I dunno what the Giants' cap situation is, but I'd offer that in a heartbeat. And its perfectly understandable for Mike to demand more. He's said to be happy in retirement and he just took a TV job...wouldn't want to risk burning any bridges.
That speculation was going on when he was still 'considering' retirement. I don't think he is coming out of retirement. Who knows what his personal workout regiment is like? Theres two weeks until week one and he has been decidedly retired for a while now so I doubt he is keeping in 'football shape'. I think the Giants chances of getting Strahan back are slim to none. Believe me I would love for him to come on for another year but I just don't think its in the cards.
