"bcuz it would technically be potential sexual assault of an employee of his team"
i guess i wasn't clear that this was an unwanted advance; really haven't been reading more than headlines on the story for fear of learning TOO MUCH

Anyone who views this Jenn Sterger character as anything but a transparent, empty-headed opportunist is giving her way too much credit. And now, of course every massage therapist who's ever been on the Jets payroll is courageously 'coming forward' to get their names in the press ($$$$$). This is totally the worst kinda witch hunt, dudes, come on.

xpost so are you saying he didn't send her cock shots or are you saying you don't like her?

omg what a "witch hunt" for poor ppl who just want to send cock shots to women!
"She was asking for it! Look at how she was dressed!"
― funky house skeptic (polyphonic), Saturday, 9 October 2010 17:12 (thirteen years ago) link
Gimme a break. Let he who has never sent a cock shot via pic message cast the first stone.
Seriously, though, kinda fail to see the big deal here. I'm ashamed at Favre for steppin' out on his poor wife (or trying to), but beyond that, this just doesn't seem newsworthy to me at all.

first of all, it's fucked up from the start for any man to send multiple unsolicited photos of his penis to a woman. this is sexual harassment. there's also a disgusting power dynamic in play, where favre, being a famous qb, thinks it's okay to sexually harass multiple female employees (if the accusations from the massage therapist are true) because he's the qb, and the women are objects of the team, and by proxy him. he obviously thought there were no consequences to him completely perving on pretty much any woman he came in contact with.
not to mention that to be all "well jenn sterger is a model who dresses sexily!" is, as poly points out, the same mindset as saying that rape victims in short skirts were asking for it. and if you actually believe that, than all i can say is fuck you.
― truly blunted rhyme fiend (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 9 October 2010 20:55 (thirteen years ago) link
OK, I'll be glad to. Brett Favre is a human hamburger, a sexual harrasser, a redneck cro-mag without the raising to know right from wrong or the brain cells to remember it for more than ten minutes if he ever has it explained to him.

this is more likely to keep him in the league for another 5 years to 'earn back his pride' than to shame him into retirement

xpost That clearly isn't what I'm saying at all - what I'm saying is that if she hadn't spurned him, this would have been considered (an admittedly icky) courtship. Not the kind I traffic in, mind you, but courtship nonetheless. The fact is she wasn't interested, and instead of respecting a man's privacy and relegating this to a giggle with friends at dumbass's expense, she uses it as social currency. I think that's the mark of an extremely fucked up person. Give her the benefit of the doubt all you want, but you may wanna get off your histrionic high horse a bit, dude. There are two sides etc etc etc.

Airport makes a good argument. How do you know if a chick wants to see your wang or not unless you show it to her?
This is why most men would be wise to never wear pants.

airport, if your girlfriend or wife had every dude in her office sending her emails and text messages with photos of their cocks and were walking up to her desk and whipping their dicks out, i hope you wouldn't say "well honey, how are they supposed to know if you don't want it?" when she complains to you about it

lol daniel
Oh I don't know, a world where Brett Favre is on television crying about dickpix sounds kind of hilarious to me (aside from the sexual harassment)

btw it's amazing how everything is just falling into place like clockwork w/r/t "waffling retirements, incredible late-career success, leading to incredibly embarrassing and sleazy schadenfreude," with favre following the roger clemens script line-by-line.

from sterger's lawyer:
Reese has said his client "did not provide Deadspin with any information." And a Deadspin editor said it paid a third party for the material and acknowledged it's possible the man who sent the voice mails and photos may not be Favre.
so she didn't bring it public, deadspin did....so is she still a lying whore airport?

It does not matter that Jenn Sterger’s on-full-display, fake breasts were her only qualification to land a job with the Jets. She should be afforded protection from harassment. Unsolicited e-mails, phone calls and Full Monty pics are quite different from locker-room catcalls and coaches running pass plays in the direction of a provocatively dressed Sideline Barbie.

In general the whole thing annoys me. Crying butthurt about Deadspin going "tabloid" is one thing, but if one sports reporting org. could just cover the story without their head jammed up Favre's ass, I'd be really fucking happy.
And Tom Jackson...ugh dude honestly.
