Two years after he led his team to a spectacular Super Bowl win, New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton has been slapped with a 12-month suspension for his role in the bounty system scandal.

In addition to sacrificing their highly respected head coach for a year, the Saints will also lose their second round picks in the 2012 and 2013 NFL drafts and be fined $500,000, while former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was suspended indefinitely, and general manager Mickey Loomis is banned from the first eight regular-season games, reported ESPN.com.

What, Brett Favre changed his mind at the last minute again? (We kid, we kid.) 

Filling out the jock slot on the 14th season of Dancing with the Stars is Donald Driver, the steady wide receiver who’s been flagging down passes for the Green Bay Packers since 1999, which might as well be an eternity in the rough-and-tumble world of the NFL, where the high chance of injury makes every player on the field a play away from retirement, if not worse.

Jenn Sterger, the ex-New York Jets sideline reporter who was reportedly the target of Brett Favre's sexting indiscretions during his 2008 stint on the Jets, told Good Morning America on Tuesday that the three-time NFL MVP "was like that guy at the bar that just could not get the hint."

Sterger, breaking her silence to ABC's George Stephanopoulos after months of laying low, said she's realized she "was in a lot of trouble" when the married father-of-two reportedly sent explicit pictures of his private parts, racy text messages and leering voice mails to her in hopes of a rendezvous.

Jenn Sterger, the ex-New York Jets sideline reporter who was reportedly the target of Brett Favre's sexting indiscretions, told Good Morning America on Monday that she wants her old life back, free of the notoriety that’s plagued her since the scandal broke last year.

Sterger, 27, said she's been unable to go back to work and be herself in the wake of the scandal, in which the married father-of-two reportedly sent pictures of his genitalia, racy text messages and leering voice mails during his 2008 stint on the Jets.

Sterger broke her silence to ABC's George Stephanopoulos after months of laying low, saying her life has been gloomy since her interactions with the three-time league MVP made national headlines.

Jenn Sterger's lawyer Jeff Brown wants sports agent Phil Reese to remove images of the attractive brunette from his official Player Relations Public Relations website, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.

Despite the fact that Sterger has filed a lawsuit against Reese to prevent him using Brett Favre's 'sexting messages' to her for commercial gains, the powerful agent still has two  images of her on his site.

Sexy Sterger is on a photo reel including sports stars and celebrities like Floyd Mayweather, Matt Dillon, John Legend, Miles Austin and Eli Manning, which are used to promote Player Relations Public Relations in New York.

Her lawyer Jeff Brown told RadarOnline.com: "He should take the images down now. "Jenn is doing fine and we are confident we have a really solid case here because Mr Reese has no binding contractual agreement with my client.

"Jenn Sterger does not want to profit in anyway from Brett Favre's communications and she never believed that Mr Reese wanted to use them for those purposes either.

"My client has remained silent about this for four years now and the truth is that it has impaired her employment opportunities. She does not want to be known as the Brett Favre 'text woman' and Mr Reese has no right to have any communications in his possession. He will have to return them or we will pursue our litigation against him which we are very confident will be successful."

Sterger filed the lawsuit in Hillsborough County Circuit Court Tuesday, contending that Reese plans to use the e-mails, texts and other digital communications to Sterger from the NFL legend in a book of his own.

In court documents, Sterger claims that she never intended the agent to have full use of the voicemails and images and asks a judge to invalidate a book agreement with manager Phillip Reese.

The Sterger and Favre story blew-up after the website Deadspin published texts and lewd images that they claimed were sent by the famous quarterback.

The Gridiron legend admitted sending voicemails but not images to Sterger while he was playing for the New York Jets and she was a game-day host for the team in 2008.

Favre was fined $50,000 by the NFL for not cooperating with their probe into the scandal.

Phil Reese defended his former client claiming that texts and photos did not come from her and that Favre had communicated with Sterger throughout the entire football season but centered around Jets home games.

Phil Reese was not available for comment, RadarOnline.com was told.

brunette and RadarOnline.com has the documents.

COURT DOCUMENTS: Read Jenn Sterger's Lawsuit Against Phil Reese

Sterger filed the lawsuit in Hillsborough County Circuit Court Tuesday, contending that Reese plans to use the e-mails, texts and other digital communications to Sterger from the NFL legend in a book of his own.

NFL superstar Brett Favre has still not apologized to Jenn Sterger for sending her illicit text messages, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Favre was fined $50,000 for his part in the 'sexting' scandal after it emerged that he had allegedly sent pictures of his genitalia to ex-New York Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger during his stint on the team two years ago.

But Sterger's agent Phil Reese admitted to RadarOnline.com that the Gridiron hero has still not reached-out to his client to simply say 'sorry' for the incident that tarnished his glittering career.

Reese revealed: "There has been no contact. Jen is doing fine though and has a few new projects in the pipeline which, hopefully, we will be able to announce soon."

And although he hasn't apologized to Sterger, Favre did provide a "very emotional" apology to his teammates back in October 2010 according to reports.

Many observers felt that Favre - who was earning $16 million a year at the time of the incident - should have received a heavier fine.

It would have only taken three minutes of his playing time with his last club the Minnesota Vikings to pay the $50k fine.

The league said Commissioner Roger Goodell "could not conclude" that Favre violated the league's personal conduct policy based on the evidence currently available to him.

"The forensic analysis could not establish that Favre sent the objectionable photographs to Sterger," the statement said. However, Goodell determined that Favre was "not candid in several respects during the investigation."

Two other former New York Jets' massage therapists filed suits against him in the wake of a lewd texting scandal.

Christina Scavo and Shannon O'Toole filed papers in the Supreme Court of New York last month.

They alleged the quarterback made passes at them while they were working for the Jets.

The lawsuits allege that Favre text messaged another woman to "get together" with Scavo for Favre's pleasure.

Scavo also alleges that Favre treated her like "a hanging slab of meat," asking for "a three-way" with the women.

He also allegedly sent a  follow up text, saying: "Kinda lonely tonight I guess I have bad intentions."
The troubled NFL star recently stood-by his younger sister, Brandi Favre, after she was arrested along with five other people for allegedly creating a crystal meth lab in Diamondhead, Missouri.

Man-of-many clubs Favre has still not formally announced his retirement from professional football although many observers believe he has played his last game.

The 41-year-old filed his retirement papers with the NFL after finishing his 20th season but he could still change his mind and play again if he is picked up by a team and the league reinstates him.
