  1. Gastineau was an electrifying performer. That said, I think that a mature grown man who (presumably) is financially well set, and living his post football years in comfort and with the admiration and respect of anyone who ever followed the NFL, would avoid the bad optics, with which he colors himself, by throwing his whiny tantrum.

  2. Interesting that Bubba Franks held back Favre when Favre started to move towards Strahan to congratulate him. Was the sack planned?

  3. If Brett Farve would’ve dodged Strahan like he’s dodged the investigation for his role in stealing from Mississippi welfare then this whole thing would have never happened.

  4. After watching the "you hurt me" video, I thought Gastineau was referring to a sexual encounter he and Favre had in the showers. I thought maybe Favre didn't use any lube as promised.

  5. I agree with Gastineau. Rolling over to give someone a record, is shameful and unfair to the real record holder. We have seen this in sports before, and everyone acts like it's heroic to cheat to give away a record that wasn't earned.

  6. If this had been any sack other than the sack that put Strahan atop the record board nobody would have batted an eye. Everyone would have just chalked it up to Farve being old and slow and making a business decision at the end of a game that was essentially over. Not only that, but it was a meaningless game to begin with since GB was already locked in to their wildcard position and NY was already out of the playoffs. No need to take any extra hits. Did this guy go back through every NYG game and watch every Strahan sack to make sure the QB was trying as hard as they could to avoid it? A sack in week 2 is the same as a sack in week 17.

  7. what a disgusting act by Favre..it wasnt even a dive it was bending down in front of strahan like a little ponce what a poof..man I have changed my mind about favre..that is not a sack

  8. I mean let’s be honest everyone saying Brett was happy for strahan to break the record so maybe it was setup for him to get it I would be mad too like u did it on purpose

  9. Sure Favre took a dive and got buddy the record. Get over it man, you’re letting in ruin your whole life

  10. What did he expect Favre to do? Warp out of the way of Strahan? He was dead to rights, and it was a good moment for Michael.
