Stephen A. Smith claps back at Dr. Umar Johnson for 150,000 lashes take regarding Jerry Jones

May 2024 · 4 minute read

Stephen A. Smith is back in the headlines and the reason is again a controversial take of his which has resurfaced and this time with a punishment of 150,00 lashes for him. As Dr. Umar Johnson believes Stephen A. Smith deserves a hundred and fifty thousand lashes for defending the owner of the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League, Jerry Jones for a controversial photo of his.

The controversial photo has Jerry Jones standing with a group of young white men preventing Black students from integrating at North Little Rock High School, Arkansas in 1957. For that many have criticized Jones and labeled him as a racist. But Stephen A. Smith has a different opinion and like always has said it out fearlessly.

Stephen A. Smith believes the criticism is just an attempt to eradicate Jerry Jones. As at that time, Jones was just 14-15 years old and now after 65-66 years, it’s just senseless to cancel him for that photo. Also, SAS mentioned that he’s a big fan of Jerry Jones while further defending him.

Dr. Umar Johnson didn’t like this act from Stephen A. and on his recent appearance at “The Breakfast Club,” called out the veteran analyst for defending Dallas Cowboys’ owner. Johnson started his take by pointing out all the controversial actions of Jones like: never hiring a black coach, opposing players on his team to protest against police brutality and never standing up against racism.

Further, Dr. Umar Johnson went on to discuss the controversial photo and brought out a chain of events that happened during that time (around September 9th, 1957) and claimed Jerry Jones to be lying about that photo in his defensive stand and replies over it. But Umar didn’t just stop there as he also brought Stephen A. Smith in for defending Jones.

Dr. Umar Johnson criticized Stephen A. Smith for defending and giving a pass to Jones only because the unfortunate incident happened 65 years ago. Further, Johnson replying to a question: “How many lashes for Stephen A. Smith?” said: “Stephen A. Smith is probably up to a hundred and fifty thousand lashes right now for his c**ning.” This didn’t age well with the veteran analyst as he recently called Dr. Umar Johnson out on the latest episode of his podcast, “Know Mercy”.
