"ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips acknowledges having an affair with an assistant at the cable network, and has taken a leave of absence during the playoffs. Phillips says in a statement released by ESPN Wednesday that he's sorry to have "put his family and colleagues through this." ESPN has granted Phillips' request for time off, and has taken unspecified disciplinary action. Police say 22-year-old ESPN production assistant Brooke Hundley called Phillips' wife in August after he broke off the affair and sent her a letter graphically describing their relationship. Phillips says he will not press charges. The status of the police investigation was unclear Wednesday. ESPN says Hundley is still working for the network (FoxNews)."
I like Steve Phillips a lot, and I really couldn't care less that he was slamming some 22 year old production assistant. It sounds like she really had no reason to bring Phillips wife into this, other then to ruin him. In the end, you shouldn't cheat on your wife, but I watch ESPN for entertainment, not morals.
Phillips you'll be missed.
