Essential The Official ESPN First Take Thread

[ISO]

Show was always absolute dog shyt

 

[SunZoo]

It sucks because I'm usually the one defending/enjoying First Take and I don't mind the promos from SAS. But I was trying to watch a clip about the Kobe/Bron shyt and it was just flat af. Max is cool but he ain't Skip.

Undisputed sucks to me because Shannon ain't SAS. Opinons on the racial shyt aside he's much better at his job than Shannon, I don't like listening to him talk especially when most of it is dikk riding Lebron.

Skip and SAS need each other, instead we got two shows that are splitting the energy up and leaving both underwhelming. And please keep Ray Lewis the fukk off tv.

SAS just full blown c00ning every day about Kaepernick

 

[woof]

Such glue that he's drawing 0.0s in key markets on FS1 and seen his social media imprint cut significantly over the last year, while FT got promoted to ESPN (and saw ESPN2 tank without it) without him.

 

[Conscious Pilot]

always talking about how he knows everyone who knows something.

 

[Supa]

I didn't realize how much Skip Bayless was the glue to that show but him and Stephen a were a great team together.

But over the past few years Stephen A increased the volume and showmanship of his debates and comments and it started to feel like pro wrestling promos watching him yell.

That's gotten so old...

But man I flip over to FS1 and Skip and Shannon Sharpe really have it going...

I havent looked at the numbers but i think First Take is on its last legs...

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I can't stand Shannon and used to not be able to stand Skip, but I agree. I rather watch FS1

100% right....Cacs told that ngga to take his schtick from 0-100 (minus the pro-black rhetoric)... Now he's c00nin it up at absurd levels.

People still watch first take

UNDISPUTED is way better not because of skip but bcz of Shannon

I love how he put that c00n ray lewis in his place

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Both of them shows are not good

 

[CanesMiamiLakers]

Skip took shots at people on espn the other day. I'm surprised it wasn't a thread on it

 

[Henry Orbit]

Undisputed is really good when they let Shannon and another ex-player that's on the panel that day talk football X's and O's breaking down games

 

[Silkk]

Undisputed is easily WAY better than First Take. First take does have better topics though.

All that Cowboys talk & excess amount of guests be so fukking annoying

 

[paidNfull]

I can't stand Shannon and used to not be able to stand Skip, but I agree. I rather watch FS1

Why you don't like Shannon? Outside of the stanning Lebron ...Shannon > SAS and I love Stephen A. Idgaf what yall say...yall love to hate...Besides that Kaep shyt what did SAS do to get called a c00n?

 

[I AM WARHOL]

They both suck.
I like Skip but he can be irrational.

Shannon literally doesn't understand the game of basketball. Honestly he only knows football.

Both are pretty good when it comes to the political aspects of the show.

Then for first take, SAS is a c00n and he threatens players like he has clout. Doesn't know anything other than basketball.

Max is just a very arrogant individual who isn't half as clever as he thinks. The whole vibe he brings is off putting. Plus Molly always interject
