Stephen A. Smith might want to take his own advice on not getting too enamored with Molly Qerim.
Recently, Smith expressed his desire to focus solely on sports and not be distracted by admiration for Molly Qerim and Kimberley A. Martin during Wednesday’s episode of “First Take.”
In a rant, Smith urged people to “stop drooling over Molly and Kim,” asserting that they are just “alright,” and he’s getting annoyed with friends and viewers who are overly focused on their appearances rather than the content of the segment.

Smith mentioned receiving texts during the show praising the women for their stunning looks, to which he responded, “They aight.”
Despite Smith’s protest, Molly Qerim and Kimberley A. Martin appeared to take the comments in good humor, acknowledging the compliments with light-hearted reactions. Martin even gave a wave to the viewers and admirers on her side of the split screen.
“To my boys, shut the hell up and listen to the debate element of the show and stop drooling,” exclaimed Smith as he concluded his rant.
Qerim joined in, playing along with Smith’s irritation. “Thanks Rodney. Thanks Chris,” Qerim quipped, acknowledging the friends who were sending distracting texts to Smith.
Despite Smith’s frustration, Qerim continued to jest about the comments, saying, “Who are the other people? I want to give them a shout.”
Smith’s complaint follows a series of recent awkward moments on the show.
