Tiki Barber Doesn’t Regret Retiring

Former New York Giants running back Tiki Barber is still happy with his decision to leave football even though his former team is headed to a Super Bowl just one season after his retirement.

“It’s interesting,” Tiki said on his Tuesday night Sirius NFL Radio show. “My wife asked me that exact question.” “So you have to feel, even just a little bit of remorse that you left early,” she asked. “I said Honey, I’m trying to make myself think that and wish I was still there. But I’m not. I was done with football. In my heart I knew I didn’t want to do it anymore.”

If that’s true, I really have to question how much he ever loved the game of football. How could anyone who truly loves the game not regret missing an opportunity to play in the Super Bowl?
