Where is Stuart Scott? he's a one seed. already advanced to the second round i believe. there's a bracket there, but it's a pdf, so i understand anyone not looking at it. |

screamin a. smith almost gave me a concussion in a basketball game, but he's a cool guy when he doesn't have a microphone attached to him. |

I can't believe he's getting his own show. He's an idiot and he's so arrogant it's ridiculous. What does ESPN see in morons like him and Stuart Scott?

Steven A Smith didn't even GET annoying. He was annoying from day one. I remember when I first saw him on a pre-game show or something...I immediately said "ugh, this guy is awful." |

You guys are lucky, in Philly we've had to deal with him for 5-6 years before he was ever on ESPN. My friend used to email him all the time to bust his balls because at one point 75% of his articles went down a racial path. They would fight over email for years and once Smith said to meet him at a Sixers game to fight. Screamin A has since cut most of the racial stuff, and he actually writes pretty decent stuff in the Philadelphia Inquirer. I used to dispise the guy but now it depends on how he acts and my mood when he is on. I really just cant stand his condescending tone and the ego. I like the fact that he knows his shit and isn't afraid to make a harsh comment about a player or a team. |

Stephen A. Smith can get annoying with all the yelling, but he seems to be have better inside info than some of the other guys over at ESPN...... |

Have you ever heard Scott Van Pelt's Steven A. Smith impression? That's funny. "The NY Knicks are terrible. Scott Layden is terrible. HOWEVER!!!" |

I like the fact that he knows his shit and isn't afraid to make a harsh comment about a player or a team. His stuff is still along racial lines, just not as obvious. If you notice, there is one theme that always seems to show itself. Whenever he is talking about a white athlete, the guy is a no talent over rated bumb, but if its a black athlete, no matter WHO, they are the greatest thing ever. He actually had the nerve to say that Lance Armstrong's accomplishment wasnt impressive, and to give him a bike and he could ride it around. Ever time that guy opens his mouth, i want to yell bad words at the tv |

I like the fact that he knows his shit and isn't afraid to make a harsh comment about a player or a team. he still does it (the racial stuff), just not as blatantly obvious as before. but i still read his column. and i agree about the way he will call out a team or a player. wish more reporters would do that rather than stroke athletes cocks the way they do. see: stuart scott. |

Berman needs to retire the "Daylight come and ya gotta Delhomme". That is without a doubt the worst thing I have to hear week after week on ESPN. I cannot stress how bad it is, I literally cringe when I hear it. I also thought it was quite annoying that the Top 10 Plays was a montage of about 35 highlights. Remember when it was Plays-Of-TheWeek-hooorn and it was 10 actually great plays regardless of individual or team performance? Yeah, I loved that too. While we're at it, the "Ultimate Highlight" and the "......and twins" song need to stop. Why DO I even bother to watch this garbage? The Sunday morning sportscenter is the only bearable highlight show on ESPN anymore. |

Absolutely. What a waste of energy and resources of their staff to put that shit together, and of four minutes of the show to air it. |
