That's why the power of the remote control is so important. One push, no noise.

First Take is the worst show in the history of civilization that didn't feature Brad Garrett.

I was waiting for S.A.S.'s head to explode...

Now it's clear who I dislike more...

WTF? This is not awful announcing...this is pure comedy!

I like the "new Kobe" air quotes at the end.

Did I miss something? What exactly did Kobe "overcome?"

I have no idea. The only thing he overcame was his own ego.

I don't hate ESPN like other people do, but this is why they get a bad rep. Those two add nothing to sports or a sports conversation. Just two chimps at a zoo flicking turds back and forth at each other.

LOL at the 'Gasbag' label.

"Skating after prosecutors butchered their investigation" is not "overcoming so much," Stephen A. Smith. Mrs. Belvedere said it best at the end some inane argument between the two of them about Ozzie Guillen's cursing on First Take: "Bleep the both of you."

It's funny because at least SAS has some knowledge about the game of basketball, whereas Skip Bayless doesn't know shit, and probably doesn't even watch the games he comments on. They're talking about Kobe's MVP, and all he spouts off is the Celtics' record. He doesn't even mention KG's numbers, his impact on the team, his defensive intensity, NONE. If he argued all those points, at least it would ahve been a good MVP debate.
