''Skip Bayless has decided to leave ESPN when his contract expires at the end of August.
His final appearance on First Take will be the day after the NBA Finals conclude.
We want to thank Skip for his many contributions to ESPN. His hard work and talent have benefited ESPN for 12 years.''
i arrived a man, i am leaving a legend
We are like of mind. ESPN programming is pretty god awful
genius floyd fans loved ESPN so much when they announced floyd as the greatest for the last 25 years LOL
As much as I also can't stand the whole Bruce Jenner thing, ESPN is a sister station of ABC, which is owned by Disney. If you're taking a stand over the Jenner sh*t, you have to boycott the others as well, right? Because Disney is the overall boss, and they are the ones responsible for that BS.
i still havent forgiven espn for this:

and i never will.
i hope ESPN burns to the ground for that.
Amen sterling...A fcuking men
I left ESPN/ESPN2 the night after the last episode of Friday Night Fights. If they change their mind, they know where I will be... Watching HBO and Showtime.
We are like of mind. ESPN programming is pretty god awful
lol He's leaving for only an extra million or two a year? Lame. Hopefully he changes his mind.
I know right? Him and Stephen A. have great chemistry. I'll definitely miss ol Skip.
On a side note... If Max gets the job, there could be more boxing talk on FT. Max is pretty much the only replacement I'd still watch the show for tbh.
EPSN is a disgusting zergling infested abomination. an empire suffering from dawood ibrahim gangrene and is slowly losing relevance and stature as the time goes on.
they pushed out the wildly talented bill simmons that elevated the ESPN brand and brought them great original content now they are losing a living legend in skip bayless.
FCK ESPN
FCK YOU.
FCK ANYBODY WHO THINKS ITS NORMAL TO BE BORN ONE GENDER THEN SUDDENLY DECIDE I WANNA TRY ANOTHER GENDER.
Honestly doesn't matter to me whether it's normal or not. What do I care what another person wants to do with their body :dunno:. Ain't my dick getting chopped off lol
Skip took a fat payday and is taking his talents to FS1. Check it out, looks like Kellerman could take his seat.

Skip was a great troll- with that stupid slight grin on his face trying to play dumb LOL. And he probably did believe some of what he was saying even though he knew full well he didn't even watch the games, or the fights. I think he's hilarious - but I wonder if that act might have only worked because he and Stephen A. could play off of each other. To me the show was less interesting and funny when either was off
Sucks.
ESPN needs to pay up.
They lost Cowherd and now Skip.
Who's gonna make ESPN interesting now?
Mike and Mike are to vanilla.
It looks like Max Kellerman has a great shot at Skip's chair lol. I linked the article a couple pages back.
Shame. I'm gonna miss the great chemistry he and SAS had with one another. I wonder who they will replace him with (hopefully not that young, unfunny black guy.)
Michael Smith? That dude has made me search for the remote more than anyone in TV history EVER.
Shame. I'm gonna miss the great chemistry he and SAS had with one another. I wonder who they will replace him with (hopefully not that young, unfunny black guy.)
I don't know why he was employed anyway, he obviously knew **** all about any sport.
FAWK! Finally something we can agree on!
Green fawking k man!
Skip racist is a tool bag good ridence
Whitlock guest hosts for Cowherd all the time.
You didn't see his wrecking of Kobe the day after his 60 point farewell game?http://i.imgur.com/hq8Q2Si.png
The hot garbage, narcissist comments? Oh yeah, I caught that lol
Did you ever hear him explaining ciara being thirsty with khristine leahy? Colin was like WTF, HUH??

I can't embed those twitter videos
I disagree with that, I think he actually knew sports, but that wasn't the point of his show. His job was to say ridiculous sh*t and he did a great job with that.
He knew dick about sports. There was a reason he was fired while working in Chicago and Dallas.
the award maybe inconsequential, but im not mad about the award, im mad at a mainstream sport's organization that is trying to normalize cross dressing and being transgendered as if there's nothing wrong with it.
THERE IS.
ITS FCKING DISGUSTING AND ESPN THE MOST POPULAR VISIBLE SPORTS ORGANIZATION SHOULD NOT BE TRYING TO MAINSTREAM CONFUSED CREATURES WHO ARE CROSS DRESSING FOR MONEY.
All you have to do is google all the articles QUESTIONING espn's decision to give that abomination a courage award.
You seem oddly upset that im upset about it.
this isnt about the award.
this is about the principal.
You're the one giving ESPN an ultimatum and writing in capital letters and ****, lol. I'm just chillin bruh.
