@Christian-xr7hc Год назад

couldn’t have said it better! we do in fact, love to hate him lol

@lqprimetime4169 Год назад

This is the most accurate statement about Skip ever. The problem is Skip is VERY knowledgeable, so when he plays the villain against Lebron, or Coaches, his points are 98% true to what is going on. He want's Lebron to be a take over the "I will win i don't care what you say" Like Jordan did and Kobe did for a bit, and many Shooting guards. But Lebron's game isn't that, sometimes it's passing... is that because he isn't Jordan who said F You in another players face, and "Take that sucker" or is it because Lebron is a chess player and passes the ball controlling the game. That is Skip's only problem with Lebron, to be compared to Jordan, you have to say "give me the ball" and just out play the other team. But scared of free throws comes up because Lebrons a driving basketball player, and we don't know, did he pass it to take the pressure off, was he gassed to drive it (which is fine people get tired) or does he not have that killer will. Everything skip says is USUALLY accurate, and he is a showman enough to smile, even when his team is losing(cowboys), or not smile and be like "Cowboys what are you doing?" Hence what he calls the blind witnesses. That is the title of Truth teller he claims. You can't say someone is a hater or impartial, when the team they covered forever and loved, he even questions them like wtf? And says he is out on the cowboys every year. Psychologically that should be enough to show Skip isn't biased or a hater, he will out his own team, so when he out's others, there is a valid reason for him thinking that, whether he is wrong or not, it isn't hating.

Good for Skip to stand up for himself after he was devalued by SAS. SAS is clearly working on his next contract putting that made-up narrative out there but he is simultaneously hurting Skip's next contract. Even though some people think Skip is overreacting, SAS is clearly hurting Skip's career prospects with that fake narrative that Skip doesn't bring any viewership. He's trying to look good by making Skip look bad - which is a snake move and is what has Skip hurt here. We all know Skip saved SAS after he was fired from ESPN - it wasn't the other way around. Good for Skip!

@@bilwit I heard that every president, and every press conference was read off a stack of papers, but I could be wrong. I think they are just remembering not to leave out important points, and telling how they feel, because the next morning when you wake up, you don't feel the same about the situation. Poorly reading, I know nothing about. My analogy to presidents and celebrities reading a statement off a teleprompter or paper, comes out well. The must be something that crawls in Skips skin where he has to pause, and can't just glance, remember the lines and belt them out to the camera, BUT that does not diminish the fact these are his true feelings, that is why it is written down, so he remembers every thing he wanted to say in the moment, and every point he wanted to make. Maybe he just needs a speech writer, so it flows better. Presidents flow, but they are just reading reading words like a song someone wrote for them. Skip can't flow because he writes something then "siiigh" and it means something to him, and he has to remember more.

@seansimms8503 Год назад

I agree, I watched Skip before Stephen A became permanent...I know Stephen A is blowing up his role and how he made the show, I know cause I watched it, it's typical Stephen A hyperbole, Skip is reading into that podcast a little too emotionally.

@issiahsilva Год назад

@@danielakanji7305 I did. He’s reacting emotionally. I also saw what that show looked like before Stephen A and after. The production value, the ratings, and everything else went up when Stephen A got there permanently.

@@eddiewilson3724 He didn't lie. In that SAME interview he basically credits Skip for his entire career. People are misinterpreting what he was saying - even if he did get facts wrong (I don't have a way to fact check Skip or SAS), he never made it seem like he saved the show. My interpretation was "Skip got me out the dog house"...He literally talked about how his career was stalled until Skip asked him to come on.

Man o’ man that was one backstory into the history of the legend of Skip Bayless and the birth of First Take. It started out impactful with the opening line about him (Stephen a. Smith) being more of a brother to him than his real brother. P.s shoutout to the 2 live stews, they are ahead of their time.

I've been watching skip since a teenager... Since sports reporters on Sunday's then over to cold pizza on to first take.... I watched SAS on the podcast and I was pretty shocked he said he saved first take because everyone I knew watched it before SAS was a permanent guest.... Since skip moved to FS1 I only watch undisputed.... And I am a DIE HARD EAGLES FAN but got love for Skip... This looks like it hurts him so bad to put things in the proper prospective as SAS is a close friend to Skip...

So, in 11th grade I was in English composition, the regents class back in 1982..We had been assigned to write an essay about something...I wrote about Ray boom boom Mancini and Roberto Duran..I got a C I think. after he handed the papers back he told me to see him after class..He told me that what I wrote was good but he also said that it was clear to him that I didn't know a whole lot about boxing but what I wrote was good enough because he knew I liked those fighters...he said you could be a great writer, but when you write, write something that you know a lot about and also include what is in your heart too, like you did in that essay..That changed my life...he had given me the key to success in writing. I never saw another C letter grade again in his class. This episode is a great example of what I'm talking about with my story. Skip is clearly talking about something he knows a lot about and he also is using what is in his heart. I'm talking about both the SAS stuff and the stories about Jordan..I nearly cried at the end, and that is what communication is all about
