Stephen A Smith recently admitted on air that he knew of “white dudes” having nefarious relationships with staff members in multiple professional sports organizations. He even went so far as to admit that all of those “relationships” may not have been consensual. My question…..Stephen A has had enormous power at ESPN for well over a decade,, so WHY is this the first we are hearing of it??? Is it a defense for your African American friend? Either way….it is an acknowledgement….in his own words…on ESPN air…..that he knew of “white dudes” taking advantage of women and HE SAID NOTHING!!!!!!!

If you’re the Celtics and you fire or suspend a coach and not give out the details, the Stephen A’s of the World Will cry discrimination and racism. If you give them the tip of the Iceberg Info, the Stephen A’s of the world Will cry to the Defense of the Brother saying “why did you have to give out the reason?” It’s all hypocrisy really. If this was a white coach SAS will have no problem going through the issue. I mean where is Ime on All of this? He knew the rules to prevent workplace and legal problems and still he did it. Had he handled this more discreetly maybe the organizational Will not be forced to clean up his Mess.

In the company I worked for, they would have forced Udoka to resign. What I think the Celtics are doing is seeing if this whole Udoka-gate will blow over so Ime can come back to work. I would do the same thing. They did the right thing by dishing out the punishment but they also understand the value of talent. But I think it would be very difficult for Udoka to come back to coach the Celtics again.

But women are always innocent victims. You know this! Ever seen a breakup or a divorce? 100% innocent little princesses.

SAS…the Celtics obviously have more enqs to complete that could lead to a possible firing, and why are you trying to put the victim on the spot and have them I’D, and then play the race card mentioning him being black. His race is not a factor in any of these allegations. No class-SAS. 😔

Stephen A always playing his Black Card, so pathetic. So they suspend the coach for a year and they shouldn’t come out with an explanation??!? How asinine is that take?!

Stephen A should call Matt Barnes and find out what changed his mind on the situation.

The moment this story broke I immediately Knew the girl he wars fooling around with was white…….this was very easy to deduce considering the lengthy suspensión he received.
