The NFL, through spokesman Greg Aiello, has indicated that it will take no action regarding Brett Favre's reported contact with the Lions (and perhaps others) as he is in violation of no NFL rule.

That is true.

But neither was Warren Sapp when he plowed into Chad Clifton. Yes, it was a completely legal hit. And without question the work of an asshole.

The Favre story, if true, is the equivalent.
