The legendary quarterback publicly insisted just days ago that the matter of naked photos and voice-mails he allegedly sent of himself to an object of his affection, a.k.a. the Brett Favre scandal, is an NFL matter and he would not make any comments.
But now the Brett Favre scandal has a new twist with Favre now admitting to the NFL that it is his voice on the voice-mails, but has denied sending pictures, according to a report on Fox Sports.
According to the report, Favre told NFL officials he left voicemails for former Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger, but told the officials that he did not send text messages of his private parts.
Last week, Brett Favre was interviewed by NFL vice president for security Milt Ahlerich about the scandal.
The Brett Favre scandal erupted following voicemails and naked photos purportedly sent by Farve in 2008, when Favre played for the Jets.
Sterger has not yet talked to the league about the situation. Fox Sports reports that could happen soon.
Meantime, Wrangler jeans’ decision to stand by Brett Favre and continue to run a commercial that features Favre has now become a parody on NBC’s ‘Saturday Night Live.’
In the ‘SNL’ skit, Favre is played by SNL cast member Jason Sudekis who is promoting “Open Fly Jeans.” With the audio: “Wrangler Open Fly Jeans feature an ultra-relaxed fit where you need it most — the fly. Why let zippers and buttons slow you down?”
Favre then whips out an iPhone, and his manhood, and snaps pictures.
“I don’t understand why Wrangler continued to run the spots and feature him on the company website,” says Glenn Selig, a crisis management PR expert with The Publicity Agency. “Now they’re brand is associated with this scandal in a rather big way. That negative impacted could have been minimized.”
