It's not about him being "good" or not. Just the authenticity that translates across the mediums. Like Jim Rome, love it or hate it, at least it's real.

it's a schtick. Stephen A figured out that by yelling so much, ESPN loved him and had him on more guest appearances while he was a columnist for the Philadelphia inquirer. And like any good rat, SAS learned from the experience and decided to go for more cheese. What happened to substance over style? Stephen A knows basketball but he knows very little about any other sport yet loves to talk about everything. He sucks.
