All of these guys are just trying to create a successful career and doing what is necessary, that often involves developing some kind of on air persona. That is the business and the reality is that often the most obnoxious and opinionated ones get the highest ratings. I have seen Steven A. Smith several times and he is nothing like he is on air. I am more interested in the games and really do not pay much attention to them unless they are an ex Viking like when Moss and Carter were on.
