THIS is legit what it comes down to...SAS is making valid points based off #s that he can technically hide behind..... I'll give him that.....but you are spot on....but he will NEVER admit that....he NEVER thought that a white man with a Columbia University education would gain OUR respect like THAT....but he should have bc this man rapped and does a heckuva job with Boxing....sounds like he knows a bit about the culture 😬🤷🏾♂️😆
If Max was that guy he’d be top dog or in the running. Since the split Kellerman, has gone the way of Dame Dash and that’s into obscurity. However, when Smith left Skip, Steven S. rose to the top. With that being sad Max is no threat to Steven or anyone else.

@@shynebayarea510 it is for some, but I want to be informed and hear good discussion when it comes to sports. SAS is entertaining but says the dumbest things so I can’t even watch the guy.
@@Cujobob that's why SAS the goat..he about entertaining..he has over 10 regular experts on his show daliey , that caters to what you like. MAX had his own morning show on espn after first take & nobody watched it. Look at his views? Anybody can read stats and numbers like max does. It's boring for TV. I'll read that myself lol
What's to cover? Whites destroyed a country of color, nothing new there. 1 million civilians killed. People like you, no threat, just go to work & do what you told. Go in to debt with Credit cards
that day T.O said that i said to myself he not coming back and then max rubbed it in SAS face by saying after T.O said that i've been going to cookouts all over the place you should've seen SAS face
They haven’t been #1 in years. The reason the show sucks is Stephen A. And Stephen really thinks he was an Athlete 😂, he played like 3 mins a game in college.
Show was way better with Max. Stephen A's ego is just too big to have someone as good as Max on the show. Shame Max had to leave. I've been a daily First Take watcher for years, and always enjoyed Max's perspective. Didn't care he wasn't an athlete. He articulated himself well and generally made good points and was a good debater.
The episode where Terrell Owens told Stephen A. " Max seems like he's blacker than you" set off an insecurity in Stephen A that suggested Max was out shining him as well as took better stances on black issues than him. His ego couldn't take that
Stephen A Smith on Max being fired. Let me take full responsibility, “Because of my huge Ego plus being a better host, a superior human being…. Remember, that I’m great and I am better than you Max, in all things…. therefore we have to let you go”. Sincerely, The Humble Stephen A Smith.
“We were oceans apart, I was doing the show almost by myself” what an egotistical gasbag. The people preferred Max all day long. You got jealous, saw your role slipping as the main character and fired him. Simple.
Steven A purposefully had the producers chuck grenades at Max and he still made it entertainment. "I'll take iguadala"😂 Steven A became super insecure cus Max had natural street cred.
Max was far better on social and racial issues. He was intelligent and brought something completely different. Stephen A. was intimidated and insecure because he was being outshined. Stephen A says it himself, "I wanted to win". Exactly, Stephen A. wanted to win, when Max was winning arguments and debates and making better points it played on him big time.
The real truth is that Stephen A. was tired of losing debates to Max. Max was knowledgeable, prepared, and would often make Stephen A.’s viewpoints look ridiculous. When your entire career is based upon winning arguments simply by being the loudest ignorant person in the room, it becomes difficult to continue that charade when someone routinely confronts you with facts.
I never heard or read one comment that said people were wondering why Max was on the showwhen he wasn't an athlete or journalist. Stephen A is full of it with that.
@@KKOPPONGyeah they soo hard sucking the white mans dick...why did they not follow max on his new show before it tanked??..they just like to hate on a brotha they want the white man amd snow bunnies.
Nah I disagree with SAS on this one. Max was ON POINT on a lot of topics. Max was definitely more than capable of holding his own on literally every single topic y’all talked about
To be honest, since Max left, I barely find myself watching First Take. It's even fallen out of my youtube algorithm because I don't see videos popping up for me anymore
exactly lol and you could tell there was a message to Max at a point to 'dumb it down' and come up with more outrageous takes. Id much rather listen to some common sense debates instead of a screaming match every morning lol
@greenlion2890I don’t agree max won all debates but I don’t see the arrogance in max. Stephen A persona is arrogance and I’m ok with that but to call max arrogant is just biased
Max was more insightful and made more sense on most topics and what really irked Stephen A. was the comments people made when Max gave a historical any factual argument on black issues. It was supposed to be a one sided debate show but Max wouldn't stay in his place and he outshined Stephen A.
So let me get this right..... SAS thinks that the fact that he didnt get a contract renewal at one point justifies purposefully getting someone fired? Simply because SAS felt threatened by the intelligence of his co-host. What a spoiled little baby.
TO responds to Stephen A about “Max seems blacker than you” ruclips.net/video/Sic2EUK5dKc/видео.htmlsi=GJLmU1ORBj2ydm4w
He didn't like that Max was better on Black social issues than he was
that's what it was
That’s the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard a WHITE MAN will never be more knowledgeable about Blk issues than a Blk man!!
THIS is legit what it comes down to...SAS is making valid points based off #s that he can technically hide behind.....

wow
@@rodsutton5458in this instant he was sas be just tapping
the truth is, people (specifically black folks) preferred Max, and that made SAS jealous
That's exactly it in a nutshell.
Including that dude who said Max was blacker than Stephen. That must've hit a nerve. 😂
SAS is a racist hater
He hated the fact that Max out debated him and out “blacked” him.
Stephen A was intimidated by Maxs intelligence and the love the hood gave to Max. TO called it.
Wiley said the SAME THING, dude have a degree FROM COLUMBUS in history per say. The gift to gab and hip hop knowledge plus boxing
Who gives a fuck what the hood loves lol. That shit don't equal numbers
#@@kingtez01 but it DID equal #s. they were the #1 show.
If Max was that guy he’d be top dog or in the running. Since the split Kellerman, has gone the way of Dame Dash and that’s into obscurity. However, when Smith left Skip, Steven S. rose to the top. With that being sad Max is no threat to Steven or anyone else.
@@kingtez01Technically it does..why do you think when business target people they target the "hood" because they know the hood will be loyal to spending there Money..
Max was way smarter than him and made him look stupid on his own show. Everyone knows the reason 😂
Stephen A was jealous. Max did a damn good job when he was on FT
I'm black and I preferred Max
What does being black have to do with it
Max was too smart for him
Cool
Me to
You ain’t black
I love Stephen A but Max was one of the most smart and likeable good guys he’s had on the show
Right i had no problem with max had he still been der
You need to read more lol
True but he was boring and tv about entertaining
@@shynebayarea510 it is for some, but I want to be informed and hear good discussion when it comes to sports. SAS is entertaining but says the dumbest things so I can’t even watch the guy.

Max had way better arguments, Stephen A was just insecure simple. Stop hating.
I want Iguodala!
Max would continually outclass Stephen A... And his ego couldn't handle that. I would rather watch Max every day.
He's scared of Max's intelligence is all
Max Kellerman was more honest on racial issues. Stephen A is too scared and feels like he has to be a good boy to get paid
The show was not stale. People liked max
He just said he didnt like him. He made that very clear.
Max was too real for him
He fired him because the viewers liked him better
Max was smarter. SAS was just louder and he knew that, so…
The show is stale now
Facts shit is assss
💯
Maybe
Nah it is ass Maxx and Bubba dub would be a good match
Ong I still watch undisputed more than first take
I honestly never came across another brother that didn’t like Max… he was a real one
Stephen A bragging about being a journalist. He ain't cover the white house or war in Iraq. He covered the damn 76ers.
😂😂 this man going back in the history of that mans closet
What's to cover? Whites destroyed a country of color, nothing new there. 1 million civilians killed. People like you, no threat, just go to work & do what you told. Go in to debt with Credit cards
Stephen A pretending like the majority of viewers listened to him over Max because he was…a journalist? Bro, no one GAF about “journalists” 😂
Stephen a says max wasn’t an athlete, as if he was a baller himself. This dude road bench all his life.
I liked Max better, then Stephen A to be honest
SAS couldn’t give a single good reason why max should have been fired
I liked Max better. Seemed more relatable and I'm a black man
SAS shitting on a dude that was clearly better than him, Max argued with logic where as SAS talked absolute crap 100% of the time
He felt threatened???
Unfortunately, being logical doesn’t get views. Being loud and controversial does.
@dylanhenry1861 they still had the number one spot when Max was there, so they weren't losing viewership
I think Steven A didn't like losing arguments to Max.
Max is a class act and ran rings around Stephen A. Pure envy.
Couldn't possibly have anything to do with the fact that it's obvious within minutes that Max is smarter than him.
Max Kellerman spoke eloquently and backed up his arguments with facts. Stephen A. Smith yelled and ranted.
Max was too philosophical for him..
To be fair, SAS thinks way too highly of himself if he thinks people listen to him because he was an “athlete” or a “journalist”
Stephen A just mad because most of us were watching first take because of Max and not him anymore
Max was dope asf
Nah, Max ate you up daily. That’s why.
Same reason he left Skip
Hood was rocking with max more than SAS and he got jealous
I really liked max. First take hasn’t been the same. Switched to undisputed after him leaving.
Funny that if roles were reversed Max would be labeled a racist lol
Translation. I was tired of Max beating me like a drum.
Max was very good at his Job, Steven A was mad cuz he got clowned by Max.
Max beat SAS in many debates, and when Mr Blackness SAS was called whiter than Max scratched his ego real hard
that day T.O said that i said to myself he not coming back and then max rubbed it in SAS face by saying after T.O said that i've been going to cookouts all over the place you should've seen SAS face
Stephen A is still mad that T.O called Max Kellerman more black than him
MY WORD THATS WHAT I BELIEVE TOO!!
Yup. Max was fired shortly after lol.
They haven’t been #1 in years. The reason the show sucks is Stephen A. And Stephen really thinks he was an Athlete 😂, he played like 3 mins a game in college.
Smith hated working with Max because Max would routinely SMOKE HIM in debates.
This is definitely not true
Your just saying that cuz you don’t like Stephen
Show was way better with Max. Stephen A's ego is just too big to have someone as good as Max on the show. Shame Max had to leave. I've been a daily First Take watcher for years, and always enjoyed Max's perspective. Didn't care he wasn't an athlete.

Max was gone at the moment TO called him blacker than Steven A
Stephen A was just mad that max was blacker than him 😂
Max actually knows sports, thats why he gone
The episode where Terrell Owens told Stephen A. " Max seems like he's blacker than you" set off an insecurity in Stephen A that suggested Max was out shining him as well as took better stances on black issues than him. His ego couldn't take that
wow he told you that 🤔
I appreciate him honesty.
Stephen A Smith on Max being fired.
Let me take full responsibility, “Because of my huge Ego plus being a better host, a superior human being…. Remember, that I’m great and I am better than you Max, in all things…. therefore we have to let you go”.
Sincerely, The Humble Stephen A Smith.
Max, Max was my dude. Liked his commentary better than Stephen As.
“We were oceans apart, I was doing the show almost by myself” what an egotistical gasbag. The people preferred Max all day long. You got jealous, saw your role slipping as the main character and fired him. Simple.
Because Max won everyday. I'm team Max all day

"I'll take iguadala"😂

Stephan a was just mad cause to called max blacker than him!
Stephen A did Max dirty. He is pos. We all preferred Max over him.
The amount of times Stephen a disrespected max on air and belittled him as a man is ridiculous.
The real truth is that Stephen A. was tired of losing debates to Max. Max was knowledgeable, prepared, and would often make Stephen A.’s viewpoints look ridiculous.

Couldn't of said it any better. This should be posted on a magazine cover or something
Stephen a needs a slice of humble pie he actin like he the Michael Jordan of sports journalism
Max hasnt said one word on sas. This is a scum bag move by SAS
Your not an athlete either Stephen
You fired Max because he’s smart and white. Period
Actually no
Actually no
So about time somebody fired one of y’all ass because of your skin color 😂
SAS brings race into everything. Dude is a clown sometimes 🙄🤦🏽♂️
No he fired him due to the ratings. he was fine with Skip Bayless because of the ratings
Looking back Max is what made the show exciting
Stop it
I never heard or read one comment that said people were wondering why Max was on the showwhen he wasn't an athlete or journalist. Stephen A is full of it with that.
Stephen just sounds like he was just jealous of Max because Max makes a lot of sense.
not when Max said Kawhi is a better clutch player than Kobe was
@@vincentluong1 the stats don't lie

Stephen A Smith not being honest . He was intimidated by Max and got rid of him. Max was good for the show.
That’s exactly why he did it.
Cap 🧢 most people liked Max more than SAS… he kept it realer
Max was better, and better takes. Just like Shannon was better than Skip.
We liked Max better and you got jealous. End of story
We did? I thought Max was super annoying. Did not know how to read the room & did not know when to stfu.
The show flatlined because Stephen A couldn’t debate with max 😂😂😂
To be honest, since Max left, I barely find myself watching First Take. It's even fallen out of my youtube algorithm because I don't see videos popping up for me anymore
Stephen A couldn’t even be man enough to show up for Max last day on the show, thats some weak as shit
We loved Max over steven period
SAS was petty and stupid. SAS thinks WAY too much of himself. Max was awesome and SAS got nervous because people liked Max.
The show was amazing when Max was there and the numbers never dipped.
Remember when that one dude said Max was more "black" than Stephen lmao
"That one dude" was hof terrell owens
Max was great!! Especially when he would talk about boxing!
Fact.
Did Stephen A. care about the viewers? The viewers loved Max and we’re disappointed
Leaders make decisions that followers may not know are in their best interests. The fact that First Take still on top and Max is unemployed 😂
@@KKOPPONGzip it up when u done
I liked Max more 🤷🏾♂️
So did I
SAS was getting insecure. Plain and simple. Max was really good and had chemistry with Molly.
The hood loved max,that killed him...Plus max outsmarted him daily 😂😂😂..Stephen A played college ball for 3 mins,this dude is a clownnnn
Max Kellerman is better than Stephen or Shannon or Skip. But they don't want intellect, they want mfs who wanna yell and scream.
exactly lol and you could tell there was a message to Max at a point to 'dumb it down' and come up with more outrageous takes. Id much rather listen to some common sense debates instead of a screaming match every morning lol
Only SAS thought that Max not being a journalist or athlete was a problem. What a clown.
Stephen A think he's the MJ of the TV. Bro Max was way better than him. Not just because you yell at the mic this is good
And I think Steven A don't have good chemistry with Shannon Sharpe. I prefer Shannon with Skip Bayless a thousand times
He wasn't pumped up on Max owning him on every single Take

I liked Max better on the show. SAS was a flip-flopper of many topics. I think the "Max is blacker than you" comment is what did it in.
He fired Max because he was intimidated by Max intelligence, made SAS more stupid than he is.
Shit got stale when Max left
He was mad that Max blacker than him 😅
This dude comes off fake af. Stephen A was no longer the favorite and he was salty about it.
So let me get this right.....
SAS thinks that the fact that he didnt get a contract renewal at one point justifies purposefully getting someone fired?
Simply because SAS felt threatened by the intelligence of his co-host.
What a spoiled little baby.
As the head of the black congregation, we trade SAS for Max K.
SAS didn’t like being 2nd fiddle. Max was the real deal. SAS tried hard to sound smart.
The hate that Smith has towards Max is really weird. Also why is he talking for "the people" I liked Max.
He aint resonating with no one. He just blaming Max for everything. Max is still blacker than him.
Definitely not black 😂😂 u must be white
