Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre responded on social media to a video of Mark Gastineau confronting him about taking a record-breaking sack.
ESPN released a clip of its 30 for 30 documentary “New York Sack Exchange,” which showed Mark Gastineau, one of the members of that famed “New York Sack Exchange,” confronting Favre.
Gastineau told him how upset he was about the sack he took at the end of the 2002 season. The sack allowed New York Giants pass rusher Michael Strahan to reach 22.5 sacks that season, breaking the NFL’s single-season sack record.
Brett Favre infamously gave himself up to Strahan.
Late Tuesday, he took to X to clarify what he called a “small dustup” with Gastineau over the sack.
Since Favre was in the mood to clear the air, former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens thought it was a good idea for him to keep sharing.

Owens jumped on X and quote-tweeted Favre’s post to ask him to clear the air on the alleged misappropriation of funds.
Brett Favre Sent Well Wishes To Randy Moss Amid Frightening Health Status

Moss’ son, former NFL tight end Thaddeus Moss, condemned the “disgusting” post.
Brett Favre also took to social media and stated, “Prayers to Randy Moss and his family.🙏.”
He added: “Randy is and will always be one of the all-time greats to ever run a route. Definitely on the NFL WR Mt. Rushmore.”
Thaddeus made it clear that was written wasn’t true as he wrote to Favre on X: “Brett, the support is appreciated, truly. This is not true. My father will address the world when he is ready to.”
Pro Football Hall of Famer and ESPN NFL analyst Randy Moss announced this past week that he would be stepping away from the network as he and his family battle “something internally.”
He has not spoken out about his ailment.
Former NFL Quarterback Brett Favre Lashes Out At Taylor Swift, Accuses Her Of Using Her “Influence” For Foul Reasons

Former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre has taken a swipe at pop sensation Taylor Swift for political reasons ahead of the upcoming 2024 presidential elections.
The 11-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro is known to be a supporter of former President Donald Trump and has previously endorsed him.
He’s since taken a shot at Swift, who recently endorsed Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes informing everyone that he wouldn’t endorse a candidate.
“Good take by Mahomes,” he wrote in a tweet.
“I see a lot of celebs trying to influence their audience instead of letting the people think for themselves. If the best choice for them ain’t clear and they’re easily swayed by their fav pop artist, it’s not going to be a good thing.”

Brett Favre Was Destroyed In His Comments Following His Tweet
The tweet was likely directed at Swift, given the “pop artist” part. However, fans did not appreciate such a message coming from Brett Favre, given his recent legal issues.
The former quarterback has been called out over the allegations claiming he improperly received $1.1 million from a nonprofit organization that misused welfare money in 2020.
“That’s right, real Patriots like yourself steal welfare money!” one fan wrote.
“Does this include you coming out to say you’re voting for Trump or ? It’s no different than Taylor endorsing Harris. Weird take,” another asked.
“Is it unpatriotic to steal money from poor people?” a third questioned.
“Stop acting like anything you say should be taken to heart,” someone wrote.
“What about you putting yourself before all and stealing from the poor?” another comment read.
Favre should have known such comments would only serve as an avenue for backlash, but it appears he’s not going to allow the looming probe to keep him quiet.
