Brett Favre Forces Pat McAfee To Make Heartbreaking Media Post

Brett Favre has been making headlines for all of the wrong reasons lately.  The former Green Bay Packers quarterback had his name connected in relation to the scandal, where he is alleged to have coordinated with officials to secure TANF funding for a wellness center in Southern Mississippi.  Favre has not yet been charged with a crime. The Hall of Fame quarterback is now seeking retribution for alleged defamation by two media members. According to a report by Alex Raskin with The Daily Mail, Favre is suing Shannon Sharpe and Pat McAfee for “defamatory allegations” related to the welfare case:

“Shannon Sharpe and Pat McAfee tried to further their careers by making baseless defamatory allegations against Brett Favre,’ a spokesperson for the 53-year-old told DailyMail.com.

Sharpe, a Hall of Fame tight end with the Broncos and Ravens, called Favre a ‘sleazeball’ on his FS1 show in September while accusing the retired quarterback of knowingly stealing $1.1 million in Mississippi welfare funds in exchange for speeches that he never made. McAfee, a former Colts punter who now hosts a popular SiriusXM podcast, accused Favre of ‘stealing from the poor people of Mississippi.’

Pat McAfee Questions Future In Media In long Twitter Post

In a post on Twitter, Pat McAfee posted the following:

Man… brain’s been COOKIN Excited to get back but I love this annual think sesh at the beach with my bride.. The future of #PMSLive has been a lot of fun to think about.. Going thru all of the numbers.. facts are facts.. We’ve really been quite a fucking disruptor in this whole daily Sports Media world. I’m VERY proud of it.. We don’t have producers giving us takes or researchers telling us what to talk about.. We don’t have any investors.. We don’t have a “lead in audience” or “people leaving their TVs on over night”.. We, alongside our incredible fanbase, built this thing both literally and figuratively.. we decide what to chat about.. we pay for the footage rights.. We negotiate the deals with our partners.. and we changed the game. That’s rather epic… what’s next though? A LOT of fun to think about.. Show will always be free but we need to keep evolving.

Baby girl on the way… what’s that mean for my future with WWE? I LOVE it but, they’re allegedly gonna be sold, who’s buying them? Do I want to work/make money for those people? How about

@CollegeGameDay? That was a good time… No long term deal in place but, I enjoyed the workload that came with being a part of one of the most iconic shows in the history of sports. I think we had the greatest year it’s had in like 2 decades or something ratings wise… fucking WILD.. I was told a lot of Old Whites weren’t gonna watch because of me.. Got to see so many insanely beautiful campuses/places.. being new man on the totem pole when it came to hotel rooms (impossible to book, Shahtaht to the GameDay crew behind the scenes.. absolute LEGENDS) was good for me. Took me back to my roots… will DEFINITELY be getting a bus if GameDay continues to be in the ol’ life schedule.

What’s our future with FanDuel? 190,000+ people rode with us for our Super Bowl SGP.. Patrick Mahomes is a DAWG but didn’t throw for 225 yards, so we didn’t hit the largest group bet/hit in Sports gambling history.. we apologize for letting everybody DAHN on the boosts this year.. TOUGH year to predict.. We and the new group of FD execs don’t necessarily have the same philosophical views on stuff, nothing but love for them, they are doing their thing but, certainly a different way of operating these days.. we’ve been lucky to be with them since Day 1 of legalized sports gambling… and we’re proud that they have been the #1 Sportsbook in America ever since. How’s that shape up before next football season? As with every year… the boys are all getting raises. I think that’s how businesses are supposed to go.

I’m still getting sued by Brett Favre… allegedly So many things from a business point of view for a tank top wearing dumbass to ponder.. but I’m incredibly proud to be in the position that we’re in. All of this without an agent or a booker… they gotta be flustered. Cheers and thank you to the boys.. their families.. and all of you beautiful people that follow along with us.

Let’s keep it going.
