Being a Giants fan, if this is true, it would be a real disappointment. Thoughts?

This has been going on for awhile and I believe we have a thread or two on it.

I think the Giants were doing some shady sh*t but that that's just my opinion from things I've heard from the media and other collectors

Sounds like perhaps he's still bitter because he didn't even get a participation trophy.

I read about this the other day and after seeing the jersey, how can he not know if it's the one he wore or not? It all seems fishy from Eli to Michael to the Giants end. Makes you really wonder

As for the idiot comment taking a dog at collectors he's prob some 35 year old trying to save up for his first gamer

I get the feeling that Strahan may know it's not all that.

If you win a Superbowl, is the bottom of the staircase the spot where you would display such a piece?

I would imagine that this to be a centerpiece to any players collection!

The jersey in the frame looks much more stained than the jersey you see in post game photos. Someone want to do some research?

Hopefully we see a resolution with this one, unlike when Brett favre faked all those jerseys

I'm sure you can find the thread on the forum. The actual article might take a bit more to find I think it was in SCD. Basically a ton of fake favres made it on the market from Brett with his paperwork, picture and signature, that were completely fake.

I recall former board member Chris Neerat (spelling?) was reporting on that..That probably goes back a good 4-5 years ago

What was the point of the Giants keeping Strahan's real SB jersey? It's not like they could put it on display in a team museum, because that would tip off Strahan.

Inselberg claims that the real jersey was sold to him.

Here's an interesting read on the Favre jerseys... (http://www.sportscollectorsdigest.com/features/favre-fakes)
