When Shannon Sharpe stepped out with that contentious bag over a muscle tee, the frenzy was not calculated. It certainly wasn’t predictable that one bag would reignite his beef with Kwame Brown. But the retired NBA pro has fired off on that infamous TikTok video. And it’s definitely not pretty.

The NFL-pro-turned-analyst shared a TikTok on his trip to Total Wine And More for an event centered on his Le Portier Shay cognac. What looked like a normal update from Sharpe turned into chaos over his fashion statement. He was sporting a crossbody bag over formfitting attire. It started with another one of his nemeses, Antonio Brown taking it up a notch before Kwame Brown joined the chat.

Them jeggings or whatever the hell he got on too damn tight, especially if you going to couple it with a purse and a muscle shirt… the salesman told him it was unisex,” Brown said on his YouTube channel, ‘Kwame Brown Bust Life.’

Sharpe’s gait was mercilessly trolled online. Antonio Brown raised questions about Sharpe’s sexuality on X. Meanwhile Kwame said, “Just look at him getting out the car, it just look awkward.” Fans however are coming to the former tight end’s defense.

Several fans pointed out that Sharpe’s odd gait is the result of multiple hip, knee, and ankle surgeries. Kwame Brown also admitted that he understands when the “injuries pile up” and “when the hips and the knees go there.” However, it didn’t prevent him from instigating their year-old feud.

Kwame Brown vs Shannon Sharpe drags on

Both are quite vocal in their opinions and that clashes over the subject of LeBron James. Brown was critical of James’ performance in a game and said the late Kobe Bryant would’ve done better. Notorious LeBron fan, Shannon Sharpe wouldn’t stand for the comment.

Sharpe was on Undisputed sounding off on the former No.1 draft pick by then-Hornets-owner, Michael Jordan. “You’re supposed to be great. Really? Kwame, of all the people should never, ever question anybody’s greatness.”

Brown then put together another video slamming Sharpe as a “football-playing dummy,” who shouldn’t comment on basketball. He even took a dig at Sharpe’s infamous altercation with the Memphis Grizzlies squad, which the analyst later apologized for.

This is no longer related to Shannon Sharpe’s LeBron James craze. It’s just another day of Kwame vs Shay. If Sharpe touches on his viral moment, he might just take on one or both Browns for their comments.
