And what people don’t realize is that it’s all an act. Skip is the executive producer and creator of the show and controls every single question. He did it for both shows. … he plays the he’ll like Vince McMahon, and his partner is the stone cold or the rock. Skip was a brady Hater, when the league fell in love with a young rookie quarterback … then everyone hated Brady because he was winning too much and wouldn’t you know it skip was the biggest Brady fan. When LeBron James was at his peak, and both political aisles loved him, Skip was a Hater. Skip writes himself as the bad guy because that is long-term easier to control and write. It’s much easier to run everything behind the scenes when you can just be a bad guy and if you screw it, take up and say something stupid it works in your favor . The ratings had gotten stagnant

But he understood how important it was for him to be the heel and it worked.

I feel this is a common issue with a mentor. Skip encouraged Shannon to develop. And after a certain point Shannon grew into his own personality and was not going to dim that light for Skip. Skip feels a certain way as he helped Shannon initially. But after a certain point you got to step aside or let them go. Skip wasn't ready for either and I feel that is where the disrespect from Skip began to surface. I wonder what Chael vs Skip would look like.

Skip never offered up an apology, and Shannon is a proud man.

Ric was always the guy you loved to hate, he brought attention and made stars everywhere he went, and that is exactly the type of career that Skip has had

I love how Stephen a and Max had the same type break up except a Max and Steve and they actually disliked each other, but steve and I got very little backlash but because skip is so good at playing the heel he’s the bad guy…. How about the ratings got stagnant? How about the debate format is not designed for long-term partnership, because the debates get stale…. Did no one read that Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith almost did another show together two years ago.? Go, watch the last episode, go watch every podcast you can about people talking about skip in real life … every single person that’s worked with him since he’s a standup guy who would give the shirt off his back. Chris Broussard, Shannon Sharpe, Stephen A, Smith, Colin Coward, Joy, Taylor….. all of them came because of skip. When you’re the junior partner in a debate format once that five year window is up and the debates are getting old you either move up and start your own show like Stephen A Smith, and now Shannon Sharpe or they move you down like Max Kellerman …. Shannon became a star and Max didn’t.
