Strahan tired of Favre lovefest

Michael Strahan is sick and tired of the national Brett Favre lovefest. The veteran defensive end wondered aloud yesterday why he and other long-suffering pros in the Giants' locker room aren't getting nearly the attention being showered on the Packers' Canton-bound quarterback this week. Strahan considers Favre a friend and will always be indebted to him for not-too-subtly letting Strahan clinch the all-time single season sack record in 2002, but enough's enough.

Wishful thinking st857 - did you happen to watch the Boy's game last weekend? The road warriors are heading to Green Bay and your rant will become silly as we look at it Monday morning.Go Giants!

Giants by 3, Strahan and Osi with at least 2 sacks each. Farve will have no choice.......LETS GO BIG BLUE

I will be taping the Giants jersey on my son this weekend lol...

he should forever be a Favre supporer after the dive.

Maybe he meant to say this to himself, but the gap in the teeth allowed it to leave his mouth.

Make sure your wife takes pictures on her phone jackmanrob.

I will tape her up to....wait now I have plans for the weekend....awesome

Remember to tell them it's just a "joke".

I am so sick of the ranting and whining by the Giants, Eli is always crying about how no one gives him credit, Strahan should find himself a good dentist and Jacobs needs to be fitted for a muzzle. I can't wait to watch Greenbay destroy them this weekend. And by the way , who other than Strahan could ever say anything bad about Favre....go Greenbay!!!!!

What did Strahan say bad about Favre?

January 18, 2008  08:01 AM ET

What is it with making fun of Strahan's trademark gap? It has been a Farve lovefest this season - he is right. As a matter of fact he is the cover of Sports Ilustrated this week.

The Packers are getting more attention because they have a better record, have a longer tradition of winning, have a shoe-in Hall of Famer at QB, have more fans, and are playing at home.

What is the mystery, Strahan? You're a big boy. Beat the Packers and shut everyone up. But wondering why a more popular team gets more press is just odd, or stupid. You can't blame the fan base for not flocking to you banner - you need to make a better banner.

cah2003 The only whining has come from the Packers defense saying the Giants hit them too hard and said " bad " things to them when they played earlier this year. But they say it will not bother them this time and they will not get any more personal fouls...blah blah blah...

January 18, 2008  08:22 AM ET

st857 knows what he is talking about. the pack can contain the DE's. easily.

January 18, 2008  08:25 AM ET

perhaps if favre held out in pre-season, ran his mouth in the press, and came off as a "me me me" player, the nation wouldn't care for him.

see the pattern strahan?

Boy, the Giants are showing that they lack class since winning last week. All they are doing is whining and badmouthing other teams and players.. Show some class New York and shut up and win the game and earn respect that way. NOT by your big mouths...
Favre has more class in his big toe than the Giant have!!! Go Favre!!!

What is it with Strahan and the rest of the motormouths at the Giant's camp lately. Yada, Yada, Yada! Why don't they shut up and put up on the football field. But that might be tough especially if Farve has a good game. If Brett does play well - Packers by 10!
