Looks like several people in the media are going after Skip Bayless now

Moments after the Cleveland Cavaliers did the improbable, coming back from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, the hot — so very, very hot — takes were coming back to bite some people in the seat of their baggy shorts.
The author of many of those steamy takes, of course, was Skip Bayless, who will leave ESPN for Fox Sports later this summer. Let’s climb into the way-back machine, shall we?
As late as Sunday night, the man whose Twitter bio brags, “Maybe not what you want to hear, but need to hear,” was attempting arson on Twitter, spinning the story forward as best he could.

How can Kyrie Irving not be Finals MVP after his last four games?
quote:
Skip Bayless ?@RealSkipBayless
Kyrie last 5 games: 30 in win, 34 as LeBron disappeared, 41 in win, 23 in win (tone-setting 20 in 1st half), 26 & game-winner in Game 7. MVP

Skip Bayless ?@RealSkipBayless
Here it comes: Witnesses will now make the case LeBron James is better than Michael Jordan.
quote:
The ESPNers weren’t letting him get away with it. Scott Van Pelt was blunt: “Time to find a new ax to grind if you have made your living ripping him. Find a new ax.” Nor was anyone else on the Internet letting Bayless slide.

Rich Eisen ?@richeisen
And the best part: @KingJames ends @RealSkipBayless career at ESPN that he built by trolling on him by shutting him the F up.

That was the plan. Can't believe people still fall for this.

All his goal is, is to get attention.
Right. I guess I just don't get it.
Skip Bayless doesn't really believe that LeBron sucks. But he gets paid millions to deliver these hot takes that clowns on the MSB dole out for free so that people and other media personalities can feel superior slamming him down.
You wouldn't pay somebody on the MSB or Poliboard millions to listen to their bullshite but because Skip is on the TeeVee, people can't get enough of hate watching him.

Oh I agree, but he's making a big mistake leaving ESPN. We probably won't hear too much from him when he switches to Fox. That's either good or bad, depending on how you feel about the guy.

He did say Lebron was 0-4 in last 4 mins(actually 4:13) and Kyrie was the one that hit the big 3 in the clutch. Credit to Lebron, he did make a huge 3 and got the 3 FT's at the 5min mark.

People sure do care what that fool has to say. I really do not understand why some of you post the shite you do.
Is it too much for you to just talk about the game itself? So let's talk about shite that is ridiculous.
makes zero sense.

No ones making you read this. This is a message board, we can discuss anything and everything. Unless I'm completely wrong about that?

Is anyone really surprised he made his usual over exaggerated comments to accumulate as many clicks and viewers possible?

Sure you can and I can continue to point out what a moron you are for caring.

I guess he thinks the only way to save face is to double down. Just a bad strategy given the way that Lebron won. Skip looks worse than usual.

Skip is the greatest troll of our generation. He has mastered his craft like no other.

Does this mean he won't be on Sports Yelling any longer? It's my favorite show.

Remember that time Skip almost cried on TV because everyone thought he was a joke and no one acknowledged his past writing career?
Posted on 6/20/16 at 11:59 am to danfraz
Dude the thread is about shitting on Bayless' dumb arse. It sounds like you agree he's a hack, so why do you disagree with him being lambasted on a sports message board?
