“It Was A Shock They Pushed Shannon Out” | Skip Bayless Says He Was Surprised When Former Debate Partner Shannon Sharpe Left FS1’s “Undisputed”

Longtime sports analyst Skip Bayless has been in the business for nearly 50 years. Two months removed from leaving FS1, Bayless is now speaking out on how things with former debate partner Shannon Sharpe  pretty much soured him on continuing the show after one year apart. The 72-year-old, who’s now in search of a new partner to kick off his new YouTube debate show, recently spoke with The Washington Post on what’s next for him.  In his comments Bayless oddly makes it sound like he didn’t have anything to do with Sharpe’s departure in June 2023. While he may not have been the only, his actions definitely played a role in the Pro Football Hall of Famer’s decision, or demise, as Bayless put in his interview with the newspaper’s Ben Strauss. His version of what happened pales in stark comparison to Sharpe’s, and that’s where the disconnect lies.  Skip Bayless says he lost his love for the game after FS1 pushed out his debating partner, Shannon Sharpe“My heart was no longer in it because I didn’t want Shannon to leave, and I fought for him to stay. It was a shock they pushed Shannon out.”(Via @washingtonpost / h/t… pic.twitter.com/hp9MMQiCoO— NBACentral...
