The man convicted of videotaping her through a hotel peephole was sentenced to two years in prison, ESPN reporter Erin Andrews said Tuesday, but in a way, she was sentenced to a lifetime of looking over her shoulder.

• There may be rumors of a romance, but Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Erin Andrews weren't acting like a couple during their night out at new West Hollywood lounge, Industry. In fact, the Dancing with the Stars pro was flirting with female clubgoers and even buying shots for any girl that was around, an onlooker tells us. Andrews was ready to party too, and she took some shots at the bar with Maks. She also hung out with Cheryl Burke and the two made a few laps around the club.

Two weeks ago, the Chicago Tribune reminded Cris Collinsworth what NFL fans will be thinking for the next five months:
She covered her first NFL game in 1976, when the language on media credentials included the sentence NO WOMEN OR CHILDREN IN THE PRESS BOX. Four years later, while working the Cotton Bowl between Nebraska and Houston for The Boston Globe, she was stared down by Cougars coach Bill Yeoman in the victorious post-game locker room.

1. Scott Van Pelt, ESPN: Two years ago, Deadspin.com ran an item that featured Van Pelt, in full Jon Favreau mode from Swingers, leaving a message on an answering machine for a woman he had met at a bar. Back then, I wrote the item was hilarious, incredibly unfair or both, depending upon where you stood on the issue of public figures and privacy.
