Brett Perv
I usually am against all types of gossip and sensationalized news stories but if what deadspin.com is reporting turns out to be true, I can not avoid it. According to the blog, Brett Favre while with the New York Jets sent pictures of his genitals to the sports world’s favorite big-boobed attention whore, Jenn Sterger. This is humorous to me on so many different levels.

According to reports, while Favre was the Jets quarterback and Sterger was a sideline reporter for the team, Favre began to leave flirtatious voicemail messages on Sterger’s phone. This escalated when he started to send naughty pictures of his “crotchal” region. If you are a fan of the Anchorman movie, then you understand the reference. Clearly Sterger must have been fooled, it was probably an optical illusion caused by the pattern in the pleats of his pants. Again, another Anchorman reference, sorry I couldn’t help myself. Sterger claims to have saved all of the photos on her blackberry in order to have a laugh about it with her friends…ouch! You generally do not want girls to laugh at the sight of your penis.
Now as the news headlines have been dominated by whether or not Brett Favre is going to return, they should give this a blip on the radar because of how funny it is. It may not be funny to his family however and I do apologize if I am adding gasoline to fire but I could not resist. Undoubtedly, these rumors are going to affect his personal life and it will interesting to see if they have any effect on decision to play this season. If he returns, he will be facing all types of hecklers every time the Vikings are on the road. I bet Brett Favre is now regretting being the attention whore that he is because now he is going to get all the attention he can digest if these reports turn out to be true. Heck, he is going to get a plethora of attention even if it is not true.
I know Brett Favre is old and probably does not understand technology well as evidenced by his terrible Samsung commercials but why the ‘eff’ would you send photos of something like that to someone, especially if you had not sealed the deal, if you know what I mean. Does he not realize there is something called the internet, where celebrity photos become food for the public eye? If true, Brett Favre is probably the dumbest man in the NFL. The only excuse I have for him, is that he was probably strung out on Vicodin, had a good workout on his Bowflex and felt a little courageous. Brett, I know you do not want the public to dictate whether or not you should continue playing, but I think this is the best time for you to just hang ‘em up and stay out of the spotlight for a long long time.
