Giants | Barber says he retired because of Coughlin
Tue, 4 Sep 2007 09:56:18 -0700

ESPN.com reports retired RB Tiki Barber writes in his new book, "Tiki: My Life in the Game and Beyond," that he may still be playing in the NFL if head coach Tom Coughlin weren't still coaching the New York Giants. "If Tom Coughlin had not remained as head coach of the Giants, I might still be in a Giants uniform," Barber writes in his book, according to the New York Daily News. "(Coughlin) robbed me of what had been one of the most important things I had in my life, which was the joy I felt playing football. I had lost that. He had taken it away."

What a way to sell books, Please..The real reason behind his decision was his wife wanted him to pull the plug on his football career.. I remember seeing a 20/20 or dateline interview with he and his wife talking about how she didn't want him to play anymore.
