Strahan Astray

Michael Smith of ESPN is stating that Giants Defensive End Michael Strahan is holding out for a new contract based on a promise from the Giants prior GM. Apparently this "holdout" was not about whether Strahan was contemplating retirement, but purely about the dollar signs. The Giants continue to affirm that they will not renegotiate Strahan's deal.

My Take: One of the biggest babies in football is crying again. Between complaining that practices were 'too hard' the last few seasons and now bitching about his contract, Strahan just needs to retire. Is he still a talented DE? Of course he is. But this Giants roster is full of self-proclaimed greats and they need to begin cleaning house at some point...why not start now?

Hopefully Strahan calls a tremendous career quits and simply moves on. The Giants will be worse in talent for it but better in team camaraderie.
