ESPN’s First Take crew spent much of Tuesday’s show debating panelist Damien Woody’s beef with Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield, which centered around Mayfield’s reaction to former coach Hue Jackson joining division rival Cincinnati.
Woody argued Monday that Mayfield was being hypocritical, having decided to transfer schools during his college career, but Mayfield fired back in an Instagram comment, writing that the situation wasn’t comparable and calling Jackson “fake.”
On Tuesday, ESPN’s Will Cain spoke out in defense of Mayfield, reasoning that his issue with Jackson taking the Bengals exemplifies his competitive nature… but tensions boiled over during the contentious segment. Cain screamed at Max Kellerman when Kellerman claimed he had made the same point five times.
At the end of the segment, Stephen A. Smith blasted Cain, which led to another shouting match.
Smith: “The only thing I have to say is this, we should have a separate show on talking to Will about the existence of entitlement – because clearly he doesn’t understand some people have it, and some people don’t. That is not a conversation you would want to get into with me about.”
Cain: “You know what, Stephen A.? You might do this. Maybe you could impanel a group of four people to debate me all at once and see who could win. Or you could try to take me one-on-one.”
*Simultaneously*
Smith: “Well, first of all, I don’t have to do either. Because I’ve waxed your behind on enough occasions one-on-one. I don’t need any help dealing with you. Please, you just learning sports, step back.”
Cain: “You could do it however you want. Because I’m here, I’m here at your disposal, Stephen A. Hey Stephen A., I’m here at your invitation, as always.”
