Skip Bayless
Is Skip Bayless a complete jacka$$ or a closet Dame Time fan?

I don't mind skeptics, but an a$$ is an a$$. I was simply curious what others thought about the guy. I've never paid any attention to him until this past week when he got into it with Lillard. Shannon Sharpe is great! He's fighting for Lillard. I certainly respect an athlete's point of view more than a journalists point of view, even if the athlete played a different sport. They at least have an idea what they're talking about when it comes to sports in general.

Re: Skip Bayless
He is on a tweeting spree now. Forget the fact that Dame willed his team to the playoffs literally, instead he rather look like an utter fool and talk about the last 2 minutes of games. I wish I could get paid as much as him to talk like an idiot on national TV.

Re: Skip Bayless
Yeah, I heard he is already talking crap about Dame after tonight's game.

Re: Skip Bayless
I think I watched a couple of minutes of him a few years ago when I was staying at a hotel...changed the channel. I saw immediately that he had no idea what he was talking about, and was obviously just a "hot take" talking head trying to make a living off the backs of people with actual talent.

Re: Skip Bayless
Skip pulled the same crap with Richard Sherman. He's a tool.

He's basically what people claim Stephen A is but at least Stephen A actually has some relevant things to say at times. I think I know why he seems to hate Damian though, Dame destroyed OKC and forced them to trade Westbrook+PG guess where Skip was born,that's right folks Oklahoma City. He lived there through a good chunk of his life and actually worked on The Daily Oklahoman as an intern for their sports editor.

Re: Skip Bayless
Proof that Skip was riding hard on the Westbrook+PG train and looked like a complete moron after they lost. Still thought OKC was going to win after digging themselves a 0-2 hole.

Skip Bayless is an un-entertaining asshat of the Bill Simmons variety. I don't understand who finds his uninspired takes appealing. There are a bunch shock-jocks out there:
- Steven A. (who is more entertaining and will usually provide a hilarious mea-culpa when he's wrong.)
- Cowherd (who is genuinely funny, even as he has become a horrific cali-centric homer)
- Bill Simmons (who's IQ matches his sneaker size).
- Max Kellerman (who's almost as bad as Bayless)
and then there is Bayless, who's become the worst of the bunch. Just block him, you are doing yourself a service.

Re: Skip Bayless
Did anyone see the segment the other day with Bayless and Shannon Sharpe when discussing Lillard's 61 point game? Shannon Sharpe was discussing the 3 point shot that bounced like 10 feet high, then went in. He said he was watching that replay and he suddenly realized he was watching Jesus Christ, disguised as Damian Lillard. I laughed so hard. What an awesome take! If you can find that short snippet, watch it cuz it's awesome.

Trust me, I ignore most **** like this but when they run their mouth this much it makes me take notice. I have probably spent less than 10 minutes of my life watching him in anything before he this point. Even after that I have only seen a handful of clips I hate most National sports media because nearly all of them are super biased for the biggest markets. So even those that know something about the game still have to bust their ass propping up teams like The Lakers or something.
The only reason I knew about his OKC ties was because I wiki'ed him to see where he was born and how long he spent there.
