In a segment on NBC's "Football Night in America" last night, the network's NFL desk anchors and commentators were asked what they've done to "green their routines." While Jerome Bettis uses the cold setting for laundry and Keith Olbermann forgoes bottled water, Cris Collinsworth said he is walking to the studio every Sunday, and former New York Giant and Cadillac Escalade pitchman Tiki Barber announced that he has taken to transit.
From the NBC web site:
Tiki Barber: Doesn’t drive anymore, and no longer takes taxis. When he travels forwork, he rents a hybrid vehicle. Relies on mass transit while in NewYork City -- buses and the subway. And he’s found that taking masstransit is more efficient than driving or taking a cab.
Collinsworth and Barber join fellow sports stars Sean Avery (and teammates), Cliff Lee, and several Baltimore Orioles in car-free commuting. How about it, Jeter?
Note to Tiki and Cris: Streetfilms would love to film your commute. Contact Clarence if you're up for it.
