Kevin Wildes is legitimately mad that he got pranked by Nick as he had Matthew Stafford at the top of Mahomes mountain instead of Drake Maye

new FS1 show, "FIRST THINGS FIRST" w/ Nick Wright
- Thread starter jadillac
- Start date
I know First Take gets betting ratings, but First Things First is ten times better as a show. The chemistry between everyone is near perfect, and you don't see yelling for half of the show.

They trying they best to fukk up the show with the cac Danny Parkins or w/e though. Luckily we get a regular time with the og crew before they force his bullshyt into the show.

I honestly don’t understand why Danny is on tv. Dude has negative charisma.
Nick threw his coffee boy a bone, simple as that.
Bright spot is he always has Greg Jennings and/or Willie Colon with him for the last half hour when the main crew leaves, so I don't mind a few brehs getting an extra check

Chiefs Lose
Ravens Lose
Ready to hear Nick and Brou juelz about their team losing and Wildes basking in it.
Show even pops up hours early on the pod feed
I start it and it's fukking Danny Perkins and the b team.
I dont want to hear that cac's bullshyt normally, why the hell do they think I want to hear that shyt instead of the regular crew
I turned that shyt off so quick

This show is worse than first take. Most of their takes are biased or they simply ride the wave of whatever is trending. Damn near all of these sports shows suck and a lot of the podcasts are not better. shyt is stale. Everyone is trying to find a niche to say some shyt to go viral.
The show is for entertainment purposes only. It's not to be taken seriously. These guys are mostly playing characters giving these takes and if you tune in to get real legit takes and real debate you're watching the wrong show.
Completely agree.
Open to changing my mind as time goes by, but he doesn’t seem to fit too well.
The problem is a lot of people take them seriously. They control narratives on both sides. They build athletes up for no reason then tear them down when they're wrong. And they're wrong more times than not. It's insufferable. The media is why people who have never seen Michael Jordan play speak like he just retired. And they never admit when they're wrong. Colin Cowherd presents himself as someone who is a sports zen master but is constantly wrong. Then they reinforce their bullshyt with podcasts.

Your summary reads like someone who never actually watched FTF and just look at clips or some shyt.
Anyone who follows the show knows it's a chill fun show. They know when shyt is jokes.
They all admit their biases to their teams/guys. They discuss the shyt openly.
They also admit when they are wrong. Hell they cant wait to pull receipts and shyt and point out when each of the 3 are wrong.
Your summary reads more for First Take, not FTF.
I agree with the individual you quoted.
You're making a huge assumption that the average viewer has the media literacy to understand it's a joke, chill, and fun show.
They also regurgitate their talking points on FTF on other FS1 shows, Nick's podcast, and Colin's podcast...presenting it like journalists/experts/etc
These goofy talking points are now widespread
Like Acho from the now-cancelled "The Facility", it doesn't take much for these guys to get voting credentials in the NFL/NBA, impacting who gets MVP/All-Pro/All-NBA/etc

If the average viewer isnt treating these shows like wrestling(ie realize that all this shyt is for clicks/views) that's on the viewer
I've listened to Nick's pod here and there. Nick on his solo pod with his son isnt the same Nick on FTF because that is a character specifically for the FS1 channel.
Like I said in my post, FTF has no issue admitting they are wrong or their biases. So a large chuck of that poster's complaints dont apply to FTF.
Acho - is trash and has always been trash. He's only halfway decent when he is breaking down film. Other than that he shouldnt be taken seriously.

It does because their social media clips usually gets more views than a full segment.
For the most part, those clips does not include the context, them admitting they're wrong or their biases.
The recent clip of Mangeni shytting on Shedeur sounds crazy...The full-segment ain't no different.
We agree they shouldn't be taken seriously.
But the public takes them seriously.
The NFL still takes Acho seriously. He's an AP-Voter.
