    <font size="1"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">An 82-year-old Texas woman who pleaded guilty to trying to extort $2 million from Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr has been sentenced to one year of probation. </font></font></font></p>

    <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">A federal judge also ordered Ruby Y. Young of Kerrville to not have any contact with Starr or his family or contact the media about an alleged relationship she had with the Green Bay Packers legend in 1960.At Wednesday's sentencing, U.S. District Judge Royal Furgeson asked Young whether she still harbored feelings about Starr and whether she had ever sought counseling.Young said she hadn&rsquo;t met with a therapist, but had spoken about it with her daughter, who is an elder in the Presbyterian church. In addition, Young said she reads her Bible.&ldquo;I know you should forgive,&rdquo; Young said. &ldquo;Mr. Starr is the last one I&rsquo;m working on.&rdquo;Starr, 73, was MVP of the first two Super Bowls for the Packers.Court documents show that Young sent a 3&frac12;-page letter to Starr in October 2006 that read, in part, "And now, the time has come for you to pay - to pay for the many injuries you caused me."The letter continued, "I am going to be vindicated one way or another. You know very well that any and all tabloids, TV news casters such as ABC, CBS, NBC would simply devour this story."Young pleaded guilty in June.She declined to comment after Wednesday&rsquo;s hearing. Her attorney, Guy James Gray said he and his client were pleased with the outcome. </font></font></p>
