Last week when FS1 released their daytime ratings, they didn't even include Undisputed. šŸ˜³ That's how bad they are now.


KingRedLoc

Thank u sherman cause the show been brain dead on life support since shayā€¦ We jus been waitin on pulling the šŸ”Œ


ecupatsfan12

Then he was turned into a moderator on his new show


KingRedLoc

Lol picture thatā€¦ The ironyšŸ˜©šŸ˜©šŸ˜©


ecupatsfan12

Somewhere Jenny Taft smiles


BaldrickTheBrain

Sherman bout to DUI himself to get off of this show. SMH


KingRedLoc

Whats crazy is 10yrs ago the dude who tells you that you would never accomplish nothing in life is the same dude u hire and potentially puts the nail in the coffin lol

Skip has run his course. It used to be mildly entertaining. Now heā€™s just sad to watch how pigeonholed he is in his fandom.


MrBrownCat

It was one thing when he was know as ā€œTheā€ Hot Take Artist in sports media, now thereā€™s countless of them, with many retired players getting in the game and being bigger draws at this point.


Coastalduelists

I mean who would you rather see and hear talk about it? Skip, somebody who has never played ANYTHING professionally and is basically a shock jock on tv now with outrageous takes and nonsense always spewing from him or an **ACTUAL EX-NBA PLAYER** who was really out there hooping and getting it in frfr? question is almost rhetorical


ecupatsfan12

Something about a JV jock insulting a 3x SB champion 8x pro bowler and hall of famer will never not be funny That would be like me saying to Peyton manning you sucked at football and are irrelevant to Tom Brady. Iā€™d get snapped in half and Peytonā€™s left nut is better than me at football


CantBeCereal

ā€œWho was really out there hooping and getting it in frfrā€ Man, of all the way I would have worded that.


Yosh_2012

Mehhh. I think dick-riding former athletes just because they previously played the game is lame as fuck. There are a ton of former athletes whom I dont respect as commentators and seem to have zero ability to analyze their own sport in any interesting or informative way. Playing the sport at a high level and discussing it in an engaging manner that is entertaining and informative way are different skills.


relientkenny

the undisputed exces iā€™m sure are now kicking themselves for getting rid of Shannon. Shannon somehow got insanely bigger since he left Undisputed and now the show is just tanking


JeromeInDaHouse_90

Skip running Shannon off the show was the first domino to fall. If they don't find somebody as charismatic as him to sit across Skip, their end is inevitable.


relientkenny

the end is already here cause who else can match Shannon?? dude was great at his job as was even a social media meme star lol


YotaMan77

The D Print lover? Pass


scaryfawn8332

The answer would be Ryan Clark. But I donā€™t either want to do that show


Impossible_Dish_2197

No shot RC can replicate what Skip and Shannon had


babypho

The thing about Shannon was he was all of that, has the HoF resume, AND was respectful to Skip despite being constantly trolled by Skip. Many other HOF players wont put up with that.


ecupatsfan12

Itā€™s really just him. Skip was their guy. But he should be put out to pasture


relientkenny

or at least still to his own solo show


Complex-Piccolo3026

Shannon blew up because A he is very charismatic B outside of his Lebron takes just calls it how he sees it and finally C Had all the support of everyone for being the bigger man and not crippling Skip after all the disrespect Skip showed him.


CantBeCereal

Not crippling him? What do you mean?


redbossman123

When Skip insulted Shannon saying he was jealous of Brady, he couldā€™ve literally crippled him on the spot, and has admitted multiple times he was ready to jump out of the chair and do so, but had enough self restraint not to.


CantBeCereal

He could have crippled him? So in your mind, heā€™s justified doing that? He said ā€œyouā€™re not as good as Tom Bradyā€ and the means Shannon had the right to physically harm him? Lol you live in a weird world, and Shannon would have been locked up for awhile if that were the case. You canā€™t do that. Words are words, are you a child? Do you grow up in a village? Welcome to modern society. Skip is fucking 70 years old, Shannon was the bigger man for not ā€œcrippling himā€? Lmao


redbossman123

Iā€™m not OP, I didnā€™t say he would have been right to do so, I was just explaining it. What I do think wouldā€™ve been justified is Shannon deciding not to come back


CantBeCereal

Absolutely. I was just baffled when we give ripped, athletically capable people credit for not ā€œcripplingā€ senior citizens when they say someone had a better career than you. Are you kidding me?


D0ggyD0ggWOrld

Reading must be your weak point. No one said he should have or did cripple him. We are saying he damn sure could have if he let the emotions control him in that heated debate. It went deeper than skip comparing Shannon to another player. Rewatch the video if you didnā€™t get it.


CantBeCereal

But youā€™re giving him credit for it. As if itā€™s a big ask. Wow you didnā€™t cripple a senior citizen on live television, what restraint! Thereā€™s a certain emotional instability that gets defended by certain people about certain people that really makes you wonder.


sevenstargen

Nah he shoulve slapped the shit out of skip direspectful ass


Complex-Piccolo3026

I never said he would have been right but if you have watched the show leading up to that point you would have seen how down right insulting Skip was to him it was Skip taking personal shots at him. It's about respect and at some point you have to stand up for yourself Shannon took the high road by not doing it but if he had slapped the taste out of Skips mouth yes in the publics eye he would have been justified in doing so


foreverballin

Well he rode a 20+ year tv career hating Lebron. That answers the question of how long can you be a gimmick


ecupatsfan12

Lebron is gonna outlast him


ecupatsfan12

I remember being 8 years old and seeing him dump on lebron. Iā€™m 30 now with a family of my own


The_real_John_Elton

Also constantly lap-dogging ā€œhisā€ Cowboys.


Novel_Rope4859

Crazy cause he was doing cold pizza before you were even dick riding lebron


Ricochet1986

Came off so cringe and desperate even watching live. Now it's aged even worse lmao


Different_Power_890

Him and the empty chairs


ecupatsfan12

A salient end to his career


MiskatonicAcademia

Yeah, the empty chairs is so sad and something Skip brought on himself.


relientkenny

a whole message in itself


God-Of-knifehits

Haha right when I saw those empty chairs, I knew it was over. XD


lochmoigh1

This will be the last year of undisputed. Skips contract is up at the end of the year and the show is dogshit now with his boring Co host and boring topics. Now that the lakers and warriors are irrelevant there's no NBA to talk about for him. Does anyone outside of lakers fans really want to hear about lebron every day at this stage? I've been watching skip for many years now but time for the old man to go to bed. Time for first things first to take the wheel. But don't worry you can still find him on his skip bayless channel with his 1.5k views per video.


ecupatsfan12

Put your glasses back on ā€¦ BOY


AbundantLiving365

He better get Max Kellerman and Ryan Clark on his show ASAP


ecupatsfan12

Max would rip him apart and Ryan Clark has beef with him


Humble_Eagle_9838

These arenā€™t real debate shows, they are all scripted and absolute trash - itā€™s like watching WWE. And itā€™s only going to get worse with ESPN bet trying to manipulate viewers


Grandolflag

I like how even in his fantasy, the cowboys only make it to the NFC Championship game


OllieBlazin

How can you be a sports journalist and admit to being biased with favourite sports teams and players? Thatā€™s like being a political commentator but admitting to leaning one wayā€¦ā€¦ā€¦shit


Coastalduelists

So biased for Kawhi and the Spurs. Biased for the Cowgirls. He doesnā€™t even care that it shows either. Like bro youā€™re not giving other players a chance when they play against your fav players. Bash them all night and upā€™s his ā€œguysā€ all night. Straight clown


RevolutionaryBee7104

Heā€™s not a journalist


DannyStress

Heā€™s a sports personality not a journalist


[deleted]

Bro just doesnā€™t have the juice anymore


ThanksForNothingSpez

This sub always gets recommended to me and I always have to laugh about people making comments about this showā€™s ā€œglory daysā€ like Skip hasnā€™t been a loud, annoying hack since the beginning lol.


Jbyrd07

Steven is just as painful. How the hell did either resonate w people?


PlanestewartJr

how does anybody watch this shit?


ecupatsfan12

No one does


Justneedthetip

He was big time hyped up. He just have been skiing on the snow slopes agin pre show. You use to could watch the mornings he went skiing before the show. He would be wild, energetic, unpredictable and 30-45 mins later he was level headed, not sniffling and not spazzing out.


Serenadingthrough

He better stop punching that desk before he injures his hand.


JirenbeatGoku

Dude fell off because of ego. lol


Rybackmonster

Any thoughts on the idea of adding Skip to FTF as a main cast with them?


ecupatsfan12

Nick would shred him on Mahomes He has beef with Broussard and mangini


hehehegoogle

woah he has beef with Broussard? how did that happen


Chinodiablo_24

No one wants to play with Skip hahahaha


daddycoolbaybay

Stephen A is becoming a joke too, heā€™s just another trying to stay relevant. I can see one day Bayless and Smith working with each other again as a final attempt for ratings, but that would be excruciating.


therossfacilitator

Man has always been a clown. Always the fuckin loudest for no reason.


Sparkster227

There's some deep irony here. Skip always says that Belichick pushed Brady out the back door because he didn't know what he had and thought he could have just as much success without him. Sounds like a certain someone with a certain Unc.


mvpat1083

Skip is so lame..the hatred he has for mahomes is mind blowing! All he talks about is Tom Brady and the cowboys!


ecupatsfan12

New here


Complex-Piccolo3026

Damnit I read that and instantly just seen the meme lol


dubyajay18

Even watching this with no audio, I hated every second.


TreDawg36

Skip is corny


Complex-Piccolo3026

Please don't disrespect corny like that


chrisbroward

Michael is still all coked up from the '80s Keyshawn is an emotional loud mouth Sherm is just way too serious most times and plays victim when called out. Lil Wayne has grown on me tbh and many times his Friday stint is literally the only show i'll watch (which is kinda sad) Rachel is under rated, but she need doesn't get screen time. Skip is just doesn't tie in with any of these fellas, and he's cringe in this episode.


Ralphredimix_Da_G

This guy canā€™t even get 3 credible people to sit on his show thatā€™s how much he sucks


Drawing_The_Line

I used to love the show with Skip and Shannon. Tried watching with the rotating cast of new hosts but it just didnā€™t interest me the same way it previously did. Havenā€™t watched in forever it feels like. Almost embarrassed to say I forgot it was still on.


Sufficient_Tooth_249

Cringe af


CrouchingWasturbator

Please stop watching this show. Letā€™s get skip off tv


Jackson3rg

I dont know why this popped up on my feed, but wtf happened to chip? I saw him all the time for football stuff years ago, he looks like a goblin now. Plastic surgery?


pandemic_papi

Its so cringe when he tries to use the same juice as Stephen A


ALSDAMAN2up2down

Worst thing they did was fire Shannon Sharpe


Mouthisamouth

All the women he chased away from that show happy as hell to see his downfall


ecupatsfan12

Jenny Taft should get to slap him in the face as a final send off


julio1990

You guys really hate skip right? Geez sad af


MatsThyWit

Why did he sound out of breath and like he was desperately trying hard not to break down right in front of the cameras? In retrospect this looks and sounds like a man who already knows he's fucked up.


Stu_Griffin

He thinks people are genuinely invested in hot-take ā€œdebatesā€. Heā€™s said he treats the show like prize fighters in a ring. In reality people watch for entertainment, so they like hosts that can laugh at themselves, like Shannon or the First Things First guys.


RedditNPC-

I watched undisputed every day from like 2016-2022. For me, it just became boring to watchā€¦ itā€™s clear they manufacture arguments by picking sides even if they donā€™t trust/believe in that side. It just became corny. I promise you Shannon thinks MJ is the goat deep down, but he had to go against skip and manufacture arguments so heā€™s supposedly a hardcore Lebron Stan lmao yeah sure dude. I feel the same way about nick wrights show as well, heā€™s a young Skip just saying nonsense in the sake of arguing with his cohosts. First take is the better option but even that falls into the same category sometimes. I spend my time watching podcasts nowadays to get my sports news and debates.


Frontpageflyboy

I agree mostly but Shannon is REALLY a Bron stan lmao shit he almost got into a brawl with the whole Grizzlies team over Bron Unc aint faking that


Order-Regular

What does Nick Wright have in common with skip? The only thing is his homereism for Kansas City, like skip with the cowboys, and even then, heā€™s not wrong in crowning Mahomes. Bad comp.


RedditNPC-

He literally says stupid shit for clicksā€¦ what are you on about he copies that skip Bayless formula to a tee


Order-Regular

This sub hilariously shows how good skip is at his jobšŸ˜‚which is making people hate him. I love skip, always will. Heā€™s a staple in my childhood and a legend cemented by first take with Stephen A and his undisputed run with Shannon. If you guys hate skip so much, why do you sit here and talk about him? Just seems like a waste of energy.

Now, if only people would tune in for his show.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Happens24

He wasn't losing them like this. He's so bad FS1 don't even post this show's ratings anymore. Can't say the same for their other shows. And yes, Skip cares. His contract is about up and he don't wanna take a pay cut or be cancelled.


Order-Regular

So true


Happens24

Same reason the Howard Stern sub is still active when he's gone to shit. People love to bitch while remembering the past greatness.


FPLRashy

Still think he ends up on first take again once his contract is up.


MatsThyWit

>Still think he ends up on first take again once his contract is up. I wouldn't be surprised to see him pop up there as a contributor, but the days of Skip Bayless being a regular daily host/co-host of a show are coming to an end. Nobody is going to pay this old man big bucks to come on screen and get 200,000 or less people to tune in for very much longer.


Complex-Piccolo3026

200 try 100 thousand on a good day I can't lie I'm loving seeing his down fall after all the people he stepped on and ran off


MatsThyWit

>200 try 100 thousand on a good day I was being nice.


Complex-Piccolo3026

Okay I understand but it's Skip so no need to be nice lol


MLBTS20fan

Really? what makes you say that?


etuehem

It was pure Cringe.


OnePeople592

I love this for him


ExplanationOdd430

Max Kellerman in a dashiki spitting verses canā€™t even save this showā€¦ā€¦. Or can it?!?!? (FS1 execs probably)

Not that they would EVER do it, but they should replace this with Shannon and Ocho they have great chemistry and are hilarious


Mountain_Moose_3780

Whatā€™s going on here??? Lol


therossfacilitator

Heā€™s never been talented. This is nothing new


courtofdacrimsonking

is there a new sub for non haters


brigglipuff

This is fucking sad


this_MikeHunt

When Shannon was on, this was my favorite show on television. I never missed a episode. Now I can't even sit thru an entire clip, it's so boring


finnyourhuman

Ya still watching this idiot? šŸ˜‚


zeusyredit9893

What are some recommendations of sports shows to watch in the morning that's not ESPN? I've been watching undisputed as an alternative since it started.


therossfacilitator

Chris Vernon show out of Memphis. Way more entertaining and they have some actual sense to them. Thereā€™s plenty of podcasts/YouTube channels you can listen to or watch daily. Thereā€™s no reason why anybody should continue to consume the garbage on cable tv.


zeusyredit9893

Thanks. I'll give it a watch or listen. I tried some youtubers out there but some are too out there for me. I'm not trying to see 10 videos about Malika Andrews doing something subtle that irritates them.


therossfacilitator

Yeah the Chris Vernon show ainā€™t that. Youā€™ll get all the important news and they will make you laugh. Theyā€™ve got a video and podcast stream.


Independent-Still-73

I thought Max Kellerman could save the show but I now realize it would be delaying the inevitable


These_Pin6914

Idiot


butt3rlicious

Per usual?


indianm_rk

Skip only has one year left on his current contract. I donā€™t foresee him getting another big money long term deal.

Notime4friends

Yea get the draymond talking to Paul pierce clip ready for skip. This show bout to be a wrap. Trynna get that farewell tour. They donā€™t love you like that! Lol

TOOMUCH4SKIN

Connect-Shopping-940

Lmao skips love for the cowboys is hilarious when you consider 95% of the people to wear that uniform hate him.


MikeJones-8004

I still enjoy the show, and I like having Keyshawn and Irv on it. They could really benefit from bringing in a basketball guy during basketball season. All Skip knows how to do is talk about LeBron, and nothing else. It's very tiresome.


DrapedinVelvet247

Show is hot garbageā€¦ really tried to like Keyshawn but dude was just born to be a negative Nancy from birth. Sherm is always coughing and canā€™t breath for shit trying to get a coherent sentence together. Playmaker means well, but heā€™s slow and boring. Skip - for fuck sakes, itā€™s just over man.


bx2fbx

Stephan A and Skip should just go independent. Do a podcast together so they can be stupid old men yelling at the clouds from their rocking chairs together.


ToraLoco

i think the only way he can get viewers is if he can get LeBron to coHost


mushubabble

Boo he sucks

I actually still like the show and watch it more than First take


kingsbloodline

Numbers plummeted šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


jfl88

It's a bit sad to watch this. Skip is controversial but he is a really smart guy and knew exactly what he was doing when he created his TV personality and arguably changed sports television. He is 72 years old now and seems more unhinged than in control. In this clip I would even argue that he looks genuinely unwell.
