Pat McAfee gives lengthy response to Brett Favre lawsuit.

The Pat McAfee Show has become one of the largest sports talk shows in the country. McAfee recently had the entire NFL world in the palm of his hands with his recent interview with Aaron Rodgers. Fans of the show enjoy McAfee's style of delivering the news. The show doesn't hold back. Sometimes, it may even cost Pat a legal headache. One of those headaches is coming in the form of former Packers QB Brett Favre.

A few months back, Favre issued a defamation lawsuit to McAfee. Favre claimed that McAfee was slandering his name when discussing Favre's alleged involvement in a Mississippi legal case. The former QB has been accused of allegedly stealing funds from Mississippi Welfare. From the beginning, McAfee felt the lawsuit against him was baseless and would soon blow over. However, now it seems McAfee is ready for a legal battle if the decision to throw out the case doesn't go his way.

Pat McAfee Offers Favre A Charitable Solution

In a lengthy Tweet sent by McAfee earlier today, the popular show host offered Favre an invitation. McAfee asked, "Brett, match me with a donation to a Big Brothers Big Sisters foundation in Mississippi. Let’s help out the next generation of Mississippians together. Let’s give some support to the citizens of your state who might need it a little bit, and let’s make something positive out of this sad clown show of a defamation suit with no merit."

The situation does seem a bit odd, considering many have discussed the alleged legal issue. However, if Favre were to accept McAfee's offer to donate money, it could smooth things over. Favre's legal issues are far from over. Additionally, the Hall-of-Fame QB is still awaiting his fate in the Mississippi Welfare Fraud case. Will this situation blow over for McAfee? Does McAfee have a point on the lawsuit infringing on his rights? Will Brett Favre accept McAfee's offer to donate money to the Boys & Girls Club?
