The Pat McAfee Show‘s debut on ESPN on Thursday went exactly how you thought it would go so far. It’s absolutely chaotic.
McAfee and his crew are up to their normal shenanigans when it comes to the show. It’s just being broadcasted on ESPN’s air now which is, well, uh, quite an interesting turn of events.
Having something as vulgar as this broadcast on ESPN’s air is a massive change of page. I feel for whoever has to man the control room on the back end because that censor button is going to break at this rate.
The show wasn’t even through with its first episode and McAfee was already testing the censorship limits with Aaron Rodgers. It’s so wild.
They’re just cursing on ESPN like it’s nothing. WARNING: Some NSFW stuff is ahead:

“So we can’t say Fffff. Just that one, though. [Expletive]’s good. That’s the first one. We’ll see if that one went through. Damn. Oh, damn.”
After McAfee tested the limits a bit, Aaron Rodgers — the NFL’s leading chaos lord — tried to push things even further. “I feel like we should do some episodes like South Park did that one time and try to break the record for how many times they can curse.”
See? Told you. Chaos. Just completely chaotic. Whew, boy, ESPN. What have you gotten yourselves into? This is just wild.
Give the dude in the control room — whose name is apparently Dick Good, according to McAfee— a raise. He deserves it already.
