The Littlest Giant

King Kaufman has a great column on New York Giants player Michael Strahan. It seems that Strahan is refusing to come to training camp because he wants more money, or wants to retire, or is feeling disrespected, or something*. It's just the usual pre-season shenanigans we see every August.

Here's Kaufman's great line on Strahan:
Wait till he hears about the '56 Giants, who went 8-3-1 and pounded the Chicago Bears 47-7 in the NFL Championship Game -- without Strahan even being alive!
Best thing I've read in a sports column in like forever (I also agree that it's time to start legalizing these performance enhancing drugs and see what life looks like on the other side).

* Update
He's getting a very expensive divorce.
