In New Orleans, ODB means you went on the other side of the river..."he went ovah da bridge".

You say that, and then must have missed the dozens of "ODB this" and "ODB that" on the Scoreboard last night.

Actually, while odell was here playing football he said numerous times he preferred odb because thats what his dad was called. Obviously at this point in his career he is obj.

Yeah, don’t let the kids choose the nickname. Leave it to a mouth breather swamp rat in a sports message board to make the call.

1. Why does this bother you?
2. Who decided it was OBJ and not ODB?

Well we LSU people think OBJ, but people have been calling him ODB since his breakout rookie year.

People say ODB for several reasons.

One, as you mentioned about the rapper, is that he's from New York (the rapper), where ODB currently plays for the Giants.

Nicknames are given. They aren't decided by the player (unless you're Matty Ice).

Keep it up and we'll be meeting at Sonic for a cherry limeade and some fisticuffs

I prefer to say ODB.

Only time I say obj is when talking to commonfolk and I need to talk down to them.

I’ve been hearing OBJ/ODB arguments since he first started catching passes at LSU. To me they are interchangeable.

1. It was ODB on this board years ago, well before he was drafted.
2. It’s ODB because O Dell Beckham and he was nasty on the field at LSU.

In this case everyone needs to stop calling Brandon McCarthy B-Mac. Brian McCann has dibs on that one.

You mean when they say "the rapper?" and you have to try and not look like an idiot so you then say OBJ.

If anything, ODB (not the rapper) would be OBJ's dad.
