Hilariously Gross Brett Favre News To Surface Soon

http://deadspin.com/5603792/hilariously-gross-brett-favre-news-to-surface-soon

And it has nothing to do with his alleged retirement this time around. No, no — it turns out the heroic Gunslinger of yore has a little scoundrel in him, too. But you must wait, mongrels.

Here's somewhat of a [sic'd] clue:

PS, when the texts/pics/calls started... [Redacted] asked Peter King about the phone number.. and King said he didn't have that number for him. So this is a completely separate bat phone that no one including his best friends knows about. He'd ask me to send him video again.. or some **** every once in a while.. like I "did before'.. (and I never did) which means, this scum bag prolly was doing this to multiple women...
I don't want to get famous for this.. or have anything to do with this.. but.. I hate the fact that every one loves on this guy when I can't even stand to watch his wranglers commercials.
He's a pro.

To make this even more interesting — the person on the receiving end of Favre's clumsy overtures is someone you're probably familiar with as well.

But be patient. We've been patient, so you must be, too. This person's story could do wonders for keeping Favre's name out of our football conversation for the next three months. Let's just say this — you'll never be able to think of Brett Favre without thinking about Crocs.

Apparently Deadspin plans to reveal who the woman is, but I don't see anywhere that it says that. My initial thought was Rachel Nickles, however Doug and Mike were saying it was Jen Sterger...

holy ****. Jen Sterger. I can't blame the guy for that. I don't think any one of us could resist that piece of ass, married or not.

Favre is quite a character. I would love to see a biographical movie about him some day.

[JayMKE]

Ugh, Gawker.

Favre seems like the kind of guy who would trade pic for pic. He also seems like the kind of guy that would rock some crocs.

My guess - we're going to be seeing some favre dong real quick here.

[crkone]

I mean seriously, who hasn't fapped while wearing crocs?

The best part is that by 8pm tonight, most likely 95% of the residents in Wisconsin will know this story. And all the details.

Which will be about 70% more people than could tell you what is going on with health-care reform or any other serious issue of the day.

Get ready to discuss this at every family get together for the next 30-days.

I told my dad. He didn't believe it. I think there will be a lot of that because it isn't on ESPN yet. Sterger is going to have to make with the evidence...

[ClassicJack]

Daulerio is a douche for selling her out like that.

Pretty much my thoughts. I understand that he's within his rights as a journalist to run this story, but it doesn't make it any less asinine given that Sterger obviously doesn't want to get involved in this. Still, she should have known better than to ever bring something personal up to a journalist (especially Deadspin) if she was concerned about privacy.

I said earlier that I thought this could explode if our "mystery woman" pushed this story, but A) it's pretty clear that Deadspin is dragging her along with this, I don't expect any photos to come out, nor for Sterger to really push the issue, and B) it's not nearly as bad as they made it seem in their teaser.

Given more information now, I wouldn't be shocked to see most mainstream news outlets ignore this completely.

However, regardless if Sterger didn't want this out. This story makes her looking pretty good.

Agreed. And then he even says "I'm not trying to be a dick" and then he goes and acts like a dick. Not surprising that's what it took for this to come out, but still - own it dude.

i'm scared to death that i'm not going to be able to avoid those pictures

On Monday, Vikings players began to receive text messages from quarterback Brett Favre regarding his intent to retire.

As it turns out, the messages they received could have been a lot worse.

The folks at Deadspin report that Jenn Sterger, who worked in 2008 as an in-house sideline reporter for the Jets and who currently is a member of the cast of The Daily Line on Versus, claims that she received text messages from a certain Brett Lorenzo Favre featuring pictures of, um, Little Lorenzo.

It's not the first time we've heard a story like this, thanks to Sean Salisbury. But Salisbury was largely irrelevant at the time. As to Favre, this disclosure possibly could influence his decision regarding whether or not he'll play in 2010.

Though there's no evidence that Favre was engaged in the kind of sordid escapades that brought down Tiger Woods' marriage, forced him to cough up $750 million to his ex-wife, and wreaked enough havoc on his life to render him a near-mortal on the golf course, Woods' misadventures began with a story in the National Enquirer, which was the catalyst for the Thanksgiving night 9-iron to the Escalade, which got the whole thing rolling.

In this case, Favre will surely deny texting improper pictures to a former coworker, just as he has denied texting his intentions to retire to current coworkers. Heck, there's a chance that no one in the media will be able to muster the nerve to even ask him about these new claims.

But there's someone who will ask Brett a question or two about it. She may ask him many questions or two about it. Favre's wife will want to know chapter-and-verse details about what he did or didn't say and what he texted or didn't text and who in the hell else he may have been involved with in this or other ways.

There's even a chance that Mrs. Favre will contact Ms. Sterger and request the opportunity to personally peruse the pictures.

The extent to which Favre withstands that barrage could go a long way toward determining whether the Favre family will decide that another season of football is in their best interests. It's possible that Favre in the end will decide that he needs to spend the next five months, and maybe longer, out of the spotlight.

Then there's the question of whether the Deadspin story will trigger a Tiger-style parade of other Jenn Stergers, making similar allegations or worse. Regardless of whether anyone else is out there, the TMZs of the world surely are already looking for them.

And so, in the end, Favre's career possibly could be derailed not by his biceps tendon or his ankle or any other part of his body -- except for one of the body parts that he never has used on the football field.

Still LOL'ing at this...

It's only a matter of time before someone makes an athlete's penis collage. :|

[Bernman]

This thread is worthless without pics.

[Flames24Rulz]

Was it on here where someone knew a trainer that Favre had been seeing on the side? It might have been back in the days when I used to frequent that horrible Packers Scout board, but I definitely remember that story.

I'm enjoying this downfall.

[chuckleslove]

There have been far too few "Pants on the Ground" jokes surrounding this entire situation.
