Stephen A. Smith is famous for disliking the Dallas Cowboys and their fans.
CNN’s Chris Wallace sat down with Smith this week to ask Why?
Smith appeared on Wallace’s talk show, Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?, which streams Sept. 20 on Max. The veteran journalist cut right to the chase.
“One of the things that people who watch you know is that you have some favorite targets,” Wallace said. “And one of them is a certain football team that plays in Dallas.”
Wallace played a video montage of Smith dissing the Cowboys and their fan base, including a clip where he called them “the most disgusting, nauseating fan base in American history.”
“Why do you hate the Cowboys so much?” Wallace asked, much like a therapist working with a patient.
“Because their fans are truly the most nauseating, disgusting fan base in American history,” Smith said, perfectly echoing a point he made in one of the video clips. “If they went 1-16 and the season ended on Jan. 5 at 7 p.m., by 7:15, they’d be going, ‘You know we’re going to win the Super Bowl next year, right? This is who they are.
“They can pass gas, and they’ll tell you it’s perfume. This is what they do. So you just get so sick and tired of listening to the misery. I don’t know, as a sports guy … I don’t know if anything brings me more pleasure than seeing Cowboys fans miserable.”
Smith also spoke out on athletes who smoke weed and other topics.
