My Take
Stephen A. Smith is, to me, the most fascinating case study in modern sports media. People dismiss him as just volume, but you do not survive decades at the top of ESPN on volume alone; underneath the theatrics is a newspaper reporter's instinct for narrative and timing. I confess I do not always agree with his takes, and I suspect that is precisely the point: he engineered himself into a figure you have to respond to. Whether ranting about the NBA or wandering into politics, he understands that sports talk is entertainment first. I respect anyone who knows exactly what business they are in and dominates it this thoroughly.
