Always struck me as more of a bulldog with those facial features, personally.

This isn’t the first time that I’ve heard this argument. Either Smith has been saying it for a few years, or he picked it up from whomever said it first.

With that said, it’s nothing more than an opinion. Some are formed and supported better than others.

Yep. Stephen A Smith has been the #1 ESPN troll for about 20 years now, saying outlandish stuff that makes people send links that say "OMG you can't believe what Screamin' A just said".

ESPN is happy, their advertisers are happy, SAS is happy. We're the only ones who suffer.

If he or Skip told me I was on fire I wouldn’t believe them. (When you’ve been at 11 for years, your only remaining move is to go to 12. He’s at 26.)

SAS is okay. Disagree wholeheartedly with this take of course.

But Kellerman is actually quite worse.

I can't wait for ESPN to follow up with what Lebron tweeted about Goat-gate 2021.

That’s ridiculous.
He’s a clown just like everyone else who makes stupid triggering statements on social media. The clicks are far more important than being accurate.

Where is lie in what Stephen Smith said. How can baseball player in the era Babe Ruth played in be consider the GOAT. If you didn't play against black baseball players that had the same talent and some cases superior talent he played against. You can't omit a certain segment of the population in competition and unfair practices and then in same breath say your the best. I know a lot people that make the same agrument that Stephen A Smith makes about old white players that didn't compete against black and other minorities in team sports. I actually find anyone that disagree with this LOGICAL FAIR assessment in a bigger indicment on your mindset.
