Skip and Shannon: Undisputed

According to the show there are only 4 professional teams. All they talk about are the Dallas Cowboys, La Lakers, GS Warriors and New England Patriots. This used to be my favorite sports talk show now I cringe thinking about it.

Skip has so much hatred for LeBron James it's crazy. Just cancel the show if you don't let Shannon talk. It's always comes back to skip talking bad about LeBron. I bet he'd be quiet if he came on the show but why would he when all he does is hate on him. I'm glad ESPN got rid of him. His knowledge is from the Micheal Jordan days. He's not adapt to this days games. Skip just leave the show and let Shannon take over.

People across the country are sick and tired of skip Bayless wanting to talk about the Dallas Cowboys 365 days a year there has to be other sports and other topics that could be addressed somewhere along the lines The Cowboys have not won anything since 1995 and nobody's interested in hearing about them daily Is there something that could be done to prevent this from happening over and over year after year again Let's find other tablets to talk about maybe the NBA are major league baseball or women's college basketball or NCAA men's basketball and football something other than the Cowboys can we have one day without the Cowboys at least a week.

While Skip Bayless may have really bad takes and can be biased towards specific teams and players, he is misunderstood and not appreciated for he has done for the sports talk show industry. While this show often focuses mostly on Lebron James, the Dallas Cowboys, Tom Brady, and the New England Patriots I understand why because these teams and athletes generate the highest ratings due to their popularity. Shannon Sharpe is the complete opposite of Bayless when it comes to all of the topics above which leads to lively debates. Despite the main focus being on a select few teams and athletes, the best part of this show comes after the Super Bowl as the show opens up to many more topics on the NBA, the NFL offseason, and societal topics that intertwine with sports.

Sharpe is one of the best hires a network has ever made. He has great quotes from his grandparents and stories from his Hall of Fame playing days in the NFL. His energy is contagious and is always prepared for every topic. He is quite simply fantastic at what he does. This show is not for everyone, but the personalities and lively debates make up for any shortcomings making this show a great watch and listen.

Shannon is great! Always brings great energy, interesting perspectives.

Skip on the other hand is just awful. Anytime something happens in the sports world that will be on the show the following morning, I already know exactly what Skip will have to say, how he will say it, and metaphors he uses. He has about 20 different lines he uses and recycles the same tired points. Skip seems to think the viewers are interested in a debate, rather than a conversation about topics. It seems like Skip tries to make every topic an argument.

On another level, the show hasn't really developed or changed since its inception. The graphics, set design, and video elements all seem to be the exact same... and it just seems boring now.
