I'm glad Shannon gets to keep his podcast...
He still haven't give one example on why he thinks Shannon is a coon..

My assessment: Father time is undefeated, and Skip just cannot compete at this level anymore. The morning slot of a TV sports network is where the deadliest of the killers are, and Skip used to be that, but he just got old, plain and simple. He can't handle the rapid fire that Shannon, or Steven A, or anyone brings at that time slot.
He just needs to move to a slower time slot or focus on podcasting. He is to old for the morning slot now. Shannon is not a young man in real life, but he is definitely a young man in the sports news studio. He is only 7 years on and still hungry and is just reaching his prime. Skip just can't keep up and he knows it, that's why he resorts to personal shots. He is frustrated. It happens.

Wasnt a better back and forth than him and skip.
Hate to see it but I guess it had to end somewhere.

That mother fucker deleted the tweet
He's going to hire some nutless Tim Scott simp. The ratings are going to Tumble and Tumble because Shannon sharpe was entertaining, and truth be told Shannon sharpe carried that show
If they bring some nutless Tim Scott simp that shit is going to be boring.

Here it is: 
Yea i stopped watching Sports Shows and years ago and Undisputed was my favorite.
Hell i even stopped watching the NBA & NFL a couple years ago and i'm still tryin to figure out why.
Been watchin that shit since i was 10.
I could no longer take the Lebron/Brady/Cowboys talk 24/7, sports talk became repetitive and a waste of time unfortunately.Yea i stopped watching Sports Shows and years ago and Undisputed was my favorite.

Nah that would be seen as unprofessional, I'm sure he wants to but that would hurt him in his future business deakings
Yeah I just go to YouTube and watch segments now, I remember watching these sports shows and they'd talk about the same Lebron/Brady/Cowboys game/situation but change the wording in the topic..lol
Dawgggg that Irvin comment
Mike & Tony...
skip is wild.
shannon: I'm in the Hall of Fame + got 3 rings
skip: So What

Example Jim Rome was good in the 90s but his sizzle fade out
Shannon better stay the hell away from this dude if he's smart.
Stephen A. and Skip are two sides of the same coin IMO.
Shannon has built himself up enough to make his own way, even of it means taking less money to receive more freedom and most importantly piece of mind.

I think he'll wind up a Sirius XM with Pat McAfee leaving which opens up a slot for him. He can do it live from the comfort of his house.
I have to agree with this. I understand some people hate Skip guts, but dude was never as bad as some made him out to be. He been in the game a long time and will keep going. Question now is who do they replace Sharp with? I think Chris Broussard would be good fit. But I think they want someone thats a former pro. That can give insight on that side of things. Marcelus Wallace? Not sure he wants to jump back into the debate arena.First I was likeBut I understand. Shannon don't need that shit. Don't blame him for leaving. He can go do his own thing if that's what he wants.
As for Skip, like it or not, he will be good. He's been doing this since he started with Woody Paige. He is the constant. They will stick someone else on the other side and keep it moving. Villians tend to be the draw.
Where does Sharp go next? I know he already worked at CBS..not sure about ESPN. Could someone like Netfix are Amazon jump in and give him weekly show? Maybe he keeps it's small and independent.
Forgot about PTI..I watched them when they first aired and then after for some years. I think they are more of the exception than the rule. They have both done things on the side and haven't let there egos get in the way. Plus I think the quick format they have prevents them from becoming too invested or heated on any one topic. It's 3 or 4 minutes on most topics and then onto the next.
I like the suggestion Steve Kim made about a decent replacement for shannon would be michael irving. I can see him and skip going at it And being decent TV
Troy Aikman wouldn’t approve of that
I've been curious about Pat McAfee but something won't let me watch his show.
Is the show good.
I watch it everyday...I was skeptical at first but his show is actually good...
The guest along is good...Looks like Pacman will be a staple and Darius Butler is on there alot too...
Plus their guests are top tier - Shaq, Peyton, Shams, Coach Prime, Edgerin James, Calvin Johnson.......I mean the list goes on...
I really started fucking with him hard when he signed that deal with Fanduel and gave a large amount to various non profits (black, white, hispanic, and etc.)
Only problem is they both love the cowboys.
I think the most important difference is decades of friendship and mentorship before the TV show.
FWIW IMO, they don’t go viral as often but I’ll take their 3 minutes on a topic over 15 minutes of Skip vs Shannon or SAS vs whoever any day! The PTI duo is seriously underrated and even after decades on the air their takes seem fresher than the others mainly because they are less contrived.
I think the defamation lawsuit from Brett Favre plays into it to and his house got just got burglarized...
Go ahead Skip, call Kaepernick
