There’s no debate. Skip is really the godfather of sports debate🐐. Hating Skip has become a trend and sad to see Stephen A hop on just to appease Shannon

[@Hectrrod]

I allways get the sence that SAS wants to be recognized as the reason that First Take became great. Those Tebow debates made that show big and popular and SAS wants to downgrade that. Is basic logic here. Looking back now is easy to write Tebow out but in 2011 Tebow was a HUGE name in media.

Exactly! People like that just hate on the man for doing what they couldn’t. I love how it’s funny people comment how much they hate him but make sure to watch and comment on every clip. I’m sure Skip could careless about any of their comments but appreciates their support!

Truly Steven A and yourself are the OG partnership and the chemistry is magic. I won’t lie, I loved Shay Shay and Skip, that was true magic for 6 years. That being said, I’d watch the tag team and it’s going to presented through internet and they own it and produce it. Bank!!

Crazy how you and Stephen A say yall love each other but i know beef when i see it. Yall lowkey been beefing since he tried to low blow you last year saying he made first take and is the goat of debates trying to discredit you.

[@DualityUnlimited]

Many think that’s when it stated it because they resolved it according to both of them. Something else happened behind the scenes, I think it Stephen A reaching out to Shannon. Skip didn’t like that. Because Stephen A reached out didn’t the the Demar Hamlin incident and he said Skip never called him back. It seems like they are battling via Podcasts now. They essentially stole each others wish list of talent. They have different people in their ears now. I hope they talk and resolve it as Brothers.

He's even called Tom more clutch than Jordan, he must've forgot that nonsense he said about Tebow at the time. But wait, are you saying you would agree with that, you're taking Tebow over Brady too?? Are you serious?

@@KingGregory27It's not dumb though lol, it's the truth. Kobe playing in an era when guys like Artest, Bowen, Bell, Allen etc., were able to grab, hold and slide under your feet is totally different than playing in space.
