First Things First

After First Things First came up short at the Sports Emmys, Kevin Wildes took a moment to thank the people who make the show possible: the fans.

In this heartfelt post-show message, Wildes shares his appreciation for everyone who watches, supports, and engages with First Things First every day. While the show didn't take home the trophy, he explains why the connection with the audience means even more.

Thank you for watching.
