Of course he deserves it. Sapp knows it too. He's just being a jerk to be a jerk.

i agree 100% i don't know what Sapps problem is with Strahan but thats absurd to say that Strahan is not a 1st ballot
although I do think Strahan should get into the Hall , I don't think he is a first ballot guy. to me, he seemed like a one trick pony and unless he was sacking the qb , you really didn't here his name that much. I also think his sack record will forever be tarnished because of the way Favre handed it to him, great,great player but , not the first time around.
"Eh, while Derrick Brooks was a mighty fine linebacker, his name doesn’t resonate with the others Sapp mentioned. He certainly doesn’t stack up with linebackers of the past who have been inducted, either." - NewsdayI think... I don't know what this is... I feel so strange.... I .... I think my feelings just got hurt.... I don't even know. My face hurts right now. Why is this happening?!
this quote is mindbogglingly dumb. whoever wrote this for Newsday obviously has never watched football
Have to piggyback. What a dumbass writer. That was beyond insulting to even the casual fan. FIRE HIS ASS, Newsweek!
My vote is YES to Strahan getting in. He absolutely deserves it. Shouldn't even be a talking point anymore.
Strahan was well known, but became a household name when Favre gave him the sack. For many that detracted from Strahan's record. Why no mention of Simeon Rice who was just as good, but no publicity.
He doesn't, but his teeth do.

my question is.. Had Favre not giving up that sack the way he did would that the perception that Strahan is not a first ballot in some? that play should have no merit on the kind of career he had.
again I've seen this guy week in and week out and trust me when i tell you that he would change the game by himself i mean it. Strahan didn't have the D that Sapp lets keep that in back of our heads.. he (Stra92) was the focus of every offensive game plan every week, still dominated
Not by choice but I've seen him week in and week out as well since they show all the games here in New England as long as it doesn't conflict with the Pat's. 2nd time he'll get in. Take that to the bank.
Without question, Strahan belongs in.
No way he's 1st ballot worthy but 2nd or 3rd time sure!
you are either good enough to get in or you are not. I don't think it's even questionable he's a HOFer.
Is Simeon Rice eligible yet?

maybe, but there is an extra level of prestige to being selected a 1st ballot selection
Sapp clarified his comments on the Rich and Booger show saying that he thought Strahan was a HOfer, but his resume did not stack up against guys on the final ballot this year
Is Simeon Rice eligible yet?
last played in 2007. Now rice was a great player and should be considered but I just don't see he as HOF worthy.
