WFAN is reporting that Tiki is coming out of retirement

by GreenBeer on Mar 8, 2011 2:36 PM EST

WFAN is reporting that Tiki Barber is coming out of retirement. They are also reporting that the Giants apparently still own his rights. Do Giants fans want him back?

I don't recall what his contract was but regardless I don't think I would want him back on the team. He didn't exactly leave on the best terms. Who knows if he can get back into shape. Pretty crazy whatever happens. Maybe they could trade and get something for him. What do you think?

I would take Tiki

Before I ever took back Plaxico! Say what you want about Tiki, he worked hard and he always left it on the field.

exactly why

i’m thankful we have jerry reese heading this team. if fans ever ran any sports team they would be worse than the raiders or the pirates. which is pretty hard to do but nonetheless…

Ah, yes, because the Raiders were just awful last season.

Do you even pay attention to modern football? The Giants might have had a better record last season, but there’s no question that the Raiders were the better team. Do some research, you might actually learn something.

you're bordering on troll hood horry

i’ve noticed some of your posts, and the tone is always condescending and ill tempered. either you’re yelling off your soap box about the raiders, or making fun of someone’s misspelled words. that doesn’t add anything to any intelligent sports convo fella. all you do is say your smart assed remark, and then disappear into oblivion until the next spelling mistake.

calm down! you claim to be a Giants’ fan, then come on here with some respect. i feel you that you like the Raiders too, but rebutt with some e-etiquette.

and to your point about the Raiders, well Drizzzy is not talking out of his ass with his comment. your beloved Raiders haven’t had a winning season in 8 years. i’d say that is the only research Drizzzy or I need to do for this topic.

Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....

don't buy it.

but if its true i’d rather just keep him. he can catch reallll well outa the backfield. and if he can not be an ahole or complain, his vet leadership over bradshaw and his fumbling might help us in the future. i’vei used to liked tiki. but tom never did, so its really up to them.
watever they think is best for the team. i say yes. does JR or Tommy???? thats the real question.

And..

Yes he talked too much, but the situation is different now. Eli isn’t the new kid any more and he could handle Tiki just fine. Besides, the best Tiki could hope for at this point is to be dept at the RB position. Can you imagine a backfield with him AND Ahmad!

TIki is such a jamoke

Come back if you want, but you’re goona have to kiss some serious Coughlin/Manning ass if you want any touches.

Don't let my support confuse you, I am in fact a fan of the Giants.

I don't get it

This dude is bitching that he’s being overworked & his heart isn’t in it. So he quits, then we take home the Lombardi Trophy & 3 years later he thinks he’s missing out. What are you thinking Tiki? Do you think playing again will give you credibility in the booth?

Oh Tiki! What happened?

Wasn’t he supposed to be the next Walter Cronkite? That worked out well for him. Now a bitter divorce Financial troubles? Causing a 36 y/o man to come back and try and play running back in the NFL. Sad really. Eli and Tom must be laughing about this somewhere.

by bronx joey on Mar 8, 2011 5:42 PM EST reply actions

I loved watching him in

his last few dominating years. It is not age so much as hits and injuries to shorten a RB career. What an idiot to quit and burn bridges.

This is how it might happen:

Tiki Barber: [Tiki sees the limo] Oh, I get it. I’m supposed to get inside your limo and let you put your finger inside me. And if I go down on you, I get a starting job.
Tom Coughlin: Uh, no. I just want to show you something.
Tiki Barber: Yeah, I bet you do.
Tom Coughlin: Please, Tiki. I’m not from Hollywood, I’m not going to fuck your mouth, and my time is EXTREMELY valuable!

Tiki Barber: Jesus, this is a nice limo.
Tom Coughlin: Yes, it is. Now suck my cock.
