Jenn Sterger is not going down without a fight! The former NY Jets sideline reporter who has accused Brett Favre of sending inappropriate text messages now wants the league to suspend the NFL quaterback or else….
Sterger’s manager Phil Reese told Sports Illustrated’s Dan Patrick Show:
“If the commissioner suspends Favre and puts a program in place to prevent it from happening again…100 percent, Jenn would not pursue any litigation against Favre, against the Jets, against the NFL. Nothing. All she wants to do is clear her name. This is not about money.”
During the interview, Reese also addressed many rumors surrounding the investigation, including that Sterger only texted Favre to see if it really was the legendary quaterback saying, “If this is you, the least you could do is smile instead of giving me that creepy stare every time that you pass by.”
Reese also insists it was Favre’s camp who wanted to pay off Sterger contrary to previous reports. The night before Deadspin released the photos, Favre’s agent Bus cook contacted Reese, “He [Cook] asked me is there a specific figure that you had in mind to make this go away.”

The saga continues… Jenn Sterger’s manager, Phil Reese has informed TMZ his client has, “provided extensive evidence that irrefutably proves there was harassment,” in the alleged sext messages Brett Favre sent to the former NY Jets sideline reporter. After months of investigating, the league may come to a resolution as soon as today, but if Sterger does not like the outcome, she is prepared to take matters into her own hands. Reese told TMZ, “No matter what happens Jenn has all legal remedies, including going public if the NFL doesn’t clear her name.”
Sterger going public is a change of tune after she refused to cooperate with the NFL’s investigation for months. Farve’s camp claims Sterger wanted a settlement to keep quiet. Looks like Plan B is for Sterger to sell her story… lucky for her this is Oprah’s last season.

Uh oh… did Thejerseychaser.com jinx Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels? Via the Broncos official Twitter, the team announced McDaniels was out as the team’s head coach. Over the weekend, TJC reported how McDaniels traded Peyton Hillis was traded to the Cleveland Browns after he hit on McDaniel’s wife, Laura McDaniels. McDaniels may wish he kept Hillis since he is having a record breaking year, and the Broncos are 3-9. But sometimes you have to worry about the jersey chased and not the jersey chaser!
