    Nearly $100 million in federal grant funds intended to support programs forMississippi's poor were spent on cars, lobbyists, concerts, football games and companies run by former NFL quarterback Brett Favre and a family of professional wrestlers, among other charges listed in a 100-page audit revealing the state's largest-ever embezzlement scheme.

    Maybe not deep doo doo for Favre,  but he definitely got in ankle deep....to the tune of about 1.1 million received of the embezzled funs.  The allegation is not that he embezzled the money, but that he was the recipient of the stolen funds.  I suspect he could pay it back easily.

      He needs to call Jimmy Haslam and ask him who his lawyers were.

        Why do these successful players get involved in this nickel/dime crap in the first place?   "Stupid is as stupid does"......

        Career NFL earnings of players in #4 area code, he has over $137M not counting endorsements and investments.    😕

                  Maybe he didn’t receive the money and they were bogus invoices.

                        That's gotta hurt his FICO score... ?

                        Gotta be some Mississippi state gov't heads rolling in the near future... not to mention an NCAA investigation of MSU.
