Stephen A Smith Has Syracuse Football And Me Ready To Run Through A Brick Wall. Wait Who?

Is this photoshopped?  Can you photoshop live action videos?  I mean are my eyes deceiving me or is this really Stephen A Smith?  The Stephen A of “First Take scream in your face using words from a Thesaurus that are no fewer than 6 syllables” fame?  The blowhard take machine?

Because being completely objective and reasonable with absolutely no prejudice – that speech was awesome!

“That’s what grinding is all about. It’s about never being satisfied, understanding that if you’re standing still or going backwards, you ain’t living. That’s what winners are made of. And the beauty about you is you got your whole life ahead of you. The stuff I’m saying to you right now is applicable to any walk of life that you walk into. I don’t play football, I would never dream of playing football, I don’t want anyone hitting me. But I take that mentality with me everywhere I go.”

“Monopoly on greatness.”  Awesome new tag line that’s way better than “Monopoly on 4-8 seasons.”

PS,

Second best comments Stephen A. has ever made.  Nothing will ever top:

“Always, always (a term that refers to the buttocks),” Smith, the longtime co-host of ESPN’s First Take, responded. “…I know I’m associated with Walt Disney, but everybody knows I’m a bottom feeder.”
