It’s safe to say Super Bowl week has not been without it fair share of off-the-field drama. Chris Culliver outed himself as a bigot. Dan Marino admitted to having an affair in 2005 and father a child with Donna Savattere . And now former Giants wideout Amani Toomer has blasted Ray Lewis for the retiring linebacker’s self-serving attitude and antics. “It’s definitely all about him,” Toomer said in an interview with USA Today , focusing on Lewis’ retirement tour. “Once a guy goes to the center of the field, goes into the victory formation on the last play of his last home game… I just don’t think the Giants or any organization I’ve ever been a part of, even growing up, would allow somebody to single themselves out like that.” Toomer than compared Lewis to The Rock, labeled him a “caricature” of himself and added: “If you want to say you’re Mr. Religious and all of that, have a clean record. Don’t say all of that stuff if you know there’s stuff that might come back. Those are the things that, when I look at him, I just think hypocrisy.” Among other items on Lewis’ controversial resume, Toomer is referring to the linebacker’s 2000 arrest for murder, as well as his six children by four different women. What do you think of Amani’s comments? Fair or foul?
