Dude has the classic face for radio...

BlackHelicopters 05-15-2017 09:16 AM

Never heard of him.

Eleazar 05-15-2017 09:19 AM

That little twerp is getting a TV show?

redfan 05-15-2017 09:28 AM

And lo, when he opened the 7th seal, there was silence...

BWillie 05-15-2017 09:38 AM

Ive always maintained he was good at his job. Just didn't agree with all of his takes

Dante84 05-15-2017 09:41 AM

Good dude

ChiefsCountry 05-15-2017 09:45 AM

Nick Wright and Whitlock plenty of KC love on FS1.

Yeah, that's a dude that shouldn't be showcasing that mug on TV.

He's the love child of Shaka Smart and Marshall Henderson

Bowser 05-15-2017 10:05 AM

I couldn't stand him when he first started at 610, but by the time he left I was listening pretty regularly. Good for him.

RunKC 05-15-2017 10:05 AM

He's so overrated. LeBron and liberal politics. That's his entire show. That's it

Lex Luthor 05-15-2017 10:06 AM

I remember when Nick Wright was a student at Syracuse and posting on KCFORUM.NET as Nick Orange. Then one day he announced that he had been hired by 610 AM to do a radio show.

There's hope for everyone here to get a national TV gig talking about sports!

Wright was around through some of the darkest days of the Chiefs and some of the most fun times on CP. Too bad the link in that OP is broken.

ive never liked Nick Wright mainly because I don't like the shock and awe type of sports analyst. The ones that say outrageous things they know aren't true just to get listens and people to be like wtf is this guy smoking

lcarus 05-15-2017 10:46 AM

Yeah I could tell he was on his way up since he was up Colin Cowherds ass the past year or so.

I prefer Skip Bayless to Nick Wright.....

.....that is how bad Nick Wright is. Just a joke of a professional.

Is that what you thought he was or something?

He was pretty damn good here in KC; that's why he's no longer in KC.

LoneWolf 05-15-2017 11:40 AM

Nick Wright turns every topic into a racial issue. **** that assclown.

Good news is he might finally be able to afford that long overdue nose job.

Rudy tossed tigger's salad 05-15-2017 11:42 AM

he was well received in Houston.

kysirsoze 05-15-2017 11:47 AM

Never listened in KC, but he's a great follow on Twitter. Seems like a pretty cool guy. Good for him.

POND_OF_RED 05-15-2017 11:47 AM

Nice. Haven't listened to 610 since he left really. Was always entertaining and had great Chiefs discussions. Good for him.

According to Nick Wright I am 100% racist because I like College Basketball but could care less about watching the NBA.

Never understood how people like the college game more than the pros. There is absolutely nothing about the college game that is better besides the win or go home tournament layout. That's really not better, though, just more intense obviously. Long shot clocks, terrible shot selections and way too many fouls called. It's baffling to me that someone can love college basketball and hate the NBA. It's even weirder meeting college football fans who don't watch the NFL.

I can see why fans would like either or. I like both. I used to be all about saying the NBA refs are better than college. It's hard to say now. NBA refs are falling for way too many flops, head snaps, and heaves from the 3 point line when they should be calling on the floor fouls or no fouls at all. It's been ugly to watch this post season. Just horrid refereeing. Not that college refs are better or worse.

notorious 05-15-2017 06:30 PM

At least he is a Chiefs fan. The more Chiefs fans that get to the national stage the more love the Chiefs get. The more love they get the more "breaks" the Chiefs will get in the big games.

PunkinDrublic 05-15-2017 07:48 PM

He needs to eat a sandwich. He looks like a chemo patient who's dying wish was to have his own TV show.

MahiMike 05-15-2017 07:50 PM

A lot of KC people have an alma mater or a local college team to root for, but no one has a local NBA team to get into.

I thought the point of calling it First Things First was that it was the first show of the day on the FS1 lineup. Now it should be called Fourth Things First

Shaid 09-06-2022 11:20 AM

So they got rid of Jenna huh? I mostly only watch clips of the show during the season.

Yep. She gone.

RealSNR 09-06-2022 11:26 AM

Woah. I guess Joy Taylor left Cowherd and is replacing Wiley on Speak for Yourself.

Nice. They get rid of the biggest douchebag (other than Thkyiup) and we get to see more Joy. I'm down with it.

alpha_omega 09-06-2022 11:31 AM

Appears their new morning show is trash. It was nice to see Schwartz, but this Carton dude is terrible.

Carton used to have a show with Boomer Esiason in NY.

Then he got into some ponzi type scheme and had to go to federal prison for a while.

I wish FS1 would bring the two Canadian guys back who did there version of SportsCenter. They were pretty good. Of course they have to go against SVP now.

It’s definitely a promotion for the show and Nick. He’s a big Chiefs homer so I’m forced to have his back.

As much as it pains me, Nick Wright is my dawg. He is a huge Chiefs Homer and we don't have many of them.

Sure. Better time slot for Nick. I'm here for it.

Change the name of the show, though.

TSN in Canada fired one of those guys. The other one still does a show at midnight.

Brody Wa 09-06-2022 05:51 PM

I DVR all sports shows with Max Kellerman and Nick Wright.

BWillie 09-06-2022 06:50 PM

The banter and shit talking between Wildes and Wright is A+ material. Really wish Jenna was still on. Broussard is a good ad but as long as its Wright vs Wildes it will be a hit.

Nick Wright wears a pinkie ring. Which having listened to his show when it was in KC completely fits with what I imagined him to be like

He's a NY sports radio guy which means it's the same type of show as Keitzman's old show but 10x worse. Just horrible one horrible hot take after the other. Zero substance, all garbage.

It might be watchable now but when the season starts it's Dak-Cowboys/LeBron/Lakers and then the writers will throw in some bullshit like "is Carr having as good of a season as Mahomes?"

the steam 09-06-2022 07:40 PM

Nick is awful. Just because he loves KC doesn't give him a pass. He's supposed to be unbiased. I have been listening to hosts like Dan Patrick, Eisen, Rome, Mad dog for years and I have no idea who their favorite teams/players are. It's OK for 14 year old fan boys to make idiotic statements like "Feels like 20-0 to me" and "LeBron is the GOAT and there isn't even a close 2nd" Don't want to hear that hyperbole from a sports talk show host

srvy 09-06-2022 07:42 PM

I watched the new Speak just to ogle Joy when I got home. They got rid of Wiley which needed to be done but Nacho is just as annoying and just won't STFU.

srvy 09-06-2022 07:48 PM

Also GMF needs a complete overhaul just stale Kyle Brandt is just worthless and Schrager doesn't' seem to care anymore. McCourty isn't a bad replacement but the show is a bore.

I think thats why the show works. Wildes is admittedly biased too.
