During an episode of First Take, Chris Mad Dog Russo went on an impassioned rant after being forced into the hallway due to a power outage. He criticized ESPN's financial priorities, particularly focusing on the massive salaries being paid to hosts like Stephen A. Smith, questioning how the network could afford such payments yet still experience power issues. Russo's humorous but fiery comments highlighted frustration not only at his predicament but at ESPN's broader financial decisions, stressing the absurdity of the situation in a lively segment with fellow presenter Molly Qerim.
If they didn't pay Stephen A. $400 million, maybe they could pay their freakin' bills, ESPN!
I mean, goodness gracious, how dare you squeeze me and stick me in the hallway, with lights from 2000!
