Stephen A. Smith is a Cootie?

rrgirl, in We Wuz Robbed!:

as a kid, I learned when I lifted a rock in a hedgerow or pasture, cooties would scurry over shocking pale roots; the smell was musty and strange. broadcast media reminds me of those rocks. just below the surface, all kinds of strangeness churns and burrows away. whether it’s behind doors or under a rock, ugly stuff stays hidden but it’s all part of the ecosystem: something was decided weeks ago, someone made a deal and it took DP and KO off the air for a while. I believe with all my heart, they’ll be back, better than ever. ESPN, not so much.

OK, so it’s not what you meant. But I’m a tad delirious from DP Deficiency. I put the two together and it occurred to me that there is a resemblance:

But Cooties are much more serene and don’t yell all the time.
