re: Why did Dirk leave?

He left so those immature dickheads on the heat who were joking about his sickness didn't get a chance to shake his hand

To think that Dirk would have that on his mind in that situation is ridiculous and would make him as childish as the guys who did it.

Dirk can be the life of the party once he is comfortable with the people around him but he isn't someone who craves attention.

He just wanted to compose himself. Nothing more to it.

I don't think Bayless believes this shite either.
Don't know if you realize it but Skip says a lot that he doesn't believe. It is the only reason he is still a member of the working press.
