Get it? It's a cockfight.

NFL future Hall Of Fame quarterback Brett Favre is getting sued, but not by the former New York Jets employee that you’re expecting. Two massage therapists that used to work for the NFL club have filed suit against Favre, the Jets and a former club employee, and the money quote has to do with Favre essentially propositioning Christina Scavo and Shannon O’Toole for a threesome.

“Brett here. You and Crissy want to get together? I’m all alone,” the suit says Favre wrote. “Kinda of lonely tonight. I guess I have bad intentions,”

The third therapist, who did not join the suit, showed Scavo the message, which she brought to the attention of her husband, Joseph. The suit says Joseph Scavo contacted Favre and asked him to apologize and stop behaving inappropriately.

Favre “refused,” and “responded in an inappropriate manner,” the suit said.

Awesome. I don’t care whether Favre plays or doesn’t play in 2011 (spoiler alert: he won’t), but I could talk about sexual harassment for days. And really, you have to be a total ass for a massage therapist to sue you, let alone two massage therapists. These are people that grab your ass for a living. My uncle tried to do that once, but then he wound up and jail, and was forbidden from coaching girls’ soccer ever again.

We mentioned in the link dump that Brett Favre was scratched from the Minnesota Vikings’ active roster last night, thus ending the NFL’s longest streak of consecutive regular season games played at 297. That’s just over 18 and a half season’s worth of games, more than five times the length of the average playing career in pro football.

”I don’t want to say I’m shocked by the events of today. I guess in some way I expected it … but I have no idea. It’s unfortunate we’re out of this playoff race. I’ll just see how I feel this week and go from there.”

Favre’s injury, a sprained SC joint, is a rarity in sports, one that doctors say occurs most often when a person’s body slams against the steering wheel in an auto accident. –Fox Sports.

Favre wound up going down since the injury could not have been easily anesthetized in time for Monday’s kickoff. The last game where Brett Favre didn’t start, before last night? September 20, 1992. That’s really mind-blowing to me when I consider that I was still over a year away from getting my driver’s license, almost two years away from getting laid, and three years away from being charged by the feds with human trafficking. Formative years, indeed.

Much of the American sporting public enjoyed the exit of one Brett Lorenzo Favre from Sunday’s game against the Patriots. I was not one of those people. I have no excessive man-love for Favre, but man, that was just sad yesterday. As Favre was leading the Vikings to a loss against New England yesterday, he took a pretty mean shot to the chin from Myron Pryor. Favre left the field holding his chin, dripping with blood, as he was carted off to the locker room in a manner that was pretty pathetic for a guy with no lower body injury.

So what was the final blood toll? Eight stitches. EIGHT. I tackled a friend of mine in high school and busted his chin open, but at least he got 11. Why the hell are you taking a cart off the field to get eight stitches, Mister Fav-ray? No computo over here.

Anyway, you’re probably wondering how all of that Jenn Sterger business is going: her people are “having a dialogue with the NFL.” Which doesn’t mean that they’re talking. Only that they’re talking about talking. No wonder Brett just decided to send her pics of his junk (allegedly); she seems awfully high-maintenance for an actual relationship.
