| 8th February, 2010 - 4:56 pm | ESPN - Former Mets general manager and ESPN analyst Steve Phillips said Monday that he knew he had a sex addiction problem in August, two months before he was fired by the network.
"What I want to do is take ownership," he said in an interview with Matt Lauer on NBC's Today Show. "I made some mistakes ... I'm fully responsible for what I did."
Phillips spoke publicly for the first time since he left the Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services clinic, the same clinic Tiger Woods reportedly attended.
He said he realized he had a sexual addiction problem in August, while he was having an affair with ESPN production assistant Brooke Hundley.
"I couldn't stop myself from doing the things I was doing, even knowing the consequences," Phillips told Lauer on Monday. [READ] |
