Mr. Barber, Good luck at NBC-The Today show. I agree that what ocurred on 4/16/2007 on the campus of VT was truly sad and tragic. I think that wat the John F. Kennedy said, and I am parphrasing, "anyone with the will and is willing to die can kill anyone no matter how good security is" Some events in history will always be a san reminder how precious life is and let us not become bitter but rather celebrate life and enjoy our friends n loved ones.

Mr. Barber, I think you did an excellent job reporting on the tragedy at Virginia Tech. You came across as both informed and compassionate. I look forward to hearing more stories from you.

Tiki, good luck with The Today show. I have watched and admired you as a football player (even though I am from South Jersey originally and am an avid Eagles fan), now residing in South Florida for 21 years and am a Dolphin fan as well, but I do wish you the best. I think you will do great and add a "spark" with your great smile.

Tiki...You are a class act, the perfect gentleman who is a much needed role model for kids...showing them how to treat others with courtesy and respect.

Mr. Barber,(that sounds so formal since I have been watching you in my home for many years) My husband and I have enjoyed your football career and your time on Fox. I would wake early just to catch you on Tuesdays. Even though I will miss you on Fox, I am sure to tune in and catch you on Today. Good luck and best wishes to you and your family as you continue to shine in your future endeavors.

Hi Tiki: Welcome to the show-now tell Matt to quit sniveling about gas prices. Here in San Luis Obispo (calif.) gas is $3.54! You guys back east have it easier!

Tiki, I have been very impressed with you and your work on Today. You are a wonderful addition to this great show. You are intelligent, charming,funny and very handsome. You certainly made the right career decision to go out on top for your game; you have brought that success to your "new game". Good luck.

Tiki, You will do a good job for the Today Show. I followed your career in the NFL and I was happy to know you were walking away from the game in one piece. I am proud that you have another career after football. Good luck!

It is unfortunate, Tiki, that you chose to go out the way you did. I admired your playing ability but not your comments or your actions in the past two years. Those are not comments of leaders. Sorry, but I back Eli on this. You were and are out of line. You should have taken a lesson from Phil Simms. The Giants treated him horribly at the end of his career and Parcells was no treat for him but he has never slagged either. That, my friend, is called class.

I've been a Giants fan for over 40 years. I was a fan of yours until last year when you started to see yourself as bigger and more important than the team, and took pulbic shots at your coach. Comments such as the ones you've been making about your coach are cheap shots and show a real lack of class, and also the size of your ego. Everyone that I know that is a Giants fan, without exception, all say the same thing: who knew Tiki Barber was such a jerk? I see Phil Simms feels this way too, maybe you could learn something from him. You have ruined your image for a lot of your former fans, and I'm sure teammates too.

TIKI Barber is not a jerk, he had to do what was best for him. No one knows what happened behind closed doors. I am sure that anyone else would have done the same thing. I wish Tiki the best of luck on the Today Show. I know that he will do a wonderful job by the grace of God. I also have a MAJOR crush on him, and i think need to be shown more often on the Today Show.

Tiki,
Having watched you play at Virginia at the same time my son attended the University and having continued to watch as your career evolved, I have been as proud of you as your mother must be. I have, however, been let down lately by your opinions getting in the way of your journalistic abilities. A true journalist never shares or airs his opinions. You say you want to tell the "truth", but your are expressing your personal truths. Not everyone wants to hear them. Please don't crash and burn your first year. Your natural class and talent have brought you this far. Reclaim your humility and give up the "lightning rod" approach to journalism.
