Stephen A Smith didn’t appreciate being called out by an ESPN colleague during Monday’s episode of ‘First Take,’ but there wasn’t much he could say to defend himself.

The WNBA has been a huge talking point at The Worldwide Leader in Sports since the arrivals of Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, but it appears there’s some bitterness on Monica McNutt’s part as she feels the network should have been paying attention years ago.

McNutt put Stephen A. on the spot during said show to start the week, asserting he has given little time to women’s sports over the past few years.

“Who talks about the WNBA, who talks about women, who talks about women’s sports more than First Take?” Smith asked during a WNBA discussion on Monday morning.

“Stephen A., respectfully, with your platform, you could have been doing this three years ago if you wanted to,” McNutt replied.

Stephen A Smith was clearly shaken up by the retort. “Wow,” he said, accusing Monica of not watching that many episodes of ‘First Take.’

Check out the exchange in the video from Awful Announcing:

“Ole boy didn’t know what to say!” one fan joked.

“She’s 100 sadly,” another fan claimed. “They could have been doing it 10 years ago if they wanted. Storylines make the league and its been a big miss in the marketing dept of the WNBA to not have narratives debated on these shows.”

Stephen A Smith Had Someone Speak Up In His Defense

One user defended Stephen A Smith, stating he has shown women’s basketball more love than anyone else.

“I been watching first take for years Stephen A def showed the wnba more love than any other platform I seen but at the same time u can’t force topics on ppl the audience weren’t interested in the wnba to be talking bout it regularly,” they wrote.

Smith and ESPN have been doing their part to support women’s sports lately. However, it does seem like it’s mostly because of Clark.

So perhaps the network could have done much better on such a front. But better late than never, right?

REPORT: Details Emerge On The Shocking Amount Of Money Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift Spend In A Single Day Together

A new report details the whopping amount of money Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce spend daily as a couple.

Travis Kelce and the Grammy Award-winning singer are closing in on the first anniversary of their relationship. Their romance was essentially confirmed to the public last September when Taylor Swift attended the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 3 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.

The relationship between the future Pro Football Hall of Famer and the legendary singer has drawn intense media coverage. The NFL saw noticeable increases in viewership for the 2023 Chiefs games that Swift attended.

So, how much does this popular power couple spend per day? Let’s just say the amount is jaw-dropping, even for two very wealthy celebrities.

A source told Life & Style Magazine that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift easily spend $100,000 a day when they’re together. The source cited bodyguards, private jets, luxurious hotel rooms and plenty more that add up to the six-figure expenses:

“Taylor and Travis have become international jetsetters and their extravagant spending is off the charts. The multiple bodyguards, the private jets, the deluxe hotel rooms, plus the romantic gestures they’re both known for probably makes them the most excessively spending couple in the world. It’s pretty extreme.”
