I hope he gets 235 yards today and they lose.

The Giants lose - what a great feeling to watch that bunch get their hopes up at the end and then let the stupid Eagles go all the way down the field and kick them out of the playoffs - YES

See you later Barber - now I hope you never get in the HOF either. Cheers

He's got every Giant rushing record...mostly at our expense. :)
I don't wish him badly. His career is over, and he can now go back to doing what he did as a youngster...rooting for Gibbs and the Redskins.
Also...he held himself to a pretty high standard, and wasn't a bad role model either. While I know this isn't really make-or-break criteria for Canton, in this day and age (read:The T.O. Era)...there's worse guys to root against. If Tiki makes the Hall of Fame, I won't shed a tear.
Besides...that would kinda vindicate our run defense, wouldn't it?
"Oh, well...you know, he's a Hall of Famer!" :)

Tiki - I used to like you but then you turned into an arrogant jerk. Glad your gone but too bad I have to watch your smug face on TV for the next 20 years.

That's not even the bad part. You won't even know if it's him or not...he'll probably be taking his turn at DB in Tampa. :)

"You got a point there, judge!" - I guess we should be thankful that the Barber boys decided to close down the NY act and keep the Tampa Bay version going. This way we only need to face "him" on defense every now and then :shock: Considering what he did to our defense that is a very good decision on "their" part, "thanks guys!"

And your right about Canton - who knows whether he makes it or not - I mean that place means nothing without Monk so they might make the same sort of bad decision about this guy too.

Right now I would say (mainly because he's a Giant) he is not "in" but who knows - when we look back in 5 years we may say "hey, he was a helluva RB!"

I don't see how Tiki would even be considered for the HoF, he had a good run over a span of about five seasons but that's the extent of it.

There is no way Tiki is a HALL OF FAMER.

Seriously, he's good, but HALL OF FAME.

The HOF is for the best EVER, and Tiki isn't even one of the best backs in the NFC East. He had 3 good seasons, so people want to put him in the Hall of Fame!?!?!

If he makes the Hall of Fame over Art Monk...

And by the way, did anyone catch NFL Gameday yesterday when CP interviewed Tiki after the game? Portis is so ridiculous! He was wearing like this Pimp trench coat over his suit!

I've got to find a picture of it!

Note my initial post, I am not arguing for his induction, BUT:
He had five seasons with more than 1,200 yards rushing, to say he only had three good seasons is simply false. And, for the past 3 seasons, you could very easily make the argument that he has been the best back in the NFC East, by a large margin.
Lastly, he wouldn't make the HoF OVER Monk, they play different positions. A vote for Barber (and I consider his induction unlikely) is not a vote against Monk.
