Nah. Nobody is hating on him for having a vocabulary. He doesn't even have an impressive vocabulary, first of all. He just has a list of "big words" and flowery phrases that he has memorized and wears out over and over again, and they're usually used in lieu of other words that could just as adequately or more adequately express the point he's trying to make. He forces his little collection of big words and catch phrases because he think it makes him sound smart.

Instead of saying...

"I heard what Kevin Durant said in that interview and I think he can be too sensitive to criticism from the media."

He'll say...

"Based on what Kevin Durant elocuted and articulated I am of the mindset that he possesses a level of sensitivity to the shrapnel of criticism he received from those in the media."

And when it comes to social commentary outside of sports, he's a joke. I don't want him to raise a black power fist, but if he can't/won't educate himself beyond a surface level when he steps outside of sports analysis, he should stfu. And if he doesn't, he will receive a shrapnel of criticism from me.

If this aint hating then I don't know what is.. 35 responses of straight unfilter hate on another black man, I thought yall were so pro black on here? I didn't bother to read the rest of the reliies


Just to give you some background info on the OP, he is mixed, from what I understand white and Indian which explains his fair skin and soft features.

He really gets besides himself when he feels people are being ingenuine, superficial, or self serving. This is the self righteous stuff you tend to expect from black progressives.

Its ESPN fam...if you're not talking about highlights or actual sports news...they have to fill dead air with all that fan porn...its tons of empty shyt.

Half of those 30 for 30 episodes are straight hot air and reaches across chasms of logic


ESPN = The wide world of Disney sports

Disney has all their demographic channels setup.
So, we will never escape the princess model employed by them and real talk.
They are making sports like footbal and basketball into a princess model marketed thing going forward as well.

They have no attrition rate at Disney.
You have no escape from the lil princess model like back in the day.
Now, it starts at preschool Mickey mouse club to Disney animated.
Then it goes to Pixar then to marvel and then ABC programming and ESPN sports
They don't lose any of their fan share and have mastered pr for their brand and all the demographic wings.

I honestly don't know why anyone cares that much, I see countless threads and mentions about this man shytting on him for one reason or another and in my OPINION this dude doesn't come off the way yall say he does.. or I just don't care that much what a sports personality like him or barkley think about social issues.. I don't judge or critique him on any of that.. I think he is a knowledgeable person on sports and that's it... ITs NOT that serious to where I feel the need to make threads let alone comments about this man, it seems like hate/jealousy to me, he is getting paid to do what yall do in here everyday for free

i think he gets a bad rap :manny:

And I think I know quality sports analysis when I hear it and skip delivers most of the time


Steven a destroys skip.
Only reason the show is still on is because Steven a owns skip and sas had to own skip or the show would have died and ruined ESPN permeation and ability to resonate.
Especially if skip got to keep a hold over the show.
So, I welcome Steven a when skip needed to be killed't dead.
Only problem is now bron lost so much.
Skip has looked to be accurate in his long term ploys and stances.
So, SAS's ability to limit skip in perception has waned.
Yet, when skip is wrong.
I am purposefully watching live to see SAS murder death killmode skip, all day any day skip lost an argument.


So, SAS does have his place it is just once he got suckered into taking his own slot.
With the original SAS SHOW with the Ai interview and prime time slotted show.
Which was doomed to fail because of the time slot or was on was a conflict of interest like Arsenio on wgn af 10pm central.
When everyone watches the news at that slot.
Same thing happened to SAS.
When his show was moved to 6pm hour central standard time.
So, SAS rebounded but has been neutered and will go PC corporate c00n in a heart beat.
So, he does not go without work on tv during a drawing hour that is safe.
So, After that SAS illustrated the PC corporate rants and obvious change.
To the point where people call him a c00n.

Before his show was cancelled SAS, was the greatest.
With no question, he was the greatest till his show got canceled that first time.

Naw,...my dude..
I used to think that till one day,....
I saw for myself how SAS changed on some pc corporate shyt.
It is like ever since the Ai interview and his show failed.
That when he got back on in that real prime hour drawing spot again.
He said fukk that,..i ain't the cool edgy guy the brothers like Ai on the fringe can expect to have their back.
After the SAS show got cancelled.
He was definitely poppin out the poke ball.
Let someone do anything in the NFL that was black.
He was no longer defending or giving brothers the benefit of the doubt anymore or giving an incredible disenfranchised argument for people to see more than one perspective like he so brilliantly used to.
Now, he will throw your ass under the corporate white PC bus with no hesitation.
He was heinous and unwavering to quite a few brothers and never even saw their side of the story.
In the case of AP,...he never praised ap for what was the exact reason he disciplined his child.
Which supposedly happened from the child assaulting the other child and the fact we were not there to really now the brevity of what occurred.
The way SAS came at AP, for the case.
Then attacked the dude cause Minnie ap was on bullshyt in this as well.
To the point he clowned the man anytime he was in the press.
Plus, talked about how ap was not at liberty to talk about pay or anything admin wise.
All because he did not play for the legal issues about disciplining his son.
It was heinous and it was not the only player.
Any player who did anything, SAS was lowering the loud octaves of the bullhammer on any black guy.
To the point I know the old SAS is not even in existence anymore at all for the brothers in a case.
With SAS now,...you better go to the game.
Grab your overcoat and go to the bus or your car and drive home after the interview and obligations with no shower.
Or SAS smashing on you on some be proud to have a corporate job shyt.
In a draw based business which won't exist at all without the players, period.
So, SAS HAS CHANGED FOR THE WORSE.
The OLD SAS NO LONGER EXISTS LIKE THAT.

He is not Whitlock with it all the time, but he takes a shytlock stance in a minute now if a brother is caught up.
Regardless of what the circumstances is,...SAS TREATS nikkaZ NOW.
when back in the day, he was there for the brothers.

that is a well thought out non biased opinion on the man, this is what I mean I say these dudes are haters, they cant articulate their point using logic. its like one person sets the tone and everyone just piggy backs that statement no matter how wrong it is..

Dawg,...
I really used to love Steven a, but he has gone type corporate bogus.
To the point, I feel if I told him my story.
He would have told me I was dumb for trying to sue.
Regardless of what the actual facts were and what happened.
SAS, NOW.....is a corporate c00n type guy.
It hurts like hell too all cause I really used to champion that brother , STEVEN A SMITH....like no other, but the total complete change shyt with anybody and leading up to and after AP to anyone else.
I just can't turn the other cheek and not notice how much he changed to a corporate PC guy.
He is a bonafide Disney/ESPN/PC guy to the point he appeals to a Disney mentality based crowd.
When, before he appealed and gave a voice for all the possibilities of thought to a situation.

It is like you getting commercialized SAS,...which is also why he has disconnect, as of late.
To the point, I am not sure guys in the NBA really prop him like that publically anymore.

SAS, used to be on the pulse of what was happening and was a great speaker on keeping all the basis covered.
Now, he is gonna corporate PC you to death.

I think that's where I base my opinion of him from, the guy he was when he first showed up to ESPN, I don't watch espn too much outside of youtube clips from first take and thats only on days when I know they are going to talk about something I am interested in.. So all the stuff during the "NFL player gets into trouble off season" part of the year I don't watch.. I am not saying he is perfect but when its strictly sports and mostly nba, his opinion isn't too far off from what I think, like I said I don't care for his moral or social opinion :manny:

Personally I know to just tune in for when I know skip is gonna get killed't cause SAS does own skip.
Past that tho,....SAS is on some other shyt after his show did not pan out.
His show then, it was great, damn his show was great.
It was like what if roy firestone and magic Johnson made a really good sports talk show.

I miss that SAS,....
