Lets be honest, First Take is HOT GARBAGE since Skip bounced...

[Optimus Prime]

Still the top show on ESPN2 and in top 10 of all sports cable TV. The only thing that beat it last Friday was the Olympics, NFL Preseason and a couple of Sportscenters:mjshrug1:

Olympics, Lions-Steelers, Raiders-Cardinals top cable sports TV ratings for Friday August 12, 2016
Olympics top cable sports TV ratings for Wednesday August 10, 2016

He's an old white man!

Stephen A likes to go to spots to drink 1 drink & chill or get a plate from somewhere. He's gonna run into folks or folks that know folks. Now Skip is Low key socially!...has anyone ever seen a pic of Ernestine!?!??... Nope.

So Stephen A. should stop saying things about players that he doesn't mean.

 

[J-Fire]

Yea that day made me lose a some respect for him. I used to look up to him as one of the better reporters back in the day when I would watch Quite Frankly as a kid.

It took on a life of its own...whoppie Goldberg discussing it on the view etc. I feel they should have reported...giving comments outside of football is loaded dice & Skip baited Stephen A regularly! Skip gave few hard stances on anything...he played ignorant white guy asking Stephen A questions on any social issue.

Kells is Ivy League. Bomani would be a better advisary than SAS. SAS is just a cartoon character. Lil to no substance at all. Kells and Bo could match wits.

Bo would be great but with his and hers they could never put SA and Bo together. It'd be good bc Bo isn't a "c00n" like SA. is why they wouldn't do it.

For a talker...funny guy... Stephen A is pretty good about separating that he's for ratings & usually calls player or reps when he makes bold statements.

First Take really fell off around late 2012 or so

Then this year they didn't even go to the NBA Finals which they usual do every summer

They probably didn't go because Skip doesn't like traveling. He was likely only finishing up through the finals as an act of good faith. I'm certain Fox would have paid whatever penalty he would have incrued if he said fukk it. So he probably had them by the balls.

Show was better when I watched it but Screaming A is such a fukkboy I don't see how anyone can watch that shyt daily he loves hearing himself talk and his theatrics are so corny lil man syndrome ass nikka

 

[Ronnie Lott]

Say what you want about Skip,but Skip was true to his self.Yes some of things he said you didn't believe but Skip was who he was.Max is smart and has boxing knowledge but personality wise he was no Skip.I bet that new Skip and Shannon Sharpe show becomes a hit

Skip was a ridiculous troll

What kind of analyst is he if he has to do that?

 

[the artist known az]

I think Stephen A is trying to flex his muscle more that Skip is gone. From time to time Skip used to put all of them in their place and SAS really couldn't say too much because he knew Skip ran the show. I notice now SAS tries to do the same thing to Max & Molly but more obnoxiously.

Stephan a had the misfortune of learning about the pc world we live in on the most watched sports show at the time. He would voluntarily say a lot of non pc stuff but it made sense and would tye in to sports back in the day.

Once bron won the chip and jalen came through and crushed skip's building first take hasn't been the same

The Jalen Rose First Take incident was probably the peak of First Take fukkery

 

[Master Teacher]

I'll be watching Skip and Shannon if I can. Stephen A doesn't stand on his word. I never heard Skip apologize for saying something about a player. He called Chris Bosh a Spice Girl to his face.

It's chris bosh lmao, skip was the reason nobody big time would come on the show because they would smack the shyt out of him

he gonna say that shyt shyt to chris bosh then cry like bytch when jalen called him water pistol pete lmao

jalen ethered his ass and proved he can't dish out it but can't take it

 

[Versa]

It was hot garbage when he was there too.
