Esiason won’t ‘back down’ from LT comments

Boomer Esiaso꧑n isn’t shying away fro꧙m Lawrence Taylor’s media blitz.

The WFAN host and former Jets quarterback quickly fired back at the Giants linebacker, who called Esiason a “d—head” Tuesday in a profanity-laced radio interview on a Miami’s 640 WMEN radio.

“I don’t back down on anything that I said,”

“I♍ tried to be as understanding and as supportive of the addictions that he had, and recognize — because of my time with Stanley Wilson in Cincinnati ꦰ— that people in that situation aren’t who they really are. They just aren’t. They’re taken over by the drug.”

Esiason was one of the interviewees in the Showtime documentary on Taylor’s life – “LT: The Life & Times” – that premiered l🏅ast Friday night. Esiason said T꧂aylor was unjustly given preferential treatment by former Giants coach Bill Parcells despite his troublesome lifestyle.

“What the hell you got Boomer Esiason on something that — a piece you do of me? We can’t stand each other, he don’t know a f–k about me. What the hell’s he doing on it?” Taylor told Sid Rosenberg of 640 WMEN radio.

“First of all, Boomer’s a d—head,” Taylor added. “Hey, listen. I remember when he was there running the streets, screwing all kind of hoes. Don’t give me that holier than thou s–t. I don’t wanna hear that s–t. … He gets off on it. He’s still talking about me. I ain’t talking about him.”

Esia🍰son said the dispute between him and Taylor is not personal, but Esiason said his biggest beef is Tay꧋lor taking shots at Bill Parcells and the Giants franchise in his book.

“The only thing about where LT is wrong is I don’t hate LT,” Esiason said. “He may think I hate him. I don’t hate him. And what I do hate, is I hate the fact that he wrote the book, and ওhe basically trashed the Giants, [Bill] Parcells, [Bill] Belichick and everything else.”

Esiason similarly slammedꦑ Taylor when “60 Minutes” profiled the Giants great nearly a decadeಌ ago, leading to a similar disagreement between the two former MVPs.

“Never did I think I would see [d—head] actually next to my name in a newspaper, but that’s just the way it works — the slings and arrows that we all have to endure in the business in which we work. I’ve been down this road 10 years ago, and I’m down it again. It’s unfortunate,” Esiason said.
