Doug Flutie is on first take talking about Tebow. Actually a very watchable segment. They touch on pretty much all the arguments for and against Tebow. What he needs to work on...why the % completions are possibly so low, reading defenses etc etc....it seems to be a fairly impartial segment depending on how much value you put on Fluties ability to eval a QB

Skip Bayless is bringing his Tim Tebow bromance to Denver.

The ESPN talking head is coming to town to broadcast First Take, which airs on ESPN2, from 8-10 a.m. on Friday from Jackson’s Sports Bar in LoDo, across from Coors Field.

The live taping is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 7 a.m.

I have been loving First take recently. Screamin A finally gave in last week and agreed with Skip...It was priceless.

Yea, i caught a show (probably first take) with Bayless and some rapper was on there and all he could do was try and insult Skip personally about his views on Tebow. I thought it was pretty low class even though Skip took it in stride.

most of the time after the Monday episode(which actually has some decent analysis sometimes) this show is basically the springer show...I was actually surprised how level headed and in depth Flutie got without Steven A(who didn't appear to like what he was hearing) or Skip(who I am sure thought Tebow should get more praise) going beserk

Gotta wonder sometimes how much of this Tebow hate by the media is contrived. There is a segment on Youtube where A is yawning, looking at his phone, etc while Skip is talking. They seem to have to play both sides to increase the hype and clicks and mag sales and Nielsons, and and and.

Not to mention the article on Jaws and Gruden prepping for shows/MNF with canned lines (basically lies about their true feelings) to make the show "interesting".

It was Joe Budden North. Solid rapper amazing lyrical ability and his punchlines are crazy.

Anyhow He did sound like He knew a thing or two about sports. And his comment about Tebow where he was asked if he is the solution down the road for the Broncos he said "No, because the Broncos brain trust doesn't even think so". I disagree by the way with that comment but just goes to show you how the sports fans outside of Denver think of the situation. And again people who only see the stats and then SC highlights automatically say Tebow was piss poor for 3 quarters and that is absolutely wrong. I doubt they sit and watch a whole game.

That's the reason I like Sanders on NFL Network. When they have a SH*** game he will say IT.

I missed the first segment, caught it on the replay. They had DT saying that they were practicing a more up tempo offense yesterday to try to figure out why they were starting so slow....may come out faster next week ?

Stephen A. Smith delivers his opinions the exact same way a porn star delivers her lines in a T & A flick. Honest to god, the first time I watched him, I thought he was a former football player who was made retarded by hits to the head. (turns out this is not true) Now every time I watch him be "demonstrative", I can't stop laughing.

I don't think he realizes he's actually imitating the same gestures and behaviors basement-dwellers gain through their lack of human interaction. I'm seriously. Go to omegle. You'll find fat, white versions of him all over the place.

Skip excludes the defense and is really bias of the effort given by the Defense. He cuts people off when making a point, and sort of reminds me of a rush limbough type of shock jock. I heard Cris Carter tell Skip, "I played in the NFL and you didn't".. Skip replied "It doesn't matter if you played in the NFL, how many Rings do you got?"... I thought CC was going to drop kick Skip on national television. I think Skip is an idiot armed with nothing but forth quarter stats, and forgets about the defense.

Way to support your 7-1 QB.

Remind me to never nominate you for fan of the year.

Skip has been the only vocal backer of Timmy for quite some time.

Skip Bayless is a great man.

If this is an example of your mentality, you are likely going to have quite a bit of trouble. Did you know about the Broncos before Tebow was drafted?

Forgot who it was, but some idiot said the Patriots D was somehow going to beat our offense by forcing turnovers? I really don't understand how that was allowed to fly when we've been exceptional in avoiding turning the ball over aside from last week to an elite Bears D.

I think it was that buffoon, Jon Ritchies with that dumb Frank Mir facial hair. He had no comeback to Bayless so he just through that out there.

I saw it and I'm actually embarrassed of the fans on First Take.

There would have been several times I would have booed Skip Bayless and the rest of the Tebow jersey wearing fans. If Stephen A Smith would have asked who I respected more then my answer would have been a very very loud John Elway!!!

It had to of been rigged....I dont buy true Broncos fans being like that.


Other than that I do enjoy watching the show. But don't compare Tebowner to the Duke.

You truly are beautiful, all BS aside. You remind me of an ex-girlfriend. I was head over heels for her. However, I was in a phase where I wouldn't call her for days and days. No real reason, just didn't feel like talking. We had great sexual chemistry and she was gorgeous.

If he were a REAL Tim Tebow fan he would sweat off premarital relations completely and ready others with kindness and respect. WWTD? Not treat women, especially those he doesn't know, as conquests or prizes to be won.
