She's a Packers fan!
The ESPN sideline reporter and Internet search favorite tells The Chicago Tribune that she got into the biz because of her dad, Steve, who's an investigative reporter in Tampa. And, Pops is a devotee of the Green and Gold. "He's a huge sports fan from New England but was never into the Patriots because they weren't very good. He was a Bart Starr fan, so we grew up Brett Favre fans. I dropped the ball as a daughter. I'm horrible. I promised my dad I would get him on the field at Lambeau to go see Brett play, and I couldn't get it done this year. I told him: If the Packers beat the Giants, we're going to the Super Bowl. Well, that didn't happen. So I said: "It's fine, Daddy, he's coming back.''
Oops. Erin Andrews is good at what she does, but she IS fallible.
