First Things First (on FS1, though, I have never watched it anywhere other than on YouTube)
w/ Nick Wright, Chris Broussard, and Kevin Wiles. Great show, all of these guys are good and they have great chemistry.
Nick has some outlandish takes every now and then, which feature highly disingenuous arguments, especially about Brock Purdy and Michael Jordan. But he's mostly okay.
Nick Wright is an idiot. A higher profile version of Grant Cohn. He is so far in the bag for the Chiefs that he can't see straight. I don't know how sports shows come up with these guys, Wright, Broussard, Stephen A. Smith, the list goes on and on, a bunch of loudmouths whose only real experience of sports has probably been watching from the stands. I think Orlovsky is kind of a tool as well, but at least he played. But then again, I find the whole sports talk show experience kind of annoying, especially when those guys go up to the "big screen" to illustrate a play. It's like all the producers tell them the same thing. be 'animated, show your enthusiasm". so they end up jumping around like a bunch of clowns yelling at the top of their voices, like Emmanul Acho. "Media", spare me.
