He has continually stated that he did nothing wrong from the very onset of the investigation. The 52-year-old was recently interviewed by the FBI. Favre has been slammed by fans and analysts alike, including Shannon Sharpe and Stephen A. Smith.Brett Favre could find himself in a lot of legal trouble for his part in the Mississippi welfare scandal. It is also very possible that this storyline is only just getting started.Udoka's relationship is considered a violation of the organization's guidelines. The proposed penalty for Udoka is largely unprecedented for a sitting head coach in the NBA. He is likely to be suspended for the entire season. Udoka led the Celtics to the NBA Finals in his first year as the franchise's head coach, losing to the Golden State Warriors.Both stories are noteworthy for different reasons, but Udoka's is being seen everywhere while Favre's is being discarded.
