A former ESPN production assistant whose affair with broadcaster Steve Phillips led to their firings says she confronted his wife only so he would stop pursuing her.




New Rules









Achilles' heel: A woman did in Steve Phillips. One might get you too. So Jason Whitlock presents a new set of rules to govern sports celebrities' extra-marital activities.







Brooke Hundley told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Thursday that she never stalked the baseball analyst and that he harassed her, not the other way around. Both were fired in October after the affair became public.

In a statement, ESPN told ABC that its investigation found Hundley's characterization of the events as inconsistent.

Phillips acknowledged his relationship with the 22-year-old Hundley, and the details were splashed across New York tabloids for days.

Telephone messages were left Thursday for Hundley, Bristol, Conn.-based ESPN and Phillips' spokesman. Phillips' wife, Marni, declined to comment.
