    Honestly the thing that bothered me the most about Skip wasn’t his debate tactics or overly confrontational approach, it was that he never changed his takes on anything even after being demonstrably proven wrong. He would say something obviously wrong, have his guests prove him wrong, have his team/player prove him wrong, and then come back the next day and make some excuse for why he was still technically correct. It’s ok to be wrong, you just can’t keep being wrong about the same topic forever.

      No, no he did change some of them... when they contradicted each other. As in, he hates LeBron (that's well documented), he hated Kawhi when he left the Spurs, going as far as to go an entire season mostly calling him by his number and not his name.
      Now, when Kawhi went to the Clippers and Lebron to the Lakers so they would be direct rivals nor only in Conference but city he immediately backtracked and started to gargle Leonard's ballsack almost more than when he was a Spur.

    I enjoyed Skip's verbal battles with Shannon. Shannon brought intelligence and charisma to the show and he countered Skip's flair for hyperbole with a workingman's point of view. Yeah Skip may have worn out his welcome, but in television, doesn't everyone? Remember when John Madden's schtick started to annoy you? Or when Romo's and Collinsworth's insights turned into cheerleading? I think all the negativity aimed Skip Bayless is a little overwrought. That kind of hatred should be reserved for Jim Rome.

To me, Shannon is the best option for a sports talk show because he’s a people person: very down to earth, capable of using his experiences as an athlete at the highest level, but also knowing when to put those aside in the conversation, and he studies his film, he was born for this role.

    Hearing talking heads argue sports topics is good when the talking heads have fun with it and keep it light. Nothing about the career of Skip Bayless ever came off as fun or light. His presence always made me feel like I was watching a sports version of the Jerry Springer Show. His contrived, angry shouting was always nails on chalkboard for me. Hope sports media try making sports fun some day rather than high drama 24/7.

    I reject your assertion that there was anything wrong with the tweet he sent. When stuff like that happens, it becomes a purity test online. You have to prove that you care by explicitly saying something to acknowledge Damar. Skip, like me, thinks it goes without saying; of course we're all hoping the guy comes out of that fine. Skip dared to ask a logistics question that millions and millions of people around the country were thinking, and the outrage machine culture we live in decided to take the time to roast him for it. It was the Salem witch trials and Skip was the only one who didn't explicitly state he wasn't a witch, he thought it obvious, and people decided to point at him and yell "witch." He wasn't saying "who cares about Damar," he made the mortal sin of thinking most grownups would understand that it goes without saying that we hope Damar is ok. We don't need to make a public statement to prove how moral we are when something like that happens; it's ok to consider other things too, especially when we were in unprecedented territory. If you can honestly tell me that you weren't wondering what the NFL was gonna do after cancelling that game, I call BS. Everyone wondered, Skip just is the only one who asked it publicly

    The Brendon Pernas of the RUclips world is where all the interesting sports commentary is happening now because they provide diverse, genuine content that goes beyond the sensationalism pioneered by figures like Skip Bayless. Bayless, once a respected journalist, shifted to creating polarizing hot takes that prioritized controversy over substance, transforming sports media into a spectacle of contrived debates. His departure is more a symptom of the bigger sports media companies failing to adapt to changing audience preferences. However, the decline of his show and the rise of independent creators highlight a shift towards more authentic and varied perspectives. People like Perna cater to a niche audience hungry for insightful and entertaining analysis, marking the end of an era dominated by personalities like Bayless and signaling a different future for sports media.
