Maybe not in the right thread but this thread got me remembering the old (original days) of The Best Damn Sports Show Period :to:

The first 2 years (I believe..I just know John Kruk and Michael Irvin left to ESPN at the time and the show went down hill) was the GOAT sports show besides TNT NBA

when it was tom arnold, irvin, kruk, john sally and the 2 other white guys

Whatever happened to Lisa Guerrero :noah:

Lee Ann Tweeden :noah:

Best damn sports show had the finest female sports anchors :noah:

Btw the show hasn't been the same since Jay Crawford moved up.

U really need someone who knows sports and has the ability to keep SAS and Skip on track.

The His and Hers podcast is barely about sports at all

Changing NNL to His and Hers (the TV version) makes no sense if they're gonna keep it a sports show

The whole numbers angle of NNL always seem forced and weird to me tho
It's basically First Take again with less interesting hosts :manny: Second Take

First Take < Cold Pizza

And No it's not the same show

Cold Pizza in 2014 circa would be so much better if they stuck with sports.

I don't really fukk with first take as much as I used to. SAS has really fukked the show up for me. All the gatdamn c00nin he's been doin and loud ass talkin in circles keeps me away from the show

Same here, haven't watched it since SAS returned from suspension

don't act like :skip: isn't part of the problem either.

the other issue, is the actual host (cari champion :cape:) isn't strong enough to control the show.

I think jamele hill is good at what she does. and michael smith is decent playing the sidekick role.

i'm going to keep saying it, the novelty of skip & this show were the 1st & 10 segments being mixed in with sports news and guest appearances - i forgot what year they moved from this to the full-on debate format, but skip's trolling isn't strong enough to sustain two hours of nonsense, and SAS as the permanent foe wasn't a good move either
