Great video quality bro did his research 💯

Most definitely

[@tayonmitchell5281]

Agreed

[@RedLeo-pf9yo]

I knew for a long time that this was going to eventually happen, because sharps reactions are lightning fast and skip could not hang with you. So I knew that eventually Skip was going to blow up because he felt like he was getting manhandled. But it’s just because sharp is better at the job than skip is.

[@SuperOmnicronsj44]

Did he do his research on how much feminine energy Shannon got? How noisy, annoying and emotional he gets?

[@only1adonis]

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Wise, observant souls know! Stephen A Smith AND Shannon are thinking, “same thing SAS did to Max Kellerman!” Despite the 2018 through 2019 awesomeness. Max says absurd things, and is mostly a boxing expert. But SAS is mostly just entertainment himself. As is Shannon outside of NFL insight

“I won’t be a slave to loyalty” Wow that’s a deep thought! Loyalty can easily blind us.

[@hiddenjocelyn1088]

Most people aren’t loyal at all, that’s what makes sense so great. For the people who do care to do right by those who have helped them, this quote is phenomenal. I have seen countless times many people don’t show loyalty, because they believe in their mind it was owed to them in the first place.

[@AnonymousUser-ss2qr]

lol the more dumb the person the more loyal they are@@hiddenjocelyn1088

[@sekhemasaru5718]

I don’t care about anything but one thing, respect! Everyone that is a real human being 😂 deserves respect, I don’t care about personality, color, and any of the differences we all have, but if you disrespect me and my difference, that’s where I draw the line with you and deal with you accordingly. So to me disrespect is disregard for what or who is different from a consensus or standard, which I care nothing about status quo’s! No one’s fingerprint is the same for example, we all bare some unique differences, respect it and keep it moving.

[@Dev-In-Denver123]

Well the whole thing about loyalty is that you’re kind of a slave to it.. otherwise the meaning simply breaks down. But I think it’s more of a philosophical debate as to whether you want to be loyal to a person or idea or not.

Shannon could seriously end Skip Bayless with one punch.

[@rickbrenner6079]

That would’ve been too easy for Shannon to decide to “resolve” the ongoing verbal battles and “power struggles” on “Undisputed” by getting physical with Skip, a guy he outweighs by about 50 pounds (I would guess) with all of that 50 pounds being dense muscle. Shannon knew nothing good would’ve come from putting his hands on Skip. Although, like u mentioned, it would’ve been hard to blame Shannon for, say . . . grabbing Skip by his lapels, given how Skip took shots at Shannon constantly.

The problem with this situation and in Shannon's own words, is that he did not stand up for himself. Skip, at least in this point in his career, is a performance artist. Skip isn't there to coddle Shannon's feelings, and this is the world that Shannon is now in. Now, not to say that obviously Shannon shouldn't be considered, but if Shannon doesn't speak up for himself (Due to lack of experience, or fear, or whatever else) Skip's going to keep pressing because that's in his nature, that's how his show has always been, that's how he's always been. See, the difference between Stephen A. Smith and Shannon, is that Shannon's an emotional person. Stephen A. Smith has been in the business, he understands how it works, he understands what goes on, and he understands the emotions required to deal with it. Shannon clearly wasn't there at that point. And you can hear it in Shannon's voice. Skip is probably the type of person that does his work, and then washes it off and goes home and lives a normal life, however there are also people like Shannon who take those things to heart, and can't let go of them.

[@goldenstatewarriors9418]

I respect Shannon’s humility and honesty. I love watching him even when I disagree with a lot of his opinions on LeBron, Brady, etc. He’s been killing it. But Stephen A has no right to act “holier than thou.” He clowned and disrespected Max on air for years. Sure maybe it wasn’t as direct and immediate but it was a similar level of disrespect overall. Stephen A openly admits he wanted Max off the show and told the higher ups “it’s him it me.” I would not be shocked if Stephen A starts screaming over him the second he gets more shine than him.

[@flash012234]

Indeed. SAS was the reason why Max left the show, and it was because he couldn't handle what TO said 🤣

[@ronaldmckinney5693]

This isn't about SAS...SB was close to finding out, you just can't keep disrespecting people. This situation is exactly why you have to nip it in the bud,or they will continue pushing their limits.

Shame the way it ended i really enjoyed the passion they gave to topics everyday

[@Docstantinople]

Only wrong move Shannon made in all this is he decided to team up with SAS who will eventually do the same thing Skip did. It’ll happen, mark my words. The more and more Shannon’s popularity increases the mor SAS will start to push Shannon’s buttons like he did to Max. It’ll end too, probably take several years. SAS believe first take is his show and only his and will not allow anyone to be more popular on the show.

[@steeringwheelholder2670]

Dude if it takes 7 yrs it was a success show it’s time to move on

@@steeringwheelholder2670 yeah but the point is not about the show. It’s that people part ways because they are bitter with each other. All Shannon did was press the reset button by leaving Skip and joining SAS.

[@lauriejeter5535]

He kinda did. Go look at the actual interview. Sas asked him if he was wrong. Shannon responded something like you are a journalist and do what u do...more or less...

[@kingstonellington817]

@@bayouboy9292 I don't think SAS tells Shannon Sharpe's business without having an understanding that Shannon was ok with that information coming out. Now did Shannon want to say it himself, no. Shannon recognizes that his being a part of Undisputed was larger than just Skip Bayless. He likely was on good terms with other people involved, and he wouldn't want it to appear that he himself made public any details that were expected to remain private. Stephen A. Smith, however, doesn't have that history with Fox Sports, and he is one of the most, if not the most, powerful men in sports journalism. The way Shannon responded by praising and legitimizing SAS's journalistic skills while saying he will neither confirm or deny tells you all you need to know.

Shannon needs to keep his eye on Stephen A too.

[@Stocky_The_Demi_God]

The ratings are so bad since Sharpe left, that they’re thinking about changing the time that undisputed airs to later time in the day, like around 6pm which is after rush hour, so that more people are home and in hopes that more people will watch the show. This is all Skips fault. I have a feeling that they are going to cancel the show, or offer Sharpe a humongous deal to host his own show on their network.

And still it was the best sports commentary show hands down. They were great together. Skip was wrong many times, but I wish they had worked it out. Great duo!
