Former Giants Star Tiki Barber Getting Divorce From Wife Ginny Barber
I never did like Tiki Barber and I liked him less after he said this to Sports Illustrated a few years ago:
Tiki Barber: nonthreatening, articulate, funny, intelligent, self -aware and hugely confident without seeming like an ego-maniac. And then there is his diction, which is ethnically and geographically neutral, perfect for a news anchor.
We grew up in a white middle-class community and had a mom who emphasized education and lived that neutrality, Tiki says. She didn’t speak that typical African-American diction.
He was such a self-absorbed, smug, ego-maniac that I was glad when he retired and I literally change the station when he is on TV, but I will give him credit for one thing.
He is getting divorced from his wife and there are no porn stars, reality show women, Nazis or Gloria Allred involved in the proceedings (please pray it stays that way).
Here are the details from the NY Post:
Tiki Barber has split with his wife, Ginny, after 11 years of marriage, Page Six has learned. The former New York Giants running back and “Today” show correspondent has been living apart from Ginny, a former fashion publicist and full-time mom whom he started dating 16 years ago while they were both students at the University of Virginia. A source confirmed to us, “They have separated and have been apart for a few months.” The couple have two sons A.J., 7, and Chason, 6. Our source added that Tiki and Ginny “remain friends and will make sure this will cause the least possible disruption for their sons.”
i'll think about tht
I remember those remarks. He's said a couple of more ignorant comments that made me lose whatever passing interest I had in him. Not to mention the little shots he took at his former teammates before they went on to win a SuperBowl without him.

I love how you guys take one thing and run with it without knowing all the facts. The guy is an incredibly kind person and not self aborbed. But whos to blame your ignorance, you saw the cover and never read the book. get over yourselves. Yes, divorce is rough but its a split on good terms and its amazing how few you see these days. give credit where credit is due and stop crying. you know nothing about the brother… thats painfully obvious
I met Tiki Barber when the Giants played the Titans back in the 2006 season (Titans won by a field goal). Attempted to get his autograph along with a bunch of others before the game. This guy was an asshole and only 2 white ladies received an autograph while looking at the rest of us with disdain as if he couldn't stand to be in our presence. He had a decent game, but he's arrogant.
@Jon…If he was kind to you then that's great, but many people took issue with Barber's comments and more than a few fans can corroborate similar stories like mine. Take off the cape.
First off never assume I write anything without knowing what I am talking about. I covered Tiki for years and that wasn't the first ignorant comment he made.
And obviously you didn't read the whole article because if you did you would have seen I did give him credit, so what are you talking about?
Don't assume you know anything. I am sure Ben Roethlisberger was kind to a lot of people
like chicks in bathrooms
How can you even defend the man? Are you a rat too? Any man who leaves his wife while she is pregnant is a moron. Any man who leaves his wife for another woman is a jerk. Any man who leaves his wife for another woman while she is PREGNANT is a monster!
Frank, i didnt say i didnt appreciate peoples position and i do understand yours. But i can tell you from personal experience that EVERY athlete doesnt sign autographs white or black and can act like they are swamped. i personally have never had issue with white people all around me and hes come up on two occasions and signed. We also saw a local story (upper state new york) where he literally helped a woman carry a stroller down a flight of steps without her even having to ask. she later reported it to local news. he was there for an appearance and everyone thought he was great. In my opinion, that say more than enough. I truly hate you feel that way based on an autograph signing and the race is not an issue. thats ignorance.
now stories of the 23 yr old intern -it never ends
