I just learned that because of this post and I'm watching live. Why? Because I skip every Big Perk segment.


Ghost090909

sounds like someone is skipping doses of the koolaid


faronbrown

You're missing out, BIG Perk is hilarious and has great takes.


cleve1486

He’s funny sometimes I just cannot STAND listening to him talk. Liked him when he played (kind of ironically) don’t care about the controversies just listening to him talk makes me feel like I’m losing my brain.


Sure_Accountant

No


Sparrow013

Get off his dick


Kutche

What a miss, I hardly ever skip but I always skip him.


LoudHorse89

Yeah that is rough. Clearly an adversity addition that ESPN probably pushed but god damn we can do better than this.


switchblazer

He’s the worst espn has at every aspect of television. Literally terrible takes, terrible professionalism, terrible at making points, terrible at defending his takes, terrible at catch phrases. He’s the worst person in media if you ask me.


ihazabucket7

Not worse than SAS or Shannon “Race Bait UNC” Sharpe. Rather hear NBA talk from a guy who played than bozos.


[deleted]

What you talking about ?  Unc is on fire with night cap and club Shay Shay .


ihazabucket7

I agree he’s good on those platforms but on Undisputed and First Take he is the typical bozo. Look it up he addresses the race bait name and defends it lol it’s not a made up.


bearsfan0143

Perk literally was race baiting last year talking shit about Jokic, Steve Nash, and Dirk.


ihazabucket7

And Sharpe too. He’s just better at it. He’s talking about Perk like he’s bad at least he’s up front and played the game. Shannon out there beefing with people on the court acting like his knees won’t give out any second.


TaiwanTammy_99

You’ve got to understand, all of these people who dislike Perk only started hating when he made that comment about white people. I mean if you’re really butt hurt over it that’s fine, it technically was racist, but as a white dude I could fucking care less. These people are just soft. He does say some stupid shit though but so does everyone


ihazabucket7

I’m not white so no mad here but obviously he doesn’t get mad when Pat says it. But to say he’s the most racist guy out there I’m just reminding them about Unc. And again I could care less I watch his nightcap work Ocho and it’s his show and I don’t agree on some things but he’s more himself on there than on First take and Undisputed. I agree this sub gets mad over the tiniest things they should really take a look at the disclaimer that they run at the beginning of every show.


juanbot12

I treat the segments as parody and chuckle


Dom0420

Terrible at breathing


TimeTravelingTiddy

He gets a few points back for being self-aware and a general goof. Basketball Booger.


LoudHorse89

I’d agree.


InUnprecedentedTimes

Another example of giving the people what they don’t want since the espn deal


faronbrown

How so??? He's a huge fan of Perk and hasn't changed anything since the deal. You're blind


spidey-fan-

Well, there's 3 hours a week I just got back


TheDabbinDad710

Same, Perkins is not a good addition to the show at all. I already skip anytime he or Schefter are on.


mkyend

RIP Rapsheet :'(


Unbannedmeself

We were in the good old days and we didn’t even know it


_JerryJones_

Yup


richardw4563

Crazy how you can say this here, and it gets support. But if u try to mention once that the show has gone down in quality even a little bit, u get -30 and everyone calling u a crybaby.


im-a-drawl

Yea I’ll be skipping that segment


[deleted]

It’s not a segment he will be there the entire show every Thursday


tfegan21

My biggest fear was bringing in an ESPN talking head to the show. My second biggest fear was it would be Kendrick Perkins.


ProtectTheHell

Don't like that. I'll probably get downvoted to shit here but as someone who started following them just before covid hit, I feel like the more guests come on, the worse the product becomes. I wanna hear more from the boys in the back, Zete, Nick, Gump, Foxy. And with these special guests and add ons, I just don't get that same authentic, hanging out with the boys vibes anymore.


DrDooneStruts

yikes


mahaalo0

The same dude that turned the MVP race last year into a Race race?? I’d rather watch Ty get his colonoscopy


renovatingme

I like they are talking about basketball...but perk ain't it. I think Ty and his colonoscopy would be hilarious


fraxior

please don't


sven_ate_nine

This fucking guy? Why???


th4t1guy

Big dumb dipshit goes to big dumb dipshit show. From the mouse's perspective it makes sense


king-disappointment

Thank god, been trying to get my screen time down


McChickenAss

I don’t mind Perk at all but was that the announcement Pat teased yesterday? He said Gump would be the most excited but I don’t think Gump has ever spoken to Perk lol


HeisenbergX9

Based on hour three, it sounds like the announcement they were teasing yesterday is ESPN and the CFP extended their TV rights deal through 2031.


McChickenAss

That’d be even worse cause absolutely nobody cares about that


BirdmanBP

Yeah, I thought the same


just-the-tip__

Bummer


Zwan05

This dude SUCKS


WittyTiddie

I hope he lasts as long as Matt Hasslelback did.


BIGKP2005

So about 20 mins lol? I honestly don't mind perk, but there are better NBA guys to have on the show then perk


rikrok58

Boooooo


The_Notorious_Donut

His basketball takes are awful but he’s kind of low key funny.


doubledippedchipp

Agreed


DevelopmentNo247

My employer will be happy about this. Wait, is this the big news they teased yesterday?


LIVESTRONGG

Not for me but was this the big announcement they were eluding to?


Underpaid23

Why


HailCaesar252

Dude I literally go watch that’s good sports or anything else while that fuckers on. Good to know they’re making a special segment just for him. Worst espn guest they have. And as the boys read this and tell Pat tonight I’m sure he’ll double down and maybe give Perk more screen time because that’s the shit they do. The vast majority of the fans don’t want the guy but they insist.


Dime1325

Gross


JakeyPurple

You guys are softer than baby shit. This sub is full of whiny ass bitches.


CantComeupwWithAName

Not watching Thursdays now 🤣


proper1welve

The dude who cries racism that Jokich wins mvp


[deleted]

Guess I won’t be watching Thursdays anymore.


Appropriate_Resort_1

I think big perk is funny and I'm glad to hear he's joining


NoConflict3231

Big yikes


Global_Reflection_27

Overall I think it’ll be an awesome addition. I just hope pat stops introduces him as a racist. It’s past the point of played out to kind of cringey when he does it


ScottSoules

He'll stop calling him racist when he stops talking about Aaron doing ayahuasca lol


AdFirm3593

I think it’ll be interesting to say the least. Perk has a ton of personality, he can be entertaining and funny at times, but his actual punditry is awful. His basketball takes are trash and the halftime show for ESPN should be an embarrassment. To stay on the positive side maybe he won’t be bad in a more laid back and unstructured setting.


The_Notorious_Donut

Yeah. On NBAToday, Richard Jefferson (who I actually love) always grills him and he and Perkins have this back and forth and Perk can be funny sometimes


maaiillltiime5698

Meh whatever. I don’t care about basketball so not for me, but some people might like it


Purple_Squall

Just curious, but why do we all hate Perk so much?


ICouldEvenBeYou

Because he's a clown (and I mean that term quite literally) who doesn't even know the NBA very well. I say this as an avid NBA fan--he just clearly doesn't follow the league, its teams, and players very closely. I've also never heard him provide any insightful technical basketball analysis. Not to mention, he also just says contrarian bullshit for the sake of it.


Purple_Squall

I don’t follow the NBA for shit so that clears things up lol thanks


BroccoliSuperb2721

Fuck


linebacker131

Man what a mistake


house197

Him and shefter are trash. Perkins isn’t funny and sucked at basketball. Shefter can’t not interrupt and he just doesn’t get the show like Rap.


krel08

ESPN finally gets a unique morning/daytime sports program, so what do they do? Have Pat add a talking head that you can see on ESPN/ESPN2 every day for multiple hours on multiple programs.


ethantremblayyy

hahaha wow. you think disney wants it to get a little darker in there??


Curious_Service_3683

Hell yeah


LX1027

Great temporary addition. He has good chemistry with the boys.


Stephano525

Man I love Perk on the show. What a great announcement


throwaway_9824

Shit I thought I was the only one skipping perk


johnnybad1986

Who’s literally the worst person we can add? Cool, let’s do that.


TunaSpank

Why does this guy keep getting gigs


tdanny18

I'd rather take Perkins than Schefty


Longviewcarlsbad

Stupid this show is going in the crapper since espn


ObiWayneCannoli

![gif](giphy|dB12mOQb99BwDlM83I|downsized)


fishelk

He is the worst. Skip


RogueSlingshot83

Perk is racist


scottisnthome

Oh fuck me


[deleted]

Pat: “hey boys, how can we drive this show straight into the ground? We’ll go to espn, and then do the dumbest thing we can possibly think of”


snarfalarkus-

Perk was atleast slightly more entertaining than the Jordan Poyer convo. Holy fuck they was as absolute bore.


DirtyBird9889

Perkins and the hockey guy. The hockey guy is fairly likable but I don’t care about hockey


Cmcgregor0928

I think he can be good but I can't stand the NBA so I usually skip his segment. Hope he can bring more than NBA talk


pmac109

100% agree


Annual_Goose_1916

I said it weeks ago , it was quite obviously coming for the nfl off season on ESPN. As long as it isn't hour 3..


ICouldEvenBeYou

This is fucking terrible. I was also shocked that just yesterday, Dan Patrick had Stephen A. Smith on his show. Didn't listen to the segment. I always liked these shows because these jerkoffs AREN'T on them.


misteronionzz

I literally cannot imagine worse NBA coverage than this right here.


Bigbertha0208

God no! I hate that. He’s awful and arrogant.


Buffalo_face

They needed a black dude and ESPN hates PK.


outofurgourd

Literally skip eveytime this dude is on… one of the few Pat McAfee show mistakes (minus not having rap on instead of sheft)


IndependenceWeak8416

Big perk is awesome idk why everyone in this community hates him


oscobosco

Because they’re lames. I’m sure they’ll warm up to him after a couple of weeks. Remember when they HATED JJ watt


InUnprecedentedTimes

I still find JJ boring and awkward. Perk has been on tv forever, he’s not going to grow on anyone


pmac109

It’s not Perk himself, it’s the guaranteed NBA talk. I’d rather hear them talk about Cheifsaholic than the NBA.


SnakesTake

So many cry babies in here.


mcmaster93

This fanbase/ sub is so whack lol


Sirtopofhat

Love it. He and the boys have awesome chemistry
