Jenn Sterger Goes On Good Morning America and Denies that She's A Gold-Digger, But Should We Believe Her?

Admit it, when you heard that Jenn Sterger was going to be on Good Morning America, you thought you went back in time to Week 9 of the football season, didn't you?

Somehow, someway, the powers that be at Good Morning America decided that it was time to get Sterger on to tell her side of the story about the scandal that turned the heat up on Brett Favre and further ruined the image of the ironman quarterback.

Per Cathy Burke of the New York Post:

"I'm not a gold-digger," Jenn Sterger told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos in a "Good Morning America" interview.

"The only way I wanted to make my money this whole time was to just have a job."

Both Sterger and Favre worked for the Jets in 2008 when the randy granddaddy allegedly threw a pass at the curvy game-day hostess, as first reported last October by the sports blog Deadspin.com.

He later admitted to calling Sterger but denied sending nudie pics of himself.

Sterger said the ordeal turned her life "upside down."

"It was tough. It was embarrassing. It was humiliating," she said. "All I wanted to do was go to work. Do my job. That's all I wanted."

I don't buy any of this for a second. First, as far as the claim about wanting to do her job and nothing else, there is no reason that she should have talked to Deadspin about the pictures if she just wanted to do her job.

If Sterger just wanted to be a hard-worker, trying to get ahead in the world of sports, there is no way she would have been so open about the fact that those pictures and voicemails existed.

Furthermore, someone wouldn't have been able to get those pictures and audio clips and eventually sell them to Deadspin if she wasn't showing them around at some point.

The whole thing stinks of someone who's trying to get sympathy after looking like someone who wanted to help drag this out for money. Why else would she have taken forever to talk to the NFL about this if it was horrible and humiliating?

To me, this sounds like someone who has buyer's remorse and is trying to get sympathy for doing something shady.

Well, she shouldn't get an ounce of it. She didn't deserve to have Favre harassing her, but she shouldn't get sympathy for trying to exploit it either.

Sterger helped create this mess, now she's stuck with it.
