BRISTOL, Conn. (AP)—An ESPN spokesman says the production assistant whose affair with Steve Phillips led to the baseball analyst’s firing is no longer with the sports network.
Spokesman Mike Soltys said Monday that Brooke Hundley doesn’t work at ESPN anymore. He declined to say whether she quit or was fired. Hundley did not immediately return a phone message Monday.
Connecticut-based ESPN fired Phillips on Sunday night, less than a week after he admitted to an affair with the 22-year-old assistant. A representative for Phillips has also said he was entering a treatment facility.
ESPN says Phillips’ ability to be an effective representative of the network had been “irreparably damaged.”
Phillips is a former general manager of the New York Mets.

These phony Victorians of ESPN are covering the cesspool of professional sports and they fire a man and forced a young woman from their midst for doing what so many of the sports stars they glorify do openingly.

Looks like doing a Letterman or a Clinton does not always work out so well...

Don't be so sure. I smell a sexual Harassment lawsuit. And it may be justified. We shall see.

He is a creep, the network is full of hypocrites, but the woman he was involved with is hardly an innocent victim. Remember she wrecked her car outside Phillip’s house after leaving a letter for his wife detailing the affair, and cyber-stalked his son to ask questions about his parents’ marriage. Phillips is lucky his son didn’t have a pet rabbit. I say a plague on all their houses.

She is a relative kid and he is a married man like Letterman, Edwards, Spitzer et al and I am a man. The poor girl is not very attractive but he is more of an idiot then her.

Interestingly, he plays the rehab card and goes for treatment for sexual addiction. She, on the other hand, with always be the deranged stalker.
If I had a sexual addiction, I’d do it right and bust out my Mastercard and such on good looking ...ummm...entrepreneurs.
