Stephen A. Smith fires back at Emmanuel Acho for calling his Lakers take racist "I like Emanuel Acho and I'm not offended. Everybody has a right to disagree, but what do you mean I'm quick to bring up racism? I pride myself on being fair" "It's real easy to... jump on group think and what's popular and what people are not going to push back on. Respectfully, brother, I think you taking the easy way out with that one" "You turn around and sign Austin Reeves. Not only that, you go out and get Welka Kesler. In the meantime, LeBron James walks out the building. Rui Hachimura walks out the building. Marcus Smart walks out the building" "You can say it didn't need to be said I respectfully disagree. You could say it wasn't the right timing I respectfully disagree. It was absolutely the right timing because it just happened in real time"show more

Thank you for the free therapy Namjoon😭 👤: You were in that dark place psychologically and you got out of it. It wasn't forever. What would you say to someone who you know, there may be a fan who feels that way right now? 🐨: I got out of that crisis I had last year because of the all those environments I had. I got out of it like physically but mentally I just, I'm just admitting it that essential sorrow. I don't know what is what is called but it's always there in it, in some part of my heart. So I think I'm still in the middle of just netting who I am. I'm like maybe too sensitive than the others, maybe the average or I think too much. Sometimes I can't sleep. But do you want to die? No, I try to love the life, the skies, taking walks, good friends, drinks, music, interview. I'm still fighting the demons. And I think maybe it could be forever. And forever is too long, like I said. But I just want to say one thing like simply, in short: I think life is fun. It's not because I'm BTS or I'm a star in the spotlight, I think just life is fun and living is better.

Allen Iverson on the GOAT debate between Michael Jordan and LeBron James: “The way I look at it, is Michael is always going to be the GOAT to me, you know what I mean? And LeBron to me, I feel like if you go in the dictionary and you look up basketball player, you’ll see LeBron James, you know what I mean? And you know the whole GOAT thing to me I think a lot of times it gets out of hand because I think a lot of times people will take away from one player what they did you know what I mean? To boost up the other player. You know what I mean? That’s not what you do. I feel like a lot of times you know people get caught up in the whole GOAT thing but your GOAT is your GOAT. You have your opinion to name anyone your GOAT if you want to. You know what I mean? You’re not wrong by saying anyone’s your GOAT. I had my fans say I’m the GOAT all the time. I don’t agree with them because I think it’s Mike.” (Via Stephen A Smith)

Novak Djokovic: "I knew I wouldn't have the crowd on my side playing Federer and Nadal. It was like that from start to finish. And it really got to me at first and I couldn't overcome it. I was fighting against them and myself. People say, 'Novak needs to be provoked to bring out his best.' In some situations, that was true and it did happen. But that's not what I want. Who wants to step out on court and be booed? For example, imagine you step out on Bernabeu Stadium and 80,000 people boo you and you have to constantly play in those conditions. It's not easy. I needed to get used to it, and how you adapt determines the outcome of everything."

Ethan Evans (ex-Amazon VP) on his Director promo: "So I said, my career is very important to me. I need to understand how important it is to Amazon because if it's not as important to Amazon as it is to me, I need to think about that. And you know, I need to think about that isn't a direct threat. But you laughed. Everyone understands. But I'm not doing it in a way that is easily easy for him to push back on. See, if I say, well, if it's not as important to you, making it personal with him, if it's not important to you as it is to me, then I might quit. That's a threat. And all managers are going to be like, hey, you can't extort me, right? That isn't how it works right? He pushed the promotion through." Ethan Evans Ryan: "When you say that wording, I feel the effects of extortion a bit, right? But I couldn't, I could not label it extortion."

Rory McIlroy says the way he beat his first-tee nerves was to picture the ball in the trees and walk the worst case all the way to its end. "I say this all the time. It's counterintuitive to a lot of people to do this, but I do. If you're trying to overcome anxiety or nerves or on performance, I do try to think about, well, what's the worst that could happen?" "I'm not gonna die on the golf course, thankfully." "I used to have, like, first tee nerves, like, big time. I would struggle on the first tee. And so I would say to myself, well, what's the worst that could happen?" "So if you hit it in the trees, okay, then what do you do? You go up there and you figure it out, you know, you're skillful enough to hit a punch shot out of the trees and, you know, get it up to the green and get it up and down and make a par and move on." "For whatever reason, imagining, like, the worst-case scenario, give me a level of comfort, because I felt like any worst-case scenario that I could bring up in my head, I'll be able to deal with." "Especially on the first tee for me... if you get nervous on the golf course, you get tight... it gives me a sense of freedom. And like, if I can swing free, that's when I play my best golf." "So whatever thought process I need to get into to get there, whether that's imagining the worst-case scenario." "I think I'm not standing behind a tee shot and visualizing myself hit a bad shot. Like, I'm visualizing myself hitting it where I want to. But I think just even before I get to that point, thinking, well, what's the worst that can happen?" "And then if the worst that can happen isn't that bad, it's like, well, that's okay. You'll be able to manage it." What I find wild is that he never once tries to calm himself down. He walks into the scary version instead, all the way through the punch shot and the par, and the nerves lose their grip because nothing is unknown anymore. The thing you are dreading shrinks the same way once its worst version has an ending you have already seen. - Rory McIlroy (Rory McIlroy) on The WHOOP Podcast (WHOOP)

I want the President to be wildly successful. I'm going to be wind at his back on things like inflation. I want him to bring peace around the world. I want to deal with the border situation, and I'm really there for him. I want to be helpful. And, Mr. President, from time to time, I'm going to disagree with you. And it will be respectful. And I think when I disagree with you, it will be helpful. And I hope you'll listen to me. More from This Week w/Jonathan Karl

💬 glow up tips spiritually not just physically 🌙 I would say, don't think negative . energy is really real. what you say out loud, what you think to yourself, and what you believe in about yourself is energy that is out in the open, the universe takes that and gives it back to you. so if you're like "oh i'm ugly, i hate myself" you know, you look at yourself and you gonna all like "ah i hate the way i look i hate this i hate that" you're gonna be that you know. so don't be a lil bitch, love yourself even if you don't just fake it. and if could give you any tips i'd say spritual shower, look into that.

Frost: Do you think most Iowans would agree with President Trump that FEMA should suddenly stop existing ? Reynolds: I don't think he's eliminating, and I think that what I had understood was he was thinking that maybe it should go back to the states Frost: The president was very clear on this. He believes that the agency, FEMA should be completely eliminated. Do you agree with that or do you not agree with that? I mean, it's OK to disagree sometimes with, you know, Reynolds: Well, I'm not afraid to disagree.

Suns guard Collin Gillespie on his interaction with Draymond Green in Saturday's loss to the Warriors: "I ain't even get under his skin. Like, he said something to me and I said something back to him and I don't know if he I thought I wasn't going to respond to what he said to me? I'm 26 years old, I'm a grown man. I'm not going to just let somebody call me a name and then not say anything back. I didn't really get under his skin. I just said what he said back to me and that was it and then he freaked out so I don't really know." On what Green said to him: "I can't say. You could probably put it together but I can't say it in the media. I just said don't talk to me like that. That's all I said. It wasn't crazy and I used the terminology he used." #Suns #DubNation

"And so sometimes like God speaks to me, I think primarily God speaks through me through action. And I think he speaks through everyone through action. You know, we like to talk a lot, but not a lot of people like to live it out. And I make mistakes, but I want to try to live it out to the best of my ability. I think secondly, through the way of communication, I've always had a heart to make complex ideas simpler to understand because I'm not a smart guy. I have a hard time reading Shakespeare and complex literature, so I like doing that. But sometimes I'll be sitting and talking with someone, and I feel like God tells me something about the person. They're struggling with something or if they've got a physical ailment and I'll ask. And sometimes it's true. Sometimes it's not. I'm not not discouraged if it's right or wrong, but if it's right, sometimes God speaks through that way. Those are a few ways God speaks through me, but, but the intrusive thing is so beautiful because I think he can speak to everyone intrusively and it is so sweet when it happens. And it was, it was happening this morning to me in the shower, which is so sweet and beautiful, you know. I struggle a lot with what people think about me because I've always struggled with people pleasing before being a Christian. And so, you know, if I'm misunderstood or someone takes something in the way that I didn't say it, I get hurt because I'm like, oh, I didn't mean it that way. Or, you know, whatever. So I'm kind of talking to Jesus and I'm in the shower praying and I'm going, man, God, I want to be more like you. I want to be how you want me to be. I want to love you. And I want to be your son. And I just want to focus on being yours. And I don't want to care what other people think. And this, this and that. And Jesus was speaking to me about some practical things I needed to do. Like it would help you if you, you know, stopped looking at what people say online. It would help if you deleted Instagram. And it would help if you did this. And, it would help if you would just trust other people to do what they're supposed to do. So you can focus on being mine. And I'm sitting there in the shower going like, wow, this is so good. And it's so hard, but it's so good." Bryce Crawford, Minister

Bam Adebayo GOES IN on the critics that says his 83 point game performance is unethical: "For the couch coaches, I mean, if you're in my shoes and you have, first of all, y'all are blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. Get that first. I was not the one letting me go one-on-one the whole game until I had 70, and then you started to send a double. At that point, I got 70 with, like, what? nine minutes left to go in the game you think i'm not going for it like like and that's the thing that's crazy when they talk about the unethical part of the basketball i'm like if i have 70 points with 9 minutes to go Who would just be like, you know, coach, just take me out. Yeah, right. Anybody in my shoes with nine minutes left? Okay. A minute? All right. Nine? Yeah, I'm going for it. You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care because a lot of people, they're upset because if they did play, they never had a chance to get that close to chasing greatness. And then if you get that close to chasing greatness, that's the point of chasing it so you can surpass it. And some of the people have never played basketball. So like if you've been in the backyard and you and a couple of your homies have been playing 21 and you got 19. You're not going to get an easy look off. And four, they're going to talk about the free throws. It's not like I shoot 15 free throws a game. It's not like I average 10 free throws a game. You can watch the film. I was legitimately getting fouled every time. So I went to the free throw line."

Smith: “Well, I’m going to say something that’s going to get me in trouble, but I don’t care: I will defend you to the hill against Gavin Newsom for one reason and one reason only, that debate that he had against Governor DeSantis, you could not have been more fair.” Sean Hannity: “I was fair.” Stephen A. Smith: “I’m saying you could not have been more fair because remember you and I talked before that day and I was like, since we want to reveal our text messages, before the debate I was like: ‘Be fair. Be fair!’” Sean Hannity: “Your career’s on the line, that’s what you told me.” Stephen A. Smith: “I said, ‘The country is watching, you gotta be fair.’ I said, ‘You gotta strip yourself from the favoritism role and you gotta go down the middle and give him the platform’ and what did I say to you after the debate was over?” Sean Hannity: “You said, uh, I shocked the sh*t out of you.” Stephen A.

Smith: “I said, ‘The country is watching, you gotta be fair.’ I said, ‘You gotta strip yourself from the favoritism role and you gotta go down the middle and give him the platform’ and what did I say to you after the debate was over?” Sean Hannity: “You said, uh, I shocked the sht out of you.” Stephen A. Smith: “‘You shocked the sh*t out of me,’ I said, ‘I can’t believe it.’ I said you were fair. And I was like, that’s all you needed to do.” Credit: Mediaite

THIS ANSWER. “saying you won’t be the favorites in vegas. i saw you do this at least another two times: ‘we are not the favorites.’ do you think a change of mindset is needed?” lando: “no, i can say what i want, i can think what i want, i tell you what i always am, i always try and be as honest as i can be. if i don't think we're going to be quick, i don't think we're going to be quick. and i'm not saying i'm going to be 10th, i'm just saying i think it's going to be difficult to win. we were a long way off, just go and look at the data from last year, look at the racetrace, we were miles off. and there's been plenty of races where we've not been quick enough this year, so it's not like we've won every single race and you're expecting me to say those things. i'm just giving my opinion on ‘do i think it's going to be as easy?’ i won last weekend by 30 seconds, very, very easy. i won today by pushing a lot more, only 10 seconds, and max was probably the quickest out on track today. do i think that at a track that we've never been good at, we were very good here two years ago, we almost challenged max for the win, we've never been good in vegas. so why am i going to think, ‘yeah, it's going to be fine, whatever?’ i'm giving my opinion, i'm giving my honest opinion on how i think we're going to be. we've never been good there, so i'm not the most confident about going into this race. maybe i'll win, then we'll see. but i'm not going to lie and say ‘yeah, i'm very confident and i think it's going to be an easy weekend’ because i don't think that's how it's going to be. so no, i mean, you're very right to have your own opinion on what you think i should say and what i should not say and whatever, but i'll do what i like.”

Matthew McConaughey reveals the three words his dad said that changed his life “I said dad, I don't want to go to law school anymore. I want to go to film school and after about a 5 second pause, he goes, ‘Are you sure that's what you want to do?’ I reply yes sir” “Another long pause. Then I hear, ‘Well, don't halfass it’” “I remember just beaming, hopping up just like Yes! My dad not only said okay. The way he said don't halfass it, it was also, okay. Let's go big boy. Own that shit. Get some leverage. Get some horsepower behind where you're going. Go do it” “I remember to this day and I've learned this later I think from becoming a father, part of what I believe happened to him and why he said that to me that way on that call was the way that I asked him. I wasn't really asking. It was, ‘I don't want to go to law school, Dad. I want to go to film school.’ I didn't stutter. He heard his son saying this is what I want to do” “What I think happened to him in that moment is what I think any father, any parent loves. You raise your kids in a certain way and you give them a guideline, a ladder to climb and here's the guidelines and if you do it this way, you're most likely going to have some success in life and it'll work out for you and then when we do it that way, we can be proud parents” “But what do we really want to happen when our kids are out of the house and they're on their own? We kind of want them to call one day and go, ‘I'm breaking out. I'm going my own way.’ And as a parent, we go, as much as it may scare us, we're going, ‘Yes!’ I gave my kid the confidence and the courage and the foundation to say they're going to go their own way” “In a way, I think every parent honors and loves that moment. I heard my dad, when he didn't hear me stutter, when he heard me directly say what I said. I wasn't really asking him. Even though I was out of respect asking him, the way I said it, I wasn't asking him and I think he felt that” “Don't halfass it”

Jimmy Fallon says the hardest part of fame is knowing not everyone likes you “Getting rejection. Being told you're not funny. Haters. This was before Twitter and all that stuff, which is a different ball game that I wasn't ready for either” “You think it's just going to be, ‘Oh, this is cool. Everyone will be great.’ But not everyone's rooting for you. Some people want you to fail. People's jobs are to take me down and put bad press out” “That stuff I wasn't prepared for, overcoming that. Hating on you or saying you're not good. You don't think that's going to happen, but it will if you're successful because someone's not going to like you no matter what” “It's the worst. Absolutely the worst. I hate it. I want everyone to like me. I can't stand it. I go, oh my gosh, what can I do to make you like me?” “I think the answer is you can't. You can't make everyone like you. You just have to do what you do, do the best that you can at what you do, and be happy with yourself”

Nate Diaz says Charles Oliveira is at the top of his list for a UFC return, but explains why the timing wasn’t right: "It was hard to jump back in, something I tried so hard for so many years to get out of.

Back then, even when Gumayusi wasn't the starting player, it was his choice to go at the venue or not but he still chose to go because he thought it was important to be with the team and watch the matches. Q: It seems like it was tough when you were subbed out of the starting line up. Could you talk a bit more specifically about how you got through that period? Gumayusi: Usually, people say they “overcame” tough times, but lately my thinking has changed. I think that hardships aren't something you overcome, but they're something you endure. Q: On him going to the venue despite not being on the starting lineup back then Gumayusi: Actually, it was my choice whether to go or not. At first, it hurt, so I thought I didn’t want to go. But I realized that instead of thinking/dwelling on the situation negatively and doing nothing, it was more important to go there, be with the team and watch the matches. In the end, I think it was good that I went.

Stephen A. Smith questions whether LeBron James is resigned to the Lakers being done competing for championships. "There can be situation where, 'I'm going to go out there and bust my tail' ... But in the same breath, 'I like my life and I'm not looking to walk away and I'm not looking to get traded.' So it is what it is."
