I don't know if its just me or not, but I really like this guy.  Think he knows his shit, knows whats up with everything.  I think he just tells it the way it is and think he would be a great addition to Monday Night Football.  Take Kornhole out and add Skip anyone with me?

Are you drinking already Whods? This guy is a pompus Ass.. I like him at times, most of the time he says something outlandish just to start controversy....
 
I had a few emails back with him back in 2001 when he talked shit on the Sixers when they played the Lakers...

At times he is funny and knows his shit but there are other times where I would like to punch him in the face cause he can be a jackass....

U R kidding me right? This guy is a zero trying to be a one. There is a reason he is on daytime TV. He is a whining little D-bag.

I think the talent pool is running low. 
Madden must have a driver on payroll by now
Kornheiser I can stand on PTI, but in the booth I'd love to choke him
Then we have to deal with people like Schlereth and Rome.

Where's Jim Everett when you need a guy to knock someone else over?

Not kidding, I always value his opinion.  I don't know if you guys watch him daily or not.  I watch him on a daily basis his predictions are mostly dead on, he always takes account for when he is wrong.  He always makes great points, I don't know why he catches such bad reviews.

He does know his stuff, but NO WAY should I have to listen to him on a Monday night too.

If you have any of the same qualities and characteristics as Skip Bayless, please go ahead and do us all a big favour by killing yourself.

Being like Skip isn't exactly a badge of honour.  He is one of the most intolerable figures on ESPN, amongst many of the other blowhards the worldwide leader carries in their stable.  His problem is that he always has to take a strong side on an issue regardless of whether or not it is contentious.  He just likes screaming and yelling for the sake of screaming and yelling regardless of whether or not the discussion merits so.  Ultimately it's just annoying and his act wares thin with a lot of people including myself.

I agree he was like that in the beginning, he isn't really like that anymore, whether they told him to tone down or not.  In my opinion, he is one of the most tolerable figures on ESPN.  I'd much rather listen to him, over any of the idiots on Around the Horn, although I do like Mr Paige.  Everytime he is on I listen, I just think he knows what he is talking about, maybe sometimes he is a little extravagant in his views but he definitely catches my attention, which is hard to do.

Not cool at all, but if I don't care, you shouldn't.  He didn't tell you to kill yourself, just me to kill myself.  I'm to vain for that

Skip Bayless is as close-minded as they come....if it's not his perspective, it's wrong...he always likes to gloat when he's right, but never takes responsibility for his horrible calls....dude's always making excuses when someone calls him out, and he never openly listens to others...he acts like a 3 yr old in an argument by always raising his voice, talking out of turn, and getting all angry when someone disagrees with him...he should not be on TV at all, but it's a shame, b/c ppl like you enjoy his antics, so he'll remain on TV

I'm sorry KILL is a very strong word.  But you should be slapped a few times because Skip Bayless is a huge d-bag.

I just watched an episode where he admitted being wrong twice?  So he never admits guilt?  I guess your right

Slapped thats even worse, then saying killed, who should slap me, you?  Or if not who?  I'd love to see someone try and come slap me.  That could get very interesting quick!

Yeah I base everything I do on Skip Bayless?  These responses are fucking comical.  Makes me wonder why I waste time trying to help some of you guys out. I know I do just fine for myself.  I have an opinion and always stick with it.  I don't listen to other people for my plays or anything,  I say I value his opinion on other things.

Skip is awesome. He went to vandy. Gotta love it. Though i will say, that if he did not have any affiliation to my alma mater, i probably would thing he is an arrogant jackass.

i enjoy listening to him on First Take. Everyone around him reminds me of the public and him being the Sharp.  He is arrogant, but has some very good points that most analysts dont bring up. If it werent for him, first take wouldnt be shit. He debates everyone else and that makes the show
