October 27, 200322 yr Is it true that Josh Beckett is real cocky and not really a nice person? He seemed like a real nice guy but now I am starting to think twice! When I watched the news, one of the reporters tryed to talk to Josh and he kinda ignorded him. He also would not sign autographs. unlike the other players. is it true? What is Josh really like? thanks! Have a wonderful day
October 27, 200322 yr Josh is nice he'll stop after the game and signed a few autographs. He just had lots of confidence in himself.
October 27, 200322 yr Yeah... He is very cocky, but I think is all a charade. He is trying to be like Roger Clemens, who has been a major a**hole throughout his career. However, I do not believe he is mean to the fans. He is mean to the reporters because 99% of them never gave respect to the Marlins. Do not believe everything you hear in the news. Beckett is cool and deserves to give crap to the reporters who treated the Marlins like underdogs. :cool Beckett is God
October 27, 200322 yr Author I am glad to hear that he is a nice guy! Maybe I got the wrong impression Maybe I'll get to see him this spring training
October 27, 200322 yr he signed my ticketstub last season in a game against the Braves...seemed cool about it.
October 27, 200322 yr Beckett won the World Series, he can have the biggest head he wants. Though it sometimes get's annoying. But Lcyberlina is right, no one shows any respect to the Marlins so why should Beckett show respect to them?

October 27, 200322 yr Beckett's Thinking is probably like this Media - "OMG JOSH BECKETT YOU ARE SO AWESOME!! WE ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE AWESOME SINCE WAYYYYYY BACK WHEN YOU PITCHED YOUR 2 HIT SHUTOUT AGAINST THE CUBS!!!! CAN WE HAVE INTERVIEWS WITH YOU AND CAN YOU POSE WITH US AND TALK ABOUT HOW AWESOME IT IS TO BE ALL GIDDY AND FRIENDLY WITH THE MEDIA TEEE-HEEEE" Beckett- "Where the f*** where you during the regular season, and where f*** were you when i had my blister problems? Im sorry but you are going to have to get off my c*ck please cause all year long you, the same people who praise us now, have been writing us off and how we got lucky and how it was all a curse and how we dont hit enough homeruns and how speed is dead in baseball and so on and so forth" Dont give em anything Josh, they dont deserve squat from you. Leave the media to JP and Dtrizzle, they know how to handle them.
October 27, 200322 yr I wouldnt call beckett a 'nice' guy but he's definately not 'mean or arrogant' or cocky for that matter either. he'll sign but he wont initate conversation with fans i.e. Dontrelle or Castillo.
October 27, 200322 yr The only a**hole on the team that I know of is Penny. I've heard he just ignores everyone, basically. Fans, media, ect.
October 27, 200322 yr I was a little bit embarrassed for him during his post-game interview. I feel he could have been a little bit more humble. Baseball is a very humbling sport and he should be thanking God he was able to win it all. It's a very rare thing. Hopefully, he was just paying the media back for all their trash-talking about the Marlins over the past 6 years - that would be nice to know that he had the team's back. If not, then he is a little too arrogant for his britches and will get it back 10-fold at some point. They all do! LOL Right now, we all love the guy - he gave us the biggest treat of our LIVES!
October 27, 200322 yr i remember when he got drafted he said he planned on making the all-star game in 2-3 years... not many vets were happy about it like alex fernandez. the man believes in himself, its good to have someone who expects to do all these great things
October 27, 200322 yr Josh is a great guy, he's just very confident in himself as a player and in his stuff. He seems pretty layed back when he not playing baseball and his teammates say he's a really good guy ! I think he's awesome ! :wub: AJ BURNETT AND JOSH BECKETT :wub: I LOVE THE MARLINS ! :marlins

I agree with most of what you say, however let's keep in mind that he is only 23. His parents seem to be very very humble, so this may be his media face what we are seeing here.

October 28, 200322 yr The only thing I know is that Beckett has some balls nice.................. :lol :w00t i agree.......
October 28, 200322 yr Josh is so Nice to the Fans! He signs everysingle day at batting practice for like 20-30 Minutes. After the game he use to stop but you get a little tired after a while. He isnt cocky at all.....
October 28, 200322 yr Yeah, He is Cocky, AJ... Not to the fans as far as I know... But he makes the media come begging... I love when he does that. Specially, when all these people who are now gushing over him were the ones belittling the Marlins... Wathc the way he answers most of their questions, he's plainly f'n with them... Funny
