Former Mets GM In "Fatal Attraction" Re-make With "Tubby Temptress"

Brooke Hundley and Steve Phillips

As if signing Mo Vaughn wasn't terrible enough, the Post is reporting today that ESPN baseball analyst and former NY Mets General Manager Steve Phillips was ensnared in a messy affair with a 22-year-old production assistant at ESPN, that ended with some not-too-pleasant hijinks. For instance, the assistant crashed her car into a stone column outside the Phillips' Wilton, Conn. home, after leaving a letter there describing intimacies of the affair (including squirmy details about birth marks in nether-regions).

Phillips admitted to police to sleeping with Brooke Hundley three times over three weeks this past summer. After he dumped her, the spurned Hundley allegedly began harassing the Phillips family, leaving phone messages and sending text messages to his wife Marni. Hundley even apparently contacted Phillips' 16-year-old son via Facebook, posing as a classmate and prying into his family's home life. The teen told police, "She asked inappropriate questions about my parents, such as: Do they sleep in the same bed? Do you think they will be getting a divorce? Do they fight a lot?"

Phillips has been suspended by ESPN because of the scandal, and his wife has filed for divorce from him. This isn't the first time Philips has been in this kind of trouble; in 1998, a year after being named GM to the Mets, Phillips was hit with a sexual harassment lawsuit from a former employee, and later admitted to several affairs. The Mets described it at the time as a "bump in the road," and Phillips survived the scandal, staying for five more tumultuous years with the organization. But with the attention he's getting today, this could prove to be a collapse truly worthy of association with the Mets.

Hundley's letter to Marni Phillips

UPDATE: More lurid details and documents about Philips and his "tubby temptress" (Oh Post, always with the smack talk) have been revealed. That includes a photo gallery, info about Hundley's professional aspirations, statements from all concerned parties (Phillips' wife's statement(PDF), Phillips' statement (PDF),
Phillips' 16-year-old son's statement (PDF)), and most engrossing/gross, the full text of the letter Hundley left for Phillips' wife (PDF). At least now we can rest at ease knowing he was a gentleman from their first liaison: "he assured me I wouldn't have to worry about getting pregnant since his vasectomy."

The guy obviously has homosexual "tendencies"...

DarkGemini

Yikes.

I feel like that photo should be in one of those motivational posters with the quote:

ROCK BOTTOM

You'll know it when you get there.

sexisicilian

HA! I would never admit to fucking her ... I don't care how drunk I was:(

Jen S

He sort of looks like the First Dude!

felixthecat2

I am glad he didn't have a bunny.

mellow_fellow

I can't wait to see if Letterman will make light of this in his monologue.

mellow_fellow

Bah, he's in reruns this week.

I wonder if Kimmel has been told by corporate higher-ups (ABC and ESPN are sister networks) to keep quiet about it.

ckl

Fat-al attraction.

Steven

where is her myspace profile?

felixthecat2

She took down her facebook account and linkin account

Nyctini11

Clarice City

Of course there's a myspae page. Sex scandal= myspace page

that_mother_chucker

EEEK.

And maybe I'm just getting discouraged about men in New York, but he seems significantly more attractive than her, age and all.

hotstepper

george hamilton called, he wants his tan back.

that_mother_chucker

I mean, not hot for an old dude... but I've seen young, pretty girls with much worse-looking guys in this city. It astonishes me every day.

militza

meh. that's not too shocking. different strokes for different folks.

hotstepper

wait. what?! i'm sorry to get sidetracked, but who the hell uses the term "vulva" outside of health class or the gynecologist?

felixthecat2

I was respectful since Mother chucker is female.

felixthecat2

Age before beauty, her vulva is fresh and young and his weiner is on wheels. Maybe if I was his age she might look good to me. don't know

WorksInDUMBO

you can't be serious--you call that "respectful"? you are a sexist jerk.

Mookie Wilson

Damn, dude. Just. Damn.

This is worse than signing Kaz Matsui.

Wza

hahaha!

I was gonna say, she's uglier than Vince Coleman.

jibbly

Only awesome thing Kaz ever did for the Mets was hit 3 consecutive lead off homers at his first at bats for 2004, 2005, and 2006.

ides_of_march

The NY Mutts.

hotstepper

alcohol can make a man do strange things. i am assuming alcohol is to blame for that!

maryjr

Poor sap...she actually thought all that shit he was telling her was the truth???

Bike Rider

the post is such trash. that said, haha tubby

NattyB

That's why you don't go to the Office Happy Hour.

gothamguy

Speechless.

NannyState

She only proves what a cheapskate Phillips is...with his own money.

Mr. Shankly

Yeah, Spitzer did much better....prettier, likely talented where it counts, and discrete. Damn Feds.

Mr Mel

He should have seen it coming.

jibbly

Holy moly, no need to get mean here, but MAN he should've found someone much better looking to have an affair with!

longacre

She's actually not so bad in some of the Post gallery's pics. But still not worth ruining your life over.

felixthecat2

young pussy

JenChungsBaby

If that's who he would cheat with then his wife must look like Grandpa Al Lewis.

JacqueMehoff

she could be one of the male interns from the howard stern show.

sorry bout my prev post, the oxy is kicking in.

she should wear make up if she's in broadcasting.

Mr. Shankly

“Networking is not sucking up.”

Great find, Post.

longacre

I'd still take him over Omar Minaya.

dwayno

wow. the thought of those two having sex is gross.

Nyctini11

Is that really a woman? He needs to get away from sports, it's blurring his vision drastically.

valeriob

These letters are crazy! This Brooke girl is a psycho!!

JacqueMehoff

I thought this was was an ex-player but he was a GM?

if they got rid of harold reynolds, they should get rid of him.

guess I assumed he was a player by his steve garvey looks.

I do like the other pitcher orel hershiser as an commenter.

Steven

Just probably wants some money from him.

Wza

On the next ESPN, Outside the lines...

The dark side of going from 1st base to home plate.

augustojr

Apparently this is what she looks like
