Goodbye, Playmaker
As The Mighty MJD mentioned yesterday, it's official: Michael Irvin is out at ESPN. We're not sure what more we can say about this; we're so sad to see him go, even if the beleaguered closed captioning typists over there don't feel the same way.
Consider this our open thread to say goodbye, to share our favorite Irvin on ESPN moments. Nothing can quite beat the Tom Jackson, "Are you retarded?" moment ... but there are so many to choose from.
