    "Some people say you're the best forward since Sla-va Med-ved-en-ko" 

    Hilarious.  Cool that Conley and Noah kinda responded to Lil' SAS, too.

    Wow...I agree Exick, that what ridiculous. I don't know whether to vote down for having wasted two minutes of my life listening  and watching that idiot, or vote it up because it's pretty funny as well.

    If you haven't seen it, last year's edition helps to set the context.

    Dude, this was effing gold guys. I think Stephen A. is starting to become a cult-ironic hero to me.

    "Why hasn't my praise changed your life?"

    I think Stephen A. has a brain the size of a walnut & an ego the size of Michigan.  The sock's got more important things to say than SAS.

    The first sign of a bad impression: You have to announce who you are doing an impression of.

    I do, however, applaud the persistence of the person doing the impression.

Stephen A Smith Voted Worst Sports Announcer By AOL Users
SPORTSbyBROOKS — SPEECHLESS - STEPHEN A-1 WORST SPORTS ANNOUNCER: It's well-known how importantly Stephen A. Smith feels about the blogosphere . Now the internet masses have been led astray by the "untrained writers" once more. WITH LEATHER shares the important results of an important poll offered up by AOL FANHOUSE , and Stephen is A-1 on top of the hot list. Too bad for Screamin' A, it's recognition for being America's Worst Sports Announcer . The blogger basher was able to beat out such cringe-inducing competition as Lee Corso, Shannon Sharpe, and in the tourney topper, Monday Night mouth Tony Kornheiser. Congrats, S.A.S.!

The NBA Comparison Series: Brook Lopez
Super, Scintillating and Sarcastic — NBADraft.net is a great Web site. They do a ton of really detailed scouting, compile all the best NBA news and prospect reports and are generally the best resource for the NBA Draft. But there is a catch. Those NBA Comparisons given for each prospect. Some of them are completely ridiculous. I've spent a lot of time reviewing them, not to learn more about potential draftees, but to laugh hysterically for hours and hours. By my count, the greatest comparison ever is Josh McRoberts, whose NBA Comparison is... Chris Webber (less athletic)... yes, less athletic than Chris Webber. Last time I checked Josh was not in a ...

Chicago Bulls Hereby Declare Joakim Noah 'The Bench Princess'
FanIQ Blog — (cue up 3:25 in the video) You didn't need to be Nostradamus to predict Joakim Noah would have a run-in with authority in the NBA, but you might not have predicted his own teammates would be the individual suspending him. During a Friday practice in Philadelphia, Bulls rookie reportedly blew up at assistant Ron Adams. As a result, head coach Jim Boylen suspended him for the evening's game. Joakim's teammates decided that wasn't enough and demanded he be benched for Sunday's game against the Hawks. I see Noah's all-about-me attitude is rubbing off well on his peers. ...

Open thread: Regular season game 58
Bullets Forever — Apologies for the lack of a comprehensive thread tonight.  I'm drowned in midterms this week, so there hasn't been much blogging time this week.   Couple links first.  Ivan's article in the Post today is about Butler's injury, but there isn't much new to report.  He quotes an anonymous league source saying the Wizards are "optimistic" that Butler will be okay after he rests for an undisclosed amount of time.  Earth shattering.  For those who want to engage in a journalism ethics question, the Times hasn't run anything -- print or online -- about the Butler injury this week.  They've made the decision to wait on the ...

Classic NBA Draft Moment: Stephen A. Smith Gets Heckled
MVN Outsider — Unfortunately, Awful Announcing reports that Stephen A. Smith’s role in tonight’s broadcast of the NBA Draft will be limited to conducting player interviews. In other words, he’s been booted off the main set. Why is this unfortunate, you ask? Well, Screamin’ A.’s reduced role in the broadcast means that the Stephen A. Smith Heckling Society of Gentlemen might have a tough time chiding their favorite loudmouth NBA “expert” about his love for Cheez Doodles, among other things. The SASHSoG made a fine appearance at the 2006 Draft, but in 2007, they introduced the world to Lil’ Stephen: ...

Here’s A List Of Steve Smiths That Are OK For You To Fuck With
Tirico Suave — I’m not sure why people keep taking on Carolina Panther Steve Smith. Whether he’s dropping dudes in the film room or letting rookies know where they stand , he already seemed pretty bad ass and now he’s sending teammates who cross him off the field on a cart . He’s clearly the top dog on the Steve Smith heap. So just for you gluttons for abuse, I’ve compiled a list of other Steve Smiths that would make for better and more importantly, much less dangerous fodder. Steve Smith Drummer 1.

First Madden now SAS, Karma is awesome
slowbreaker.com — First Madden now SAS, Karma is awesome I do not know what we did as fans this past week to deserve all this good stuff, but we are being blessed. First Madden decided to hang them up and now ESPN will not renew Stephen A. Smith's contract. In a weird twist SAS was actually very gracious to ESPN. Via Awful Announcing and StephenA.com: My last day at ESPN is May 1. It’s been a wonderful, wonderful ride, filled with great accomplishments, great memories and, most importantly, great friendships. It’s difficult to express how appreciative I am to everyone at ESPN for all they’ve done for my career. But nothing lasts forever. It’s time to move on. While my love for ...

"Just call it the 'BS' system"
We Want The Lion - A Penn State Football Blog — Apprently, a couple of congressmen grilled the BCS suits over the legitimacy of their system. ESPN.com, via AP. We feel like we can link to ESPN again, now that they no longer employ Stephen A. Smith. Quite frankly, you sir, are a douchebag. Anyway, college football.  We have a hard time thinking of a single person we know, out of all the people who follow college football, that approve of the BCS.  The only people we think like it are probably SEC and Big 12 schools... and USC.  If you play in the Big 12 or SEC you can lose 2 or 3 games and still get in. Undefeated anywhere else just isn't good enough. We're not going to ...

The Definitive Compilation of "Heckling Stephen A Smith at the NBA Draft"
That NBA Lottery Pick — One of my favorite things to watch after the NBA Draft is the latest installment of "Heckling Stephen A Smith" where one intrepid individual mocks (former) ESPN NBA analyst Stephen A Smith with a sock puppet. Due to ESPN letting Stephen A's contract run out without renewing it, this appears to be the end of these videos. So I decide in honor of the creative genius to put together a compilation post of every "Heckling Stephen A Smith at the NBA Draft" including the most recent one done at the 2009 NBA Draft. Enjoy!
