Jenn Sterger: No Favre Jokes

Jenn Sterger is doing stand-up comedy, but Brett Favre jokes are not part of her act.



Video here.

Can't wait for the Packers to honor Favre and retire his jersey.

One of the all-time greats.

Right.

Packers Family Night 2014

I've already made my annual summer pilgrimage to Packers Training Camp.

Many will be heading to Lambeau today for Packers Family Night.

Mark Murphy writes:

Tonight at 5:30 p.m., we will hold our 14th annual Packers Family Night event. To me, the event really highlights the unique nature of the Packers and the special connection we have with our fan base. We always have great crowds for the event. This year, the event sold out in two days, even though the format was changed from a scrimmage to a full practice. We expect a crowd of over 70,000, a much larger crowd than most teams will draw for their home preseason games. Family Night also highlights the unique relationship we have with our younger fans. Most of the activities during the evening are geared toward kids. Also, we’ve kept the price reasonable ($10 since 2009) to encourage families with younger children to come to Lambeau Field for the evening.

Although Family Night is now a practice, I don’t think it will seem very different to our fans. The players will be on the field as long as they have been in the past, and the practice will include 11-on11 sessions with live contact. The evening will still feature a game-like atmosphere with use of video boards and game day music.

In addition to the practice, there are activities planned for fans throughout the entire day. Things will get started at 11 a.m., when the Atrium and American Family Insurance DreamZone will open. The DreamZone has a number of activities for kids. The Appleton Rock School will perform outside the Tundra Tailgate Zone starting at noon. The Fan Walkway area in front of the Oneida Nation Gate steps will include numerous activities, including sidewalk drawing, airbrush tattoos and a display of animals from the Wildlife Sanctuary. Also, the Copps-Pick ‘N Save picnic will take place from 1-6 p.m. in the east parking lot.

There will also be many on-field activities. The popular Chili’s “Jersey Off Our Backs” will return. There will also be an NFL Flag Football game, as well as performances by the Green Bay Elite Dance team and a BMX Bike group. The evening will conclude with a new attraction, a laser light show, and the spectacular Copps-Pick ’N Save fireworks display.

It should be a fun day for our fans, and it will be a great chance for many to get a first look at this year’s team. Most importantly, it will be a great opportunity for families with young kids to experience Lambeau Field.
This really is a great opportunity for families to enjoy the Lambeau experience together.

If the forecast is to be believed, it looks like weather conditions will be perfect.

One great thing about tonight: Brett Favre won't be crashing the festivities the way he did in 2008.

With all due respect, which is very little, what a jerk that guy is!

Thankfully, that's history. He's history. All that lame drama is history. I can't imagine Aaron Rodgers ever pulling that sort of crap. He has too much class. Rodgers is in an entirely different league from Favre when it comes to class and character.

Packers Family Night 2014 promises to be great family fun!

Seth Meyers Monologue, ESPYs (Video)



SETH MEYERS: The biggest story in football was the Green Bay Packers beating the Steelers 31-25 in the Super Bowl. The Green Bay Packers became the first team since 1962 to go an entire season without trailing more than 7 points, proving once and for all that not every statistic is interesting.

And finally, give it up for Aaron Rodgers!



Aaron Rodgers, who won the Super Bowl and finally got out of the shadow of Brett Favre, which we learned, thanks to cell phone technology, is not as big a shadow as we originally thought.

Brett Favre: Itch

I hoped we'd be spared the Brett Favre UN-retirement talk this year.

Alas, it was too much to hope for.

From NFL.com:

Almost time to fire up Favre Watch 2011? On one hand, says NFL.com’s Gil Brandt, yes. Then again, Brandt says, NFL teams might not be all that interested.

When asked about a possible return of Brett Favre to Minnesota during his live chat Tuesday, Brandt indicated that he believes the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns is indeed getting back that itch. The only catch is that, while the Vikings put on the full-court press to have Favre return last summer, Brandt doesn’t see Minnesota or any other team sending its private jet down to Hattiesburg, Miss., this summer.

“I do think Favre would be interested in talking to a team about returning,” Brandt said. “But I don’t see a team out there right now that would bring him back as a starter.”

Brandt noted that the Vikings need to get first-round draft pick Christian Ponder in the starting lineup as soon as possible, and Favre isn’t the right QB to be grooming — and giving way to — a young player.

“Brett is still a good quarterback, but I’d consider him a descending quarterback,” Brandt said. “It’s awfully hard for him to go to a team and be a backup. The Vikings must start Christian Ponder this season to get him some experience. And they’re not going to get Favre in there to babysit Ponder.”

After Favre's meltdown last year, on and off the field, wouldn't you think the guy would finally want to step out of the spotlight and stay out?

Favre is a joke.

The "itchy" Favre has made such awful choices.

I hope the reigning Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers retire Super Bowl XLV MVP Aaron Rodgers' jersey before Favre gets that honor.

Vote Changes in Statewide Recounts

The MacIver Institute offers this chart of "Vote Changes in Statewide Recounts in the United States Since 1980 and Margin in Prosser v. Kloppenburg 2011."



What is JoAnne Kloppenburg thinking?

She and her union allies certainly can't think this joke of a recount is going to endear the Leftists' agenda to Wisconsin taxpayers.

What a massive waste of resources!

This recount is so outrageous that the classless Kloppenburg joins Brett Favre in becoming a verb.

For example, the verb "favre":

When lead character Cleveland Brown, a baseball star when he was in high school, gives his retired #9 jersey to his son, Cleveland Jr., the elder Cleveland takes a shot at Brett Favre.

CLEVELAND BROWN JR.: Wow! Number 9! I thought when you left they retired it for good.

CLEVELAND BROWN: I'm Brett Favre-ing it, except I'm not being a public jag off about it.

It took Favre years to become a verb, going in and out of retirement repeatedly.

Kloppenburg managed to achieve that level of notoriety in just weeks. Quite an accomplishment.

JIMMY FALLON: The Green Bay Packers said this week they want to offer Brett Favre a job with the organization in the future. Not sure what that job would be, but I think we can rule out team photographer.

Favre Fined $50,000

Brett Favre has been fined $50,000 by the NFL.

From the New York Times:

Brett Favre, the Minnesota Vikings quarterback whose 20-year career is likely to end after this weekend, was fined $50,000 by the National Football League Wednesday for failing to cooperate with the league’s investigation into graphic photos and suggestive messages he was accused of sending to a woman while both were employed by the Jets in 2008.

The N.F.L. said it found no evidence that Favre’s behavior toward Jenn Sterger violated league policy about workplace conduct. The N.F.L. made clear that its policies do not extend to private conduct and do not pass judgment on the appropriateness of personal relations.

“On the basis of the evidence currently available to him, Commissioner Goodell could not conclude that Favre violated league policies relating to workplace conduct,” the N.F.L.’s statement said. “The forensic analysis could not establish that Favre sent the objectionable photographs to Sterger. The review found no evidence to contradict the statements of both Favre and Sterger that they never met in person, nor was there anything to suggest that Sterger engaged in any inappropriate conduct.”

The league added:

“However, Commissioner Goodell also determined that Favre was not candid in several respects during the investigation, resulting in a longer review and additional negative public attention for Favre, Sterger, and the N.F.L. Commissioner Goodell stated to Favre that if he had found a violation of the league’s workplace conduct policies, he would have imposed a substantially higher level of discipline.”

Favre was fined for not being "candid in several respects during the investigation," NOT for sexually harassing Jenn Sterger and other women in the NFL workplace.

In other words, don't worry NFL players. Engage in sexually abusive behavior. You won't be held accountable as long as you aren't candid during any investigation. You'll be fined a pittance, $50,000.

Goodell wimped out.

Leno: 'It's Cold' Jokes

JAY LENO: It is freezing across most of the United States. Two feet of snow in the Midwest. The good news: These are the first shovel-ready jobs Obama's come up with since he was president.

It is so cold in Minneapolis Brett Favre was texting pictures of his chestnuts roasting over an open fire.

It was so cold in Chicago Rahm Emanuel said, 'I'm glad I don't live here.'


JAY LENO: A Wisconsin postal carrier has been arrested for delivering mail in the nude. You know, it's bad enough getting junk mail. Now we have to see the mailman's junk? What's that all about?

Is December the best time to be delivering mail in the nude in Wisconsin? He must be a pretty confident guy. You're not gonna look your best in the cold weather.

Favre Joke: Metrodome Roof

JIMMY FALLON: That's right, the roof of the Minnesota Vikings stadium collapsed after it snowed 17 inches. Well, they said it was 17 inches, but Brett Favre texted me a pic and it looked more like 3 inches tops.

SNL: Favre's Slogan

From Saturday Night Live, "Weekend Update":

SETH MEYERS: It was reported that a number of professional athletes are now seeking to copyright their personal slogans, including the New York Jets Darrelle Revis' 'Revis Island,' Michael Strahan's 'stomp you out,' Terrell Owens' 'I love me some,' and, of course, Brett Favre's 'Say hello to my little friend.'

Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre: Jersey Sales

This has really been a rough season for Brett Favre.

He's fading.

I can understand why his jersey sales are down. His career is about to end. He's not the future for his team, the present is painful, and the stuff in his recent past off the field is embarrassing.

It's over.

He'll leave the game as a sad figure, a broken old man, a joke.

It could have been so different. Favre made some very bad choices.

Rodgers passes Favre on jersey sales

Besides quarterback rating and passing yards, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has passed Brett Favre in at least one other sports statistic this season: jersey sales.

NFLShop.com reports that in the period between April 1 and Dec. 3, Rodgers ranks 6th in top-selling NFL jerseys. Rodgers jumped ahead of Favre, who is now ranked 7th.

However, Favre is still the all-time leader in jersey sales, NFL officials have said.

...The top selling jersey belongs to Tim Tebow of the Denver Broncos. After Tebow comes Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints; Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers; Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts; and Tom Brady of the New England Patriots.

I'm sure Favre's jersey sales aren't weighing heavily on him.

He has more pressing concerns, like Jenn Sterger.

A spokesman for the former New York Jets game hostess who allegedly received inappropriate photos and phone messages from Brett Favre says she won't sue the Vikings quarterback if he's punished by the NFL.

Jenn Sterger's manager, Phil Reese, said Thursday that his client would like the league to "implement a program" to prevent unwanted advances such as those she's alleging Favre made.

...Reese said Sterger wants the league to discipline Favre before his career ends. "It's not a money story," Reese said, adding his client's goal is some acknowledgment that Favre was in the wrong.

This is a long, painful farewell.

Leno: WikiLeaks and Brett Favre

On Wednesday, Jay Leno showed his audience a random page containing a few of the thousands of U.S. documents released by WikiLeaks.

Leno said a lot of the classified material wasn't relevant. He called it "just gossipy stuff."
