The Story

UPDATE: 10/12/2010: As news broke about Brett Favre's sexual pursuit of Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger, the New York Post reminded us that this isn't Brett's first indiscretion. In Deanna's 2007 book, she wrote that during Brett's vicodin and alcolhol addictions, she knew that "there were other women at those places where Brett and his friends were partying." At one point, she walked in on Brett on the phone with another woman. Deanna decided to stay only after Brett begged her to stay, and his then Packers QB coach told her that he thought Brett might kill himself if she left.
Stay tuned to see what happens following these latest allegations.
Time Together: After meeting and dating through high school, the two were married July 14, 1996. When Deanna was 20, she became pregnant with the couple's first child, daughter, Brittany Nicole Favre, born in 1989. They later had another daughter, Breleigh Ann Favre, born in 1999.
Maiden Name: Deanna Tynes
Date of Birth: December 28, 1968
Resume: Deanna graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with a degree in exercise science. Since college, Deanna has focused on charitable endeavors, spending time running the Brett Favre Fourward Foundation, which raises money for underprivileged children in Wisconsin and Mississsippi. After her bout with breast cancer, Deanna founded the Deanna Favre Hope Foundation, which raises money for uninsured and underinsured women battling breast cancer. She says that her diagnosis forced her to wonder what would have happened if she was diagnosed during the 6 years that she raised Brittany on her own. This caused her to take action and launch this foundation.
Fun Facts: Brett has credited Deanna with finally helping him separately kick his addictions to both vicodin and alcohol, and claims complete sobriety from vicodin since 1996 and alcohol since 1999.

What a story. Brett will be sorely missed, if he retires. Like him or not, he has been great for the NFL. One of the most exciting players of all time.

Brett Farve is a legend. He is the last of them too. I have kept up with him since he started with Green Bay. If he retires I will miss him greatly. He is absolutely exciting to watch. Brett though your years you have been a wonderful QB and do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Happy Valentines Day to you and your family.

Any other opinions now? She is a strong woman. I am like her. There is no need to stay with a man who has no thought even if in the "moment". I raised my daugther by myself because the man in her life, her father, did not excercise the decision to realize he was in a relationship with this new perspn who would eventually see him as he was. We all create a ripple in the future. The most important way is our children. I also went back to her dad only for him to end up doing exactly what I thought would happen. Endurance is the real truth.

Why doesn't Brett go the sexual addiction route?
It hasn't see to help other celebs who used it,
Rehab! Vicodin, alcohol, sex addiction.
Maybe he should join a reality show with Tiger
Woods, and Jesse James.

I highly doubt Brett did anything that Jenn Sterger is saying. Yes he admitted to voice mails but nothing else. Explain these then

1.)Why did this come out right before the Jets/Vikings game. Especially when the Jets are known to get under people's skin right before.

2.)This is coming out 2 years after the fact?!

3.)No one has released names of the supposed massage therapists who are claiming aggressive persuing.

4.)Jenn Sterger isn't cooperating with the NFL and their investigation.

Brett Favre may have left a VM or 2 but he isn't that much of a dick as everyone seems to think he is. Stop listening to the media and think about it. Also I'm pretty sure Deanna would leave if it was anything serious.

What I see here is a bunch of people pointing the finger at something that they really don't know that much about. Remember the old saying, when you point the finger, four of them are pointing back at you. This is all a bunch of CRAP. I think that Brett and Deanna have done a good job at taking care of their own business and it would be nice if everyone would let them do just that.
Brett is the BEST Quarterback in history! He's had a few tribulations in his life, who hasn't? I think he has handled this well and that most of it is a lie. He has done so much for football. Thanks for the memories Brett. You deserve a nice retirement.
