Dont see Military hero in there anywhere. Huh guess I was right AGAIN.

Again the mans military record has nothing to do with what he has become now. As I stated before he will ALWAYS have my respect for serving in the military.

When will blacks stop trying to win the approval of whites and be yourself for once.

A happy go lucky tap dancing bear is much better than some dull, boring, know it all already, choose a color human.

So a black man who reached the pinnacle as an athlete and is smart enough to get hired to do pre-game shows by a major network morphs into a minstrel performer if he appears on a daytime talk/entertainment show?

lol. Strahan is a smart guy. And I hope he IS laughing all the way to the bank, OP. He obviously enjoys himself and his life. Sorry if you don't.

Why are you attacking Michael Straham? Because he isn't like some African American athletes that have 10 kids by 9 different women or beating their wives or have blown millions of dollars?

Sometimes the hatred on these posts amaze me....good for him, he is doing something after his NFL career...at least he is more likeable than Ryan Seacrest who I'm sick of seeing on every show( I'd rather see Michael than Ryan on New Years Eve). Jealous much?

Have you ever stopped to think maybe it's not an act but this is his real self? I mean there are folks who are genuinely happy. Full disclosure I've never watched the show in question so don't know what exactly he did to set you off.

It's bizarre really. I would never have made such a conclusion as the OP. He's basically saying becuase he is happy he is trying to endear himself to Whites.
