Smith is on a lucrative deal at ESPN, “First Take” is facing a big challenge after co-host Molly Qerim left the show earlier this week. She ended her 10-year stint after contract talks reportedly fell through. Stephen A. Smith gets trolled by Emmanuel Acho for Molly Qerim announcementStephen A. Smith shared the news about Molly Qerim’s decision to end her 10-year partnership with ESPN."The details, quite frankly, are none of y’all’ business," Smith said. "It’s not as if I know all the details. It was a contract negotiation that was going on. ESPN certainly did not want to lose her. But in the end, she made her decision to walk away from the show effective immediately."And that story is for her to tell. Do I have an idea, of course I do. Am I going to share it with you? No. Because again that’s her story to tell.”Not everyone was satisfied with Smith’s explanation as Emmanuel Acho said the way it was shared felt off. He criticized Smith for being vague while still revealing just enough to get people speculating."Here’s my thing, though. Don’t tell us the details, then tell us you’re not going to tell us the details,” Acho said. “He said she abruptly resigned. That’s a detail. And then you’re going to say, ‘But don’t ask me the details because I’m not going to tell you all, that’s none of your business. Oh, and I don’t know the details.'”With ESPN offering little information and Stephen A. Smith’s comments, speculation of a bigger fallout behind the scenes is making the rounds.
