Former NFL running back Tiki Barber joins The Home Team each Monday morning to recap the NFL weekend, and said this morning that his former head coach with the New York Giants, Tom Coughlin, has reached the end of the line with the team.

only by fickle fans. For the rest of us true Giants fan, we'll remember him as the greatest Giants RB to put on the Giants uniform.
Tiki may be right, he may be wrong but he's paid to voice an opinion and getting on Coughlin is more than fair at this point. I'm in the middle...but Tiki isn't out of line for saying this.
I think Barber is out of line - yet again - and it's classless for him to call for Coughlin's job.
Right or wrong in his opinion and i'm sure he often felt the same way when he was playing for him. Then - bam - you're out of the league and they win two SBs.

He would never announce he has a cure for cancer or anything outside of the ABC 's.

Yes, the guy who was valedictorian of his high school and went to UVA on an academic, not athletic scholarship, can only recite his ABC's.
People have called TIki a douchebag, but anyone who tries to say he's dumb is just grasping at straws.
No big deal?
It's only awkward because he played here and because he's a proven and long standing smarmy marment douchebag.
Let it go?

So you believe he's going to announce the cure for cancer? If thousands of Ivy leaguers don't make it in the business world then why does a self destructive idiot get the benefit of doubt with his miserable track record? Oh of course, he played football. Whatever
The perceptions of reality are startling despite amicable evidence.
This pic gets me everytime lol. I definitely chuckled out loud.

Reading comprehension clearly isnt your strong suit.
Exactly. It's going on 8 years yet whenever he opens his mouth, regardless of what he says, there's a chorus of "shit up Tiki!". It's going on a decade already, if you can't reconcile the fact the Tiki Barber isn't the idealized Mr. Nice Guy he appeared to be than I don't know what to tell you.
But he's absolutely right. If you're OK with the last 5 years of Giants football and furthermore scoff at the idea of replacing a coach who's missed the postseason 4 out of 5 years, in the prime of the greatest QB the franchise has ever had, then you have ridiculously low expectations. From the poor drafts to the alarming regularity with which they are blown out, the last 5 years have been unacceptable.
Hell, he didn't even have to mean it...
No, he had to pile on. As good a football player as Tiki was, he had and has no sense of timing.

no you jackass. I never once said that. I said he is, despite what you want to believe, smart enough to recite something other than the "ABC'S".
Reading comprehension clearly isnt your strong suit.

Hey Tiki, do you think you could have run behind this offensive line? Do you have any words about Reese?
TOM CAUGHLIN'S JOB IS FINE. HE'S DOING A GREAT JOB. IT'S JUST A REBUILDING YEAR BECAUSE OF ALL THE ROOKIES AND INJURIES. HE IS A DOING VERY WELL. HE IS MOST DEFINITELY ON A VERY COLD SEAT.
Explain to me how this is a rebuilding year when we spent more money in free agency the. Any team and have a franchise QB, I'm so sick of these excuses for this team and fans being blind and ignoring the fact it's time for a change
And I'm sure Tiki knew this would get him some ink, which I suspect he's desperate for. He aleays has been.
Ditto
DItto? It's a direct quote from you that he can't recite anything other than his "ABC's", and your stupid ass comes back with "OH HE CAN CURE CANCER BC HES A FOOTBALL PLAYER?"
Anyway, this thread is predictable. A bunch of butthurt fans acting incredibly butthurt.
Amani Toomer has said way worse shit about this team than Tiki, but nobody seems to give a fuck.

I love it when stupid people try to sound smart and just sound even more idiotic. Amicable evidence huh? The evidence is friendly? I assume you mean ample and you will blame auto-correct or your gf's cat scratching your junk while you type. You've proven in a short time to be quite the fuckwit. Well done.
It's so unbelievably petty and ridiculous at this point. His career as a Giant should far outweigh the couple of stupid comments that proceeded it.
He was a great player and one of the most talented offensive players we've ever seen in a Giant uniform.
Just a hypocritical, condescending, mega douchebag.
