Maxman Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I would be psyched if he retired. That would be great. That being said I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetfan4hire Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Brandon Jacobs would be a fantasy scoring machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think he is signed for next year- he has so many things going on professionally that for him to decide to retire is a easier decision than other athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think he is signed for next year- he has so many things going on professionally that for him to decide to retire is a easier decision than other athletes. plus the fact he may be interested in climbing a short flight of stairs unassisted when he's 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinsuck Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 This is garbage. He's milking the Giants for more $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Barber really has been saying this for a few years now but I thought it was that he was going after NEXT season, not this, but still, surprising. Once Tiki does retire, the offense falls squarely on the shoulder of Eli Manning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeebers Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 If Accorsi thinks Barber is HOF running back, he is going senile. He is a good back, no doubt, but Hall Of Famer, ehh NO! Now the Giants can play the Brett Favre wait and see game while everybody kisses Tiki's ass to come back. IMO, just STFU and play football and if you want to retire at the end of the year just do it and spare us the drama. Agreed...Tiki's had 2 great years and 2 good ones. That does not make a hall of famer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Agreed...Tiki's had 2 great years and 2 good ones. That does not make a hall of famer. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/BarbTi00.htm 2 great years, 3 good years and moving onto another great year right now #17 in all time total yardage his 2005 season was #2 all time in total yardage in a single season, by the way i'd say hes borderline HOF material, you can't deny him but he's clearly not a lock yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Tiki's a great player, but an even bigger kiss ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
