Give me a break, more Favre drama ~ Text to solicit a threesome

So, let me get this straight.  If you send out a text message that reads, “(insert your name) here, you and (some other person's name) want to get together im all alone,” you're obviously soliciting a threesome?!?! 

Supposedly "Texty Texterson" sent another message, allegedly sayng he had bad intentions.  Big deal, people. ****  That's sarcasm.  Come on...  Who cares!?!?

Yep, supposedly Brett Favre has/had been allegedly texting a couple of masseuses when he was with the New York Jets.  Apparently the Jets were slapped with a sexual harassment suit because of these "sleazy texts". 

Give me a break.  As far as I'm concerned, you're going to need to give me more than that before I take the whole thing seriously.  I have no idea what's going on or if there's any merit behind these claims, but I can't be the only one wondering why Brett Favre is suddenly the "cash cow" for some women out there. 

The NFL investigation is over and now these other two women seem to want to add their names to the headlines.  Spare me.

My gut tells me this ~ Troll on, ladies.  Keep it moving.  There's no show here (yet)...

My 2 cents: Jenn Sterger meets with the NFL, a slippery slope

Wait a second. Jenn Sterger "gets" to meet with the NFL because she allegedly received inappropriate texts from Brett Favre?  Seriously...  Is this really the path, example, and precedent that the NFL wants to take for their player personal conduct policy?  Does the NFL really have that much time on its hands? 

I'm not one for policing NFL players or trying to monitor any professional athlete's behavior (i.e. if its not criminal) for that matter.  I have bigger fish to fry.  As far as I'm concerned whether or not Favre sent the text messages or left the voicemails is none of my concern.  It's the National Football League, not the National Fidelity League.

Personally, I don't want anyone looking through my phone records, and no one will ever see the texts or hear the voicemails I receive.  Further, from what I understand, if Sterger didn't provide any additional information, the NFL was ready to shelve the case.  Come on...  Am I the only one wondering why all of a sudden, she took a meeting?

Regardless, the last thing anyone needs is a bunch of women parading into the NFL offices with their mobile phones in hand "trying to get" or "waiting for" a meeting.  What's next?  I can see it now..  Before the playoffs or some big game, is some star athlete's former object of attention or affection going to produce cards, texts, and/or voicemails because she was jilted and wants to sabotage him and ultimately a team or fans' dreams?  Sure it sounds absurd, but who knows what can happen if we go down this slippery slope.

When will people learn that it's not smart to take a dirty picture and sext?  Now we're actually singing about it...  Here's "Dirty Picture" by Taio Cruz featuring Ke$ha.  Enjoy.

FavresElbow ~ Hope it's as funny as LeBronsElbow

I was commenting on another forum that features some of my posts, and I had a flashback to last years NBA playoffs.  I was replying to a comment about Favre's latest personal turmoil (i.e. think voicemail and text messages) that has been brought into court of public opinion and have also seen headlines that Brett Favre is considering sitting out if his elbow worsens. 

Personally, I hope all will be OK, with this elbow.  I enjoy watching him play and have grown tired of watching teams (i.e. that are "supposed" to win) lose.  It's only Week 6 and already I'm frustrated, and I'm a Colts' fan.

As for Favre's elbow, all I couldn't help but think back to Lebron and his elbow woes.  My internal voice is trying to be heard, as it screams "Here we go again".

Not sure if anyone's created a profile on Facebook, Twitter, or coined the term yet, but if anyone's getting a wild hair, I only ask for two things:

1. Of all the body parts on Favre that are receiving attention and could possibly be "talking" ~ please choose his elbow...
2. Please let FavresElbow be as funny as LeBronsElbow... 

Question:  Who'd win arm wrestling ~ FavresElbow or LeBronsElbow?

Brett Favre and the "This is it" Text Message

All anyone can talk about today is Brett Favre and his "This is it" text.  BFD. 

According to an ESPN article, Favre has sent text messages to teammates saying, "This is it," league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

So what? He didn't text "I'm retiring." Maybe he meant, "This is it (i.e. the last year)."  Maybe he was recommending the Michael Jackson movie to his teammates.  Who knows.  Why are people are so jumpy?!?!  Until the man says he's retiring and actually misses a game, who cares?

Incidentally, I'm currently in Minneapolis and people are awfully quiet around here.  I did notice that Macy's moved the Favre Minnesota Vikings jersey's closer to the front of its fan memorabilia section (i.e. to the point where it looks strange, surrounded by the Twins gear).

With The Rick in Minneapolis

Regardless, I got a call from my friend, The Rick, today who said we may have witnessed Favre's last victory in the NFL.  Oh well.  Guess we'll find out for sure...  Eventually.

Start of the AFC Divisional Game: Dallas Cowboys v Minnesota Vikings

Favre walks off the field, Vikings won!

Get your jersey while you can.

Hank Haney and Tiger Woods - Breaking up is hard to do

Did you see that Hank Haney quit his job as swing coach for Tiger Woods via text message (i.e. at least that's what People.com is reporting)?  Nobody ever said breaking up was easy.  In fact, the whole scenario reminds me of a book that I read years ago, when I was going through a break-up with my first fiance. 

The book was entitled, "It's Not Me, It's You: A Modern Girl's Guide to Breaking Up"...  I thought the book was funny and left it on the nightstand by accident one day.  Needless to say, he was not amused.

Oh well.
