BRISTOL, Conn. (Oct. 26) - 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.

if she was pretty i bet she would still have a job because there would be some other big shot after her, now that he know she is broken in, it would not take much to get her in bed, but a happy meal

I would assume they both violated company policy. Most large companies have a policy in place forbidding this. Employees in higher level positions cannot go around carrying on with subordinates. It creates a hostile work environment. Both are to blame here, but the burden of the blame lies with Mr. Phillips. He is in the higher position of power and should know better. Besides, he is older and supposed to be more mature and he is married.

He got what he deserved, he should never get another job in broadcasting or sports!!! This is his second time(that we know of). He got caught pulling the same $hit on his wife and family while the G.M. with the N.Y. Mets and it got his @ss fired. ESPN should have never hired him knowing he had all this damned baggage! He always thinks with the "wrong head", what a selfish excuse for a man. All Steve Phillips cares about is "Steve Phillips".

They both got what they deserve. Though she wasn't married, and the brunt of it was his, she made it way too public. Shame on both of them for putting the innocent bystanders, his wife and kids, in the center of such a controversy. They both have some serious issues and ESPN doesn't need the embarassment. Phillips should crawl in a cave for all he's put his family through not once but TWICE...shame on him.

It's only fair that if they fired him they should fire her, too. That woman is a psycho. These old men who think that these 22 year old women really want them and not their money are morons. Why not have a mid-life crisis and buy a sports car - yeah you still look like an idiot but the sports car won't cause you to lose your wife, your job and half of your assets. What an idiot.
