Brooke Hundley, the ESPN production assistant whose affair with baseball analyst Steve Phillips has been splashed across gossip pages for nearly a week, is no longer employed at the cable network. ESPN has revealed that Hundley no longer works for the company, but declined to say whether or not she was fired.
Steve, what were you thinkin’, man? She looks like Rosie?!
Baseball analyst Steve Phillips was fired by ESPN on Sunday night, less than a week after he admitted having an affair with a “delusional” production assistant at the network.
Entertainment Tonight has obtained the audio from a 911 call made by Marni Phillips — the long-suffering wife of womanizing ESPN analyst and former general manager of the New York Mets Steve Phillips. On the approximately three-minute tape, Marni can be heard frantically alerting an emergency dispatcher that Brooke Hundley, the 22-year-old ESPN production assistant sleeping with her husband, was outside the family’s Connecticut home threatening her.
“Please help. I have a crazy woman who’s involved with my husband and she’s come to my house to harm me and my children,” Marni cries. “She’s crazy. … She has been threatening me via texts and phone calls.”

Looks like late NFL great Steve McNair had yet another bed warmer, in addition to his wife of more than a decade and the unstable 20-year-old accused of blowing his brains out. The first photos of the Titans quarterback’s other other other woman, Leah Ignagni, were obtained by CBS News’ Crimesider Blog on Tuesday. Ignagni is a 25-year-old editor at 61Five, a start-up magazine about Nashville nightlife.
Nashville police named Ignagni in a case summary, released Monday, regarding the murder of NFL star McNair, who they believe was killed by his other lover Sahel Kazemi. Ignagni claims Kazemi once followed her to her Nashville-area condo in the black Cadillac Escalade McNair purchased for her 20th birthday.
Kazemi was described as “outgoing,” “positive,” and “very happy and upbeat all the time” by her former live-in-boyfriend of four years, Keith Norfleet, who blasts claims the brunette beauty had been suicidal. The CBS report notes that Kazemi had $2,500 in her bank account, contradicting a claim that she offed herself because she was drowning in debt.
A three-month investigation into the July shooting deaths of retired Titans quarterback Steve McNair and the young waitress authorities say was his girlfriend is raising questions about how the pair died.
Authorities have always maintained that Sahel “Jenni” Kazemi shot McNair, a 36-year-old married father of four, four times with a 9 mm pistol in the early morning hours Independence Day at a Nashville condo he rented with a friend before turning the gun on herself. But is that what really happened?
