Hell Hath No Fury Like A Deadspin Scorned

Since Steve Phillips' shenanigans came out via a NY Post"exclusive", there's been neverending coverage on the suspended ESPN analyst and his 22-year-old "tubby temptress." But Deadspin claims they heard about it over a month ago, and were given the cold shoulder by ESPN PR. So now it's on: "And since the tenuous connection between rumor and fact for accuracy's sake has been a little eroded here, well, it's probably about time to just unload the inbox of all the sordid rumors we've received over the years about various ESPN employees." Deadspin has already posted about two such "horndogs," with the promise of more to come.

She is well qualified to doing burlesque

His problem: he broke rule number 3.

RULE #3 says, if you are going to cheat on your wife, cheat up.

Do not disrespect the mother of your kids by messing with a cheap ass whack-o, or a skank (I am not saying that this woman is a skank, just the rule).

Mr Mel

She may or may not be a skank. She is definitely a whacko.

"How could he tame such a woman of such large girth?"

he's dating that chick from Hairspray!

Hey Steve, take off the beer goggles.

Wow that that ESPN dude looks like he has his arm around a hog.

Can't chicks be happy with what they get? They have to live in a fantasy world too? Most guys who cheat just want a little bit of excitement and sex on the side -- that's it. It's not about "I love you" or any bullshit like that.

Why can't a woman be more like a man?

"Why can't a woman be more like a man?"

Oddly, I think she is.

fauxsella

Well, the truth had to come out eventually. She did have a heavy heart after all.

oh, and she drinks gravy through a straw.

I don't get it. Deadspin feels ESPN PR owed them a confirmation when Deadspin approached them a month ago? Really? (I'm not about to click through to see precisely what Deadspin has written about this.)

People at ESPN like to get laid, so what? This is news? Did everyone think they were a bunch of celibate monks?

Kojak

You know how we all love a good sex scandal every now and then, even if its much ado about nothing.

That's plenty of woman to love. How could he tame such a woman of such large girth?
