This 100% sums it all up. SAS felt so threatened by Max just being himself. Max was a cool dude. He just happened to be very intelligent and very well educated and Stephen A felt so visibly threatened by it. The world saw this clearly and that’s why the majority is supporting Max. Now, to add insult to injury, SAS is trying to throw Max under the bus. SMH.

Max killed it on Around the Horn, Sports Nation, First Take, HBO Boxing and The Max Kellerman Show. He’s a real analyst and doesn’t talk out of his 🍑 without justifying his position with facts or solid evidence to support his opinion. He was better than Stephen A. Stephen A yells and have emotional rants to try to bolster his takes and throws around words to make it seem like he knows more than he does. I’ll never forget Joe Rogans body language the night Stephen A was trying to lend some expertise on MMA. He knows how to dance and fluff around topics that can fool the casual sports fan but not those who know better. Max seems like he has principles and wasn’t going to play the role Stephen A wanted him to play. Stephen A is an intelligent man that fears intelligence. Really reminds me of that line Tony Stark dropped in Avengers. Stephen A begged Max to do the show and wanted to see Max get some shine as long as Max’s shine didn’t shine brighter than his. 🤷♂️
