"Allegations of misbehavior by Brett Favre while he played for the Jets in 2008 did not end with the $50,000 that the N.F.L. fined him last week for not cooperating with its investigation.
ABC News reported Monday on its Web site that two massage therapists who worked for the team allege sexual harassment in a lawsuit filed against Favre, the Jets and Lisa Ripi, who performs massage and acupuncture for the team.
According to the ABC News report, the massage therapists, Christina Scavo and Shannon O'Toole, alleged that Favre made unwanted advances toward them. The Jets and Ripi are included in the suit because Scavo and O'Toole also described the team, its locker room and its training camp facility as "a hotbed of sexual harassment, sexism and inappropriate behavior," and they said the Jets refused to hire them again after the alleged incidents in 2008.
