:HAHAHA:Just surfing another message board, and I found out about this... check it out:So basically what happened is that Marbury made fun of Stephen A. on his show (Marbury has his own talk show now, for those of you who don't know). Here is what he did, keeping in mind it is only a preview and the whole skit/episode hasn't aired yet (or at least I don't think):Marbury making fun of Stephen A. SmithHere is Stephen A.'s response (go to the 9 minute mark, and it lasts until about the 12:30 mark):http://espn-mp3-od.andomedia.com/stations/.../070319_sas.mp3I thought it was hilarious the first time I heard it, but then later on in the show Stephen A. watches the clip and just totally changes his opinions about the whole thing...

I thought they just moved it to ESPN2, and it aired at like midnight Eastern time. That sucks for him... it started out pretty well, but went downhill from there.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GArenas @ Mar 21 2007, 05:39 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>it got cancelled.</div>Dam...I liked that show.
the only time that show was good was when he interviewed Kobe. That was a dope interview.Outside of that... ehh
Quite Frankly was a funny show. Stephen A Smith was always yelling, so it was an hour of entertainment. I remember when Shaq came on the show and took it over..it became "Quite Shaqly"
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Quite Frankly with Stephen A. Smith was a nightly one-hour television show on ESPN2 hosted by Philadelphia Inquirer columnist and ESPN reporter, Stephen A. Smith. The show premiered on August 1, 2005 and was cancelled on January 11th, 2007 due to low ratings. Smith called the cancellation a "failure" on his part. "Remember, it was 'Quite Frankly With Stephen A. Smith.' The buck stopped with me," Smith states. "This was not ESPN's fault - it was mine." The final episode aired on January 12, 2007.</div>Damn! Sooo Sad it had to end, I enjoyed it.
Stephen A. Smith's show was a joke....People stopped watching the show because people don't like watching player interviews because they're boring....the show was a never ending boring interview.ESPN's most popular shows are all fast moving and go quickly topic to topic, like SportsCenter, PTI and ATH....not many people are going to sit down for an hour and listen to an interview with Michael Strahan.There are simply not enough funny athletes like Shaq to make a show like that interesting.

I really enjoy listening to interviews like that, especially with Stephen A. He doesn't ask all the stupid/obvious questions most media personnel do (like "is your team good enough to win it all?".. they ALL are obviously going to say "yes, when we're healthy and playing together, we can play with any team in this league." Just stupid questions like that). Stephen A. will get personal, he's entertaining, he'll say anything, and if he notices a guy shying away from the question he asked him - he WILL ask it 3 more times until he answers it (in a respectful manner). I really liked that show a lot, I watched it, and I think it sucks that it was taken off the air.
somewhat unrelated but I don't think Stephen A has made a correct prediction in his life about ANYTHING.And what's with marbury's PR rising lately? first the shoes now this? I guess he's trying to distance himself from Francis since they were always clumped together.
