Pat McAfee will be joining ESPN this fall. His new co-worker, Stephen A. Smith, had this reaction to him joining the network AND making more money than him...
quote:

"I don’t give a damn," Smith said, via Sports Illustrated's Jimmy Traina. "He negotiated his deal a few weeks ago. I negotiated my deal a few years ago. ... The situation is not the same."

"Pat McAfee deserves it," he continued. "You looking for some haterade here, wrong place."

Plenty of reasons. Many of his takes are stupid. That’s why.

He’s a bonafide idiot and racist that’s why

I usually dislike anything Stephen A says, but I actually like this take.

When’s he’s not on espn he’s actually enjoyable to listen to. He’s pretty smart and fair minded and totally calm. He even admits what he does on espn is an act for clicks and ratings.

It resets the market. Come negotiation time, what do you think he'll base his new target off of? I bet he's happy he got as much as he did

At least I don't change the channel when I see or hear Pat McAfee. SAS is the worst.

Nahh. McAfee pushing the salary range higher is great for Smith and he knows it. Disney will have to come off the hip big time for his next contract or face the wrath of the woke gang.

Can’t stand Steven A, but kudos on the response here. For someone who makes a living off drama and controversy, this was a surprisingly refreshing type of response.
