Cam was a terrible addition to the show. I was never a skip or max fan, but I could hate listen to them and be good… cam makes me want to unfollow the show. I hope his tenure is short…

No disrespect to Stephen A and the crew. Molly was the reason why I started watching First Take in the first place. There’s nothing wrong with eye candy to help boost viewership. With all of that aside, I’ll still be a fan of First Take and continue listening to the podcast Monday thru Friday.
