She’s ready to bolt Atlanta, where she lives, for New York City. “Jesse Palmer always says to me, ‘What are you waiting for?’ ” says Andrews, 31, referring to her on-air colleague. “I have no ties to Atlanta, so ideally, I’ll get there ASAP and start playing.”
Home prices in Atlanta just dropped 5% across the board.
The Love of Sports compiled a top 10 list of great Erin Andrews moments of the past couple of years. (Hey, someone had to do it.)
2. The Chicago Cubs get easily flustered in her floozy presence
“Yup. I’m just a hot chick covering a baseball game. [Blows bubble.] Nothing to see here, please move along.” Not so fast. Mike Nadel, a Chicago news service columnist (and, in the children’s game of Eye Candy Land, would be Mr. Molasses) penned the scathing report, “Blonde Bombshell can’t distract red-hot Cubs” and, well, let’s just say he takes issue with her … assets. And flirting. Or something.
1. Playboy’s Sexiest Sportscaster
Of course she is. The people have spoken. I wonder for whom these gentlemen below voted.
You’ve got to admire Andrews’ longevity. Normally America shuffles “what’s hot” out the door as quickly as we ushered he/she/it in. But Andrews has stuck around and you know what? She’s pretty good at her job, too. (Yes…and nice to look at.)
CL: I read the SportsBusiness Daily interview where you briefly mentioned a career in entertainment as opposed to sports and you’re a fan of TMZ. What would be the perfect role for you to switch to entertainment reporting?
EA: I don’t want to switch. The one part of that article that they didn’t put in there was I said I want to read TMZ and People when I want to get away from sports because I read about sports 24/7. So then it was this whole thing on the internet. “Oh my god, Erin Andrews going to Hollywood!” And it was like, “No, that’s not what I said.” I’m honestly one of the biggest tomboys there is and I love sports.
I went on a trip with my dad a couple of weeks ago and we went to a sporting event. We were in the hotel and he changed SportsCenter and put on National Geographic, and I asked him “What are you doing?” and he said “I’m just giving you a break from it all.” The most entertainment I’ve ever done was The ESPYs for ESPN and I think that’s almost a perfect amount because it’s Hollywood and athletes. I don’t get to meet the NBA and NFL guys normally. I’m not really looking to get into entertainment right now.
