Stephen A. Smith, an ESPN presenter, is renowned for speaking clearly about his views.
Recently he has come under attention due to his reaction to former NFL great Terrell Owens on social media.
On “The Joe Budden Podcast” Smith discussed his breakup with former First Take co-host Max Kellerman, he expressed, “was totally my fault and the reason it was my fault is because I didn’t like working with him.”
Same question, Same answer for damn-near two years now: Max & I weren’t working in the end. I wanted to win. So I didn’t want that duo. Does mean he’s isn’t smart, talented and that he’s not a good guy. I have nothing against him. I wish him well. Just needed a change. That’s all https://t.co/wDJ0pL7eXK

Terrel Owens the Hall of Fame wide receiver had different opinions and he responded to a tweet that contained an old clip from 2019 in which Owens said Max Kellerman acted “more black” than Smith.

Smith gave his response and took to platform X formerly Twitter and said, “Now… as for this dude, that’s an entirely different story,”
“You know how I feel about your sorry a** and you know why! You should thank your Heavenly Father I haven’t zeroed in on you with the trifling s*** you tried to pull. Tell folks to ask ESPN what your desperate a** tried to pull. Keep on talking. Eventually, you’ll expose yourself!”
Now Stephen A…Ask me if I’m scared?! I thank God every day or I at least try to but do what you do best. I’m not worried. You don’t have to make some bold attempt to “expose me” because I have NOTHING to hide. You’re mad because of the advice of my attorney after we filed… https://t.co/LIf2xGTT8U

Or…….maybe I’ll just dedicate the entire Stephen A. Smith Show/Podcast on YouTube this Monday to all the things you tried to do behind the scenes — to BROTHERS — over the years while claiming someone is more of a Brother than others. Let me thing about that over the next 24… https://t.co/MIROwzBdTU

Don’t stand down now!!! I’ll be sorry and pathetic, be sure to keep that same energy when you see me next time. You see I’m not intimidated by you because you have a platform and a loud mouth to claim that that you’re going to allegedly expose me about something . It seems to me… https://t.co/2hxGJq2ehV

I can’t wait to hear what he’s going to expose me about. We’ll be waiting. Anything to get the people to tune into and increase the ratings on his show but I’m here for it. Hey Stevie, when it’s all said and done and you open up your mouth with the annoying overuse of vocabulary… https://t.co/1ovrnI96id

Then Owens issued his response by saying, “Now Stephen A…Ask me if I’m scared?! I thank God every day or I at least try to but do what you do best. I’m not worried. You don’t have to make some bold attempt to “expose me” because I have NOTHING to hide,”
Owens further said, “You’re mad because of the advice of my attorney after we filed against ESPN because on air without my consent you shared our text conversation,”
“I’m not sure that constitutes as desperate but enlighten us all. So my boy, hone in on me. I’m good. I’m blessed and God got me! You’re still salty about that interview I did with you and Max a few years back and I said what I said and today I’m still #TeamMax. Got that man fired! That’s messed up. You saw me in Colorado you should’ve told me about my sorry a** then.”
