Yes, I watch First Take. Not because I take it seriously, but because I believe its great entertainment watching two men say crazy thing after crazy thing.
But this takes the cake. For those of you who missed the circus this morning:

First Take panelists Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless continued to discuss the Ray Rice suspension on this morning's episode, and Smith seized on the opportunity to say some deeply stupid things about the responsibility women have to not provoke men into violently attacking them.
This is just a train wreck, and Stephen A. doesn't seem to realize just how dumb his monologue is until it's way too late. His central point here, to which he keeps returning after throwing out caveats about how domestic violence is not OK, is that if you are a woman who doesn't want to be beaten by men, you should make sure to do your part by not giving them a reason to do so.

I will say their are some crazy girls out there...some that will make you want to pull your hair out. That being said, it is no excuse to beat one.

Just don't take it seriously, and you'll enjoy it 100%.
Had to post this though because of the sheer stupidity.

Sounds like a Taliban philosophy.

Taken a little out of context and not quoted correctly makes a bit of a difference here.
The point he is making is a good one.
Do we not remember Beyonce's little sister swinging at Jay-Z and him doing nothing? If that would have been an athlete - probability is that girl gets the shite beat out of her. So how about we not do that women? It's not as stupid as people are making it out to be..
ETA: At the same time as he tells women to think before they act like that - he tells men there is no excuse. He's not contradicting himself, he's telling both parties to be responsible.

what I've tried to employ the female members of my family, some of who you all met and talked to and what have you, is that again, and this what, I've done this all my life, let's make sure we don't do anything to provoke wrong actions

On a mobile so can't post a link to the Mark Cuban thing but basically goes on and details Skip's entire premise and methodology. It's brilliant and it's made me like the show more. I basically watch in order to decipher when and where Skip's idiotic premises come in to play. But you're right. Don't take it so seriously. Haven't seen this woman beater thing, but that's crossing in to serious territory and I'm surprised they are talking about it.
