Odell Beckham Jr. is frustrated with the increased amount of attention on his behavior during games and said he is not having fun anymore playing football.The Giants star wide receiver reflected on his image and on his role in New Yorks offense during an interview with ESPNs Anita Marks on Tuesday, less than 24 hours after a disappointing performance in a nationally televised loss to the Minnesota Vikings.Football is my sanctuary, Beckham told Marks. Its where I go to escape. Its where Im most happy. Im not having fun anymore.Beckhams comments came on the heels of his latest on-field meltdown Monday, when he was flagged for a taunting penalty and repeatedly clashed with Minnesotas Xavier Rhodes. Beckham had been exchanging verbal barbs with Rhodes for several plays before when the Vikings cornerback hit him out of bounds after a 4-yard catch.Referee Brad Allens crew did not penalize Rhodes for the late hit, but Beckham was penalized for taunting when he charged and bumped Rhodes.Giants coach Ben McAdoo was asked Tuesday during a conference call about Beckhams comment about not having fun in his current role.I have no response, McAdoo said.The exchange with Rhodes came one week after Beckhams latest confrontation with Josh Norman, the outspoken Washington Redskins cornerback who famously feuded with Beckham last season as a member of the Carolina Panthers.Beckham cited last seasons matchup with Norman in his interview with Marks, saying that it tarnished his image and blaming the media for continuing to focus on his on-field conduct. He also said that the intense coverage of his latest matchup with Norman and the Redskins was circulated on social media, causing other Giants players to see it and focus on their teammates mental state.A two-time Pro Bowler, Beckham had a career-worst 23 receiving yards on just three catches Monday. The Giants have targeted Beckham in the first quarter just eight times over their first four games, according to ESPN Stats & Information.When asked about potentially getting more involved in making offensive adjustments on the sideline, Beckham expressed more frustration to Marks.What Im communicating, were not doing, he said. Im not getting the opportunities to contribute, and thats frustrating to me.Beckham had a long conversation with Giants general manager Jerry Reese in the locker room after Mondays game, according to ESPN Giants reporter Jordan Raanan.McAdoo said last week that his star receiver needed to become less of a distraction to himself and his teammates, but Monday nights actions apparently didnt fall into that category.It was not a distraction, McAdoo said. Two competitive players playing the game.Giants quarterback Eli Manning said Monday, however, that Beckham has to be aware of other teams attempts to rattle him.People are looking for him, Manning said. Hes got to play smart, and he cant afford to do anything there. Theyre going to call him. Hes brought that on himself, and hes got to realize that. Mike McGlinchey Super Bowl Jersey . Murray beat Sam Querrey 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-3 to clinch Britains opening-round victory against the United States on Sunday at Petco Park. "Im proud of the way Im playing just now, because I had to do a lot of work to get back to where I want to be," Murray said after celebrating with his teammates on the red clay court in a temporary stadium in left field of the downtown home of baseballs San Diego Padres. DeForest Buckner Super Bowl Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. http://www.thesf49ersshoponline.com/Youth-Jeff-Wilson-Jr-49ers-Jersey/ . R.J. Umberger scored twice to lead the Blue Jackets to a franchise-record for consecutive wins with a 5-3 victory Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Kings. Dante Pettis Super Bowl Jersey . -- Chicago Bears cornerback Tim Jennings was selected Monday to his second straight Pro Bowl, while guard Kyle Long made it after a solid rookie season. Richard Sherman Super Bowl Jersey ., for the next three years with the signings on Monday of Daryl Townsend and Michael Carter. DENVER -- Kevin Durant needed just one more basket to keep an impressive scoring streak going and more than 5 minutes to get it.His coach, though, didnt want to risk injury. Not in a blowout. Not in game No. 9 of the season.Like that, another astonishing streak snapped.Stephen Curry scored 33 points Thursday and the Golden State Warriors beat the Denver Nuggets 125-101 on a night Durants string of 72 straight regular-season games with at least 20 points ended.Durant finished with 18 points. He remained tied with Michael Jordan for the fourth-longest streak of 20 or more points in league history.It was cool while it lasted, said Durant, whose streak began on Nov. 23, 2015, while with Oklahoma City. Up there with some great names. But Ive got bigger goals in mind.A week ago, Curry had his league-record streak of 157 games with at least one 3-pointer ended.None of it matters and our guys know that, Warriors coach Steve Kerr explained. Its about winning.Hence, an early end to his night. Durant stayed in the game, trying to get to the magic number of 20, until 5:51 remaining. He was subbed out after being called for an offensive foul.Im not going to mess with the basketball gods. If you want to leave a guy out there to get some kind of record, youre asking for an injury, Kerr explained. The game called for him to come out. He came out. He had no problem with it. I think theres going to be a lot of that stuff this year.Curry tweaked his ankle in a win over Dallas on Wednesday, but it didnt appear to hamper him against the Nuggets. He finished 7 of 13 from 3-point range, including one that he turned into a four-point play. That shot even impressed him as he lay on the ground and celebrated.One of those you dont expect to go in, Curry said. But that was a terrible celebration.So torrid was his touch that Curry even launched one from just inside half-court. He missed it, but the crowd erupted.Honestly, it was a dumb shot, Curry said.Then again, he did have Draymond Green egging him on.Its like the demon-angel on your shoulder -- which one are you going to listen to? Curry said. It wouldve been fun too make it.ddddddddddddRookie Jamal Murray had 14 points for the Nuggets, who are 0-2 at Pepsi Center this season after stressing the importance of regaining a home-court advantage. Fellow rookie Malik Beasley scored his first NBA points on a 3-pointer in the third quarter. He finished with 12 points.If that wasnt enough, the third rookie of the group, Juan Hernangomez, chipped in 11.There were some positives at the end, Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. But you tip your hat. We got our (rears) kicked tonight. We have to regroup.TIP-INSWarriors: Golden State went on a 17-2 run in the first quarter and never looked back. ...

Denver starts 0-2 at home for the third time in four seasons.PROTESTDenver filed a protest with the NBA over a disputed call in the final second of a 108-107 loss in Memphis on Tuesday. The ball appeared to go off a Grizzlies player with 0.7 seconds remaining, but the ruling on the floor and video review awarded possession to Memphis. Marc Gasol hit the game-winning shot on a tip-in.Best-case scenario would be to replay the last seven-tenths, Malone said.The odds of that happening, though, are slim and none, Malone said.ATHLETE SIGHTINGSThere were quite a few Denver Broncos in attendance, including pass rushers Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware, along with receiver Demaryius Thomas and cornerback Chris Harris Jr. The Colorado Avalanche were represented by forward Nathan MacKinnon and defenseman Tyson Barrie.UP NEXTWarriors: Going for their ninth straight win over Phoenix on Sunday.
