FOX Sports Releases Statement After Skip Bayless’ Controversial Dak Prescott Comments

why have these dumbass talking heads if they can't say what they're thinking

frick bayless

I don’t like Skip, but this is ridiculous people are upset about the comments.

it's the culture we live in today. i'm not a fan of Bayless but free speech is no longer acceptable. the left has bastardized another right we once had. if you are a Democrat/liberal/commie making a controversial statement the media will spin it as though it was the new norm.

Skip Bayless sucks, but not necessarily for these comments. He was respectful while saying he disagreed with something, no need for a formal apologetic statement from the network. He could have said it a little differently, but so what. You can bet your arse Jerry Jones & Mike McCarthy are wondering the same thing, "If this guy is battling depression from covid to where he couldn't workout, can we really give him a $40M contract?" That's not say Cowboys or SKip don't want him to get whatever help he needs, just can he do this job for this money with this going on in his own head

Playing football increases your odds of CTE, which causes depression. What is the surprise that a football player may be suffering mental instability? They know the risk, but risk it all for the big paychecks.

The horse actually made sense over Skip's flippant emathy.

what's wrong with what he said? Depression, if severe enough, can be debilitating. It's a fair concern, when he's seeking 10s of millions of dollars every year to do a job. And yes, I have some personal experience with this - not me, but immediate family members.

Well you certainly cannot give an opinion on a show based on giving your opinion.

Dak introduced it in into the public. It is not different than having you best employee dealing and wondering if they can handle the stress.

He is paid to be a contrarian. Rarely is he right, and he only believes what he says occasionally.
