Essential The Official ESPN First Take Thread

[Optimus Prime]

Give ESPN some credit, what other tv show/network would let 4 Minorities (3 black, 1 Other?) host a sports show for 4 hours talking nothing but NBA? Never seen it

Bomani on Howard

"Why is everyone so sure he wants to go to Brooklyn? I know that's what he said..."

Usually when someone says something, it gives everyone else cause to be sure that's what they want

It's Dwight though. He SAID that loyaltly is what made him re-sign in Orlando.

I'm 100% convince that Rob Parker is a complete retard. I mean literally. He really is stupid. Horrible debater. Anyone can destroy him in an argument. Only thing is, he'll keep coming back with basic arguments. He provides no insights what so ever. That nikka be pissing me off yo.

Yep.

And Bomani Jones ain't any better. He's a pompous ass who thinks he knows ere'thing, that type you'd smack fire from in person. nikka ain't nothin' but a buck-o-five in person, too....'ol itty-bitty ass nikka...

I been saying this for months. And dont give the credit to ESPN, give it to Skip. People wanna hate on dude, but he's the braun behind that show....it's his show so to speak and he determines who is on there everyday. He makes sure there's nearly nothing but minorities on that show debating him and/or as the guest hosts/fill ins. It's probably been a year or more since anyone other than a minority was sitting across from him.

And he could easily get random black local sports journalists that he could make look bad on TV, but everyone on there can hold their own in a debate against him and more often than not come out on top, I think.

I can't watch First Take like that if Rob Parker or Bomani Jones or Jemelle Hill is on it. All 3 of them together? Nahhhhh.

I'm about Black Excellence, not Black Annoying nikkas.

Rob Parker might be my least favorite person they have on that show.

 

[MicIsGod]

I had to come to this thread after todays show. If that wasn't some of the worst analysis of the NBA offseason..
nikkas were completely clueless
