What We’re Talking About 10/11/10

Favre apologizes to teammates for his penis.  Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre apologized to teammates for being a distraction after the NFL said it will investigate allegations that the 11-time Pro Bowler sent lewd photos and messages to former New York Jets employee Jenn Sterger, ESPN reported Monday.

Favre reportedly spoke to the team during a morning meeting in preparation for the Vikings’ Monday Night Football game against the Jets.

A source familiar with the NFL’s review of the case told ESPN Monday that the league was aggressively investigating the allegations.

Deadspin.com, a sports news website, first published the racy photos and messages in a two-minute video montage Thursday.

The voicemails include a man’s voice attempting to proposition Sterger, a former Jets sideline reporter and Maxim model who now hosts “The Daily Line” on cable channel Versus.
Deadspin also posted purported MySpace messages from Favre to the 26-year-old Sterger, and alleged that Jets media relations manager Jared Winley facilitated contact between the two.

The Minnesota Vikings quarterback, who played for the Jets in 2008, refused to comment on the allegations during Thursday’s team press conference saying, “I’m not getting into that. I’ve got my hands full with the Jets.”

The New York Post reported Sunday that Favre allegedly tried the same seduction technique with a part-time masseuse working for the Jets during the team’s training camp.  (Read More).

Duke F-list details…thanks again deadspin!  Update: Names redacted. Read here. So this is going to be bad. Or good, depending upon where some of the lacrosse, baseball, and tennis players rate on former Blue Devil Karen F. Owen’s “Fuck List.”

The University is pissed. The dudes are pissed. The parents of the athletes are pissed. Jezebel interviewed the woman behind it, who says this: “I regret it with all my heart. I would never intentionally hurt the people that are mentioned on that.” Probably too late for that, as this was forwarded many, many, many times in the past 24 hours. Read it all in this gallery.  (Read More).
