    Who is Michael Irwin?

    If you are going to be a Cowboy hater, at least get the name right!

    Edit: According to some NY dude named Jeff Pearlman who is trying to sell his book on the Cowboys:

    Irvin grabbed a pair of scissors, whipped back his right arm, and slashed McIver across the neck…

    What was McIver’s transgression? He wouldn’t get out of the team’s barbershop chair when Irvin showed up for a haircut. When Irvin showed up and saw McIver getting his hair cut, he screamed: “Seniority! Seniority! Seniority! Punk, get the **** out of my chair!” When McIver refused, the two got into a fistfight, which then led to Irvin STABBING HIM IN THE NECK WITH SCISSORS. Irvin then paid McIver off for six figures, charges were never filed, and the team tried to bury the story (They were not very successful in this regard).

    This book is supposed to be full of constant parties, sex, fighting, and drugs that he states fueled the 1990s Cowboys. I guess it is a good way to sell a book, that by the way just came out this week - making for my suspicious timing of your question but I put the link to the book below.

    Michael Irvin Stabbing

    Well it being so long ago and you retrieved this much information the month date and year maybe you can seek farther and share it with all of us. Well at least its not the same o same o its new trash lol what you know. Oh what time did this happen I forgot ? My bad** Well as far as I can remember it was Everett Mc-Iver and it started in a barbershop over a stupid chair Irvin wanted him to get up words were exchanged and then they began to fight. Irvin picked up some scissors and stabbed him in the neck no charges were ever filed and the two became ok again. I also think Irvin paid him for what happened. Hard to remember all of the details. Hope this works some for you..

    No, he stabbed himself right in the nose with a big pile of cocaine.
