Steve Phillips Owns Up About Sex Addiction Problem

Former ESPN baseball analyst and New York Mets GM Steve Phillips, appears to have owned up recently to having a sex addiction problem in August last year – only two months before he was fired from his job by the network.

According to a report at sports.espn.go.com, Steve sat an interview with Matt Lauer on NBC’s “The Today Show” recently, and it was within this interview that Steve admitted his mistakes, and said that he is fully responsible for what he did.

Phillips was speaking publicly for the first time, since he left the Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services clinic in Hattiesburg – the exact same clinic that troubled golfer Tiger Woods was reported to have attended recently.

Although Phillips didn’t really talk extensively about his stay at Pine Grove, he did say that it is a place for people who are broken and are struggling to find the answers. Steve said he knew back in August, that he needed help.

The former ESPN employee, said that he realized he had a sexual addiction problem in August, while he was still having an affair with ESPN production assistant Brooke Hundley, who was also let go by the ESPN network.
