The NFL is reportedly fast tracking their probe concerning allegations that Minnesota Vikings Quarterback Brett Favre sent sexually inappropriate text messages and photos to former Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger and other female employees. Sterger has not yet agreed to speak to the NFL, but last week Deadspin published a video including voice message audio and photos of a penis that Favre allegedly sent Sterger while on the Jets in 2008. Now, the Jets are counting their blessings that Favre isn't on the team anymore.

Though the NFL is also investigating what role the Jets organization may have played in the incident (the team recently came under fire after reporter Inez Sains claimed the Jets' behavior left her "dying of embarrassment"), the organization seems glad to be rid of the superstar. As he gets ready to face the Jets in tonight's game, ESPN blogger Kevin Seifert says the 41-year-old is in "one of the most uncertain periods of his NFL career." The Daily News says tonight the Jets "not only have the better quarterback for the long-term, they have the better quarterback for right now, too. Sanchez has been low maintenance for a young quarterback in New York."

However, with his constant retirement and un-retirement as proof that Favre can do pretty much whatever he wants in this league, Sports Illustrated reporter Peter King reminds us that even if Favre is found guilty, his suspension from the league is "not automatic." He told NBC, "Don't automatically assume that Favre, if found culpable in this case, is going to get a suspension because he has no previous violations of the Personal Conduct Policy." Favre said he will cooperate with the probe, as will Sterger, though she is not pursuing sexual harassment charges. Bet this never happened to your grandfather.
