Wasting my 800th post to say OMFG that's funny!

[ZBOIZ]

here it is


Smith has appeared on other ESPN shows as well, including the reality series Dream Job, as well as a frequent guest (and guest host) on Pardon the Interruption, Jim Rome is Burning and as an abusive participant on 1st and 10. He has appeared as an anchor on the Sunday morning edition of SportsCenter, but on April 17, 2009 announced on his website that he would be leaving ESPN on May 1st, 2009. The Los Angeles Times reported that ESPN commented that, "We decided to move in different directions."

I remember the old Best Damn Sports Show, Period show. He used to be on it a lot via satellite and it propelled his career 'cause he had superior debate skills. Quite frankly.

[englishmike]

It was over money. ESPN basically thought his contract demands were out of line and not viable.

[crisp]

he was a huge racist. always had blacks on his show and hardly any whites. see what i'm sayin. fuk him

[KingRevolver]

Yeah - 'cause he doesn't have producers that are more than likely White.

[Tsoprano]

I like Stephen A. Smith

[cmerunoveru]

Who is stephen A smith, lol, he is going to sign with fox like every other dead beat.

[shooterman]

Mute button. Why do people equate big mouth with entertaining?

[AMBlai01]

They didn't renew his contract because he was absolutely awful....ESPN knows what they are doing.

[Casperwaits]

The man is a loudmouth. Brought nothing to the table. His ill fated "talk show" that lasted 3 weeks was like watching fat porn. A racist and a melodramatic prick, I am happy to see him gone.

[Willie Bee]

Put me in the same group with Casper, Amby and Shooter. Good call on the MUTE button, Shooter.

[jjgold]

I think he over priced himself and ESPN knew they did not need him. He is a diamond dozen in that business.

Listen his ratings sucked, and because of it he did not have any Juice to get top quality panel guests. His guests were a sports agent nobody has every heard of, a no talent comic dying to be relevant, and some guy mentioned in SI article once.

Do you think that Scott Boras and Jerry Seinfeld wanted to do his show But Stephen A did not want them because they were white?

If he would have had better ratings he still might be at ESPN.

[robmpink]

I heard he quit to go work for the Rev. Al Sharpton.

[KingRevolver]

No, that was Don Imus.

[robmpink]

No, that was Don Imus.

No it was Al Sharpton. He hired him to be the mouthpiece at all his marches.
