SI.com: NFL had to do something about Favre allegations
The NFL's $50,000 fine against Brett Favre, for failing to cooperate with its investigation of lewd photos and voice mails allegedly sent to former Jets employee Jenn Sterger, came as no surprise to SI.com's Peter King.
With pressure on the league to address the accusations, Commissioner Roger Goodell was compelled to act in some way, King says.
But does the penalty Favre received suit the offenses he was accused of? That remains a cause for debate, but the mere fact that Favre received this punishment speaks volumes about the league and the position it found itself in, King contends.
"This basically was such a black eye for the league that Roger Goodell felt that he had to act in some way, and so a fine and sort of a public slap on the wrist was what he felt like he should do," King told Inside Report's Maggie Gray. "I think the big story here is that it's obvious that they could not absolutely, definitively connect the lewd photos that were sent to Jenn Sterger were absolutely sent from Brett Favre and were pictures of Favre himself."
Meanwhile, bowl madness rolls along today (all times Eastern, all on ESPN):

@ Big Joe hmmm. Close but no dr bad. We all miss his rants. Aggravating, but crazy!
The girl wants to get in Pkay boy before she expires and what better way. Whether it happened or not she isn't worth a damn for turning him in.
Jenn has seen more di'cks than an army doctor.
Jenn Sterger was already in Playboy. I'm not buying the "damaged delicate flower" routine from her either. Favre was definitely after her though. An innocent man would deny everything publicly until he was blue in the face. He's a real nice guy for running around his cancer laden wifey.
Has anyone seen my baddy waddy oompkins?
One of the voices in my head has told Dr. Mhendi is studying for the postal exam in Costa Rica.
Big Joe must have passed out finally
