I be seein dat pussy bounce from seat to seat shaking hands like he the Pope en shit. I'm like dis nigga. Howard Eskin knows he a piece of shit. He stay quiet.
Man I'm glad that I'm not the only one.... i had thought about making a rant thread just on that show. It makes me Fucking sick to my stomach. It's a football show. Just give me insight about football.. I don't need to hear someone say every 5 seconds "I'm putting him on my fantasy team." "He's on my fantasy squad"... ughhh
Why do you only have 1 former player? Why do you have gawd damn skits? Know your audience... the only people watching NFL network at 6 in the morning are die hard football nuts that only want to hear about football and if you don't have any stories.. don't trying to force a three hour waste of show down everyone's throat. I'd much rather watch any classic game from last year played in its entirety at that time... then this 3 hour crap.
Normally... I turn to NFL network the morning after the draft for insight and analysis but I'm not touching it Friday morning and it's killing me. Killing me that this show sucks up so much air time... Gawd damn I hate this show with all my soul. All of it..
Why can't we have path to the draft or total access in the morning... seriously why can't we have Morning Total Access.
I wouldn't have a problem with it,if they had more players and cut done those skits they do all the time.
I don't understand,why they got rid of NFL AM.All they needed to do was tweak here and there and it was all good,but it's better than that bullshit they have now.
Just don't understand,how these companies fuck up a good thing...
I never thought I'd say this but I'd watch a taped recording of NFL AM over this shit.
Hopefully none of these reporters try and pull a "Vester" in ESPN's offices..
That show is for the casual NFL fan who isn't really into the in depth nuances of the game. They wanna see "fellow fantasy players like them (un athletic caucasians) and the articulate but hip former negro football player who can give his insight from a "non threatening" perspective.
Can't have a nigga like Marshawn Lynch breaking down the game in the AM. He'd terrify viewers.
I worked for a company after they did a round of buy outs and layoffs. In the the aftermath they did not update the employee contact list. One night we had a serious issue come up and we had to call people on the list at 1am in the morning. One of the dudes called some chick that got laid off a few months back. And let's just say that she was not too happy when she answered the phone.
He probably is saying told you so to everyone.
And even though these two don't have their own show, they got out when the getting was good and assumed similar contributor roles as they did at ESPN.
you aint say NOTHING wrong fam...just real talk.
and that's what HE gets for basically help introduce First Take to the world...
homeboy deserved a hazard pay pension for doing that alone

The problem is that.... why would the casual fan be paying the extra money to get NFL network. It's not like it comes with basic.
It doesn't? It's free with Verizon fios. You have to pay for NBA tv.
It's not free with Xfinity...
Side note... I tried watching Good Morning Footballs draft coverage for 30 seconds and I just couldn't do it. Why do they have to be so loud.
They are talking about the layoffs on Mike and Mike and they are talking about Jason Stark. I mean 15 years of his weekly trivia questions.
I'm thinking that ESPN name on their resume will carry some weight.
Obviously a lot of they are cutting ties
Seems like im in the minority here who likes the show...during the offseason they have more filler but they usually have more highlights and analysis during the season.
i've watched all the morning shows NFL network have had throughout the years and this is the best group they've had imo.
Guests are usually on point..steve smith was ill yesterday
Burleson is one of the most polished and engaging former players on the air, i was bugging when i saw kyle brandt a.k.a "lyle" on there..always entertained me when he produced the jim rome show and guest hosted. Peter shrager is there from an insider/ columnist perspective, and kay is there for white boy eye candy and fantasy football perspective.
One of the only football news programs that my wife actually enjoys ---and that may be exactly what NFL networks goal is..entertaining and drawing in casual fans as well as the diehards. Probably a large part of why their nominated for an emmy
They're hoping the casual fan buys the package. They already got the hardcore fans' money. Lol
They want to grow their fanbase all over different demographics (Women, International fans, Millennials, WOMEN, etc.)
how is playstation vue? buffering issues? any other issues? i've been hearing good and bad and i just saw youtube got their own live tv streaming service too
I was fired on a Friday, someone called me on Sunday night because someone called out. I put on my clothes, went into work, clocked in, and then told the supervisor that I had been terminated Friday.
Chris Carter and Broussard didn't leave ESPN, ESPN got rid of them (didn't renew their contract). I'm sure they would have stayed if they had a choice.He probably is saying told you so to everyone.
And even though these two don't have their own show, they got out when the getting was good and assumed similar contributor roles as they did at ESPN.

They have lost over 20 million customers in 4 years. The gossip is that they get paid $6.50 per subscriber.
Yeah, but there aren't enough sports networks to absorb all these people that have been fired.
FS1 has only been around a couple years and if they're smart they won't make the same mistake ESPN did and get too big for their own good.
A lot of these people are going to have to switch careers and get out of the sports TV industry altogether.
I absolutely hate this about Fios. I had NBA TV free for my first year and then they took it away and tried to get me to pay $10 a month for it with some other channels I didn't want. I haven't watched any NBA TV since October.
ESPN is Disney's biggest profit contributor.
Really? Okay, I had no clue. I thought they were losing money.
