Michael Strahan: $8 Million Man?

2008_08_strahan.jpgWith defensive end Osi Umenyiora's knee injury keeping him on the sidelines for the entire season, you can't blame the Giants for trying to make sure they can defend their Super Bowl win. And that may mean asking Michael Strahan, who retired in June, to come back. The Daily News reports that Strahan might come back for "$8 million and a few kind words." Strahan, who has a sports commentating gig with Fox, said, "I haven't heard from anybody else, so to say if I would or wouldn't is premature, so I'm enjoying my retired life right now." Also to consider: It'd be pretty damn hard to go out on a higher note than he did.

I guess since Strahan never bothered with training camp when he was on the team, my fear that he might be out of shape if unfounded.

Whichever gods were smiling on the Giants last year stopped doing so Saturday night. Forget Strahan though and just put Kiwanuka at DE.
