Someone tell Mr. Ed it's ok to fix his teeth. Those chompers were on high display when he tried to punk that female ESPN reporter earlier in the week.

Gap or not, he's been a hell of a player...

He's usually somewhat thoughtful...

I thought it was great that he called out Burress when asked about him...but I thought the way he handled the fall out from it was disgraceful.

He's interviewed on WFAN every week...and he's pretty much articulate and well spoken...

And I applauded the way he handled being asked about Burress...he didn't pull punches.

BUT...an answer other than "If I have anything to say to Burress, I'll say it to him in private" invited EXACTLY what happened.

And he KNOWS that because he's dealt with the NY media for years.

Shame on him.

Yep, the media can be scum...but he already knows that.

he's semi-articulate but a complete phony. won't talk to most radio guys if they ask any tough questions beyond "you are the greatest pass rusher in NFL history, how do you do it year in and out?

he's another dumb jock who think's he's Aristotle.

he also lied about Plax in his interview, because he NEVER went and spoke to Plax or anyone else as he said he would.... even after tearing him up in public. While what he said was correct about plax, it should stay in the locker room to begin with. Total disgrace. Damn Favre for laying down for him too.

Bonigno on the FAN asks him some pretty tough questions...that's Bonigno's style.

So I don't agree with that assessment.

I think he's contracted for that show only, so doesn't grant interviews to other guys on WFAN.

And he didn't even come close to "tearing him up"....His words, "I don't quite understand what his lack of motivation is in those types of situations. But I'm going to try to see what it is and if I can talk to him about it. He's too good for that."

Pretty mild if you ask me. Hell Owens popped off more about Vanderjagdt being cut.

What Strahan did that was wrong, way wrong, was the way he confronted the reporter who spoke to Burress.

Once Strahan spoke those words publically, and btw, its my opinion that he SHOULD have because Burress has done this time and again, they were out there for any reporter to do with as they pleased.

his ******** way he posed for his official picture was enough for me to realize he is a self absorbed fool. He doesn't have the charm to pull off the crap he tries to, good player or not, He is a tool.

The dude was chomping down on a sandwich while ripping on that reporter. How can anyone take this idiot seriously?

Living in NJ, I see him plastered all over the news when Giants football is the topic and I can say, Strahan does have a nice grasp on the language and speaks well, but he is an arrogant ***.

Sure, being confident because you're very good at your position is fine, but it's what he says that shows him for what he is, not how he says it. The Burress discussion being a perfect example.

Well, that entire team does a LOT of talking...especially for a team that hasn't won anything.

I was ok with him saying what he did about Burress...Burress has done it time after time...If a reporter asked me, after saying "No comment" or trying to sugar coat it, I'd say it straight out..."Yep, I think he dogged it and Yep, I'm going to talk to him about it."

That happens to be the truth. EVERYONE in NY knows it.

BUT...having said that, then Strahan shouldn't go off the way he did.

For me, the original comment was ok...because this isn't the first time Burress has done that.

But the way Strahan dealt with the ESPN reporter afterwards was a disgrace.

Didn't it come out in his divorce trial that he was engaging in "alternative sexual activities" (as in male vs. male)?? Maybe his significant other thinks the beaver teeth are hot. At any rate he came across as a complete tool in his media cave-in.

First of all the guy is an utter GOON, He has no class as well as tact, Granted he is a good football player, He was stuffing a peanut butter Sandwich in his mouth as he unloaded his fury on that reporter, No don't get me wrong here, I cant stand those jackals myself ( reporters ). But to act like a complete shlub, is uncalled for.
Now for morals this imbecile, Had a fiancé in Toronto that he was sporting around Jacksonville,while his wife was at home in NJ, His wife thru him out and he was staying at his "buddies". She claimed he was a rump ranger, It was a bloody mess here with him in the papers, I could careless what he did if he did,it doesn't have any effect on me in my life, But it was nice to see him dragged thru the mud. I have to admit I enjoyed that. Hypocrites, Karma baby good Ole Karma.

He chases cars in the off-season so it would be a losing effort to try and fix anything.
