I have to say I’m kind of surprised to hear he’s a bit of an a-hole. He seems to cover it up well while on camera.

I'm not. Barber turned on Coach Tom Coughlin in a classless display of ingratitude to the man who rescued his career from being destroyed by a severe case of fumbleitis. He's a Class-A clymer.

“Like Tiger Woods, this guy has a million dollar smile and no values.”

Exactly!

Like Barack H. Obama, this guy has a million dollar smile and no worthwile values

Yeah and even worse 0bama wants to tax us for the pleasure of his smile at least Tiki Barber uses his own money.

I don't really remember him either. 2005-2007 was a slow time in my news-junkie career though.

I’m never going to wear my Barber Giants shirt again.

Sheesh........what is it with these guys.

But then Bubba got a pass.

Elliott Spitzer goes on the msm shows to talk finance..........

So why would athletes believe they won’t get a pass.

Just the opposite of his twin brother Ronde, who is a class act; and this is coming from a diehard NY Giants fan.

I remember seeing him. An opportunist always trying to “one-up” the conversation and stoke the fan base. You could see that the other hosts thought he was a jerk.

Tiki was right when he said bebe Manning wasn’t showing leadership.

As for Coughlin, he was so hated he needed an intermediary to deal with his players.

Interesting article. Barber’s “camp” dare not confirm any of the claims of the bimbo’s friends. Divorce court awaits. But who would you believe? I go with the college observers. I hope Mrs. Barber goes for the jugular. Someone so stupid doesn’t need all that money to waist. Wonder what bimbo will do when gifts and glory fade away?

I don't remember him either, but it sounds as if he's just another empty-suited black guy, with a broad smile and a line of bull$h!+.

Will we ever get past our media-induced, white-guilt gene and start saying "no" to these clowns?

I agree. I’ve followed him with interest because both of us graduated from the same high school and college. I’ve always liked him and thought him to be extremely talented. This is a big disappointment.

Tiki’s first mistake was leaving the New York Giants. His second mistake was blaming Coach Tom Coughlin for his departing. His third mistake was missing the Giant’s subsequent Super Bowl winning season.

Good for Fox! I wondered why he left in the first place.

I don’t remember him from either show so he won’t be missed.
