Every time you want to cut

some slack, just because of the way he can play the game, he nearly costs his team again for acting like a chumpwit.

The Giants didn’t lose a game to the Ravens that and Beckham won for them with that slant pass and run.

But they could have because the kid got flagged again for pulling off his helmet as soon as he ran through the end zone, and the Ravens got the better field position they did after the Giants kicked off.

From the time Beckham made that one-handed catch against the Cowboys, we have gone out of our way, all of us, to convince him that the world is hanging on every word of his, and every move.

But it has become clear that Beckham goes out of his way to make himself as annoying as defensive backs make him.

He keeps going out of his way to act like a supremely talented jerk.

I want people to stop telling me what a great team guy he is.

Not when he acts the way he did after that touchdown he’s not.

Not after another flag and another fine. We’ve all moved on from what happened in Los Angeles the other night, but how in the world did anybody in New York looking at that play at the plate with decide he was out? He wasn’t out. He was safe. He was safe from every angle. It turned out to be a blowout game, and so nobody cared much for what would have been the first run of the game.

But it was the wrong call by the home plate umpire and it was the wrong call by the replay umpire.

Maybe everybody can do better in the Fall Classic. Look around the NFL and tell me which team has played worse than the Jets so far, and that includes the Bears. On both sides of the ball. This isn’t all the schedule’s fault. It isn’t all the quarterbac­k’s fault. It doesn’t matter that I thought they would be better than this, and

and and maybe even thought they would do better than this (of course Woody thought his guy would, too).

The wisdom on this, the way a lot of things do in pro football, comes it needed from the King County Sheriff’s Office in Washington state, which this week ridiculed a league investigat­or as being a “yokel” because of the way the guy originally looked for any and all public informatio­n records concerning from Nobody cares why you lost. They just remember that you lost. Tell me if you’re thinking what I’m thinking: That at least one of the guys the Yankees got for better turn out to be as good at baseball as Andrew Miller is.

Guy still knows how to play a hot hand at this time of year, doesn’t he? Kind of? Who’s going to need more on Nov. 9, a crisis manager or a grief counselor? Tweet from the great

the other day: “Let me see if I’ve got this right: Tiger’s afraid to put his game on display at the Safeway Classic, but he might win five more majors?” My friend suggested what would have been two awesome drinking games at the presidenti­al debates:

1) Every time Trump uses the word “disaster.”

2) Every time fakelaughs at something Trump just said.

You know what probably didn’t think he’d need before the Notre Dame season made it to Election Day? A vote of confidence of his own. See what I did there?
