Brett Favre: Two More Women

Today is Brett Favre's birthday.

The grandfather and Vikings quarterback is 41.

I wonder how Favre is celebrating his special day. Is he spending time with family?

That might be a little strained. Jenn Sterger isn't the only woman to come forward with allegations of Favre's lewd behavior.

Two more women claim to have received inappropriate text messages from Favre.

From Deadspin:

This is about to get worse. It appears Jenn Sterger wasn't the only woman who received unwanted and inappropriate text messages from Brett Favre while he played for the Jets. Favre also pursued two team massage therapists, according to one of the women.

The woman (who wishes to remain anonymous for now — we'll call her "Mandy") worked as a massage therapist for the team for a couple years, but she says never had an incident with a player until No. 4 showed up at training camp at Hofstra University, where the Jets still worked out in 2008. "He was on the table next to mine," she tells me. "He was looking at my ass the whole time while I worked on another player. He was ... ogling me."

The woman who was massaging Brett that day (massage therapist No. 2, or "Lindsay") exchanged numbers with him. (Mandy claims it's common for players to take the numbers of team-contracted massage therapists should they need additional rubdowns off campus. Yeah, I know. Please don't.)

Lindsay received a text message from Favre, according to Mandy. Lindsay assumed it was for a massage but quickly realized Brett was asking for more. He invited both Lindsay and Mandy back to his hotel room. Mandy claims that the texts became increasingly inappropriate ("just nasty stuff"), but she adds that Brett did apologize when he found out she was married.

This apology over text, however, wasn't enough for Mandy's husband. We'll call him "John".

"I called him on his phone and told him I wanted an apology. He acted all arrogant. He refused to apologize," John tells me in a phone conversation.

Mandy and John say they approached attorneys about the situation but were told that because Mandy was a private contractor, there were no grounds for a harassment case. They didn't pursue anything.

...Mandy says she and Lindsay still have some of the text messages. Hooray.

If these allegations are true, will Favre be suspended? Is his consecutive starts record about to end? Is he on his way to rehab?

The picture of Favre that's developing is really pathetic.

I am so glad that Favre isn't our quarterback. He's not Green Bay's problem.

The Jets have to deal with it, and the Vikings. Favre's purple now, through and through.

The scandal has nothing to do with the Packers, at least not yet.
