So, I take it you have no familiarity with Screamin Stephen.

not really. I mean...I'm aware of who he is and I've seen him before. But I hardly ever watch ESPN unless it's for a game.

Harder to find a dumber person in all of sports journalism, even when he's not coke raging.

people actually listen to stephen a for his takes? his delivery is usually pretty entertaining for a few minutes then just gets monotonous.

but man, i remember a while ago, jaworski went on first take to talk about the QB's in the 2014 draft (bortles, bridgewater, carr, garoppolo, manziel, etc) and he was explaining how he looks at attributes like accuracy, arm strength, decision making, etc, and that he had manziel ranked low. stephen a was like "im hearing these categories. arm strength, accuracy... and i dont understand how manziel isn't #1 in each of those categories"

not that jaworski is some guru (he thought kaepernick had GOAT potential), but it was just funny hearing stephen a describe manziel as somebody with elite accuracy and decision making

somewhat off-topic but with the direction ESPN is going, I can see Mike Tomlin moving into one of these horse First Take type shows playing the "loud black man" role. ...he's got the perfect BMOC/Sambo personality that Stephen A, Magic Johnson, Shannon Sharpe, etc utilize effectively

to be fair, the 2014 QB class was complete garbage all the way across the board... yes that includes blue 80, hut hut, OWW DONALD PENN MY LEG IS BROKE.

I can definitely see this. Mike Tomlin is a hoodrat n!gger who everyone in the media refers to as a class act because he’s a black coach for the Steelers.
