Unfortunately, things are not looking too golden for NFL legend Brett Favre.

From Minnesota's poor start to injury issues to controversial text message and more with sideline sports reporter Jenn Sterger, Favre's life has literally been flipped upside down.

Sadly, it appears as though Favre and Tiger Woods may be sharing a common thread in terms of morals, values, honesty, and integrity.

For Favre, Woods, and many more around the globe, those four ideals have been completely tossed out the window.

In terms of on the field issues and Favre, the Vikings QB has an elbow injury that may limit or prevent him from playing in the Monday Night Football matchup against the New York Jets.

As far as the textual conversations between Favre and Sterger, this latest controversy is everywhere—on the radio, TV, internet, and cell phones.

And Favre's 41st birthday is surrounded by inappropriate behavior rather than how Minnesota can bounce back from an awful start to the season.

In addition, the NFL is speeding up it's process on investigating the matter—although numerous news services are saying there is no timetable for when it might conclude.

It has also been recently revealed that Favre may have exchanged inappropriate messages with two other female massage therapists that worked for the Jets while he was New York's play-caller in 2008.

When will it end?

Who knows...

Heading into week 7 of the college football season, the Big 12 Conference is well represented in this week's Coaches Poll top 10.

No. 4 Nebraska and No. 6 Oklahoma are both battling for BCS position, with the much-anticipated polls set to be released on Oct. 17.

Glancing at the latest Coaches Poll, the Cornhuskers have 1,272 points while the Sooners have 1,193 points.

Both schools are on the verge of those coveted top two spots—and with plenty of football remaining in the 2010 season, Nebraska and Oklahoma are both within striking distance of the BCS Championship Game.

Honestly, how in the world is Alabama still ranked ahead of LSU?

Granted, Bama was No. 1 in the nation until they lost to Steve Spurrier and the South Carlina Gamecocks this past weekend, but a loss is a loss.

And with LSU sitting pretty and undefeated, it's baffling that the Crimson Tide are still ranked above the Tigers.

In the Coaches Poll, Alabama is currently No. 8 (1,029 points) while LSU is No. 9 (1,021 points).

After Alabama's stunning loss this past weekend, things have definitely been shuffled up in college football.

And with the BCS Rankings just a week away from being released, let's take a closer look at on-the-brink teams such as Boise State and TCU.

Both the Broncos and Horned Frogs remain undefeated, and when looking at the Coaches Poll (the only way to really judge things prior to next week's BCS Rankings release), both teams could easily find themselves in the fight for a top 2 spot.

Currently, Boise State is No. 3 in the Coaches Poll (1,335 points) and TCU is No. 5 (1,213 points).

Although the official BCS Rankings are still a week away from being released, teams such as Ohio State and Oregon are looking solid heading into week 7.

Looking at the Coaches Poll, the Buckeyes (1,455), Ducks (1,388), and Boise State Broncos (1,335) are leading the rankings with over 1,300 points.

No. 5 TCU (1,213) and No. 4 Nebraska (1,272) are right on the trio's heels, and in just seven days the official results will be released.

Thus far, though, count on teams like Ohio State and Oregon to be leaders of the pack on Oct. 17.

The San Francisco Giants are aiming to rebound from a crushing Game 2 loss, and thus far they are looking to take a series lead.

At the midway mark of the second inning, San Francisco has taken a 1-0 lead.

The Giants, coming off a heart-breaking 5-4 extra inning loss to the Braves on Saturday in San Francisco, are trying to rebound this afternoon in Atlanta.

Saturday's loss still stings for San Francisco.

From the inning ending double play in the 10th inning to the crushing home run by Braves outfielder Rick Ankiel in the 11th inning—a solo shot that landed in the cover, the first since Barry Bonds blasted a splash hit in 2002—the Giants are aiming for a major victory today.

“Let it go,” San Francisco's Aubrey Huff told Bay Area Baseball Examiner reporter Claire Reclosado following Saturday's loss. “It’s 1-1. We’re not 0-2. They got some good pitching over there, we’re going definitely have to do a better job hitting.”

According to Yahoo Sports, Tiger Woods' Cigar Guy identity has been revealed.

The report claims that the London Daily Mail did the investigative work, discovering that the Cigar Guy is Ruprsh Shingadia—a 30-year-old investment analyst whole lives at home with his parents in London.

"I wanted to do something to show my support for the European team, and I thought of Miguel [Angel Jimenez]," Shingadia told the Daily Mail. "These days sportsmen have become devoid of character. But Miguel does his own thing and I love the way he walks around the course with a cigar clamped between his teeth."

So no, Shingadia wasn't doing this for media attention—regardless of the TV cameras now following him intently.

"My friends were keen to get me together with Miguel," Shingadia said. "I was quite close to him at the 13th. I like to think there was a flicker of a smile when he looked in my direction. His caddie was certainly laughing."
