Steven A Smith CHECKS Malika Andrews

Brother Stephen A, just saw Malika Andrews live on television. I couldn't help but make a video about this. He said in New Mirrors news reports that it was a consensual relationship that violated the organization's policy, so only he is in violation of the company's policy, the woman who chose to have a consensual relationship with him is not in rape, they mention it and put it on Front Street, we don't know who she is, but what about the other woman within the Celtics organization that has been victimized because wrong assumptions have been made because of her involvement, if you knew exactly who is the one that would ease the worries of all the other women whose names have been paraded in the streets, what about them, aren't you thinking about that?

Here we are, we're putting him out to pasture and again send him an email. You don't care, he can't defend himself. Your actions are your actions. Nobody fights more for black coaches than me, but I tell you that a fire would have been justified or you continue. him but keep him but suspend him by the way not only suspend him but make the suspension indefinite you ruined his career well Molly, thank you if I could start with this Stephen A first with all due respect, this is not what this is about. Pointing fingers, what became clear to me at this press conference is that we don't have all the information here.

It was frustrating to me that the Celtics refused to elaborate or elaborate on what exactly the rule violation was that led to us. At this point, I just want to get that out of the way first, but to answer your questions, I think what caught my attention is that so-called Twitter rampage, uh BS, is the word he used to say that women were dragged unfairly to this. Within the Celtics organization you could see that Stevens was visibly upset by this and I also found it disgusting and unnecessary for people to bring up names and images of women, that is simply not a fact, pure speculation, and to me that is which stood out, but the Celtics and the organization could have done more and less than done more before this yesterday, they could have taken that responsibility in this press conference.

I understand that there were legal parameters within which they had to operate for everyone involved and I appreciate the fact that they brought in the outside Council and did a thorough organization. I think that's something that was clearly necessary in this situation, but the fact that we were able to continue all day and the fact that we're sitting here debating. whether anyone else should have been suspended or not we are not here Stephen A to further blame women that is not why we are here oh god here we go with the feminist first of all let me be very clear I don't appreciate where you are.

I'm going to say that, I'm not blaming anyone, but email yourself Joker, he deserves the fact that the man said he deserved to be fired, if he was going to be fired, if you're not going to fire him, then no. you do it. Don't fire him, my problem is that all this is being publicized, what I'm trying to say is just excuse me, excuse me, I heard you, he said, you're not going to talk too much, you're the one telling me to stop. shows that it's not happening, okay, that's nothing more, number two, I already said he deserves to be fired or he deserves to be there and handle it internally and privately if you're not going to handle it privately if you go.

Advertising it like that obviously makes everyone want to know, well, who are the parties involved? Well, you haven't been with Smith in Boston and other women pointing out the fact that there were women who were wrongly implicated in all of this. It's a disservice to them. I didn't come out with a report about a consensual relationship. I didn't come out with a report ahead of time leaking that we were going to suspend it for the year they did that and my point is Considering how pervasive this type of thing has existed in professional sports for many years, my point is that, excuse me, make sure To handle it the same way it's always been handled, I could have fired him and then we could have speculated. until the cows come home but he's gone but to keep him there keep him employed but at the same time suspended for a year then also that year is indefinite that's the problem I have no one is trying to protect email udoku and certainly no one is trying to protect is to vilify the women involved or something.

I'm talking about how things on this topic are typically handled from an HR perspective from an organizational perspective that is not consistent with what we've seen over the years, that's the only point I was trying to make. that he wasn't trying to attack anyone and if anyone deserves to be attacked it's Udoku's email for putting himself in this position. I have made it very clear. I'm just talking about the older ones and everyone else they know. the kind of thing that's going on you didn't say anything about anyone else I'm not talking about you I'm talking about them they didn't say anything about each other all the other times this happened but now when it comes to him, it's all over the place, that's it my problem.

Look, she thought she could just go on her show and talk to him anyway because she's a woman and she's used to men bowing down to her and you know, all these weaklings. Beta men who just sit there and take it and no, those days are gone, men aren't sitting around listening to one-way aggression, okay, you want equality, that's equality, don't talk to us any way, we'll talk the same way, The energy that you give us is the same energy that we will give to yours, but notice how she tried to make it as if women were the victims in this, as if men were automatically a bad boy and women are, you totally know it. innocent and they shouldn't be, you know his name shouldn't be there and you know we're not here to blame the women anymore, obviously they weren't blamed at all.

I'm the only person they blamed was the man. So we have a right to ask questions like that, so all they're trying to do is make it seem like the women were victims, like he was some kind of sexual predator or something, but the reality is it was a consensual relationship. . if anything they should have fired him and not revealed it you know what happened or they should have if they suspend him then don't publicly say well you know what happened he just violated the terms of the team policies and that could have been the end.

Yeah people would ask questions but you know it's already out there so of course people will want to know who the woman is and why she wasn't punished but yeah I can understand if it was like you know she used this power for you know, having sex with someone and then giving them a promotion or something. I could understand him being the bad guy in that, but that would justify him being fired, not getting suspended, so I can understand a woman being a victim there, uh, if you want to use the victim narrative for something like that, but also from that, you know if it was a consensual relationship and it wasn't like he was using his power as leverage, you know, then both. he should be punished, I mean that's it, if he violates team policy then they should both be suspended or fired or something, I digress.
