Is this what takes skip down?

It should be. He posted this purely to take advantage of this and get likes/reactions. Genuine piece of shite

Amazes me how people can't manage to spend 30 seconds to think before they tweet. This makes him a liability to the network, players are all over twitter seeing this and are pissed.

It's mind-boggling

I am no defender of Skip, I think he's a complete douche

But I'm not getting the outrage over a tweet that could be read as saying "I understand why the NFL should suspend this game but how are they realistically going to do it?"

I've seen 100 worse blue check takes in the last hour than his.

This hit different and it may likely cost him his job

Probably has a nice buyout

understand what he was trying to say but you don't say it within minutes of the ambulance leaving the middle of the field. It's called timing and that's the bad kind.

Right. He was trying to say what about the football while also getting in a “this is a serious moment.”

Basically just wanting to hear himself talk.

Right. It’s just a timing thing. He didn’t say anything edgy or anything like that.

Skip’s response to the backlash:

Nothing is more important than that young man's health. That was the point of my last tweet. I'm sorry if that was misunderstood but his health is all that matters. Again, everything else is irrelevant. I prayed for him & will continue to.
