SOOOOOO...yet another tawdry , uncomfortable and honestly puzzling story about an office romance gone bad. First it was David Letterman and his ongoing affair with a co-worker..and the resulting attempted blackmail, 2 million dollar "fake" check , the public admission and apology. Letterman probably did the best he could with all of this, and the resulting damage has been fairly well mitigated. I know I still feel kinda weird when i hear of another "sex scandal" in the news and I wonder how Dave will handle it. But all in all..this one could have been a lot worse.
BUT NOW---we get Steve Phillips (now formerly) of ESPN and his ..."odd" affair with this very young and , let's be honest, uhhhhh ..not the most photogenic co-worker. The great part of this one though..is how all "Fatal Attraction" this Brooke girl has gone..letters and threats to the wife..calling forth the chilling Glenn Close mantra of all stalker mantras "I ...WON'T...BE......IGNORED!!!! " it STILL to this day makes the skin crawl...
Look...rare is the office romance that ever works out..ESPECIALLY if you are married and ya know..have something to lose..just AMP that up about 100x if you are someone famous or have money ...or both...
LET THIS BE A LESSON to us all..meanwhile..is that rabbit I smell on the stove? ummm.
