'Game of Thrones' author George R.R. Martin rips Giants over OBJ trade

George R.R. Martin is experiencing what he calls a "Big Blue nightmare" following the New York Giants' decision to trade star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to the Cleveland Browns.

The "Game of Thrones" author and Giants fan shared his thoughts on the trade in a blog post on his website titled "Kill Me Now."

"I've been watching and rooting for the G-Men since 'the Greatest Game Ever Played' in 1958," Martin wrote.

"Beckham was not only the best receiver on today's Giants, but he was the best receiver this storied NFL franchise has EVER had in their long history, and probably the best receiver they will ever have. They are certainly not going to replace him with the 17th overall pick in the forthcoming draft."

Martin also took issue with the Giants trading defensive tackle Damon Harrison during the 2018 season, allowing safety Landon Collins to walk away in free agency this winter, and shipping pass-rusher Olivier Vernon off to the Browns with Beckham.

"No way that any team can replace its best wideout, its best pass-rusher, its best safety, and its best run-stuffer in one year, two years, three years," he wrote. "I thought the last two seasons were rough for Giants fans. Next year is going to make them look like the good old days.

"Someone pinch me. I am having a Big Blue nightmare."
