So you are saying the Raiders didn't give up a 3rd round pick for taking Pryor?

If so, you may want to watch all the ESPN and FS1 that you possibly can.

You are a dumbass, Pryor was a supplemental draft pick.

The show wasn't bad besides the oddly put together panel. It was like they wanted to force some "Best Damn Sports Show" in there but they got even worse people to do it.
The anchors they were trying too hard to be funny but that's probably 1st show nerves.

Still it's not a Sportscenter killer.

Facts are facts, look up how a supplemental draft pick works.

I actually wouldn't mind this as a separate show, but meshing it as an "analyst panel" on a highlight show is too ambitious.

That is how they are. They have been doing this together for like the past 10 years.

They are silly, crack jokes, and make mistakes. It's part of their charm.

It's not like this is their first gig and they are trying too hard. This is how they have always been, so you can either jump on board... or not. They aren't going to change all of a sudden for you.

And how well did they do with Canadian population on TSN compared to ESPN?

Its also not the most efficient use of time to have FIVE people over there waiting an entire show to do a couple 3 minute segments where they each get about 30 secs to talk.

Yep, and why exactly should we turn away from Herm Edwards on ESPN to watch Gary Payton talk about the same football topic on FS1?

They are both loudmouths, but at least one loudmouth played and coached the sport.

Canadians love them.

And this is interesting:

The Wall Street Journal published a feature story on the pair titled "Why Can't We Have Canada's 'SportsCentre'?", which compared the Onrait / O'Toole pairing to the likes of 1990s ESPN SportsCenter anchors Keith Olbermann and Craig Kilborn.[2] The attention eventually led to Onrait, O'Toole, and their longtime producer Tim Moriarty all being hired by Fox Sports in the U.S. to help launch its new national cable channel Fox Sports 1.
