Who doesn't hate Skip Bayless? I can think of at least three newspapers he's been booted from and he always has to take the "against the grain" angle on every topic in his feeble attempt to be more clever than the other sportswriters. He's regarded by many in the industry to be a complete douche, in which undoubtedly he feels no shame based on how he presents himself on camera. That felt good.
That Mike kept asking Skip to back his article, but Skip was replying in circles and kept mentioning the past.
I had the most terrifying thought. What if Cornheiser and Wilbon stopped doing PTI and they got replaced with Jim Rome and Skip Bayless. Man I'd have to stop watching ESPN.
Argh, Jim Rome is so difficult to watch. I love those PTI guys, though. You feel like they care about sports moreso than caring about telling you about sports.
That was funny. This is how it came across to me: Skip: Philly fans are violent. Mike: Where did you hear that? Skip: What do you mean where did I hear that? They are! Mike: What the fuck man? Skip: Excuse me? Mike: FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU AND YOUR FUCKING BULLSHIT FUCKING SHIT ABOUT MY FUCKING HOMETOWN. WE ARE FUCKING NOT FUCKING VIOLENT YOU FUCKING LOSER YOU FUCKING RUIN THE FUCKING NAME OF FUCKING PHILADELPHIA FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU.
Jim Rome is so irritating. There's only so many times you can listen to the "Errrrrrrrrrrrrr" soundbyte on his radio show before you have to change the channel out of necessity. I never did get the emphasis on smack-offs in his show either. It's just not funny to me. There, thread derailed.
I remember back in the 90's on ESPN former Rams-Saints QB Jim Everett pushed Rome to the floor live on ESPN. Because Rome kept calling him Kris.
My favorite ESPN guys are Mike & Mike. Skip Bayless is a douche. Rome is a douche on a whole plain of doucheness that only he can achieve.
Hilarious! Thanks Shipwreck... Skip Bayless is a punk douchebag, and he gets his jollies from berating others. Glad to hear someone call him out on it, besides kissing his ass on 1 and 10
