"They applaud what you do Dez... They don't applaud who you are..." Damn Shannon dropping smooth gems...

[@HISTORE-EDJCOMICS]

Tyquan Wright Well said Shannon!

[@medicineman1202]

I love listening to Shannon

[@betdat9195]

👊🏿Dam good qoute

[@asundelgun3487]

anyone that quotes Charles Barkley in race relations is going the wrong direction

[@RomeoAlphaDelta]

Mr Watkins, who does boys, would rather live in the past and feel validated by racism. And he likes his own posts. lol

[@asundelgun3487]

RomeoAlphaDelta ???? wtf are you talking about

[@arturoluna475]

Dubois Watkins I would say he's qualified to talk about his experience as a black man on account of it being his experience and him being a black man

[@asundelgun3487]

Arturo Luna ok

[@asundelgun3487]

Arturo Luna majority? How would you know that? You wouldn't

[@rlbrown65]

"Next time you SPEAK UP, make sure you READ UP..." Nuff said.

[@betdat9195]

🤜🏿🤛🏿

[@gregsomebody7247]

Sharpe dropping knowledge and wisdom.

[@lakers84]

everytime the topic is race Skip "i know im just a white guy"

[@pamisjamming]

Shannon Sharpe is a very sharp intelligent man.

[@DjGaiden]

Jerry Jones: ugghhh they ain't talking bout us no mo!!! Dez: Don't worry.. I got it.

[@donaldtiredofwinning1634]

Dez Bryant is a idiot

[@fulaan1]

Kings Of The Vox maybe

[@Nick243120]

😂😂😂😂 ima Dallas fan

[@SPKing-pn1by]

Kings Of The Vox lmfao!!! Dead on bro!! They had to reach for this one hu?

[@death4827]

Kings Of The Vox lmfaoo whether it's a player on the team, Jerry jones, or anything that involves someone or something that has to do with the Dallas cowboys even if it has nothing to do with football they gon be in the headlines every week lmfao

[@kevingrant9762]

I Just want to share this with everyone I swear. You a great man Sharpe

[@betdat9195]

Yes sir 🙏🏿

[@derrickbatts8412]

Shannon speaking truth to power

[@RomeoAlphaDelta]

Actually, he is speaking intelligently, but incorrectly, on the subject at hand. And he is speaking to Skip Bayless, who is not power. I deleted the rest. Triggered by this ignorance. Personal apologies to Monroe.

[@derrickbatts8412]

RomeoAlphaDelta he's speaking indirectly about white supremacy and how it still control all things globally. Quite frankly your opinion means nothing to me because you're a white privileged individual trying to explain to a non white person how they should think or feel. Your opinion is irrelevant to me. It's hilarious how Caucasian people got all the answers to how blacks should feel. Your voice don't even matter to me matter face let me block you now.

[@derrickbatts8412]

RomeoAlphaDelta Dipshit.

[@zerocool5074]

You're brainwashed by leftist, keep voting democrat, look at all the change it's brought? Wait, nothing! One of the biggest problems facing Americans is the lack of fathers in the home.

[@derrickbatts8412]

Zero Cool I don't live by these so called terms so leftist rightist it's all white supremacy in my eyes.

[@iwishinew9707]

"They love you for what you do, not for who you are". Respect to Shannon for stating this. I think superstars forget how hard it is. Since they can throw hundreds at any problem they come across.

[@SheedJB]

"They applaud what you do Dez, not what you are". Damn Shannon!

[@InfiniteUmbra]

Shannon is spectacular when it comes to things like this. Such an intelligent man.

[@omaritee5148]

shannon is as real as they come

[@devinyounggooch]

Shannon Sharpe is a straight legend my favorite

[@mandelabarrolle9167]

Shannon Sharpe! THANK YOU!

[@badude11]

Well said Shannon. right on!!!!!

[@MrJDR_]

Shannon is the best person sitting opposite Skip, EVER. PERIOD.

[@dontex7]

Shannon is on point as usual 👍

[@RomeoAlphaDelta]

on point with negativity? yep. 👌

[@SBelle84]

dontex7 on point with sense, common sense which some of y'all lack

[@Dolemite19]

SBelle84 common sense that u don't have👎👎

[@RED-yw7ov]

So do you suggest he displays ignorance to reality in the future? Would that be more comfortable and in line with your views, instead of all this "negativity"?

[@andrewsolis2988]

dontex7 Not really...black people dont even like other black people until they want to riot then it they are best buds. After the smoke clears it is back to hating other black people and for some reason hate the white man again I no longer take black activists seriously now days. Much respect to MLK...he had it right but what have black people done in his honor??? Have kids out of wedlock...black men leave the home...black teens decide to not go to school or college even unless it is sports related. Heaven forbid they study and read. Nobody to blame but yourselves and that is the truth

[@corneliustalley5059]

Shannon i hope you read this post. I WANT YOU TO KNOW. IT'S A TRUE BLESSING TO HAVE YOUR VOICE ON T.V. SPEAKING TO AND UP FOR OUR PEOPLE. I PRAY THAT GOD WILL GIVE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HIS BEST BLESSINGS. THANK YOU SIR AND PLEASE KEEP BEING THE MAN YOU ARE. LOVE YOU BRO!!!!

[@tomikawoods3184]

Thank you Mr. Sharpe. I have nothing but the utmost respect for you.

[@tthomaselli2]

"I judge a man by how that man treats me, not his race.". --Shannon Sharpe.

[@jzmmm]

I like how shannon's thoughts constantly interrupt what he's saying

[@jonathanbarnette3088]

Shannon Sharpe could not be more right. Nothing but respect for him to tell it how it is.

[@lordX39]

I have heard Mr. Sharp speak many times, this is by far his highest and loudest cry yet... I ask that Dez, and all who think like Dez and the l Charles Barkley's​ of the World, to hear Shannon's voice...

[@writeone6665]

they applaud what you do, not who you are! you nailed it Shannon!

[@myshirt84]

Skip is a legend.

[@RomeoAlphaDelta]

in his own mind.

[@phillipcollins3288]

lol no he's not

[@Weeeeee711]

let me guess..I'm watching now and he'll say "I'm going to disqualify myself..."

[@CapoG21519]

i had no clue how bright... excuse me.. brilliant Shannon Sharpe IS!!!!! I am proud of my ppl who achiev e this level of Conciousness!!!!! Thank you God( I AM THAT I AM) For this stage so he can edify the unlearned. Thanks my brother for speaking the truth. Much love and respect!

[@Number1Dougster]

Shannon Sharpe is about as sharp as a bowling ball. This guy is so incoherent it's pathetic. If he wasn't an ex-jock he wouldn't be allowed to work at the drive-though at McDonalds.

[@CoolPapaCash]

And if you weren't white neither would you.

[@Number1Dougster]

Wrong as usual.

[@Alexander_McDoneaux]

Shannon SPEAK THAT FIRE BRUH. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@armyone90]

We need more brothers like Shannon.

[@javiergodsarmy7058]

MAN! Shannon gets it! Thank god, someone is keeping it real. Lord knows Stephen A wouldn't touch the reality of this subject in a million years. #sellout

[@markbuchs423]

you just proved Dez Bryants comments correct. black people are their own worst enemy.

[@javiergodsarmy7058]

Mark Buchs False. White man forcing us to shun our own is the worst enemy.

[@thesportstakeout1717]

Javier #blitzforsix Soooooo the "white man" is now forcing you to have opinions a specific way? If you don't agree, then why not change it? Trying to blame white people for every problem you have isn't going to get you far. Black people have every same right as a white man does. That's a fact and not an assumption.

[@javiergodsarmy7058]

The Sports Takeout I dont argue with blind sheep who have their head in the sand, sorry. Did you really just say a black man has every right that a white man does? LMAO!!! I've been pulled over constantly just for driving a nice car down south and my vehicle is searched for drugs even though I've never done them. It's called racial profiling. Read a book.

[@javiergodsarmy7058]

The Sports Takeout Lmao I'm successful and have a great life, I don't need to blame white people for my life, but guess what? It's bigger than me. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a support system like I had, but society tries to defeat minorties and ruin their futures daily! You obviously wouldnt know about that so I'm glad you're removing yourself from this conversation.

[@rainclouds1188]

Well said Shannon, love your commentary!

[@cholli4141]

Dez Bryant, thank you for saying this. We know what side you're on now.

[@tyemimms2184]

preach Shannon

[@lenbuddah1]

perfectly spoken Mr.Sharp..keep teachin brother!!

[@jasontisdale6481]

I totally agree and love Sharpes point of view, it was hands down dead on point.

[@525672ify]

Right on Mr. Sharpe 🎤 💪🏽👍🏽 speak Thank you and grandma too!!!

[@voskiwoskipeeskiweesi4625]

Shannon Sharpe and Charles Barkley both have white women....

[@DavidLee-vp3nr]

Joe walsh just cosigned Dez bryant.. lmao So cringe-worthy.... "Anytime a bigot like Joe Walsh gives you a cosign you know you're doing something wrong"

[@gsmd770]

Love Shannon! The brother is the truth!!!!

[@DSWITE]

Thank you Shannon for ur thoughts...Major pts bro

[@MysticMech]

Mr. Sharpe. You just got my respect! Not that you need it. But, you spoke the truth. And it was refreshing to hear. Raw and honest. Thank you.

[@Alexander_McDoneaux]

The point my dawg Shannon was making, is that our past adversities have crippled up to succeed. Due to being targeted, it is limited our productivity. How can we be accountable for something we have no control over? 🤔🚶🏾🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@raider1297]

AlexKamal Mediocrity personified LOLOLOLOL

[@barbshouse6348]

Tell Skip that he was respectful in just listening

[@hiphopotamus69]

Shannon has the same point of view as Magneto

[@ronaldk.wileyjr.5476]

Always know Shannon... U got this man's support. Stay strong brotha. 💪

[@jkr527]

RIGHT ON!!!!

[@PureTouchJohnson]

Skip handled this situation perfect instead of trying to belittle or sidestep the words of a sufferer of the system he just listened and placed a little bit of his perspective on it

[@SBelle84]

Shannon is educated!

[@groverscruggsjr.9400]

Great quote: They applaud what you do, now who you are..... WOW

[@lawrencegraves6265]

Shannon's perspective on Barkley aged well

[@JamesBond-nz4mt]

“You want me to come up with a solution that you help put me in

[@cltjohnny8292]

real talk

[@j-real7233]

I have a new found respect for Shannon Sharpe after seeing his response to Dez's Instagram comments about racism.

[@eman-gp2kl]

PREACH

[@geewizz41]

thank you Shannon Sharpe for setting it straight you are God sent

[@ListenTV51]

"Before you SPEAK up..you READ up" Shannon Shannon Shannon POWER to you my man. Is minds like your's our society (world) needs all day, every day and twice a day on educational topics like this. Thanks for being as brilliant as you're day in and day out. Keep up the excellent work and please don't ever hold back on speaking the TRUTH!! It might cost you your career somewhere down the line for educating a segment of the population through your brilliant and very articulate way of speaking the TRUTH. I'm saying you might loose your career over speaking the TRUTH, because an intelligent and very articulate guys like you debunks the narratives of anything other the Caucasian race is less human and incapable of reaching the highs of highs. So when an intelligent guy like you shows up all clean cut, no earrings, piercings, tattoos and is as articulate, it frighten them and they'll find any and all kinds of way to get rid of you. They don't want people like you having a voice. They want the punks like Dez Bryant(s), DMX(s) Flavor Flav(s) of our community on TV and speaking as a way of proving their narratives of caucasian superiority...so I'm layman's terms, THANKS for the schooling

[@ken-ct2rk]

great shannon

[@Sampson_Matt_]

I love having Shannon on television man. God I really do.

[@justbo1754]

I've have never posted on ANY KZbin video. But I have to applaud Shannon on his well thought out and very concise view point. Alot you said I would use as to how to handle any racist or demeaning situtation. I am a minority but not Black. I have family that are and have my own bouts with racism through my own life. Thank you for addressing this issue. It helps me! I would never have taken any sports figures view point to use in my own life but your words really touch bases with me. Once again Thank You! Sam Kala

[@medicineman1202]

Shannon should have his own radio show

[@MrShepification]

man, i love this guy. Thank you Shannon.

[@golf-rg6bw]

Ditto.

[@henrykleckley2466]

This is why I love Shannon Sharpe. Powerful!

[@tipp0183]

oddly enough i got the understanding that Skip got. I didn't get the feeling that Dez was saying that black people are making excuses like shanon is painting it as.

[@o0O420]

DAMN!!!!

VGQ! "If you do not understand White Supremacy (Racism) - what it is and how it works - everything else you understand will only confuse you." Neely Fuller, Jr. - The United Independent Compensatory Code/System/Concept

[@Deb.-on9ep]

That was deep!

[@hthtv3440]

@G.W.: what about it? What you call "black supremacy," has never enslaved millions of white ppl, any ppl. 'Black Supremacy', has never created #JimCrow or #Segregation...and made them 'laws'. Whatever you consider 'black supremacy', it can't put on a uniform and get away with killing multiple unarmed white ppl. Thus, what ever 'it' is...sounds like it's harmless to me. And if you mentioned 'black on black' crimes; those culprits are usually sent to prison for those crimes; and again, they don't statistically speaking harm white folks. Honestly speaking, that's *what* about it.

[@Shahzebnaeemminhas]

I love the way skip always clarifies that he gives his side of the view when it comes to such matters.

[@leesimone2]

Personal accountability does equal to self centereness. I am over this corrupted thinking that the only way to be accomplished is to self hate. Success and wealth comes from selflessness and empowering others...not from hurting others in anyway.

[@zachg3599]

Can we forget about our negative pasts and love, and help each other out?? I'm talking to every race.

[@KingHondro]

DOPE!!!!!!!!!

[@MrJDR_]

I love the fact UNDISPUTED has SHANNON Mr. SHARPE on the SHOW.

[@ladyj28]

Shannon you are the true. Well said.

[@dredrock2877]

Salute to Sharpe educate the one who need it!!

[@FinessedAnalyzer]

Sharpe is a real dude!

[@sethclass7414]

Shannon Sharp is real much props to you stay strong !

[@Frazful]

6:24 ABSOLUTE TRUTH

[@PH-lr2mp]

Good speech Shannon

[@4thQuarterMentality]

PREACH SS!!!

[@eliteoutlaw3210]

love Shannon Sharpe.

[@tipp0183]

i got something completely different from what Shannon got.

[@LuvingMan]

Mr. Sharpe - teach sir!

[@tobbywolves]

its great to know your past but its not alright to live in the past. also its not right to use your past history as a hateful tool and weapon against society/ other races either mr shannon sharpe. and as far as accountibility goes your right on when you say about corporate but wroing on black people, i agree that every man should be held accountable for their actiuons and behavior no matter the race

[@HQBN]

Say what you want about Dez Bryant; but at least he's trying to talk about something positive and uplift Black youth. He's telling people that you can become something in spite of your color or circumstances. The stuff Shannon is saying is the same stuff that is keeping us down; pointing at slavery and Jim Crow. How does that help a kid navigate the waters of 2017? How does this help him succeed and get a job?

[@kevinkidd7211]

Deep

[@JGfitzz]

Dez, done drank the Kool Aid !!!

[@SincereSPB]

What was thicker this segment? The air or joy?

[@la3g462]

God bless and protect Mr. Sharpe

[@tipp0183]

he's talking about holding yourself accountable for your success now. he's not talking about accountability for the history of slavery, he's talking about personal success.

[@haroldalston3349]

Shannon speaks truth to power. And he's not afraid

[@bvbxiong5791]

slavery isn't keeping you in ghettos; you're keeping you in ghettos. slavery isn't forcing you to leave your children so they grow up fatherless; you're leaving your children so they grow up fatherless. slavery isn't forcing you to sag your pants or talk ghetto so you won't get a professional career, you're choosing to sag your pants and speak ghetto. slavery isn't forcing you to make fun of and deride blacks who get good grades and speak well; you're choosing to discourage a positive culture and instead nuture a culture of hate and violence and crime.

[@vyshawnforeman8384]

Sharpe always speaks the truth

[@FireHawk3]

Shannon is so smart

[@supersaiyanjin2199]

i judge a man by how he treats me not by his race... shannon sharpe on point per usual

[@medicineman1202]

Shannon, you are my idol!

[@lamarthart8626]

Hey Dez, what was your response to being accountable for being released by the Cowboys?

[@willallen9471]

Shannon for President!!

[@seanjohn864]

Shannon Sharpe is on point always,furthermore they will remove him

[@kevrob53]

"They applaud what you do they don't applaud who you are". Enough said.

[@terrywilson8240]

eloquently said Shannon

[@kennethreed23]

damn Shannon went there

[@lachronic7821]

Why did Dez post this?
