ESPN's Phillips admits shame in sex scandal:

He's benched!

Married ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips yesterday began "an extended leave of absence," after admitting he had sex with a 22-year-old production assistant who allegedly stalked his family in "Fatal Attraction"-fashion when he dumped her.

"I am deeply sorry that I have put my family and colleagues through this," said the ex-Mets GM, 46, confessing to a tawdry three-day stand in July with Brooke Hundley.

"It is a personal matter that I will not comment on further. I have, however, asked for a leave of absence to address this with my family and to avoid any unnecessary distractions through the balance of the baseball playoffs," said the father of four, a former Mets general manager.

"Leave of absence follows in the wake of an affair with a production assistant that turned ugly."

Wow, he and Dirk Nowitzki must have similar taste in women..

I dont know what's funnier....someone saying that the girl looks like Pete Rose or Rubber's Thank you

He was officially fired...

What's ESPN's loss is MLB Networks gain I would suppose....they've done it before

Let's be real about this.

If Brooke Uglyface happened to be amazingly attractive, Steve Phillips would have gotten a raise.

I think the problem is he DID get a raise, and that's why he was fired.

One more thing...
