firstngoal Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 During their weekly Sunday morning "debates" or arguments, I kinda got the feeling that Tom Jackson would have loved to have taken Irvin out to the old woodshed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstngoal Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 This is great news.... I agree with the posts above....Now they just gotta get rid of Suzy f-ing Kolber No Way! The show needs some "eye-candy" on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in San Diego Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Michael was great if you liked listening to a crack head blather on wearing a suit bought at a pimp store. Can't say that I will miss the ass clown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayzer32 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 LINK Hoffheimer said Irvin did not violate any contractual morals clause. Well of course he wasn't in violation. Apparently nowhere in the ESPN contract does is state that you can be "let go" for blowing lines in the men's crapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1billsfan Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I actually was suprised at how much I liked Irvin his first year at ESPN. I thought he provided candid insight on player psyche on and off the field. He also wasn't afraid to be very critical of players which was a welcome change from a former player turned announcer (former players never seemed to be as critical before Irvin came along). After that first year, Irvin became the obnoxious vain jerk we all knew him for, so I'm glad he's been booted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Yeah he was loud, wore ugly suits, and was wrong most of the time. But you know what, he had an opinion that actually generate some conversation. How many Steve Young threads have there been? I'm putting the over/ under age of posters in this thread at 45.5. I'm going over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I didnt mind him so much. Boomer TJ and Irvin made NFL primetime fun to watch. It will be interesting to see who steps up. They need somoene to provide some energy into the show, which dispite all his faults, was irvins best attribute to the show. I put the over/under on Irvin getting arrested for cocaine possession and taking a dive off the deep end in about 14 months.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDS Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 For those of you who say Irvin was "wrong" or "controversial" in his comments, let me axe you one thing... Where did you buy your Irvin decoder ring? I couldn't understand a damn word that came out of his mouth. It's like he was hiding a kilo of coke in his cheek....

I was almost disappointed that no one brought up the nose candy. I would be willing to bet that he failed a drug test or something. Since Stephen A. got his show axed and Irvin is axed, my next most annoying ESPN personality would be Barry Melrose, they have to find a less annoying Hockey announcer.

ThreeBillsDrive Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 it was always uncomfortable watching Ditka try not to punch him right in the face, and pretend to be buddies with him. i bet mike is lighting up a fine cigar right now in celebration. Kudos to ESPN for finally recognizing the mistake in hiring the Dopehead in the first place. Michael Irvin on TV was exposed for being a self-centered, talentless NFL analyst. He was a poor representative for the game. And his constant @ss-kissing of Terrell Owens in his one-on-one interviews were likely even too much for the few TO sympathizers. He'll have a lot more time to ham it up with TO now that he's unemployed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEFINITELY. its painful to try to listen to listen to him. and it has nothing to do with "ebonics" or anything. the man just cant physically speak well. hes got a mushmouth. my high school principal was the same way. his mouth just refused to make the words.
