First Things First is the funniest sports show I’ve ever seen. Nick is annoying and a bully but does give good analysis and thoughtful takes. Chris Broussard is the oldest of the trio who provides cogent analysis and wisdom. Kevin Willdes, a national treasure, gentleman, and the mair affaire is who truly boosts the ratings. He is the best football analysis I’ve ever seen. He’s also the funniest, and most handsome of the trio.
Show is entertaining but Nick is just a fanboy who loves Mahomes and LeBron. No matter what he will always hype them up. Gets a little repetitive and redundant, but I get it. He get the lovers and the haters to watch. Like I said, entertaining, but don’t come here to see any real analysis. Just some dudes with “good chemistry” riffing off each other.
Nick needs to lay off the Chiefs and the Lakers. Thats all he talks about. Patrick Mahomes. Having an analysis show that focuses on the Chiefs seems really stupid if I'm a Fox exec. Most people don't like the Chiefs. Mahomes Mountian he left Mahomes on top with sub standard stats. He is a fan boy. Other two, I like. Nick is just a Colin Cowherd. Fan boys.
Best chemistry on TV!!!!
I love this show. It is a perfect balance of real dialogue and fun gimmicks. I hope this cast and show never leaves the air!
They have the best chemistry on TV that’s parallel what inside the NBA on TNT. I love the show.
Hands down the best show on FS1. Nick is a superstar, and Chris/Wilde's are irreplaceable as well.
Legitimately an S tier show. I've never been a big fan of these sports talk shows and would usually watch clips of shows like First Take when Max was there, The Jump when Rachel Nichols was hosting, and Undisputed when Shannon was there. But First Things First is the only Sports talk show where I will sometimes tune in live for the A block. Nick, Wildes, and Brou have amazing chemistry, and the regular guests Greg Jennings and Eric Mangini have good chemistry with these three as well.
The guys are great. I didn’t think I would like the show without the hostess but the show snaps along & Nick is great…ps…I don’t miss him Tuesday on the Herd… great job guys!!!
This is by far my new favorite sports show! WAY better than anything on ESPN, including First Take. Discovered it by accident after watching "The Herd" about a year ago, and it is must see TV for me now. My only issue is with Nick...Give Brock Purdy and the Niners some love.
