Stephen A. Smith: Pat McAfee doesn’t have to be as ‘polished’ at ESPN because he’s white

Pat McAfee has soaked up more than his fair share of attention since joining ESPN less than six months ago, but his teammate at the worldwide leader, Stephen A Smith, takes no issue with McAfee’s no-holds-barred approach.
Speaking in an interview on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast released Tuesday, Smith explained why he respects McAfee and how their public personas have to differ because of who they are.
quote:
“I love Pat McAfee, love him to death. I love his swag; I love the fact that he’s an honest brother. He don’t give a s*** … That’s my kind of dude,” Smith said. “That works for me. Now, is he as polished politically as me? Nope, because he has no desire to be number one. And number two, if we’re being honest, he’s white, and I’m Black; he doesn’t have to be. I had to be. So I get all that, and I’m not knocking him for it.”

I’m guessing Stephen A doesn’t realize this guy works for ESPN?

I think you're glossing over that too.
And historically yeah, he's not wrong. But this ain't the 60s or 70s. And Stephen a isn't as fricking polished as he thinks he is either.

Stephen A has to be more polished because he came in as a media member.
McAfee isn't held to any standard lower than any other former athlete that goes on ESPN.

You're doing exactly what he wants by sharing this.

stfu Stephen A. Smith, that whole narrative goes out the door with ESPN employing that mouth breather Kendrick Perkins And Stephen A. is far from polished
make this clown world shite stopPosted on 2/20/24 at 4:50 pm to SPEEDY
Who is still watching ESPN in 2024???

Yeah what is wrong with what he said?
Even Pat would tell you that. You guys cry just as much as liberal women.

They hired Pat to do his show, not be a polished journalist.
SMS is bitter he doesnt have a bogeyman to go after. Snow flake race going to snow flake.

I don’t care for SAS’s on air person or how he acts in most interviews, but knows how to play the media game. Who knows how he actually feels because he is almost always in character when a camera is around

Wilbon is five times as polished as Screamin’ A. Is it possible to stop making everything about race? It’s truly exhausting.

Does Stephen think he’s polished?
Posted on 2/20/24 at 5:23 pm to SPEEDY
SAS is an idiot who has made a living off of being obnoxious and loud. If he wasn't black he would have been fired long ago.

I bet McAfee wouldn’t be on there anymore if he called someone a jigaboo or said someone was carrying a team like Jesus carried the cross. Look no further than your own race for a co-worker that lacks “polish” Screamin’. Oh yeah, the polished guys nickname is Screamin’.
The irony is certainly screaming at me.

Stephen A recently said the following about Jason Whitlock
quote:
Pointing out how you were betrayed by this particular writer so you know how I must feel that you betrayed me? Did you tell the folks that? You bitch. Did you tell them? You fat piece of shite.”
The polish is just oozing out of him
