Although Randy Moss asked for a trade from the New England Patriots at the start of the season, fans were still shocked when the Patriots got rid of their star player. Now more information is surfacing about the straw, or hair, that broke the camel’s back.
During last week’s Monday Night football game against the Miami Dolphins, Moss had a blowup during half-time. Pats QB Tom Brady confronted Moss about his attitude, and the altercation escalated to about the men’s hair. Brady told Moss to shave his beard, and Moss chirped back for Brady to cut his girly hair.
Moss’ new team the Minnesota Vikings will play the NY Jets tomorrow on Monday Night Football.
Last week a Tiger Woods photo from the Ryder Cup went viral, and one fan captured the attention of millions. People were asking who the fan dubbed as the “Cigar Guy” was. A blog even offered a $1,000 reward for the man’s idenity. Now, the Daily Mail has tracked down the fan named Rupesh Shingadia. Shingadia is a 30-year-old golf fan and investment analyst from London. As for what Shingadia was wearing, he was playing tribute to Spanish golfer Miguel Angel Jimenez.
The photo was taken as Woods misplayed a shot, causing a gold ball to go straight for a camera lens and gave Shingadia instant fame. Shingadia does not expect his celebrity to last long, but in the meantime he is enjoying the parodies, “My favourite is me with The Simpsons.”
How much did it cost to ruin Brett Favre’s career? According to Terezowen.com Deadspin paid $75,000 for the voicemails and pictures for Brett Favre sexting NY Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger. Deadspin Editor-in-chief AJ Daulerio said, “The biggest thing for us was the voicemail messages. The area code was a 601 area code, he’s from Mississippi, that’s a Mississippi area code. It seems like for someone to impersonate him that’s a large step to take to get after Jenn Sterger.” Sterger used a third party source to sell the photos, so she is only halfway selling herself out.
Yesterday, Deadspin.com released photos and voicemails of Brett Favre trying to seduce NY Jets sideline report Jenn Streger. The incident happened back in 2008, Favre’s lone season with the Jets. Now, two other women are coming froward saying they too were sexually harassed by Favre.
Both women worked as massage therapists for the Jets and were approached by Favre at training camp. Favre made crude comments to the first women while she was massaging another player. The second woman, who was massaging Favre, gave the veteran QB her phone number. According to NFL sources, it is not uncommon for players to call massesuses for extra massage sessions. But Favre wanted more than just a massage. The text messages got so out of hand the woman’s husband got involved and demanded an apology.
The couple contacted an attorney, but because the masseuse was a private contractor, there were no grounds for harrasment. Both women and the husband have chosen to remain anonymous.
In the meantime, the NFL is looking into Deadspin.com’s Jenn Streger allegations against Favre. Favre has been married to his wife Deanna for fourteen years, but the couple have dated since high scool. Deanna is a breast cancer survivor and has stood by Favre for two rehab stints.
