First Take is great. I’m not a Kellerman fan, but I love when Will Cain or Damien Woody are on. Stephen A is the best, of course. Note that I watch First Take more for the comedy than for legitimate sports takes, though.

I certainly miss Skip, too. Undisputed is pretty good/funny at FS1, but nothing can stack up to the greatness of Stephen A and Skip together on Firat Take back in the day.

Re: ESPN Cleaning House

There might not be a sports personality I loathe more than Will Cain. to be honest, I've never listened to his show, only the commercials that come on when listening to ESPN podcasts.

The guy just seems like the biggest tool ever.

The thing is, I still think of Cain as a political commentator moonlighting as a sports personality LOL

Will Cain is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. I immediately deleted First Take yesterday when I saw him on and Molly, Stephen A., and Max out as they begin their transition to New York. He just comes off as arrogant.

Kellerman is bright sometimes coming off as a pseudo-intellectual, but he has that chemistry with Stephen A. I got tired of Skip and his blatant trolling and fanboyism and 30 minute Dallas Cowboy segments.

Re: ESPN Cleaning House

I remember not liking Jemele back when she was writing in Detroit, so not really sad she's gone...I was a big fan of Terry Foster back then too, so I think it's less race and just more her personality that rubs me the wrong way.

I don't mind the political aspects, but it seems like she always went there. Whitlock is somewhat the same way. He is such a blowhard now it's hard to take him seriously

Re: ESPN Cleaning House

How do y’all like Stephen A? He is the King of Clowns on that network.

I could tell you something about Stephen A. but yeah.....Descretion is the better part of valor on that one. Let's just say he does himself no favors with his antics.

To be fair, lets give Mel Kiper his due. I think he has held that distinction since 1994.

It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.
