Brandon Jacobs To Media: 'F--- You All'


First Posted: 01/03/11 04:02 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:20 PM ET

Running back Brandon Jacobs has had a roller coaster of a season and it ended with his team missing the playoffs. On Monday, the troubled New York Giant expressed his feelings by cursing at the media.

"You're all getting pictures of Brandon Jacobs leaving, wondering if he'll ever return," Jacobs said, according to Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News. "That'll be your caption tomorrow. F-- you all."

In September, Jacobs lashed out at the media during an interview, saying "You think I'm stupid, don't you?" and then abruptly left.

During a 38-14 loss to the Indianapolis Colts early in the season, Jacobs threw his helmet into the stands and said it was unintentional in his apology after the game.

Throws his helmet into the crowd and cusses out the press.

Typical of the immature behavior of current NFL players. A lot of these guys wouldn't know professional behavior if it bit them on the *ss

I donno, I think some of these people obviously love to irritate him for a headline, to see what he'll do. But then again, he needs some anger management coaching so he doesn't fly off the handle like that. It's part of the territory, doesn't make it right but he's gonna have to deal with it.

tough break for the giants. i blame eli manning for his interception-soaked season.. and of course the NFC was a very tight race this year. Packers deserved it over TB and NY. way better all around football team.

Yup I've been complaining about Eli for 2 yrs now, he needs to scramble more & stop tryin to force things where they shouldn't be.

I am no Giants fan but I think it's a broken system where an 7-9 team can host a playoff game and a 10-6 team is out of the playoffs.

You can't have thin skin and play in New York.

He had a strong second half of the season after the helmet incident.

Brandon is right.

Sports journalism is a farce in general but in NYC it is grotesque.

Is this a 5 minute argument or the full half hour?

Sports journalism can be pretty inane and annoying, but Jacobs has proven to be quite a train wreck himself.

As soon as Tiki Jacobs leaves the NY Sports scene he'll be another nobody and 10 years from now Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel will do a sad pathetic story on his hardships.

He'll probably have success similar to that of Derrick Ward and Ron Dayne after they left New York.

I don't care for the Giants, but I agree with Jacobs.

Journalist are annoying

Perhaps ... but not as annoying as people who refer to themselves in the third person, as Mr. Jacobs did.

I suspect Jacobs has a nagging injury.  It would explain his issues on and off the field.  Sucks to be the walking wounded.

Jacobs lead all NFC running backs in yards-per-carry with a 5.6 average. If he was injured I'd like to see what kind of monster he's be when completely healthy.

He doesn't tip toe with the press. But he sure tip toes when he has the ball. He hasn't ran like a bull in over 2 years.
