Irvin pulled from Super Bowl coverage

[Rayman70]

So basically he said something to her she didn't like. Honestly they need to provide a detailed explanation of what is going on. I am tired of people hiding behind meaningless words such as misconduct. Did he think that she was an escort and proposition her? Did he call her out her name? What did he say that was so bad, especially if it started with a handshake.

her feelings were hurt and he's now without a gig. SHAMEFUL. This is the new NFL and its been leaning this way gradually for years. Did the NFL Network think they hired Mary Poppins instead of the flamboyant Irvin?

Yeah...if it was in the lobby, I suspect there would be lots of witnesses. But, who knows.

Police said there were no complaints of any incident. Article on ESPN I think. I got it in a sports alert on phone.

Here is the interview where he talked about it.

Everyone, this is Irvins side of the story...starts a few minutes in. Radio hosts had no idea at the time.

 

[Rayman70]

she had her feelings hurt and she wanted revenge. She got it.

I sure do miss Aikman on Fox . Not sure why Moose didn’t get the # 1 gig. The new duo is awful on Fox. Never thought I’d miss Buck too.

Moose is very good at his job.

Do love the Playmaker’s top players on ESPN with Clark. Lol love it.

CCTV footage showed the interaction was less than one minute. Doesn't take long to ruin a million dollar TV career.

But did he? Was he smeared then run? He was drinking he said, said a few things, then shook her hand. THAT WAS IT. I would sue the NFL Network.

 

[jazzcat22]

Meh. Blessing in disguise. He sucks as a talking head anyway. Lol.

I kid, I kid. Hope we get to see what this was all about.

A retired ref was there and threw a flag for an illegal forward pass. NFL looked at video and said the ref was paid off. Bias against a former Dallas player.

 

[Creeper]

The network had no other choice or they’ll be criticized. He’s pulled until it’s investigated. It’s the protocol everywhere. They’re not going to leave someone on the air with an accusation like that hanging over them. Pulling them is the appropriate thing to do. You have to error on the side of caution. It’s not like Irvin doesn’t have a history of bad behavior.

We gave up on "innocent until proven guilty"? How sad for us.

I remember several years ago Warren Sapp got in trouble in Phoenix during NFL networks coverage of the Super Bowl. He was charged with soliciting a prostitute. He was abruptly fired by NFL network. That was the end of his TV career.

 

[CouchCoach]

If she had would we know?

That was my question to the poster who called her a gold digger.

 

[mldardy]

This bs is an actual story. No one knows what happened but he got pulled off the air. Sounds like ridiculous bs.

 

[Risen Star]

He's also been taken off First Take per Gehlken

 

[Rayman70]

I will say this, Michael MIGHT have asked her "how much." Can't rule that out with his history. But I kinda doubt that happened.

overly sensitive Media.

Did he rob someone and have his way with her? This sounds crazy.

 

[Grenic]

Can we wait to judge before we find out what exactly happened? Seriously it's what's wrong with everything

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

It’s amazing Irvin has gone this long before being cancelled. Lol

There is a reason
