    “He did the impossible and your not impressed?” Yup sounds about Skip
  • Everytime I see them post a clip of skip and Stephen a, feel disappointed that we'll never see them on TV together again.

    Funniest part of this whole thing is Joe Budden being the guest of the day

    “Any man named Zaza is a problem.” Man, as you look back on that quote by Stephen A, it has gotten more and more true as the years have gone by.

    These throwbacks are amazing
  • @Roulette914
    Skip was a lot more light-hearted when he was with Stephen A. These seem like friendly conversations, look at the genuine laughter at 8:45 . He sees Shannon as an opponent and often comes at him aggressively at the start of the show. First Take was a conversation. Undisputed is a competition.

    7:09 Oh you gonna know who that is, Skip. A few years later you gonna know...
  • @ajdiaz5525

    Jay Crawford was a good host . Miss the old first take . Sas and skip made a good team . They need to ask for a reunion asap even for a special appearance like if skip went to first take for a episode or being sas to undisputed for a episode would be so lit 💯💯
