Stephen A. Smith Threatens Kevin Durant...How u feel about that

[S2J]

The utrter COLDNESS of his statements put a chill in my body nh Got me damn near emotional both angry and sad

THAT is the type people you're dealing with, the type of folk with God complexes who a) are 40+ years old yet think they KNOW these 20 something year old players, and b) think they are on par and JUST AS IMPORTANT as the athletes they cover

Wait, hold the fuck on. Is this dude serious? As many unnecessary shots as he takes a Black athletes and he's really trying to criticize ESPN in that way. Fat boy really needs to lay off the hamburgers. Them transfats are affecting his brain.

Can't stand Whitlock but I don't think he's saying there's an issue w/ "attacking" black athletes. I believe his point is ESPN allows him and all their other employees to attack the athletes on a daily basis but the second they speak against an owner it becomes an issue.

So basically he's calling hypocrisy on not being able to attack white owners, not defending black athletes. So basically he's still a coon.

Here are Wilbons comments, TWICE, after Sean Taylor was first reported shot, then when he died

Wilbon, in an online chat on Nov. 26, 2007, while Taylor lay in critical condition:

Sean Taylor isn't the only guy I know who fits his general profile. I've known guys like Taylor all my life, grew up with some. They still have shades of gray and shouldn't be painted in black and white...I know how I feel about Taylor, and this latest news isn't surprising in the least, not to me. Whether this incident is or isn't random, Taylor grew up in a violent world, embraced it, claimed it, loved to run in it and refused to divorce himself from it.

The ones who do have a hard time leaving the "streets" struggle because it's leaving home.

[...]

Some, increasingly, romanticize it, or are addicted to it, or find it irresistible. ... Some take awhile to divorce themselves from it ... think Allen Iverson, who after years of living dangerously, seems pretty far removed from that life now. Everybody's circumstance is different. But it always seemed to me that Sean Taylor loves his life and the way he's living and has no instinct to change...

Wilbon, in an online chat on Nov. 26, 2007, while Taylor lay in critical condition:

Again, I'm not the least bit surprised about the Taylor episode...why would I be considering his history, even since he joined the Redskins?

What he say that was incorrect?

At most, He was insenstive to the dead.

he insinuated Taylor is to blame for his own death given his past behavior, embracing violence, etc.

where if I'm not mistaken, the people who set up the robbery was the same people he invited into his house to fix or install something

they knew he was rich, tried to rob him one night, he fought back to protect his girl and infant daughter, and they killed him

dude died protecting his family. both wilbon and cowherd insinuated he had it coming based on his criminal history

how fucked up is that?

Im an adult. Im gonna assume you're one as well. So Im not explaining that to you. I dont have time for the 'well if you think about...' logic that only exists, or at least is exacerbated, by being online

It makes nothing REAL. No matter the story, no matter how inflammatory, there is always a 'well if you think about it...'

Fuck that. Play dumb or robotic if u want to...

I was off my square. You knocked me back on it. I take the L on this one.

Looking at it, looks like Wilbon and Cowherd were waiting for someone to die to write their "romanticizing the hood" (which some people do). It wasnt the time and place to do it.

Where Hugh Douglas at?

Got fired. He was going to put paws on Michael Smith

Is that really what happened? Lol

Yeah, Hugh was being insecure about himself, he didn't really like working on a analytical show were the anchors/reporters were the show, and not him, which made him fell left out. Then when Jemele officially joined the show, he hated that even more. He got drunk at the award show and resented them for being smarter then himself.

 

[twizza 77]

SAS is a clown, I like how he thinks his opinions hold more weight because he has a journalism degree and is too good debating the common fan. In Broadcasting tv/radio, you don't need a degree to get in the field. Especially, when your job mostly is giving opinions.

SAS thinks he at the same level of the athletes and celebrities he supposed to cover.

And then the bitch ass nigga was such a fucking coward he didn't even show his fatass face during Taylor's football life docu ....see that's the shit that gets me tho ...these little dirtbags be on that high power shit with that pen but once anybody presses their weak asses they go quite ass a church mouse ...same thing happened to Skip Bayless when Jalen Rose pressed him about being a fraud who made up lies on his history ...these nigga have 0 accountability whe it comes to their own indiscretions but they make a career a living off of chopping others up ....it's gross ...that's why I love when niggas like Marahawn shit all over them divas because that's really what sports reporters are ...make no mistake these niggas are the biggest ego centric pathetic idiotic charterers in the whole realm of sporting entertainment

If there is a journalist Hall of Fame, I don't give a damn about it just like everybody don't give a damn about the WNBA.

exactly bruh.. i was listening to this dude rant and im like "damn this nigga really do think hes as big a star as these athletes are" and the simple fact that nobody on the FT staff (im talking producers, not skip old ass) didnt cut him off and tell him to chill made it even crazier

all KD said was he doesnt talk to SAS nor does his fam, so hes lying and this nigga went on tangent like he Stephen A Corleone. What u gon do, put a hit on KD? send sum goons to Oklahoma? This nigga said u dont want to see ME in an NBA arena. This dude don let FT's success gass him the fuck up. I just hope its one of those situations when given some time, he gon look back at this and realize how much of an ass he made himself look like.. which is a shame cuz this guy damn near 50

 

[JusDre313]

Stephen A overcompensated and made a fool of himself because his credibility was questioned that segment was dumb af.Shoulda said something simple like my track record speaks for itself and kept it moving.

This reminded me years ago when jalen rose questioned skips basketball career and it turned into a coppin pleas show and intervention for 2 hours. lol

my nigga that shit lasted the ENTIRE WEEK... it took a full working week b4 Skip could pick up his soul off the floor. That one punch line from Jalen, altered the timeline for the entire week.. was so fucking pathetic. Then i dont think Jalen was back on FT for like 2 years

The utrter COLDNESS of his statements put a chill in my body nh Got me damn near emotional both angry and sad

THAT is the type people you're dealing with, the type of folk with God complexes who a) are 40+ years old yet think they KNOW these 20 something year old players, and b) think they are on par and JUST AS IMPORTANT as the athletes they cover

I am not to say your emotional reaction is wrong but that is why ESPN first and drama queen is on the air. They want to get emotional reactions out of people which drives up ratings. This shit is scripted. SAS was a legitimate journalist and to my knowledge so was Skip before this show. But this show copied the fox news sceme of fuckery and trolling to get people pissed. Outlandish niggas actually believe this shit is real and take sides and people who cant stand it somehow end up clicking on the links and or watching just to yell at the screen.

If people stopped letting scare tactics and trollery be watched and consumed in the media the media would either go out of business or be forced to report facts and be fair.
