are good, he's great. When shit goes bad, he's fighting kicking nets, he's fighting defensive backs, he's calling people out and just being a genuine asshole. Wonder if there's a tattoo for that? 

Now if you excuse me, I'm booking an appointment for a similar tattoo and saying it's going to be for pageviews. Next stop the moon.
