Everyone does not want to note that skip expressed concern and condolences before the tweet that everyone is freaking out about. People just want something to be mad at. He did not mean anything malicious by the tweet.

[@spikenomoon]

I Agree but his take on depression and don’t talk about it if your a leader is just mind boggling. If he was my quarterback I would respect him for that and I’m sure there’s others on the team who would open up so it can be handled before it’s not. Okay 👌

Think about it...a black parent raised that hateful non-black-man. All the caring that the black woman had could not change this hateful man. There is a distinct difference between ethnicities when it comes to CARING & KILLING. Black people ate among the best behaved people on earth when it comes to caring & very little wars or killing. Just ask your real history books & not the fake history books made after slavery supposedly ended.

I honestly don’t have a problem with what skip tweeted I think it was blown way out of proportion. I also thought he was within his right to defend himself when Shannon mentioned the tweet. I thought it was out of line when he called Shannon a bum compared to Tom Brady. That’s crossing the line

[@trinalewis6489]

Did he call him a bum?? Damn

[@bradleybrown8399]

but not to interrupt him to do it. Shannon was speaking, and this wasn't a game or team debate. Skip doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut.

[@shayslay3416]

If there was nothing wrong with the tweet why get offended when someone brings it up just to say he doesn't regret it? Lol if he doesn't regret it then it should've been ok to bring up without an adverse reaction.

[@johnb3898]

@@shayslay3416 well if you he actually listened Skip was confused as to why Shannon brought it up because they seemingly agreed that Shannon was going to focus on the football aspect and not the tweet that was blown out of proportion by idiots. Even Shannon noted that, but he still made a mention about the tweet and even said he wish Skip would take it down. Skip had every right to say what he said after being blindsided like that

[@dukestandard4743]

He's only "tone deaf" with certain people, boy has no problem using Tom Brady martial problems as an excuse for this year though...

[@generalinformation3507]

I don't know why we all can't say it, skip is a bigot. He's 70 something years old, he comes from a time where he didn't see That many black players in sports. He definitely did not see black quarterbacks or coaches. He just longs for the thrilling days of yesteryear🤷🏿

[@selfdefensept]

Personally, I have always felt Skip Bayless was a jerk. He is the classic example of why with very few exceptions, only former professional athletes should be sports casters. Many of these non-athletes are simply jealous of people who can do things they never could, and they are often clueless about the nuances of the sport. He is overly impressed with himself and there is NOTHING impressive about him. He should get the boot.

[@andrewkircher8261]

The broader point here I think, is we shouldn't just allow someone to continue to be tone deaf and insensitive just because that's the personality he established back when we were all first introduced to him. Skip has been cringe to watch with no real substance to his arguments for a long time. Seeing the comments that just cry cancel culture and turning this around on the athletes shows that we still have a long way to go when it comes to changing the discourse and the level of dehumanizing that we allow for the sake of entertainment. You can have a great argument that makes for good debate tv without being disrespectful and tone deaf. We should require more from the people we give our attention to.
