As if a $15M divorce settlement and $18k a month in child support wasn't enough, Jean Strahan, ex-wife of Michael Strahan decided to sell off a few of the items from their her $3.6M mansion in Montclair, NJ. She sold cocktail dresses, handmade rugs, antiques, and a couple of TVs among other things. A diehard Giants fan said he got two televisions for $100.

She advertised the garage sale in a local paper and tons of people were lining up to take a look at the stuff. Since she doesn't exactly need the money, this was just a way of her throwing it in Michael Strahan's face. The police were called multiple times to chase away reporters.

By the way, there's no truth to the rumor that among the items being sold was a cancelled check written to Brett Favre with "Sack record" in the memo.
