Stephen A Smith is always awake and on the ball and the veteran broadcaster was not about to be pranked on his own show.
A caller, going by the name Danny asked, "When you think about the GOAT (greatest of all time) of sports, you think about [Michael Jordan] with six [rings], [Tom] Brady with seven rings. But where do you rank a guy like Lightning McQueen with seven Piston Cups," the caller from Wisconsin asked Smith.
Smith was on high alert.
"I would tell you he wouldn’t be the GOAT. How are you going to be the GOAT — because you’re talking about the movie Cars, right?" Smith replied.
"When you talk about Strip Weathers and Lightning McQueen, they’re both tied with seven Piston Cups. Strip Weathers — you forgot about him? How can you be the GOAT when you’ve got somebody that’s tied with you? You’ve got somebody that’s tied with you. That ain’t gonna work. Sorry, I know you tried to catch me with that. You didn’t think I knew that, you didn’t think I knew about Cars, did you? You slept on a brother."
You will have to get up earlier in the morning to pull the wool over Smith"s eyes.
The host ended with, "Strip Weathers has seven Piston Cups. I am not about to sit here and argue with a grown a** man about about the movie Cars."
