Stephen A. Smith and Shannon Sharpe are the new dynamic duo in sports talk television. When the latter left Skip Bayless and Undisputed, it was up in the air as to where he would land. However, it became clear that First Take was an obvious landing spot. Ultimately, many felt like Shannon could pair nicely with Stephen A. They are both huge personalities and they would combine for some truly incredible television. Thankfully, ESPN gave Shannon the bag, and neither party has looked back.
