NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

I could have posted this in a number of threads, or just make it it's own...but check out these excerpts on Skip Bayless from a WaPo article via Deadspin (WaPo article link at bottom)

At his core, he’s a man of routine, and at the beginning of each week, he orders five days’ worth of chicken and broccoli (no sauce), his nightly dinners. Every weekend he stops by the same Manhattan deli and buys five sandwiches to bring back to his weekday home in Connecticut, his daily lunch. He’s a health nut who exercises twice a day. Every Sunday morning is church, every Friday is date night and every evening in between is the same: chicken and broccoli — and sports.

People don’t know who he is, Bayless concedes, and can’t fathom how much he’s sacrificed for this job, how he’s devoted every waking hour to winning made-for-TV sports debates. His daily routine is split between exercise — he’s 62 years old but has the body of a man half his age — and work. He’s divorced and childless and sees his good friends only once or twice a year. “No regrets,” he says. “This is my calling. I was born to do this.”

Skip Bayless, ESPN2 “First Take” co-host, may be the most hated man in sports

I like Skip. I hate ESPN. I guess it's both their doing with his shtick, but as a person, he's always seemed like a cool dude.

Skip bayless seems like a cool dude to you?

 

[651akathepaul]

You take everything you see to heart, bro. His on-screen persona is a facade.

Not at all.. But you can see he clearly has an agenda when he says things..

And you can pretty much predict how he's going to react to certain stories based on the individuals involved



Just look at his obsession with tebow.. Now, if tebow didn't wear his religion on his sleeve the way he does, would skip be singing his praises in the manner that he does

So his on screen persona is a total douchebag yet you think he's a cool dude, please enlighten us to these times which Skip has let us see the "cool" Skip.

Skip Bayless is a hack whose only claim to fame is being a douchebag and starting rumors about Aikman being gay back in the day.

He's been a speculative corny douchebag his whole career and people only watch him because they hate him and are shocked by his stupidity.

Man, shut the hell up SP. I feel like he's not a bad guy off camera, that's all. I don't have to hate someone just everyone else believes all the ESPN bs. I got no problem with the guy at all.

Go away. You always poppin' off like I can't have a damn opinion...And you call Skip the douche.
