Save Michael Irvin!

So apparently rumors are swirling that Michael Irvin may be on the outs at ESPN because he is a “a ticking time bomb, ready to explode into a public-relations nightmare.”

Now Say what you will about Irvin. He may be an unabashed Cowboys homer. He bay be a little… ummm… un-PC when he says things like (paraphrasing) “Tony Romo must have had some black in him.”  He may be somewhat insane. But damnit, he’s OUR insane NFL studio analyst. What do they want, Shannon “Mumbles” Sharpe?  Bill “Custom Made Support Chair” Parcells?

And really - can anyone pull off a pimp suit like ol’ #88?


Do you think Bill Parcells could pull off this suit? I don’t think so. (picture via Yahoo Movies)

Of course, the NY Post is never wrong about anything, so I’m sure you can bank on this.

I guess I will have to look at Sharp non-talking ass. But I guess when a real man keeps it real most people can take it. Freedom of Speech. Listen to his opinion and move on. I do still have Deion. Michael see you on another station.
