Strahan's divorce trial gets real ugly

By AUSTIN FENNER and DAVE GOLDINER
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS


New York Giants sack king Michael Strahan grimaces in the stand yesterday during his nasty divorce case with estranged wife, Jean.


Jean Strahan

Michael Strahan's nasty divorce trial hit a new low yesterday - as his estranged wife suggested the Giants sack king and handsome married TV doctor Ian Smith are more than just friends.
After the couple's marriage collapsed, "Michael moved into Ian's one-bedroom apartment," Jean Strahan told reporters after another bruising day in divorce court.

"And you can say an alternative lifestyle sprouted," she added, though her lawyer stopped her before she could elaborate.

The blond mother of two dropped the bombshell after the burly gridiron great made her cry in court when he testified that he couldn't remember her birthday.

"He basically denied we ever existed," Jean Strahan, 41, said angrily. "It was devastating to hear."

Michael Strahan himself hinted at some controversy when he said in court that he wasn't sure whether one of his love letters was addressed to "Jean" or "John."

"I've been accused ..." Strahan, 34, quipped on the witness stand before cutting himself off in midsentence and flashing his gap-toothed smile.

Strahan's lawyer rejected any hint that there's anything more than a friendship between his client and Smith.

"It sounds like sour grapes by someone who doesn't like what's going on in the court," said attorney Robert Penza.

Ian Smith derided Jean Strahan's comments as "absolutely ridiculous."

"This is laughable," said Smith, a best-selling author and medical correspondent for ABC's "The View." "I am a very happily married man."

Later, Jean Strahan's lawyer tried to back away a bit.

"I don't think she's making a definitive allegation," said Ellen Marshall, the lawyer. "Couples have private squabbles. This is one of them."

Smith's name has come up several times in the bitter Strahan vs. Strahan divorce case, which seems to get uglier by the day - rife with allegations of infidelity and arguments over who's the bigger spender.

Jean Strahan said she was miffed when her husband brought Smith into the hospital room when she gave birth to twin girls in 2004.

She also charged that Smith hooked Strahan up with extramarital affairs with women in Los Angeles and Toronto - claims the NFL star has repeatedly denied.

When things really got ugly last year, Smith put Strahan up at his upper East Side pad after the athlete's marriage imploded.

The doctor insisted he was simply doing what anyone would do for a friend in need.

"Michael Strahan is one of my best friends and needed a place to stay after he was kicked out of his own home," Smith said. "I let him sleep on my couch as any best friend would do."

Smith, 36, wed his longtime girlfriend, high-powered Chicago lawyer Triste Lieteau, last year in a glittering candlelit ceremony at the Rainbow Room.

Even before Jean Strahan's explosive comments, things were already testy as the Strahans sparred over their big-bucks divorce in Essex County Family Court in Newark.

Her lawyer, Marshall, unveiled a string of sticky-sweet love letters in an effort to debunk Michael Strahan's claim that his wife abandoned their marriage.

"It's my first day of camp, I already miss you," Strahan wrote from Giants training camp in 2004.

In another letter, the 275-pound defensive tackle wrote the words "I love you" over and over - 24 times in all.

"Thanks for taking care of me," he wrote to her after an injury. "I promise to always take care of you."

Jean Strahan kept hundreds of gooey love letters to document their romance.

But she burst into tears when Strahan, sitting just 6 feet away, said he didn't know why one was dated March 22. It turns out that is her birthday.

He also said he didn't remember several cards, including one created from the ultrasound image of their twins during her pregnancy.

"I compiled them all because it's the only history of our love," Jean Strahan said. "That's going to be the only history of us together."

I don't think they have a problem with that.

And he's 6'5" and 275, who's going to stand up to him??

The point being the gay aspect is only hinted at as part of a larger picture in an ugly trial and there is no reason to make it the main focus.

That's where it would get real interesting. It'd be tough for some special teams scrub or back up player came out and said he was gay. But for a bonafide star and a guy who has led the team for years and is probably well respected in the locker room, I'm not sure if his teammates would be as quick to turn on him.

If a gay man was ever to come out and be accepted I think it would have to be someone of superstar status.

She's going to get some money, chick needs to suck it up and deal with it. First she accuses Michael of being with one of his best friends, then it's her lawyer making this statement to try and back out of it: "I don't think she's making a definitive allegation," said Ellen Marshall, the lawyer. "Couples have private squabbles. This is one of them." Look you two don't want to be together, just end it, why drag it out and make it horrible for everyone. OMG, marriages suck..

If you happen to have a great one, good for you...feel honored because more times then not...it seems to suck.

I'm willing to bet there have been at least 100 gay/bi players in the NFL. Ok, maybe not 100, but at least 50. I mean, something like 5 or 6 have come out after retirement, but how many do you you think there have been that never said anything?

Things would change if Strahan were gay. I'm sure players would still respect him, but there would be some that wouldn't accept him as a person or want to hang out with him or change around him. It doesn't matter how big Strahan is, if he's gay he will get made fun of by the media or his teamates.. I'm sure there are some homophobes on the team.. and I'm sure some of them are bigger than he is. Say what you will, if it turns out Strahan is actually gay, he won't be as accepted as he has been.

I would guess that there are a fair amount. Homosexuality does not effect a person's athletic ability. They can train, practice and play just the same as anyone else.

I'm sure they would prefer that no one know that they are gay, but it would surprise me if there weren't a homosexual demographic represented in the NFL that comes close to equaling the percent of homosexuals per-capita in society.

I honestly don't think he is gay and not that it is wrong or anything.... but I think the wifey is just stirring the pot.


All though.... why would Stahan not get his own **** apartment if him and his lady split? What ... he cannot afford his own apt?

i stopped liking Mike when he and Brett tag teamed and Brett FAvre laid down for him so he could become the sack king... ultimately stipping it away from a player (Mark Gastenou/ Jets) who deserved to hold onto it!!

I don't blame her at all for not trying to get as much money as she can. While Strahan was off playing football, she was probably at home watching the kids. What's harder? Football or watching kids? Watching kids. She deserves it, pro athletes are overpaid.

Unless they hired a nanny.. then then she deserves nothing
I keep my kids most of the day, and I don't think I deserve 14 mil for it. It's called being a parent, taking care of YOUR responisbilities.

And for the record, I think the article itself is gay!

She deserves what?? 14 million instead of 7 million, now that's just dumb. Watching kids??? you know she doesn't watch her own kids, she's greedy plain and simple, she signed the dang pre-nup and now she wants more, kick the heifer to the curb already.

There's a difference between watching kids and being a parent. NO WAY the 2 are even slightly comaparable.

The original assertion was basically that Strahan's wife's day-to-day life was harder than her husband's life. That's not true. They were both parents but she handled the bulk of the duties during his working hours. There is no way her life was more stressful than his.

More stressful? How? He's doing what he loves to do, when people see him on the street or anywhere at all he gets praised for what he's done on the field. He only has to play football 16 days out of the year unless his team goes to the playoffs, then the most he'll play is 20. The week between games he goes to practice for a little and then relaxes the rest of the day, or does a photo shoot or signs autographs.. whatever it is that they do.. it's not a hard life. Also, at this point of his life, if he doesn't do great in football it doesn't matter, he'll go down as one of the best no matter how he plays. I can think of a lot of jobs that are way more stressful or just simply harder. Being a stay at home parent, teacher, full time student, construction, cop, firefighter, doctor,nurse just to start.. if you need me to go on I can, but I don't think it matters. If you believe that football is a very stressful job then there's something wrong with you. Especially if you think it's harder than raising kids.

Being a pro football player has it's perks but it is indeed a hard life. They have to practice year round maintanence to keep their bodies at a high level. They endure rigorous August training camps. They have complex systems and gameplans to learn. They live in constant pain from a violent game and sometimes suffer debilitatiing injuries. They are under constant scrutiny for their performance. Then they hope that at the end of their short careers, they'll have enough money to be secure and that they haven't taken too many years off of their lives.
Also, I didn't say it was harder than being a parent. Stranhan was also a parent but he also had to live the rigorous life of a football player as well.

So there is something wrong with me if i think the pressure of thousands of fans is more stressfull then hitting a nail with a hammer? I just dont see how someone can think construction, being a student or a teacher is more stressfull and harder than being a football player.

Apperiantly all construction workers do is just hit a nail with a hammer. Get real. I said harder or more stressful.. being a construction worker would be harder. If you wanna make things sound so simple you could say all football players do is catch, run and tackle and that's it, there's nothing more to the job. It'd be better next time if you could elaborate on why you think being a football player would be so stressful. I don't see the stress that all of us fans would put on them other than them performing in a game. It's not hard to avoid getting bashed by your off field life. Don't say anything bad to the media or get in any huge trouble. You know what, I'd like you to think of something that you love to do, something that you have a lot of fun doing. Now think about getting paid millions a year like Strahan does.. Now step back and look at how nice that would be then look at whatever it is you do for a living now and see what looks more appealing. If you didn't follow that, then what i was trying to say is that Strahan would have it no other way, that's what he loves to do, if he could pick another job he wouldn't, same with most football players... I don't see the stress in doing what you love and have a passion for.

You are kidding, right? There is stress in pretty much any job. Having passion for a certain line of work will allow a person to feel a sense of achievement at the end of the day but it doesn't negate the stress.
Have you ever played football, Catch? Have you ever done any kind of contact sport? My guess is that you have not since you equate football with a perpetual luxury cruise.
Imagine trying to play with your kids when your back won't allow you to stand up straight. Imagine listening to a house full of screaming kids while dealing with post concussion syndrome. Imagine limping to your child's piano recital on crutches from a torn ACL and being met by 50 fans wanting your autograph. Does this sound like a day at the beach to you?
I've heard doctors equate the physicality of playing in a pro football game to being in a low speed car wreck. That's why it's said that every year a starter plays in the NFL, it can take a year off of their life. Since you seem to think their lives are such a cakewalk, I have a challenge for you. Go find a sturdy helmet and shoulder pads. Go outside and find a wall. Position yourself 30 or so feet from the wall then run into it as hard as you can. Repeat this 25times, and be sure to make contact at varying angles. Do this every day for a year, then tell me how you feel. This isn't an arbitrary challenge. I saw this on a medical show detailing the effects of pro football on the human body.

Why are we even arguing who's job is harder, we all know that anyone who wants 14 million instead of the 7 million she signed for and gets 20,000 dollars worth of pictures of her kids done isn't overly burdened watching her brood. Trust me she's not a stay at home mom that are with her kids 24/7, money like that affords her the opportunity to get help and I'd bet my measley paychecks on it, and with her type of greed she's making sure she stays in the kind of lifestyle she has grown accostumed to.

Strahan gay rumor shot down

ABC-TV health commentator Ian Smith on Wednesday denied allegations he had a gay relationship with New York Giant Michael Strahan after the football player's wife threw him out last year. Smith called the statement "laughable" and said he was a happily married man. Meanwhile, Strahan's parents told the New York Daily News he's not gay and Smith's wife said the doctor is 100 percent straight. Even Strahan's estranged wife admitted she might have gone too far by hinting her ex and Smith are an item--but she still thinks they're dogs. "I didn't just blurt out Michael is gay with Ian," Jean Strahan, 41, said. "I really meant that it was a lifestyle change. ... Alternative to being with me was hanging out with this guy, chasing anything that moves." http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/cs-0606230161jun23,1,5246283.story

his teammates are going to think twice about showering with a 260lb gay guy.
I wonder if his gap was always that big or it just grew when he moved in with that other guy?

Little late on the gap joke.

I could be wrong here, but I sorta remember Strahan kissing his agent or his friend or someone a while ago and people called him gay then, I could be way off and thinking of someone else. I personally don't think Strahan is gay, his wife probably just shouted it out in anger.

Back on topic. Being originally from NY and being surrounded by Giants fans I hinted about this several years ago to friends. If he is or isnt its not a big deal IMO. You cant take anything away from what he does on the field.

The thread title is wrong.
The thread title should be: Michael Strahan is bisexual?
No. It as asking a question. There are no wrong questions - only wrong answers.

Unless, of course, you walked up to Michael and asked him to answer this quetion after he had put down a few dozen beers.

That would be a wrong question in that scenario.

Nice find Tiz.

As part of this week's 10th annual rookie symposium, an event aimed at preparing draft choices for life in the NFL on and off the field, the league arranged for experts in and out the game to address young players on issues ranging from financial planning to social relationships to dealing with the media....

Former defensive tackle Esera Tuaolo, who in 2002, three years after his retirement from the NFL, revealed that he is gay, was part of the panel in Monday evening's discussion with rookies highlighting diversity in the league.

Or his teamates.. I doubt he'll be as accepted in that locker room.

Who'se gonna talk **** to Strahan in the Giants locker room? Whomever it is he'll be the guy being carried out on a stretcher no doubt.


That said, its the typical nasty divorce banter, nothing of any credibility and like someone else said, even if it was.....so what....

ever notice that Giants players can't go through break ups cleanly.

Strahan gets called gay.

Bonds gets called a steroid user.

tsk tsk..

OK, so Giants teams tend to have players who are exploited in the media... and the Ravens are now known as the Baltimore Jail Birds.

Quote of the Week
"My daughters like to be accessorized. Isabella doesn't like to leave the house without a purse.''

-- Jean Strahan, who became the ex-wife of Giants defensive end Michael Strahan last week at a family court in Newark, N.J., commenting on why she needed to spend $27,000 on clothing for her twin daughters, who are not yet two.

:D She's cashing in.
