Remember in middle school when the administration thought it was a good idea to put out a ‘Suggestion Box’ to ask sixth graders advice on how the school should be run? Seemed like a fool-proof idea at the time, ya know, asking kids who make fart noises with their armpits during school assemblies to make the tough decisions can only go swimmingly. But it didn’t. And except for the Steven Glansberg’s of the school throwing in suggestions in like ‘Healthier lunch options!’, the suggestion box was just a cornucopia of varying schlongs. Like this art piece.
Well, that’s basically the can of worms Stephen A. Smith opened when asking his 2.84 million Twitter followers to ask him questions Sunday afternoon.
What's up everybody. I'm here for the like the next 20 minutes. Any questions? Ask away? Might even do Periscope. Then, @FirstTake in the AM

The questions started off pretty tame, asking about U.S.A. basketball to preseason football. But, nothing good can last, something great will soon emerge, and it sure did.

Stop being ignorant. Grow up. Why put anyone in a position to answer a question like that. Are you a grown man or what?

P.S. After seeing this, I just put the family farm on Diaz. First-round submission. Never been so sure of anything in my life.
