John Murtha dies at 77; Pennsylvania Democrat forcefully opposed Iraq war in Congress

Rep. Murtha, the first Vietnam veteran to serve in Congress, called in 2005 for an immediate pullout of U.S. forces from Iraq. He also delivered billions in federal dollars to his home state.

John Murtha has passed away

John Murtha, the Democratic congressman from Pennsylvania and decorated former Marine whose fierce opposition to the Iraq war helped catalyze public sentiment against the conflict, died Monday. He was 77.

Murtha died at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, Va., surrounded by his family, his office announced. He had been hospitalized for a little more than a week with complications from gallbladder surgery.

Survivors include his wife, Joyce; his daughter, Donna; his sons, John and Patrick; and three grandchildren.

Although his turn against the war in 2005 made him a national figure, Murtha was known inside Washington for decades as the consummate behind-the-scenes deal maker, an old-line power broker and physically-imposing figure who unrepentantly delivered billions of federal dollars to his home state.  Read more here

Brooke Hundley

February 8th, 2010

Fired ESPN analyst Steve Phillips, who recently left the sex rehab clinic that has reportedly treated Tiger Woods, appeared on the “Today” show Monday morning to discuss his sex scandal and addiction.

“People look at sex addiction as an excuse; it’s not an excuse,” Phillips told Matt Lauer. “I’m fully responsible for everything that I did and accept responsibility for that.”

Phillips said he knew he had a problem before his affair with 22-year-old production assistant Brooke Hundley went public.  Read full story at the Huffington Post

Steve Phillips’ ex-lover Brooke Hundley filed a restraining order against him one day after dropping off a sketchy-ass letter to the ESPN analyst’s wife at home. You know, the letter that stated Brooke and Steve should be together, offered sordid details on their sex life and prompted Marni Phillips to frantically call 911. On August 20, Brooke sought protection from him, claiming that while at a hotel back in July, Steve Phillips “bought me a strong drink and then cornered me.” At that point, the whack job claims, the married father of four was “trying to persuade me to come to his hotel suite to spend the night.” She obliged.  Read full story here

Steve Phillips

February 8th, 2010

Former Mets GM and ESPN talking head Steve Phillips was on the Today show this morning, opening his heart about his treatment for sex addiction. No word on if he was angry about being totally overshadowed by Tiger Woods in that department, but there was a lot of remorse and apologies to his family and things of that nature.

Ex-baseball analyst Steve Phillips, whom ESPN fired last year when his extramarital affair with a network product staffer went public, may be the source of all the “Tiger Woods in rehab in Mississippi” leaks.

ESPN.com reports: Former ESPN baseball analyst and New York Mets general manager Steve Phillips said Monday that he knew he had a sex-addiction problem last August, two months before he was fired after having an affair with an ESPN production assistant.

A former Mets general manager, Phillips led the team to a 2000 World Series berth. But his six-year tenure with the Mets, from 1997-2003, was marred by another affair: The then-GM admitted to sleeping with a female team employee, Rosa Rodriguez, in 1998.

Brooke Hundley, the ESPN production assistant who reportedly had an affair with Steve Phillips, is a 2008 graduate of Ithaca College - but her resume already includes stops at HBO, ABC, NBC Sports and the 24-hour sports network.

The sorority girl joined ESPN shortly after graduation in September 2008, coming over after working for NBC during the Summer Olympics in Beijing.  Read more here

“I recognized in August, I needed help,” Phillips said. “I started calling facilities.”

“What I want to do is take ownership,” he told Matt Lauer on NBC’s Today Show. “I made some mistakes … I’m fully responsible for what I did.”

Steve Phillips’ ex-lover Brooke Hundley filed a restraining order against him one day after dropping off a sketchy-ass letter to the ESPN analyst’s wife at home. You know, the letter that stated Brooke and Steve should be together, offered sordid details on their sex life and prompted Marni Phillips to frantically call 911. On August 20, Brooke sought protection from him, claiming that while at a hotel back in July, Steve Phillips “bought me a strong drink and then cornered me.” At that point, the whack job claims, the married father of four was “trying to persuade me to come to his hotel suite to spend the night.” She obliged.  Read full story here

Phillips spoke publicly for the first time since leaving the same clinic in Hattiesburg, Miss., that golfer Tiger Woods reportedly attended. He called it a facility for people who are “broken” and “struggling to find answers.” He said his focus is “moving forward, trying to save my family.”  Read full story here

Saints Win Super Bowl

February 8th, 2010

MIAMI, Fla. – The ultimate underdogs, they ain’t. Not anymore. The Saints are Super Bowl champions now. Who Dat? Try Drew Brees, Sean Payton and a team that has reversed its embarrassing past, carrying an entire city to the top with it.

Put away those paper bags forever.

Brees and the Saints rallied to upset Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts 31-17 Sunday night in one of pro football’s most thrilling title games.

Super Bowl 2010 MVP Drew Brees

“We just believed in ourselves and we knew that we had an entire city and maybe an entire country behind us,” said Brees, the game’s MVP. “What can I say? I tried to imagine what this moment would be like for a long time, and it’s better than expected.”

But not something many expected from these descendants of the hapless Aints, who were 5-point underdogs.

“Four years ago who ever thought this would be happening when 85 percent of the city was under water from (Hurricane) Katrina?” Brees said. “Most people not knowing if New Orleans would ever come back or if the organization and the team would come back. … This is the culmination of that belief and that faith.”

The Saints (16-3) won three postseason games this winter after winning only two in the previous 42 years. They beat Arizona, Minnesota and Indianapolis (16-3) — all division winners — for their first title, scoring 107 points and allowing only 59.

Brees tied a Super Bowl record with 32 completions, the last a 2-yard slant to Jeremy Shockey for the winning points with 5:42 remaining. He was 32 for 39 for 288 yards.  Read full story here
