Stephen A. Smith sure knows how to kick off awkward moments on air.

He had one this week with Molly Qerim when he couldn’t stop saying “vibrating” on air.

The ESPN veteran made a number of comments about host Molly Qerim’s “vibrating” cell phone during Thursday’s show. Stephen A. has discussed Qerim’s phone going off randomly while on air in previous episodes of First Take, but this day, he had to speak up on it.

Qerim hit back that the phone was “not ringing” but was set to silent and on vibrate.

Stephen A. said: “I tried to say ringing but do you want me to say vibrating on air?

“You always like me mentioning vibrating on air when your phone [goes off]. You really want me to do that?”

 

Orlovsky did not want his face shown as he picked up a Philadelphia Phillies flag that was lying on the First Take table and draped it over his head.

Molly tried to stutter out a reply but Stephen A. just wouldn’t stop: “Just go with the ring, Molly! Just go with the ring.”

Qerim said, “I distance myself from these comments.”

Smith fired back, “I’m trying to avoid the vibrating!”

Orlovsky finally chimed in to say, “I’m trying to avoid getting fired.”

Like many mentioned in the comment section, the HR department just may have to get involved so conversations like this will not happen again on air.

Former NFL Quarterback Brett Favre Lashes Out At Taylor Swift, Accuses Her Of Using Her “Influence” For Foul Reasons

Former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre has taken a swipe at pop sensation Taylor Swift for political reasons ahead of the upcoming 2024 presidential elections.

The 11-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro is known to be a supporter of former President Donald Trump and has previously endorsed him.

He’s since taken a shot at Swift, who recently endorsed Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes informing everyone that he wouldn’t endorse a candidate.

“Good take by Mahomes,” he wrote in a tweet.

“I see a lot of celebs trying to influence their audience instead of letting the people think for themselves. If the best choice for them ain’t clear and they’re easily swayed by their fav pop artist, it’s not going to be a good thing.”
