Stephen A. angry over criticism of Donte DiVincenzo tweets: This is a disgrace | First Take | ESPN 

Leigh Arlington you know whats crazy i never saw anything like this the last time was probably when george brett hit a homerun against the yankees and they let him finish running around the bases to tell the reffs that the bat was illegal to get him disqualified thats what this is but the guy just messing with dontes money

fuck that, 14 year olds should know better. BUT, at that age I blame his mentors/parents.

f ade yea because god forbid a 14 year old listen to and repeat rap music.

Tom storm @facts like what fuck are we really talking about here

Tom storm LOOOL make sure you have that same energy when you say it in front of a black man

Yeah or maybe it was an old jealous friend trying to shame his name in any case whoever did it is a garbage person.

Methodofication or some salty Michigan fan 🤷‍♂️

Mike Carter nope

It's not that hard to look for. You can simply search up with advanced search. You just enter the keywords and boom, they show up.

And relax, I don't agree with this. It was messed up. Just saying how easy it is to look for old tweets.

Mike Carter let go of the hate psycho and move on with your life

The One and Only but the media does it all the time everyone that has 15 minutes of fame behind the scenes the media is looking for dirt on you

The One and Only I

The One and Only facts

The One and Only but goes all out on lonzo and lavar lol

KillingWithaSmile613 you'd be surprised how many people DO give a shit

Mike Carter lol. Nigga isnt even offensive. It's a joke of word. Go all chris brown in his new video with lil dicky

Mike Carter How do you know what the devil would and wouldnt say? People that use religion to prove their point in a completely unrelated situation tend to make stupid assumptions

Mike Carter the only racist individual here, is you.

KillingWithaSmile613 what if a 14 year old white kid called you the n-word and then told you he was just quoting a lyric would that be okay with you

Ashly McBride they didnt forget, he clearly stated that

Mal Khalifa Stfu

Mike Carter Who?!

What's the point of bringing up your extreme faults if you not influential on anyone? Does a hawk worry about an ants past?

Ashly McBride but isn't that what the median people do all the time they wait till you become famous and then they look for dirt on you

Ravens, 76ers, Penn State fan #JustABlackAtheist why you a Sixers fan but not a eagles fan?🤔👀

Facts

Cameron J he tweeted lyrics bruh, it’s the 21st century. stop hating on a man more successful than you.

Cameron J serious question, no hate. Dude you realize he never "said" N word right? He tweeted out a Meek Mill lyric.....the kid is from Philly listening to a Philly rapper. He can't say it, and SHOULDNT tweet it. But with all of the horrible racism in our country your gonna latch onto a 14 yr old tweeted rap lyrics?

Ruben Lopez he was quoting rap lyrics

Stephano You sound like a fuckin idiot.

Stephano your a fucking clown lmao ,he was a kid and black people just promote the word like it's nothing im black. Btw

BluntHeadAssMEDIA Fo real cuh. If us black people don’t care, why do white people care? Stupid

Stephano This one of the stupidest comments that I have ever witnessed during my time as god. You should be ashamed of yourself for putting out this insane level of stupidity.

Exactly bro

What rap lyric is "I ain't playing at the gym no more cuz hating ass niggas is crybabies" or "these niggas is dickriding"? Oh we just gone focus on the one that was a lyric huh

Him including the N word/other derogatory stuff is only a problem if he used it more recently (like a year ago). As a kid who isn't aware of social issues/still doing dumb stuff its fine. Should only get scrutinized if he kept doing it when he is old enough to know of the consequences

Mike Mars doesnt matter. Its a word. If you are offended by it dont say it yourself

Mike Mars really nigga? Jit was 14 that was 7 years ago if yo ass gonna be butthurt by that and shame him for it you need to grow up man smh

aicalj exactly if he's using it in the right contact there's no need to be out Roar about it I use the word nigga been useing it since 14 or younger amound around my black friends and others that's how we talked plus I was gang affiliated 👌💯✌

Gary Winthorpe dude move on with your life and stop playing the poor me victim card

Gary Winthorpe "majority of your race is dumb and ignorant" glad to see you can speak for the majority of an entire race. Yes the word is derived, it's used as a term of solidarity to say the original form doesn't define them. The fact that you don't understand that and complain that white people can't say it says a lot. And I'm not black btw. The only dumb and ignorant one is you.

Gary Winthorpe this is coming from a white dude from what I understand the word is used by black folks who’s goal is to take the sting out of the word. When a white person directs it a a black person I think a lot of people feel it has a double meaning. Not gonna judge someone’s character from a 7 year old tweet when someone was 14 though he shouldn’t do it again though

julius thompson I thought u Asian! 🤣 nah jk!

Ok lil Gary. Since you wanna play stupid. The kid was referring to a rap song by a black artist, and while I would probably advise him not to use that word, he was a kid, and he wasn't trying to use it in a negative light. We talking about a white kid who's listening to a black artist, and obviously embracing some of our hip-hop culture. And while I don't condone his use of the n-word, I do understand that his intent wasn't negative. Now what you just tried to pull isn't a reflection of your entire race. It's more a reflection of you being a piece of shit undercover beta male racist. Don't talk to my about my ancestors you modern day colonizer. We took a word meant to devalue you us and flipped it. So now you mad? I'm so glad that weak minded bums like you are in the minority within your own race. Next time you bum, don't come for me, if I didn't send for you!!!

Because he's on whitey side lol you yakubians crack me up!

Ruben Lopez bodega hive stand up!

Gang gang!

IAM FROM THE NETHERLANDS same lol. It took long enough

Mc'L Jokedan to tweet a Meek Mill rap lyric? Dude white girls do that daily EDIT: his name is Donte tho, which is amazingly hilarious

156football facts lol

156football 7 years ago hell naw Bitches only knew meek after drake

156football not 7 years ago they didn’t

Mc'L Jokedan 😂😂😂😂

Media is terrible PERIOD

Nathan Keelin It has always been horrible. It just seems worse because of the PC obsession is coming to light. The media member who asked that should be ashamed

Can be 2040, Just gotta stay on your lane I can be cool asf with other race You don’t have to call me nigga Is not gonna make a difference your still my boi , no matter what race you are

Brent Foster it don't matter. Hate is hate. Plus he should of not posted it

Forgem Nos He was 14!!!

Forgem Nos bro I’m not gonna try to debate or degrade just sincerely ask why you feel as though this is the kids fault lol

Since forever. This country has been bringing up old shit for as long as its existed. If he gets a pass then bring Donald sterling back.

that's crazy talk bro

Freddy Gaulman that’s the thing with people on the left. They don’t have to know who you are to know that you’re racist, they just know.

dan cash I AGREE HE WAS A KID JUST QUOTING LYRICS (I SEE NO PROBLEM WITH IT) BUT PLZ DO NOT SAY THE “N-WORD” HOLDS NO WEIGHT. ITS STILL A PROBLEM IN ‘18 CLEARLY. LOOK AT OUR BUM ASS PRESIDENT AND HIS RACIST FOLLOWERS. BLACK PPL GETTING KILLED BY POLICE FOR FUN. A WHITE PERSON HAS NO SAY OF WHETHER OR NOT THE WORD SHOULD STILL BE OFFENSIVE

sure a middle aged white boy would think this

D3 ERA agree but it kind of odd that seen as a term of endearment even when there killing one another . People can feel anyway they want to me people that say it sound uneducated. I could never picture Mike Tomlin saying that word in public.

who's killing one another? white kids killing 17 kids at his school? RU-vidrs shooting up the RU-vid building? or you must be talking about the old white shooter from vegas killing dozens on dozens. what do black ppl saying a word have to do with killing someone?

Darren Miller Jr So we can use anything you did or said when your 14 against you ? IMO you sound like a female always bring up things from 7 years ago . Dont be bitch made man your better then that .

King Gaming100 you wouldn't say that if a 14 year old took away a family member from you

1990758 - he didn't say anything wrong, he quoted a rap song, there's not a damn thing wrong with that.

D Rex he said it at 14 he said it now if you're black get in an argument with a white 14 year old and see how fast that n-word comes out all those votes are you still using that word trust me

I’m surprised by Stephen Smith reaction And I’m sure he wasn’t saying in the racial way ,I’m not trying to say he’s right but clearly it wasn’t singing the song to offend anyone If you catch him again then blame him

QuanThaGod this wasn’t discovered by blacks

Quan Tha God: The Professional Black Person

SociallyIneptFailure Yep

wrong is wrong

Jaron Woods probably by a michigan fan

Cavs Bandwagon W

I think it wasn’t about Stephen Smith Being on his position ,he might be okay for him on real life but on ESPN he get a lot backslash, if he speaks from the heart. People would think he’s advocating the n word and made seem okay to people to say it, is like any regular job is not only young people watching, he gotta speaks for the older people the following him from years and asking him giving him a hard time Why do you said it was okay for a white people to say it so is just how media works I work on radio fm almost four years And like every job there’s politics And you can’t be yourself sometimes Specially on first take platform you’re not your own boss,you’re working for a brand If you fucked up, you’re hurting every one from the company ,you working for a major brand with many sponsors ships and some of them if you don’t keep them happy The company is losing money And everyone loses bonuses High ratings you win a Vegas trips It’s crazy.

Omar A False equivalencies out the ass

Got nothing to do with me too, it's been done in politics for the longest and haters been doing it since the days of Jesus.

Tf? What woman hurt you enough to say this ignant shit bruh

Dante Jackson why?

Dante Jackson why because Stephen A. correct for once???

Dante Jackson So they should ask Max instead? Because they are the only 2 dudes on the show.

JOSHUA Yancey shut up

Jack Fuqua 😂😂😂

You make a fair point

Well, since he was quoting a song the words in question aren't even his own words.

JOSHUA Yancey He was 14 though

Leandre Sthilaire you know that comes with the territory when it comes to black men.

Leandre Sthilaire I agree with you. If a black athlete had done something seven year ago at 14, some of the same people who are here defending Divincenzo would be saying 14 is old enough to know better. Those same people would be dragging Steven A for attempting to claim the young man should be given a break because he was only a kid. They would be kicking and streaming about people needing to take personal responsibility.

Oh shut up I’m not black n I love Stephan A

Sosa Montana 215 ok😂😂😂😂

FACTS

Joseph Garcia - I don't think you understand what SAS is saying. He is backing up that player.
