It sure as hell isn’t Deanna Favre, according to a report on Deadspin.
And it has nothing to do with his alleged retirement this time around. No, no — it turns out the heroic Gunslinger of yore has a little scoundrel in him, too. But you must wait, mongrels.
Here’s somewhat of a [sic'd] clue:
PS, when the texts/pics/calls started… [Redacted] asked Peter King about the phone number.. and King said he didn’t have that number for him. So this is a completely separate bat phone that no one including his best friends knows about. He’d ask me to send him video again.. or some shit every once in a while.. like I “did before’.. (and I never did) which means, this scum bag prolly was doing this to multiple women…
I don’t want to get famous for this.. or have anything to do with this.. but.. I hate the fact that every one loves on this guy when I can’t even stand to watch his wranglers commercials.
He’s a pro.
To make this even more interesting — the person on the receiving end of Favre’s clumsy overtures is someone you’re probably familiar with as well.
But be patient. We’ve been patient, so you must be, too. This person’s story could do wonders for keeping Favre’s name out of our football conversation for the next three months. Let’s just say this — you’ll never be able to think of Brett Favre without thinking about Crocs.
Oh, jesus… CROCS!? Maddox sums up my feelings on Crocs all too well.
Anyway, according to Peephole Sports, a commenter on Deadspin thinks they know who Favre’s “mistress” is…
Versus network’s own Jennifer Sterger!
Dude, Brett… you’ve been hittin that!?
In a 2008 post on AOL Fanhouse, Sterger was working with the Jets at the same time Brett played for them…
Game. Set. Match!
Jennifer Sterger will become famous for being the woman under Brett Favre.

Holmgren: Well, kid… LeBron’s out of town… the spotlight is now all on you! You’re the new Chosen One for Cleveland!
McCoy: (to himself) Oh f*ck… when is the earliest I can get out of this dipaladed shit hole of a city?! I need to call my agent and have him take a look at that contract again.

So we here at Pacman Jonesin’ decided to weigh in on the LeBron James debacle that’s currently been dominating the TV, radio and internet airwaves; as well as taking up space in newspapers everywhere.
We hope his press conference goes something like this…
LeBron James: Good evening, and thank you for joining me here at the Boys and Girls Club right in the heart of the mean streets of Greenwich, CT. I guess you can say I’ve dominated the media for a while now… well, guess what, I will continue to dominate the media like I’m going to dominate in the NBA. Because, I STILL HAVEN’T DECIDED WHERE I’M GOING YET! That’s right, I’m going to be indecisive about it… I just wanted to see if everyone was going to pay attention, and you all fell for it. My mom told me to do this, and she’d stop f*cking Delonte West. So, I have a while to make a decision… in the meantime, I’m going to buddy up with Tiger Woods and go slay some strange pussy with him. Up yours, America!

According to multiple Twitter accounts (including Adam Schefter’s, so it HAS to be true), former Raiders Quarterback and bacon-sprinkled donut eater JaFatass Russell was arrested at his home in Mobile, AL for possessing PURPLE DRANK!
Nobody cares whether or not the UFL’s Omaha Nighthawks were reached for comment. Meanwhile, Ryan Leaf is laughing at Russell. At least it took Leaf a full decade before getting arrested after he was an NFL bust.
One question: Will this count on Mike “The Turd” Florio’s “Turd Watch” on ProFootballTalk?
SCIC’s Andrew Ungvari wrote a comprehensive column yesterday about how to determine the efficacy of an NBA general manager. Ungvari made a number of valid points, but there were also several assertions in which we’ll just have to agree to disagree.
In the prior post I revisited a list that I compiled prior to the start of the current season and what follows now is an updated list of the Top 10 Worst NBA GM’s taking into account everything that has transpired during the past nine months:
10. John Hammond – Nearly off the list, but the Joe Alexander draft pick was so egregious that he makes it once again.
9. Larry Riley – Reportedly, Golden State rejected an offer of O.J. Mayo and Hasheem Thabeet for Monta Ellis at the trade deadline. I love Ellis, but he’s injury-prone, expensive and not entirely compatible with rookie sensation Stephen Curry. If the report is true then it was a very poor decision by Riley.
8. Donnie Walsh – While Walsh deserves praise for most of what he has done to get the Knicks well under the salary cap heading into next season, passing on both Brandon Jennings and Ty Lawson in the last draft was absolutely horrendous.
7. Geoff Petrie – Very spotty record with draft picks and head coaching hires. As long as Paul Westphal is calling the shots on the bench the Kings won’t come close to winning 40 games.
6. Rod Thorn – There is plenty of blame to go around for the Nets abysmal season and Thorn is at the head of the line. While he was merely taking orders from the prior owner to shed salary, a lot of the players he acquired just couldn’t cut the mustard.
5. Chris Wallace – While the aforementioned Thabeet will be a competent backup center in the league for a dozen years, the decision to bypass Tyreke Evans with the second pick in the draft was beyond horrific. Despite having plenty of room under the salary cap, Wallace also failed to bring in an experienced player or two down the stretch who could give the team valuable minutes.
4. Ed Stefanski – Eddie Jordan and Elton Brand. Does anything else need to be said?
3. Joe Dumars – Other than picking Jonas Jerebko in the 2nd round, I can’t remember the last good move Dumars has made.
2. Ernie Grunfeld – I really don’t know how Ernie still has a job. While the $111 million contract bestowed upon Gilbert Arenas was bad, the failure to land J.J. Hickson in the Antawn Jamison deal was unconscionable.
1. David Kahn – As expected, the Timberwolves were a deplorable basketball team this past season. There simply isn’t enough talent or veteran leadership on the roster and Minnesota will be lucky to win more than 30 games in the foreseeable future.

Now that Duke dodged a major bullet and won the NCAA championship, it’s time to turn our attention back to the NBA.
There are a lot of compelling story lines these days, but tonight I have decided to briefly revisit a very popular post that I wrote back in August of last year about the 10 Worst NBA General Managers.
As I look back and re-read the post, it’s pretty clear I owe apologies to a couple of guys on the list. However, I think most of what I said was absolutely spot on. Today’s comments will be in italics. Away we go…
10) Sam Presti – During the past two seasons, Presti has been in charge of a team that has an overall record of 43-121. This is a winning percentage of .262. Has a general manager ever received more accolades for accomplishing so little? The decision to hire P.J. Carlisimo was catastrophic and in year three of Presti’s reign, Oklahoma City will be hardpressed to win 40% of its games. Is this really one of the top GM’s in the NBA?
Oops. Slight misfire on this one. Kevin Durant is undeniably one of the three best players in basketball and the Thunder were the league’s feel good story of the year having clinched a playoff berth on Sunday.
Simply put, I thought Oklahoma City was at least a season away from playoff contention. However, Presti was able to steal Eric Maynor from the Jazz (rendering ancient backup point guard Kevin Ollie useless) and Serge Ibaka emerged as a solid big man off the bench (making Etan Thomas irrelevant). Clearly, the future is now for the Thunder.
9) Joe Dumars – Pistons fans aren’t going to like this, but Dumars has made a lot of head scratching decisions recently (Chauncey Billups trade, Rip Hamilton extension, Ben Gordon contract and bringing Chris Wilcox in to presumably start at center to name four). Is Joe living on borrowed time in Detroit?
Joe truly has been a disaster for the past few years. This assertion can’t be disputed. Other than nabbing promising forward Jonas Jerebko in the 2nd round of the draft, Dumbars (yes, that is spelled correctly) has been firing blanks. This is a horrific roster of players and there really is little chance of the Pistons turning things around anytime soon.
8) Danny Ferry - Danny deserves credit for trying to make the Cavs better. However, the pieces that he has added likely won’t be enough to get LeBron James a ring. The deal Anderson Varejao inked this summer was likely $10-12 million more than any other team in the league would have paid.
I love Varejao’s game, but the contract was still way too much. Will the Antawn Jamison acquisition be enough to take down Orlando in the East? I still have serious doubts, but Ferry better hope so or LeBron will likely be wearing a different jersey next season.
7) Jeff Bower - I’m somewhat reluctant to include Bower because he has made a number of solid acquisitions over the past couple of years. However, his failure to secure a suitable backcourt mate for Chris Paul is simply inexcusable.
Bower axed Byron Scott shortly after the season started and the Hornets have never really been a serious playoff contender. Although there are glaring holes on the roster, rookie shooting guard Marcus Thronton appears to be the real deal. Darren Collison was also a shrewd selection and New Orleans isn’t too far away from recapturing their past glory.
6) Geoff Petrie – Last off-season it was Beno Udrih. This off-season it’s Sean May. Needless to say, Sacramento fans won’t have to worry about buying playoff tickets for a few more years.
Sacramento’s early season success was a mirage. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Paul Westphal is a terrible head coach. He does just enough to lose a game. All season long he jerked around his players’ minutes and losses continued to pile up. While there is definitely a lot of young talent on the roster (led by ROY candidate Tyreke Evans), as long as Westphal is calling the shots the Kings won’t even sniff the playoffs.
5) Ed Stefanski -Throwing $80+ million at Elton Brand will plague the 76ers for years and letting Andre Miller leave without any compensation was questionable to say the least. Maybe Stefanski thinks that recent acquisition Primoz Brezec will lead the Sixers to the promised land. As far as I’m concerned, Brezec is just Dwayne Schintzius minus the mullet.
As bad as Westphal has been in Sacramento, the head coach Stefanski hired might even be worse. Eddie Jordan is almost assured of being fired in a couple weeks for his deplorable performance and Stefanski may soon follow him out the door.
4) John Hammond - Hiring Sourpuss Scott Skiles, drafting Joe Alexander, dumping Richard Jefferson for eighteen cents on the dollar and failing to extend a qualifying offer to Charlie Villanueva are just four of the dubious decisions Hammonds has made as GM of the Bucks in a span of less than two years.
While I’ll always hammer Hammond for drafting Alexander, most of his other moves have really turned out well. Although erratic, Brandon Jennings has been the third best rookie in the league. Picking up Carlos Delfino was solid and acquiring John Salmons for next to nothing (Hakim Warrick and the aforementioned Alexander) was nothing short of brilliant.
Although the season ending injury to Andrew Bogut Saturday night will likely prevent the Bucks from winning a playoff series, Scott Skiles has pushed most of the right buttons this year (I still can’t believe he and Jennings haven’t clashed). Hammond should have dealt oft-injured guard Michael Redd for something anything while he had the chance, but otherwise he has done a very good job at the helm in Milwaukee.
3) Mike Dunleavy – Yaroslav Korolev. I could expound for another five-hundred words, but I’ll just go ahead and rest my case.
Dunleavy was dismissed as both coach and GM. Last night I attended the Clippers-Knicks game and was literally 120 feet from owner Donald Sterling for 2 1/2 hours. During every timeout and stoppage of play, I looked over at Sterling (dressed in black from head to toe) as he sat slouched in his seat at mid-court and just wondered why the hell it took so long for the cheap bastard to shitcan Dunleavy. Better late than never, I guess.
2) David Kahn – Only Michael Jackson’s summer has been worse. The bottom line with Kahn is that he really needs Ricky Rubio to be wearing a Timberwolves jersey by October. Has any GM ever had a more disastrous first eight weeks on the job?
Rubio wearing a Timberwolves jersey in October, huh? I doubt this will ever happen and it certainly won’t for another two years. The Nets might have the worst record in the league, but Minnesota is just as bad.
1) Chris Wallace – Just keeping the spot warm for David Kahn. Although Memphis Grizzlies fans won’t have much to cheer about again this season, at least Wallace will be able to take pride in his Lakers championship ring.
Even though they aren’t going to make the playoffs, it has been a successful season for the Grizzlies. Incredibly, until a few weeks ago Memphis was in contention for a spot in the playoffs.
Despite this success, Wallace has to be held accountable for botching the 2nd pick of the NBA Draft back in June. Tyreke Evans and Stephen Curry were right there and Wallace passed on both of them for Hasheem Thabeet. Doh! Failing to land a little more veteran help off the bench down the stretch other than Ronnie Brewer also didn’t help the team’s playoff prospects.
The Pau Gasol trade will always be Wallace’s Waterloo, but brother Marc’s continued improvement will likely prevent the deal from being remembered as the worst in NBA history. When the next list comes out in a few months, Wallace’s name will definitely be on it….but he won’t be #1.
