Re: Why Cowboys WR Michael Irvin Has Never Criticized Eagles Fans For Cheering Career-Ending In I met Irvin once at a charity basketball game hosted at University of Arizona between Cowboys and 49ers current/prior players. I was surprised he was such a class act. I was doing a high school journalism workshop during the summer and was at the game to get goods for my story for the paper. There were a couple kids there who wanted a picture with him, and I asked if he would ablige. He wouldn't take the picture until I promised him that the it truly was for them, and not for me lol. Super athlete too. He was dunking all throughout the game.
Re: Why Cowboys WR Michael Irvin Has Never Criticized Eagles Fans For Cheering Career-Ending In Irvin has been saying for years that he doesn't have a problem with Eagles fans. He called them one of the top fan bases in sports.

Re: Why Cowboys WR Michael Irvin Has Never Criticized Eagles Fans For Cheering Career-Ending In I don't like irvin as an analyst but I've never viewed him as a bad human being. To my knowledge, he's just always been opinionated and liked to party.
