Stephen A. Smith and Molly Qerim are doing very little to help their case as it pertains to rumors that they’ve been secretly dating.
The ‘First Take’ co-hosts get into friendly arguments daily, chiding each other on random things. But Smith has perhaps gone a bit too far this time, though he recently came under fire for some very suggestive comments he made to he Molly last month.
Thursday’s episode of the flagship ESPN show saw Smith, Damien Woody, and Kimberly Martin make their picks on who will win the NFC this season. Woody and Martin both picked the Eagles while Stephen A. said he had them down but is having second thoughts.
He wasn’t able to give a pick when pressed by Molly.
“Thanks for educating us on TV,” she said, likely in reference to his use of the word “trepidation.”
“Maybe you could let us know when the show ends,” she added.
“You know, I have to admit to you, I’m pretty focused on how good I’m looking,” Smith responded. “I’m a bit distracted by how smooth I’m looking, and it just shows the hatred because you [Qerim] won’t give me love.”
Molly struggled to get a question in about his pocket square and asked him to stop talking.
“If you tell me to stop talking one more time, I’m gonna wait till you pick up the phone to call me and watch what I do, as much as you talk,” he shot back. “It’s gonna be aight.”
Molly claimed that sometimes there are issues regarding the show that need to be addressed immediately, which is when Smith implied she was lying as he revealed she calls him “just to vent.”

Social media was quick to make their assumptions about the pair:

Two-time WNBA champion Kelsey Plum of the Las Vegas Aces was simply on the sidelines to take in some of the NCAA action when social media exploded on her.
Kelsey Plum was at the Final Four matchup between the Iowa Hawkeyes and UConn Huskies when cameras found her seated in the crowd.
Plum was in attendance for the game and was shown on the broadcast making faces while eating popcorn, and it didn’t take social media long to chime in with a barrage of responses.
The graphic on the bottom of the post showed one of her greatest accolades in college – John R. Wooden Award winner in 2017, which was her senior season.
Kelsey Plum goofing off and eating popcorn made social media go off and roast her for trying to be funny in an awkward way:
