The NFL 2023 season has fans on their toes. With the Monday Night Football game taking place, the NFL season ends its week 6 game. It has been thrilling for everyone but the Dallas Cowboys. After a humbling 42-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Cowboys need to amp up their game. It looks like the Monday Night Football game can be the only hope for the Cowboys fans. As the Cowboys face the Los Angeles Chargers, live at the stadium, someone seems to benefit from the Cowboys’ misery.
The host of ESPN’s First Take show, Stephen A. Smith is the man with one of the most entertaining commentaries. With his amazing facial expression and top comments, he makes sure that fans enjoy his take. But if there’s one thing he hates the most, it is “can’t stand a Cowboy fan.” As the Cowboys lost to the 49ers, Smith gained a lot. Looks like he has earned ten grand, live at the stadium from Marcus Spears.
