OBJ plays the blame game

AT 3-5 and near the end of a season of disorder, LSU has “voluntarily” removed itself from any bowl consideration to try to preempt NCAA charges of payola to players and other violations. Oh, how noble! Look, sins all cleansed in concert with a rotten season!

Meanwhile, a proud son of LSU football, Odell Beckham Jr., is now blaming former Giants coach Pat Shurmur for his what-took-them-so-long departure from the Giants.

It’s never Beckham’s fault that he’s an attention-hogging fool, as if he dyed his hair, spoke fluent crazy and revealed his new full-body tattoos to ensure privacy and modesty. He once complained that playing in New York is like “playing in a fishbowl,” as if he didn’t crave the glare.

And his civil comportment following LSU’s national championship this oast January — Beckham made two ugly scenes — must be why LSU has unfairly banned him from being anywhere near the team.

And how is it the Browns are thriving since he was injured? Pat Shurmur?

➤ The Rutgers Scarlet Knights lost to Penn State on Saturday wearing black uniforms — RU’s third ensemble worn this season on behalf of a public, taxpayer-supported college going broke to fund its football team.

By the way, Penn State may have come in 1-5, but its players had their intricate jazzed up handshakes down perfectly!
