Eden Prairie, Minnesota – As recently announced, Brett Favre was slammed with a $50k fine for not cooperating with the NFL during investigation of his scandalous situation with Jenn Sterger. In case you were born yesterday, Brett Favre entered this season with controversy because Sterger had came forth accusing Favre of sexually harassing her by sending lewd text messages and photos of his genitalia to her. The fine was imposed due to Favre playing a part in prolonging the probing process and not being completely forthcoming during investigation. Many critics of the penalty, including Sterger’s attorneys, drew ire saying that it was such a little penalty to Favre because he makes so much money a 50k fine wouldn’t impact him the slightest.
While that view point was noted, many Favre supporters argued that his legacy in the league has already been tarnished a great deal just from the story leaking out. “It had to be tough enough going out there and playing the game with this kind of monkey on your back” said a close friend of Favre’s. After the public backlash on the penalty, NFL commissioner Goodell voluntarily addressed the statements by saying Favre could’ve pulled uglier chics but he pulled such a dime piece. Goodell commented, “I mean, let’s be serious here, some of you 25 year old punks can’t pull that kind of ass on your best day, Favre pulled that at 41. Don’t even get me started on the type of ass you’d be pulling at 41. That’s just a testament to how great Favre is”. Goodell also added, “Favre is so money too that you don’t even hear anything about him kissing up and buying a 4 million dollar ring. I mean, much love for Kobe and all but the rocky horror picture show reject he was accused of harassing back in Denver isn’t on Sterger’s level. I’m sorry”
While his response shocked the critics, even many more applauded and realized their mistakes. Chris Bayer. a local Vikings fan commented, “[Goodell's] right. It’s Sterger’s fault for looking so damn fine. I also remember when she had her nude pictures up on playboy and how it distracted me from my daily article reads.” Favre may not have ended his career exactly the way he had hoped for, but he will still be a piece of motivation for aspiring athletes and other 40 year old men. Sterger’s attorneys also commented that to show how small the fine is for a multimillion dollar athlete like Favre, if he actually accrued 50k a year instead, he’d end up paying about $1.20 for the fine. Clearly upset was the attorney, according to multiple sources who were there during his public statement, until he was handed a May 2006 issue of Playboy magazine.
The attorney had to cut his speech short after taking a few glimpses. We’ll cover more on this story if any developments.

BUT THEY DIDN’T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT LINKS!!!! pics (NSFW):
The NFL went the entire 2009 season without much of a peep from Buffalo Bills wide receiver Terrell Owens. Once Owens signed his contract to play in Buffalo this season, everybody knew that he would become almost irrelevant. This came as a nice relief to some people, but Commissioner Roger Goodell is concerned for the former star.
