So it's coming out that Bayless is the one who let things go too far. That it's his show and well...Fox Sports empowered him for years.
- When Shannon Sharpe joined Undisputed in 2016 he was just starting out in that format and took a 2nd banana role in a sense. As time passed he became a star as well...and wanted some control.
Sharpe wanted to pick some topics. He wanted to pick some that they'd do. But Bayless was very strict on wanting all the power. He feels it's his show and Sharpe is still at that 2016 situation. So the network let him push Shannon out essentially.
- Jonathan Coachman told a story where years ago he was on 1st Take. Filling in for Stephen A Smith that day. He tells how Skip was next to him and told him..."What are you gonna debate on ? Golf ?" Mocking him before the show. Coachman claims the network has coddled Bayless for years and did here.

The best part of that show was Sharpe. I wonder how it will do in the ratings with just Skip or if they will find another up and comer he can bully to be on his show.

Sharpe really started by showing he had that sharper (…did not mean for that pun, but oh well) insight into sports talk than Skip did, which wasn’t surprising, since Skip’s whole thing is more being a loud, self-involved shock-jock… but Sharpe also wound up figure out how to turn his considerable charisma, showmanship, and personality into the more refined type a talk show needed, which sort of renders Skip redundant outside of his own following… and Sharpe can clearly grow a larger one hismelf.
Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?
I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

Shannon Sharpe was just as annoying as Bayless, in his own way. I honestly don't know why anyone watched the two of them.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.
Just heard the Vikings cut RB Dalvin Cook. That was surprising.

Which was the worst thing Bayless ever went on about, imo. I get it, his whole shtick that has kept him on cable television, even though I would never intentionally listen to him, that particular take seemed mad unnecessarily harsh.
I will miss Shay and the wisdom drops from his Grandma he'd sprinkle in but he'll pop back up. I can only imagine, the levels of restraint, he's show over the run of Undisputed he's put forth in not reaching over that desk and slapping the fire out of Skip. Yea sure he took the 'Goat James' thing a bit too far but any best player on the planet is going to have some shill out there in the space. Which is fine, just took it to far at times. Hell, now that I think about it, I don't even watch many studio pre-game shows since he left CBS.
Beefing up the old home security, huh?You bet yer ass.
