Vikings quarterback Brett Favre apologized to his teammates for being a distraction during a meeting Monday morning and told them he is prepared to play "lights out tonight" when Minnesota faces the New York Jets, sources told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen. The NFL is aggressively investigating allegations that Favre sent inappropriate messages and photos to a former Jets employee, a source familiar with the league's review told Mortensen. The investigation is on a fast track and commenced Thursday, the same day that Deadspin.com posted voice messages and salacious photos that Favre allegedly sent to Jenn Sterger when both were employed by the New York Jets in 2008. Sterger is reportedly willing to cooperate, but has not yet spoken with NFL investigators. Sterger's manager released a statement Monday to answer questions on whether his client has retained legal counsel. "We're looking at all our options right now and our only concern is what's in Jenn's best interest," Phil Reese said. Source: ESPN
So we have Favre and the Jets facing accusations of misconduct. Perfect back story for tonights game.
The question I have is this: If all this crap occurred back in 08, why is it just coming out now? And the week before the Jet game? **********Automerged Doublepost********** And another thing, who the heck keeps messages on their phone for 2 damn years?
