It's not exactly a secret that Giants defensive end Michael Strahan is friends with Packers quarterback Brett Favre. After all, in the above photo, Favre has just taken a dive to hand Strahan the all-time single-season sack record.
But Strahan likes Favre so much that he said during his press conference today that he'd be rooting for Favre this weekend -- except for the little fact that he's playing against him.
If I were a fan, I'd want Brett Favre to win this game," Strahan said. "But the problem is I'm playing in this game, so I don't want Brett Favre to win this one."
The national media seem to be firmly in the "Favre getting to the Super Bowl is destiny" camp, to such an extent that it almost seems as if there's some kind of "Midwest bias" in effect. And it turns out that the players on the Giants even love Favre.

It is kind of Ironic the Eli still has acne like little league, from his helmet and chin strap. and Farve almost needs a walker.
Peace.....Iron Mike

If Favre needs a walker, i'd hate to see what you'd say about all the QB's he's outplayed this year (which basically rounds off to everyone but Tom Brady).
