Stephen A Smith has never been shy about the fact that he doesn’t follow some sports as closely as others. Sure, Smith is right in his wheelhouse talking about the NBA or the NFL, and he loves to break down boxing matches, but there are plenty of sports out there, and despite the fact that it seems like he’s away for 27 hours every day, Smith’s focus isn’t always on a handful of them.
