Every year, we come across people that if we hadn't crossed these people, we would have more brain cells than we have now because this certain person wouldn't have killed them. Since this is the first year of the Crishad Experience blog, I've decided to do something new. This year, I've decided to try and award the biggest idiot of the year. For our first candidate, we honor a man that has excelled in the art of being a true idiot. So without further ado, our first nominee for the 2009 idiot of the year award is...Steve Phillips!
Steve Phillips is from Wilton, Connecticut and has been working for the Eastern Sports Propaganda Network since 2005. Phillips was hired to replace Harold Reynolds, who actually gave a crap about the small market teams in baseball. Phillips helped turn ESPN into what it is today: A news network that drools over New York, Boston, and Los Angeles and will crap on any other city. Phillips had an extensive background as a craptacular minor league baseball player and an even worse general manager for the New York Mets.
However, none of these are reasons for his nomination for the 2009 Idiot of the Year Award. You see, Mr. Phillips has a couple of judgement issues. The most recent of these judgement issues is an affair with 22 year old production assistant Brooke Hundley. (Pictured above) You may think that Phillips is an idiot because of the fact that if you do ever decide to cheat on your wife, you should at least pick someone ATTRACTIVE!!! As you can see, this is not the case. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Phillips came down with a case of the Swine Flu.
The reason for Phillips nomination is for constantly thinking with his male instincts rather than his head. In 1998, Phillips was accused of sexual harassment of a female employee. Phillips took a brief leave of absence to settle this deal out of court, but the fact of the matter is that he got cheating on his wife, Mami, once. Why do this again? Especially with that?
Heck, the bigger idiot in this situation might be Ms. Hundley. What does that slimeball say to her that would make her want to sleep with him? Did he mention how he discovered David Wright? Did he mention how he ran the Mets into the ground? Or did he just talk her into submission by telling her in March that the Mets would win the 2009 World Series? Actually, thanks to some letters we now know.
Hundley was concerned that if she slept with Phillips, she would become pregnant. How did this silver fox get his way? He assured her that she wouldn't become pregnant because he previously had a vasectomy. I'm not a girl, and I'm not that great in terms of the psychology to get a woman to sleep with you, but seriously, I'm pretty sure that's a red flag!!!
But the nod here goes to Phillips. Not only did he cheat on his wife for the second time, but he also threw a very promising career at ESPN away. Sure, he was an idiot, but let's look at what he threw away. He was on his way to becoming a somewhat noticeable figure at ESPN. He was on their flagship baseball show, "Baseball Tonight" a majority of nights. He also was being groomed to become the color commentator for Sunday Night Baseball because Joe Morgan isn't getting younger. Yup, Steve Phillips pretty much threw away his chance to become the face of baseball on ESPN.
In closing, ESPN has fired Mr. Phillips, and his wife (who I just saw a picture of...I think she could probably whoop his ass, so it makes it even dumber for him to cheat on her) has filed for divorce. Mr. Phillips just threw everything down the drain due to stupidity, so he throws his hat in the ring for idiot of the year.
