Favre Fined

A slap on the wrist? Not even that was given
to Favre

Today NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell tagged Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre with a fine of $50,0000. The fine was levied due to Favre's lack of cooperation in the investigation concerning former New York Jets employee, Jenn Sterger. Sterger had claimed that Farve sent her inappropriate texts and pics during 2008 when both were employed by the Jets.

Those funds will go toward further promoting workplace conduct leaguewide. I suppose kudos are in order.

Goodell also claimed that no evidence was unveiled that Favre committed any violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy.

While Sterger and her attorney, Joesph R. Conway, were disappointed that the NFL only fined Favre, there could be other hurdles for Sterger.
