(Video) Sports: Kevin Hart Made An Absolutely Hilarious Appearance On First Take
Today is Stephen A Smith’s birthday and the crew helped him celebrate in hysterical fashion by making sure to have Kevin Hart on as a guest today. Every minute of his time on air was hilarious and that is no exaggeration. He started it off by gifting Stephen A with a Tim Tebow Mets jersey, which if you know anything about the show, Stephen A respects Tebow and calls him his “friend” but really can’t stand to talk about him. Even though it was Smith’s birthday, Kevin proceeded to give co hosts Molly Qerim and Max Kellerman some very nice headphones while Stephen A just sat there in shock. Things only got funnier from there.

Birdman made the rounds at ESPN yesterday, where he appeared on a couple different shows to talk about his own new show, “Music Moguls” which airs on BET, following the lives of himself, Snoop, Damon Dash and others but he was also there to talk sports.

He spoke on the way Pat Riley handled the whole situation in allowing Wade to leave, which quickly drew comparisons on twitter to the way Birdman operates with Lil Wayne. He wasn’t done there however. He also went on “The Dan LeBatard Show With Stugotz”, where he touched on the situation in OKC, which led him to call Durant “Disrespectful”.
