Sleazy Sidedish uses Craigslist to Harrass Steve Phillips' Wife

NewYorkPost.com- After ESPN talking head Steve Phillips dumped his portly, production-assistant lover, the jilted woman posted a Craigslist ad offering $50 for someone to call Phillips' wife and cruelly taunt her, The Post has learned.

A Connecticut waitress answered the ad for the "urgent job," which didn't mention Phillips and was posted on Aug. 5 by ESPN employee and ex-Phillips lover Brooke Hundley.

Hundley hid her identity by calling herself "Kelly Burns" -- and even provided the woman a script to read over the phone, the waitress said yesterday. The script called for Arp to say Steve Phillips had been cheating with a "young woman at our work," and that "if you want to catch them tonight, they are planning to meet after the show at 12:30ish in the Target parking lot of I-84 just down from work."

The script even included instructions like: "Pause and act like this is really hard for you to tell her." (for Brooke's e-mail to Arp go here.)

Arp told The Post that after Marni Phillips answered her phone, "I got as far as saying, 'You don't know me, but I work with Steve,' and she hung up."

Arp said that the next day, Hundley had her call Marni again and leave two voice-mail messages.

"But [Hundley] seemed upset that I still didn't talk to [Phillips' wife] in person," Arp said. "That's when I started to think a little bit, 'This girl is crazy.' "

Oh man. This is great. Pure gold, I tell ya. Pure gold! I mean, I thought the girls I hooked up with were fucking crazy. Turns out I've been easy street!

Undoubtedly, Brooke Hundley doesn't have it all upstairs. Craig's List to find a 'phone stalker'? I've always been a believer in if you want something done right...hire someone through an anonymous website to do it for you. It's just how I was raised. But in all seriousness, the blame can be passed all the way around here. Steve Phillips, what are you doing with someone who looks like a coke whore? I mean, c'mon. You're on TV for Christ's sake. And maybe Hundley wouldn't have done this if you met her at a classier place than the Target parking lot off I-85. Maybe the Super 8? I hear they have great hourly rates.

How dire are Arp's straits to be surfing through Craig's List and actually think this would be something she could excel at? It was for 50 god damn dollars! What are you doing with your life Courtney Arp?

The blame can't all go on Hundley here, but I love this story. I hope more information is on the way.
