Tiki/Eli Feud
http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=090...o&confirm=true
Pretty much, most of you along with myself watched the Giants game two nights ago. Tiki made remarks about Eli's leadership and Eli responds. Read the article, it does a better job of explaining it than me :P

Yeah I gained a little too lol. But I knew there would have to be some sort of retaliation when Tiki said that he was comical speaking to the team.

Yeah but i really felt like Eli sort of deffered to Tiki's strong personality when he was there, and now that he is gone, when Tiki takes a shot, Eli can right back, and not worry about seeing each other in the huddle. More Tiki does it, the more he look like a fool, and burn bridges within the franchise, if he hasnt already. Supposedly he wanted to interview TC and Reese, but wasnt granted it by the team. Pretty embaressing when your team you played for and had success in, won't give you access because they arent sure what will come out of your mouth.

Not to be rude, but Tiki was always about Tiki. Always had a smile and would say the right thing but deep down .....
Kudos to Eli -- he spoke the truth. Maybe he can take on Strahan's selfish rants one day and solidify his role as the Man.
Team needs stars who care about winning.

Terrell Owens has the bad reputation, but I think Tiki Barber is the bigger tool. Here is an Urban Dictionary definition of a "tool":
Quote:
|
A person, typically male, who says or does things that cause you to give them a 'what-are-you-even-doing- here' look. The 'what-are-you-even-doing- here' look is classified by a glare in the tool's direction and is usually accompanied by muttering of how big of a tool they are. The tool is usually someone who is unwelcome but no one has the balls to tell them to get lost. The tool is always making comments that are out-of-place, out-of-line or just plain stupid. The tool is always trying too hard to fit in, and because of this, never will. However, the tool is useful because you can use them for things; money, rides, ect.
|
Sounds befitting of Tiki Barber.

Both guys are in the wrong. There was no reason for Tiki to start anything and Eli questioning Tiki's heart was an absolute joke. Tiki carried the rest of that offense. Too much drama.
