Me too

Same here 😂

Kinda lost me too

Borderline being the key word. I get it.

@@lightinferno4490 Something can’t be “borderline racist” that literally doesn’t make sense. It racist or it’s not, none of this half measure insinuating garbage. He’s just throwing it out there to claim some kinda of bs moral superiority. This had nothing to do with race Skip was just being a dick lol

Thank you very much, I said this back when Skip first made the comment and people on KZfaq said you can compare the positions based on impact. I told them you can't compare a tight end to a quarterback, a QB will always win that debate. The QB has the ball in his hands every play while a tight end depends on a QB to throw him the ball. Quarterback is the most important position even if it's Baker Mayfield or Tom Brady. Unless it's a team like San Francisco that's not as QB dependent they determine the outcome with their decision making. As a tight end you have 2 jobs, blocking and catching passes.

So what you’re saying is that Shannon wasn’t capable of being the most important player on the team

@@Evilkevin3 That's no disrespect to Shannon but a tight end will never be the most important player on a team. He can be the best player but he can't throw himself the ball. Just last year when Ryan Tannehill was out and they replaced him with Willis that hurt Derrick Henry in his production. Henry is clearly the best player but the importance of the QB outweighs a running back. So like I said a TE can be the best player but not the most important player. You see how the Vikings just released Dalvin Cook, he's better than Kirk Cousins but not more valuable.

Facts

Protection of the refs?? Shut up!!

he said the optics were "borderline" racist. Meaning some people could see it that way whether it really was or not simply because skip was comparing a white athlete to a black athlete and saying "he's better than you." Which is totally true. Emmitt wasn't wrong about that...

First off, he said to him, he also said optics. And if you ever watch the show with Shannon and Skip. You definitely feel like he's better than Shannon. So I could see an argument for what he said. Not saying it's the case. But one thing I do know, Skip is definitely playing a role. I would love to know how he truly feels.

@@ericmcgowan1993 there's nothing borderline racist about it. It was a personal stab and a low blow certainly, and tbh a stupid argument. They played 2 different positions. Still doesn't make it racist

@@Ace2Trill racism IS stupidity

White people cannot cause destruction to a specific race then get upset wit that race for viewing things a certain way

Lol, Emmitt Smith has always been one that speaks his mind. I don't always agree with him but I definitely respect him as a man that stands for what he believes.

He is not very bright

He did go on Undisputed lol!

Emmitt will never be accused of being intelligent.

He is dumb as a brick lol

There's a lot of great sports bettors who've never played.

@@fredhall6525 yes, and most of them have more success than explayers betting...Some of the coaches have very little experience playing, some of them zero experience as players professionally.. Lets not even talk about general managers and team presidents..

Then don't have sport commentators without pro experience, let's see where it takes the companies

Even the racist line?

He just doesn’t like criticism anyone who watches sports is allowed to comment on what they are watching no one is forced to watch these debate shows, people pay for these athletes careers but aren’t allowed to criticize them like get real

And guns wit liberals

Yeah that is some bullshit logic because he needs to realize there's a whole bunch of people that never played his sport that bought tickets to his games and watched the NFL their whole lives which created higher salaries for these players.

​@@Kbiggins1978 stupid you've never owned an Amazon or Walmart, but you spend your money there. You never thought for once you own the Waltons or Bezos, but you think you can buy a black athlete.

No the problem is that people only call Skip unqualified when he goes against the majority/ popular opinion. When Skip makes valid criticism about Russell Westbrook for his bad play style, nobody ever says he’s unqualified. But when Skip says that Tom Brady is better than Shannon (which is true, if we’re going off of accomplishments and accolades), suddenly everybody says Skip is unqualified to discuss sports because he never played. You don’t need a degree in aviation to know if pilot is good at their job, and you don’t need to play sports to commentate on/ critique an athlete

@ajmulenga I didn't think it's far to compare to players of different era's because who know what kinda stats shannon would had in the modern era and I don't think Tom's the best sure he won the most but that doesn't mean ur the best there's a lot of guy who could have done great things if they had the team's tom was not don't get me worng he was a great qb and did a lot a good thing but lets not pretend like tom wasn't on very good teams who played in okay to poor division's

I promise you.. It'll still thrive without you.. 50+ years you almost on your way outta here anyway slick.. Be patient

@Darrell Webb you right, but you probably ain't far behind Smooth. I'm just tired of sports in general. Thanks for the encouraging words. My 2 cents ain't worth shit so please excuse my rhetoric.

To many black faces for you

lol his reasoning is "a white guy a black guy"

unfortunately for him this time.

Caucasian, correct ?😂

He said that comment sounds racist n a argument

@1018miamidrive Good luck with that line of thinking it's 2023 ain't nothing black people can't do under the law that white people cannot but instead of trying to get their act together they want to kill each other over popeyes chicken sandwich have a shirt on with free this criminal and that criminal commit the most murder in the country and wonder why they are not as successful as white people nygga please

@@rockjm9876543210are u racist

jimmy johnson played G at Arkansas .. all American too

Of course it was racist. Go back and look at the debate Skip was basically saying Tom Brady was better than all you black guys. It was certainly a jab. Ray Charles could see that.

​@flojohighperformancemotorc6263 it was not. Skip Bayless is not racist. He's an idiot talking head that knows nothing about the in-game mechanics of any sport. He has a borderline obsession with LeBron and loves him as much as he loves Brady. Call him a know-nothing idiot, but he's defnot racist. If you want a fun video to watch, go watch the video of Mark Cuban verbally destroying Skip for not knowing anything about how basketball works lol

A racist man. not a racist, man.

"Put your glasses back on!." sounded racist to me.

I agree.

It’s not wat u say…it’s actually how u sayit so don’t try to act as if it wasn’t a racist moment

@@Aintitmane1000 Do you know anything about their show? They talk back and forth about different subjects...Was this subject the last thing they were doing that day or the first or was it in the middle? You are telling me that wasn't something he said to [de-escalate] the situation [in a very nervous way] because they have another hour or more of the show left to tape that day and he wasn't going to have Shannon Sharpe be heated at him at the same level for every subject for the rest of the recording. Oh right, I forgot you just watched a isolated clip and made a bunch of assumptions because of the editing and your own racial prejudices.

@@purplecurious9568 you can have your opinion all u want but it doesn’t change the fact that it was a racist moment that took place…hatred is a strong thing to hide smh too bad u too blind to c it in ur heart

My question is, if you're not racist, why defend claims of racism?

@@BigFrankD112 It's the boy who cried wolf story, making a big deal about non racist incidents detracts from the severity of genuine racism.

@kevin perry so again I ask, why are you defending claims of racism? Whether genuine or not? How do you compare this to a situation of a liar(the boy who cried wolf was a liar)? Again, he is giving his perspective from his experience, not trying to play a trick on someone by lying. What is it you're defending? The other person being white/caucasian? Are you trying to define racism for someone else?

@@BigFrankD112 He doesn't even catagorise it as racism he says its "borderline" and if your going to use that as evidence then all kinds of things are going to bury the genuine racial problems in the western world. All this line of thinking does is allow the real racists to operate freely.

@@BigFrankD112 Hold on what type of logic is that if you aren’t a racist why defend claims of racism?? Bro because no one likes to get called a racist it’s like getting called a P*dophile some shit I’m not one but I still don’t wanna get called one? 🤡

Calling Skip that for comparing careers of two athletes was asinine.

​@@zechariahcameron3645that wasn't the comparing of the careers. It was how Skip came off. Dude acts like Tom Brady is his long lost father

I love how blck people act like whte people are all racist just because our skin is lighter. Cough cough better

​@@booboodafoo3247huh?

@@booboodafoo3247nah g brothers would never switch to be a white dude are you kidding?? Fuck no! !! You can keep that shit that burns up in the sun

He only busted his balls if you got game that wouldnt bother you

He said it was boardline race not in fact racist-- so he logically gives Skip the caveat that so many wouldn’t.

rewind it. Clear as day

Ur the ppl he talking about

I'm sure he did

Are you white?

Just because you're tired of hearing the word, that doesn't mean that racism doesn't exist.

I don't think it was racists but you have to live in a Black man's world to understand why he said it. He's from Florida so maybe anything that may touch his nerve brings him back to a HURT PLACE where he felt the heat of blatant racism

And 95% of anyone on tv speaking about anything. Great point.

@Tyleem Reid your thinking about it wrong. Your never going to be able to get around “experiencing” something compared to someone reading about it or watching it from a far. It’s levels to everything. Skip doesn’t give the respect for the player’s experience. He talks as if he’s the authority, like they are peers on the sports field and they are not. The GM from Golden State has the power to cut players and draft players but he understands and respects he can shoot the ball/play the game like Steph Curry.

African folks only think about themselves 🚬😳

u mean all those former players that are now coaching and all those former coaches that are now running front offices? I don't think Emmitt was referring to John lynch lol

​@Brandon I don't think he meant reporters shouldn't be allowed to report about sports. He was saying people like skip Bayless and and Stephen Smith should not be considered "experts" by any stretch of the imagination

Some people could make toilet paper choice about race .

Yeah everything was ON POINT , until that last part 😂. That came outta left field for sure lol

Only whites use the term “race card” which is telling in itself. You can only play the cards you’re dealt, and from the ignorance within these comments, you all deal a lot of shit cards, then try to gaslight. To even be a white man who never played a sport a day in his life, trying to discredit a HALL OF FAME retired black man’s career or talent whilst uplifting a white mans, when it’s TWO DIFFERENT POSITIONS, is vastly telling to US. And that’s not changing. It reminds me of when a white coworker tried to state Justin Timberlake was a better dancer than Chris Brown. All I had to say was, um no he isn’t” and the white coworker responded “no you’re right youre right”. 😂 then why try to spit the bs in the first place ?? It’s called micro agressive white pretentiousness. And Shannon Sharpe had time that day.

​@@JustinQuarles not really. People talk about things they haven't experienced directly all the time, and we don't question them. Truth is athletes often have the worst sports takes

I hate when a person’s reality of a situation gets dismissed. If you are not black in America, I see how you wouldn’t think racism couldn’t be involved. And for those Black in America, this situation was classic micro aggression because I am black.

True but he said borderline racist

Idk this for a fact, but I'm sure he came on before Skip disrespected Shannon?

Emitt playing the victim card 🚬😐

@@goodnightmunchie keep crying in comment section 🚬

​@@akimbesswoods3149 keep crying racism like a broad

I honestly think he is just deeply insecure that he never played and knows Shannon and others are much better at breaking down the game. That’s why he gets all defensive and weird sometimes. I think there’s a good guy in there under the surface tho.

He said borderline....and he said the optics . Meaning that it could be viewed that way not that it necessarily is that way.

@@rolio9775 I think it was ridiculous for smith to even mention the word “racism” in this😂😂🤷‍♂️makes no sense how that crossed his mind

@@raymondsims7042 your entitled to your thoughts.However he was just stating the obvious.Not everyone is familiar with Skip as a person or his antics so it is quite possible someone viewing this without the necessary background on him,based on just the optics could come to that conclusion(that he's a closet racist). Doesn't mean he is just means everyone has a different perspective on things.

Sarcasm 😂😂😂

Dude had an oline that was like no other though I’m a giant fan he’s an all time great but he ain’t the goat 🐐

he was good until he added racism in there

So basically you shouldn't be able to criticize cops, lawyers, doctors, politicians, and any other profession based on the eye test even though you've never been one.

Thats bc skip is a 💯 texan

exactly, even Emmitt will tell you Barry sanders and Walter Payton were better than him. Just goes to show how much skip knows about the sport...

It has everything to do with it how can you speak on what it takes to play football or the mentality or the intricacies of game without having played the game and Skip speaks in such absolutes it nasty 😑

Do you know a lot about being a medical doctor? You seem to downgrade athletes profession. I feel like I can go to college to be an engineer and I can do their job, but I don't downgrade engineers. Why do people like you possess that mindset?

@@far7rom you know, slavery is not exclusive to black people. Native Americans were slaves and no one cares, Jews were slaves many times as recently as WW2, during the Roman Empire they took slaves from many nations they conquered and forced them to fight to the death (gladiators), others turned to sex slaves and others to be servants to the wealthy, many of whom were white as snow, from all over Europe and Asia. The Egyptians, Persians, Babylonians just to mention a few were all huge on the slave trade and none of them were of white race. Learn your history, slavery is not about color it’s about power, conquest and human cruelty. You probably one of the many who think everyone in Africa is black, when in fact Africa is one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse continents in the world. Egypt is in Africa, many Arab nations are in Africa, Sudáfrica are mainly white. Africa is not composed of Nigeria and Congo only… I suggest that people educate themselves, the American education system has failed you greatly. Wasted tax dollars. Btw just so you know many black African nations are big participants of slave trafficking. Stop victimizing black people and start empowering them by educating so they can escape poverty.

You a real one for going against the grain. Keep being yourself fam, refuse to be herded.
