Are there any of you that watch show like First Take, PTI, etc?
Which of these tv personalities just annoy you to your core?
1. Rob parker- I wonder if he has any sports knowledge at all. Tom Brady has been done since 2011, James harden is the best player in the NBA, and the bears are the best team in the NFL. All came out his mouth today.
2. Nick wright- I'm convinced his mouth is LeBrons holster
3. Ryan hollins- pure clown
4. Max kellerman- he seems like he's there just to troll

The one thing I dislike about most of these sports-casters is that there very biased towards their favorite teams. Mike Francesca is a die-hard Yankee fan and it shows to much as he defends them as if he's the team owner.

Ill watch College Gameday on saturdays from time to time but other then that I rarely if ever watch a sports show. I really dont need to listen to some blow hard who likely never played a sport in his life tell me about what he thinks may or may not happen in a game.

I may tune in for a few minutes every now and then. I had been watching less of the debate shows but pretty much stopped in 2016 or so. Most are just not that knowledgeable and are just there for shock value. They may be somewhat knowledgeable about a few darling teams, but not many. You are critical of Goff and McVay at times and are right about it in my opinion . Do you ever hear ESPN/Fox guys be critical of them? I only hear praise, but I rarely listen. That's just 1 example but there are many. They just know stats or some mainstream skewed viewpoint like Aaron Rodgers is a great come from behind QB. I saw you post about Collins/LeBron/Bird in the NBA thread. I was going to comment but didn't want to get into a MJ/LeBron debate with others. If he said what you said, about Bird in particular, is asinine and it's normal for most of those guys.

Also, like Nivro stated above while I was typing mine, I will watch some of College Gameday. I really think those guys do a pretty good job. That's about it though.
I use to like NFL countdown (Boomer/TJ/Ditka/CC) but not this current crew. I would always listen to Mike&Mike too but not after 2016.

As a die hard Chicago White Sox fan, I'm so glad Hawk Harrelson retired.

I'm still trying to figure out how he(or was it Stone?) got no disciplinary action for calling Joe West a fatass on TV while Bob Uecker got suspended for parodying his "hosed" line from Major League. Anyway, pains me to say it but Bert Blyeleven. Ever since he got into the Hall he's been insufferable.

There's the newer guy on First Take, Will Cain. I swear he is the living embodiment of an internet troll who learned debate strategies only from watching political talking heads of a certain affiliation.
1. Say whatever dumba** thing he wants.
2. Yells the same thing repeatedly over others who are trying to speak.
3. Change the subject constantly so he doesn't get pinned down with facts.
4. Sit there with a proud, sh*teating grin like he's actually won the argument as everyone else's minds are melting at the sheer asininery of his statements.
That's literally the only thing he contributes to the show.

I will flip it over to NFL countdown for a few seconds just to see Sam Ponder cause she freakin hot. Usually once one of the other idiots start talking I have to change the channel though

Cowherd. Ever since he bashed Eddie Guerrero after Eddie died, I've had no respect for him. Can't stand Nick Wright.
On the other hand, I love Kyle Brandt. His excitement in the Super Bowl run last year was amazing.

If Joe Buck and Cris Collinsworth were calling an Eagles game together, I'd mute the TV and turn on 94.1 WIP.

Max Kellerman- Don’t really hate him , I just think he’s not very bright. Says a lot of dumb sh*t and is usually wrong about everything. Jason Whitlock + Damien Woody + Cris Carter (as a journalist not as a player)- grouped them together because I hate them for the same reasons. Always have to make everything about race when that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Can’t stand watching them and so many others because of this. Joe Buck- Don’t really hate him either, he’s just boring and doesn’t seem to put in that much effort to sound entertaining. When he does he’s not bad. Will Cain- Just comes off as a total douche. Not a single likeable character trait. Nick Wright- Never seen somebody ride an athlete the way this guy rides LeBron. He’s not the only one, but he’s the most annoying one. Colin Coward (spelled it that way on purpose)- He’s a clown. At least people like Skip Bayless are entertaining because they’re obvious trolls, but Cowherd comes off as completely serious and seems to genuinely believe whoever doesn’t agree with his opinion is an idiot and treats them as such. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the guy be right about anything. Has a massive ego and even the set of his show proves that. He’s up on his big podium while the guest sits alone on the couch 20 feet away from him as he looks down on them. He’s obviously very biased toward LA sports teams and drinks the “Every free agent at big trade target to LA” kool aid. Oh and his comments about Sean Taylor were ing disgusting. Loved seeing Baker Mayfield put his dumb ass in his place. Would love to see somebody else do the same.

I've never liked Joe Buck. Terrible announcer in my book.
And yeah Cowherd is a joke.

Cowherd Joe Buck Cris Collinsworth Stephen A. Will Cain Skip Bayless 85% of the time
On the flip side... Randy Moss and Shannon Sharpe I find extremely entertaining
