Sean Salisbury vs John Clayton

[MTK]

I don't think SS would have went there if he didn't think Clayton could handle it.

I'd have to agree with Mattyk72. If you ever watch these two go at it on ESPN, they take shots at each other all the time. Some times Salisbury comes across like a d*ck, some times Clayton is the d-bag. Salisbury probably apologized afterwards, but if he didn't, they are big boys. They can take it. Just my opinion, but think of this: how many times did anyone think Stephen A. Smith came across as being harsh when he was first on ESPN? I did, but after listening to what he had to say over time, I've come to respect what he says. He makes valid points, even if it seems like he's "up in your face" with what he says. He's friggin' awesome & his show is great on ESPN Radio.

Yeah they seem to have a friendly relationship so I don't see this as an issue at all.

I recently started listening to Smith's show and I have to say I really like him too. I like him more on the radio vs. on TV. Plus he just cracks me up how he gets fired up over things.

Stephen A. Smith is hysterical when he goes into his rants. Mattyk72, we some times don't agree about things on here, but on this, I think we are on the same page.
