ESPN did at one point. It was called Edge NFL Matchup, and that ended when the channel wanted to be like the sports version of modern MTV or broadcast Jerry Springer level of entertainment. Not only is it loud drivel, you see these guys flip flop their opinions and say outlandish shit just for the buzz. One that comes to mind is Skip saying he doesn't have sympathy for mental illness. Recently, SAS was being an ignorant asshole about Ohtani not speaking fluent English. Colin Cowherd does the same throw-shit-against-the-wall opinions and gloats when one sticks.
It's only good someone like Mark Cuban goes on a show and asks them to explain their opinions on a subject. When they can't, it's over.
Oh man, SAS and Perk on the same show?First take is just going to rotate talent, for ex: one day you get jalen, perk and so on.
Unfortunately yes, seems like Perk is carving out his hot take lane. But I just think different talents are gonna show up. Remember Stephen A only showed up once a week until skip vouched for him being his co-host.
His read of the Kaep situation is a textbook example.That's quite a take. Why do you say this? Not agreeing or disagreeing, but I'm very curious as to how you came to this. I guess I always had a different read on him…
Yeah but Unc Shay's greatness gets the best out of Skip. Skip is way less obnoxious and more willing to playfully troll on Undisputed, such as him getting in on Shay's props and his coming out of his alter ego, Drip Bayless.Shannon is a fun guy. Skip is too predictable at this point. Lebron sucks. Brady is Jesus. Go Cowboys. Yawn.
NFL Matchup still exist. It comes on pretaped at like 5am during the season. Tim Legler usually gets like 10 minutes to actually talk about x and o basketball on SVP's late night Sportscenter. Other than that I can't think of any actual analysis.Yep...matchup was great. Especially when Jaws would be the one breaking down tape.

the trio?
Brady is still a huge statistical outlier. Not a terrible take and he was not alone. Max just held on the take too long.Im sure its not too hard to find someone with equally bad hot takes, Hows that Tom Brady cliff looking?
yeah i'll walk that back a little bit. molly is just there for me. she can go or stay, i'm cool.
She barely gets time to talk. One of the reasons I'm not fan of the current format. Same with Undisputed, which is why Joy left.If they wanted to make the show better, they'd keep SAS and Max and replace Molly with literally any of the people who've filled in for her over the years. All of her replacements have actually contributed to conversations in a meaningful way, and discussions come off feeling a hell of a lot more fluid as a result.

I prefer the relaxed and equitable approach of SportsNation. But SportsNation is not a Hot Take show.
Jay Crawford was probably the best because they let him speak.
LolShe has nothing meaningful to say when she is given a chance to talk
Anyone been watching the show while SAS is on vacation? It's actually a decent show without him lol. SAS really brings the clownshow. Unfortunately, that's what gets the eyeballs.
I mean, we all hoped this would be the case...max kellerman.. the guy who said Tom Brady would "fall of a cliff" back in 2016. He further added that he would be a "bum in short order".
Oh my…..
lol um, The View is the number 1 daytime talk show in ratings and viewers atm.This is a like a host changing on The View, a show nobody actually watches. A tree falling in the woods with nobody around.
LOL.
One day he will and all the haters will come home to roost.max kellerman.. the guy who said Tom Brady would "fall of a cliff" back in 2016. He further added that he would be a "bum in short order".
Oh my…..
There was no evidence of that being the case. He was fresh off a super bowl win. That's the point of first take…to make these wild statements…and when it comes back to bite them, they backpedal and try to weasel out of their bold claims.
I would agree that for the format Skip worked better. But I got tired on the same Lebron/Cowboys nonsense. I catch some Undisputed clips on YT but I could never watch a full episode due to that nonsense.Max had anti-chemistry with Stephen A and it made First Take unwatchable. He also has no charisma. You need a strong personality to be on that type of show. That's why Skip and Shannon work pretty decently, as well as Skip and Stephen A before that.
Makes sense. That was LeBatard's show. It's going to ESPN plus and getting renamed btw.Looks like ESPN just killed Highly Questionable and gave Max the spot with a show called "This Just In"
"HQ" will be turned into an exclusively digital show for social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube) featuring the same commentators called "Debatable."Makes sense. That was LeBatard's show. It's going to ESPN plus and getting renamed btw.
