Ryan Clark Calls Lamar Jackson The First “Authentic” Black Quarterback

16 Mar

I’m aware that Clark just signed a new ESPN deal. And he’s certainly doing a great job at going viral and keeping his name in the news with all the fire’s he’s been starting lately, whether that’s with Tiki Barber or other sport pundits. But opining from the experience of being a former NFL player and just utterly failing to do your research and saying something stupid is another. Like calling Lamar Jackson the first “authentic” Black QB when past legends like Randall Cunningham, Michael Vick, Warren Moon, Patrick Mahomes and Doug Williams have played the game?!? Really Ryan, do better.

Chris Russo Was Right About Shaq Being 5th Best Center in NBA History

1 Jan

Jay Williams is a former NBA player so I don’t expect him to know his NBA history like your average basketball pundit you see on TV. But Stephen A. Smith, a certified and longtime basketball aficionado, should know better than to dismiss Mad Dog like that. Russo is a sports broadcasting legend and historian who knows his shit (which is exactly why Smith brought him to “First Take” in the first place). That said, Kareem is definitely the greatest center of all-time imo. Wilt is definitely top 5. I’d put Bill Russell in there too. The next 3 for me would be Olajuwon, Shaq and then Malone. But I’m not mad at anyone putting Malone and his 3 MVP’s ahead of Shaq.
