Osi Done For The Year

Sounds like Strahan cleaned his wife's clock in the divorce court today.

"Last year, A state Superior Court Judge awarded Jean Strahan $15.3 million, in addition to child support.

Strahan paid more than half the award. He appealed, arguing the child support was too high and that his ex-wife got everything she was due and is not entitled to $6.5 million from a pre-nuptial agreement. According to the opinion, the Strahans reached a private settlement about the unpaid money.

The judges today said it was unfair Strahan was required to pay 91 percent of the child support since his ex-wife, Jean Strahan, was well-educated and employable.

"Both parents have a shared obligation to support their children," wrote Judge Lorraine Parker.

Jean Strahan's "employment opportunities were, in all likelihood, enhanced by her celebrity marriage. There is no question that as a healthy, educated, 41-year-old, (she) is capable of earning her own income," wrote Parker, who was joined by Judges Rudy Coleman and Thomas Lyons.

The panel ordered a trial court judge in Essex County to reconsider the child support and to determine what needs the children have that are distinct from their mother.
"Some of the expenses claimed by (Jean Strahan) clearly should have been deleted by the court," wrote the court in a 23-page ruling.

A few of the expenses the court questioned were: that "the children" paid for a trip for their nanny and her family to Jamaica and gave their grandmother diamond jewelry.

The panel also singled out that no explanation was given for why the girls required $30,000 in landscaping, or what $3,000 in audio visual expenses provided for the girls.

The couple married in July, 1999 and in October their twin daughters were born. He filed for divorce in March, 2005. "

Note he DOESN't have to pay for the insurance policy because he is retired.

This begs the question:

"If he un-retires, could her attorneys re-open that issue?"

Don't know if this makes it more or less likely for him to comeback.

Maybe he's not as hungry as he would have been if he lost.
