Media Darling/Big Weirdo Creep

So the Brett Favre/Jenn Sterger rumors are back (here if you haven't been following), with Deadspin claiming to have copies of the alleged sexts of Brett's manhood to prove it (I didn't check it out, but I can only assume it has Tom Jacksons lips attached to it).  As big as that news is on its own (or not big? maybe someone that saw the pics can comment) Brett made even bigger news today when he ducked the media on questions pertaining to the issue.

If you recall, Deadspin.com made allegations prior to this season that Brett Favre may have sent Jenn Sterger adulterous photos of himself and left questionable phone messages for her.

Sterger is a former contractor of the New York Jets and was working closely with the team as a sideline reporter when Favre was their quarterback.  Until today, Deadspin had not put forth any evidence to back up Sterger’s claims, but they have now posted some messages and photos.

“I’m not getting into that. I’ve got my hands full with the Jets,” was the only statement Favre made on the matter when it came up at his press conference today.

This is a man who basically invites the media to set up camp outside his Mississippi home each summer to watch him ride around on his lawn mower in his famous Wrangler jeans while he "decides" whether or not he's going to play one more season.  This is the man who ruined Sportscenter for myself and countless other sports fans, doing more to push the network further into the depths of Entertainment news than Barry Bonds, Tonya Harding, Lebron James, Roger Clemens and OJ Simpson combined.  

So on behalf of all sports fans, tired of their July and August sports news being hijacked season after season, we sincerely thank you Jenn Sterger.  You've done the impossible. You manged to get Favre to back away from the limelight.  The sports world is now a better place because of you.

PS. This blog is dedicated to AJ, one of the most devoted Favre haters of his generation. Happy Birthday AJ.
