MICHAEL STRAHAN NABS POST-NFL GIG AT FOX: Plus, former Giant gears up for annual charity golf tournament.
*When the NFL returns this fall, freshly-retired New York Giants star Michael Strahan will be sitting among Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long and Jimmy Johnson as an analyst on "Fox NFL Sunday."
Fox signed the former defensive end for $2 million after a fierce bidding war with CBS. NBC and ESPN were also said to have talked with Strahan as well, reports the New York Post.
Meanwhile, Strahan is also scheduled to host a charity golf tournament in New York this weekend (June 29-30) along with law firm Dreier LLP.
This year's event, which benefits the charities Children's Rights and Keep A Child Alive, features a private concert by an 11-time Grammy Award-winning singer and an auction of sports memorabilia by Strahan on Sunday, June 29, followed by a celebrity golf tournament on Monday, June 30 featuring current and former professional football, baseball, basketball and hockey stars.
Celebrity golfers include Marcus Allen, Eric Dickerson, Deacon Jones, Julius Erving, Alonzo Mourning, Marshall Faulk, Ahmad Rashad, Ozzie Smith and Darryl Strawberry, among other celebrities and athletes. Expected celebrity guests at TAO include Justin Tuck, Nicole Murphy, Spike Lee, Charles Oakley and Angie Harmon.
Last year, the tournament raised more than $300,000 for children's charities.
