McCoy calls Umenyiora a 'ballerina'

POSTED: Tuesday, September 25, 2012, 6:49 PM

Eagles running back LeSean McCoy is having a little fun again with Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora, with whom he has feuded over the years.

McCoy, in an ESPN interview, said: “Osi, to be honest, he is a good player. I think he thinks that he is better than what he really is. I think he is a ballerina in a Giants uniform. Other than that, that is all I got to say about Osi.”

The McCoy-Umenyiora and McCoy feud began in 2011, when McCoy tweeted that Unemyiora is  “Overrated n soft 3rd best d-line on his team honestly.”

Umenyiora called McCoy, "Lady Gaga” and “a little girl.”

Just some fun between high-profile NFL stars. The Eagles and Giants, of course, meet on Sunday night.

    McCoy looked like a ballerina trying to run down Sanders at the end of the first half Sunday.

    I hope Shady can run extra fast Sunday! I'd hate to have that big monster bearing down on me!

    Well Shady can talk the talk, but can he walk the walk? Doubtful with Andy giving him the ball 9 times a game.

    Shady has walked the walked - and ran all over the Giants REPEATEDLY. He gets to talk some talk if he wants.

    Considering the state of the Eagles' offensive line, it's probably not the best time to trash talk.

    We don't how good the OL can be in the run department since they're seldom called on to execute it. We all know Reid's (and Moronweg' s) aversion to running the ball so, until they call it more frequently. And I don't mean calling it just to satisfy the fans as the often do, But calling it STRATEGICALLY. A word they should look up in Websters.

    I admire Shady. Of all the Eagles, Shady, Vick and DJax have the heart you don't mind going into battle with. That's is more than any display of heart demonstrated by anybody on the Eagles Offensive Line.

    Dexter, you can't be serious, Jackson was the cause of the end of the half debacle. He was looking for a soft place to lay down so he wouldn't get hit instead of getting into the end zone. Vick is tough, but plain stupid sometimes. Shady..I agree...even though that was a very weak effort to make the tackle on the lay that should have never happened.

    The last Eagle I've seen with and heart was Dawk. Before him, Bill Bergey.

    Ok, yeah, it's a bad idea to be antagonizing the opponent, etc, but "ballerina" is kinda funny.

    Superbowl champions who have the stench of being beaten badly in their noses by the Eagles over the last 10 years smelling Vick's blood in the water. Just what you want to do, give um clippings for the team board. Real smart! Real smart!
