Saint Favre looking to be the talk of Super Bowl weekend

Whitlock

In this case, Whitlock is 100% right.  The league should be investigating this. 

Also, Whitlock is a master of puns.  Probably unintentional, but they're still there. 

But it seemed like most of the media folks I monitor on Twitter —- except Dan Wetzel and Mike Florio — were afraid to touch the Favre situation

Sterger's the victim. Why shouldn't she milk it to her advantage?

My favorite is the title:

Favre gives Goodell a prickly dilemma

my fav line

It does not matter that Jenn Sterger's on-full-display, fake breasts were her only qualification to land a job with the Jets. She should be afforded protection from harassment.

But... but... she's since had them reduced!

It's true the media didn't follow this at all, despite fans wanting to keep abreast of it

The NFL is now reportedly looking into it.

Favre faces more allegations from his New York days
Posted by Mike Florio on October 8, 2010 7:21 PM ET
Earlier tonight, our friends Adam Schein and Chris Carlin of SNY's Loudmouths asked me whether the NFL will discipline Vikings quarterback Brett Favre in the wake of the new evidence indicating that Favre possibly exposed a former Jets in-house sideline reporter to unwanted advances and/or inappropriate photos via text message.  I told them that, even though the NFL has now acknowledged that it's looking into the situation, the absence of any evidence of a pattern of misconduct likely would preclude discipline under the league's Personal Conduct Policy.

So much for the absence of a pattern.

Deadspin's exposure of Favre's alleged exposure apparently has prompted one of the Jets' former massage therapists to come forward with an account of Favre pursuing two massage therapists -- and eventually sending them "nasty" text messages.

The husband of one of the women took offense, and supposedly dialed the number from which Favre sent the text messages.  "I called him on his phone and told him I wanted an apology," the man told A.J. Daulerio of Deadspin.  "He acted all arrogant.  He refused to apologize."

The couple claims they contacted a lawyer regarding a potential sexual harassment case, but they were told that, because the women are contractors and not employees, they could not pursue the matter.  (Maybe they should have talked to a better lawyer; the specific status a person holds in a workplace doesn't provide immunity from the sexual harassment laws.  Otherwise, everyone would hire contractors and the business world would be Sterling Cooper Draper Whoremonger all over again.)

The couple also claims that the text messages have been saved, and that they have not yet decided whether to go public.

If they do, the NFL will have no choice but to expand the investigation to include these new contentions.

Lolz. This could get really cool.      Is Tiger Favre too much to hope for?

He's like the no-game-having version of Tiger.

Tiger: assistants provide him with professionally screened hookups in every city
Favre: gets hopped up on Vicodin and whiskey and sloppily emails pictures of his cock to women he barely knows

Tiger's assistants should be fired for setting him up with fugly waitresses.

Anyone else find it ironic that a lesser known Latina chick with a nice ass gets a few remarks thrown her way and it's headline news, Favre sexually harasses a Playboy/Maxim model/Jets employee and it's barely mentioned anywhere except for Deadspin.

I think it has less to do with protecting Favre than it has to do with the big media outlets not wanting to "legitimize" Deadspin. The same thing happens when stories get broken by the National Enquirer.

[SD]

Well they have Steger's allegations, other members of the Jets organization, and voicemail messages that sound an awful lot like Favre. All it took for the Sainz crap to break was a second party overhearing comments. I think it's 100% the media trying to protect Favre's middle America 'Good Ole Boy Brett' image.

I know you're just trying to make him likable. Jury out.
