That's Not Funny

From the LVRJ and Adam Hill talking about Brett Favre and his final return to the Minnesota Vikings:
What exactly was it that made Brett Favre give it one more go with the Minnesota Vikings in 2010?
He signed with the team in 2009, and the Vikings went on a magical ride that ended a late fourth-quarter interception short of the Super Bowl.
"First of all, the money was too good," Favre said in an interview with Deion Sanders for the NFL Network transcribed by the Minneapolis Star Tribune. "The money was too good. And I hate to say it's about money. I felt the money was a lot. But the guys, I kind of felt like even though I knew it was going to be next to impossible (to duplicate the 2009 success) - I wouldn't tell them (that). Sidney (Rice), Jared (Allen), (Steve) Hutchinson and Adrian (Peterson), they were like, 'Unfinished business.' I just knew that it probably was finished."

Then Hill opines: 
Still, money couldn't have been the only thing that brought one of the game's biggest divas back for one more season.
Favre had actually just purchased a new phone plan with unlimited text messaging and had heard about a whole new crop of young females working for the team.
Maybe it's me, but sexual harassment really isn't really a funny joke.
Maybe Hill ought to look out for this guy:
