Skip Bayless is a well-known sports analyst, which is why he is one of the toughest critics in the sports industry, not only for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA</a>, but also for the NHL and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl">NFL</a>, he is known for dropping controversial tweets and opinions during the season.



However, some players have spoken out against Bayless, saying that his disrespectful words are usually empty and that most players don’t care about his opinions. Sometimes he has had to apologize for his opinions.



Among the top sports shows in the United States is Undisputed (FS1), hosted by Skip Bayless and co-hosted by Jen Hale and previously by Shannon Sharpe.



<h2>What was the NBA All-Star that spoke about Skip Bayless?</h2>



Charles Barkley, an 11-time NBA All-Star, recently spoke out against Skip Bayless, explaining why people dislike him and pointing out how he has been disrespectful to sports players and other cohosts.

Since Bayless was left hosting Undisputed by himself, the criticism against him has been harsher. Some people have pointed out that Shannon Sharpe left the show because he could no longer stand Skip and his personality.

His hot takes are often nothing more than a desperate cry for attention. And the worst part is that they always work.
Bayless has shown his lack of taste over and over throughout his career. Often saved by his co-stars’ charisma or actual sports knowledge, he’s made millions by being the guy everybody loves to hate. We get that.
However, one would expect everybody to have a limit at some point, yet Bayless doesn’t usually know where to draw the line. That was once again at a full display last night with an insensitive tweet about the Bengals at Bills gameright when <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Damar-Hamlins-profile-Age-height-contract-career-stats-and-social-media-20230102-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Damar Hamlin</a> was fighting for his life.
<h2>Athletes Rally Against Skip Bayless Over Tasteless Tweet.</h2>
“No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game,” Bayless tweeted. “But how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome…which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”
Once again, Bayless failed to read the room and made the most tasteless comment at the most unfortunate time. This time, however, he didn’t get away with it, with multiple athletes coming together to put him on blast:
“This wild… it just shows they don’t even look at us like humans smh,” replied Panthers’ Jaycee Horn. “Use to be a fan of this guy. But daily I’ve been losing respect for him. This tweet right here is the icing on the cake. Skip you’re a f**king clown,” added former NBA player Matt Barnes.
“The shrimp dead-ass serious too. You’re a sad soul bro,” tweeted Le’Veon Bell. “I hope they fire you bro!!! For you to even THINK of the game is very sad,” replied former NBA player Isaiah Thomas.
“You’re DESPICABLE!!! I hope to God you LOSE YOUR JOB for this tweet!!! You REALLY think this game holds more weight than this young man’s LIFE!!! Dude you’re dead wrong for this!!!” sentenced Terrell Owens.
“You’re a sick individual. Real talk,” added Kendrick Perkins. “All you care about is football when Damar’s life is at risk. Coming from you I expected more. This tweet is not. You people should know better bro,” tweeted Darrelle Revis.
Rookie CB Sauce Gardner added “Are you seriously talking about when the football game should be postponed? Damar Hamlin’s health is ALL that matters at the moment!!! Nothing else!!!”

This doesn’t come as a surprise at all. But even a guy like him should know better. Moreover, it’s finally time someone holds him accountable for this kind of stuff. He just went too far this time.

For years, bonafide hater <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/skip-bayless-russell-westbrook-wife-go-back-and-forth-on-social-media-20220307-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Skip Bayless</a> has had plenty of things to say about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lakers-news-darvin-ham-believes-russell-westbrook-will-prove-doubters-wrong-20220707-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Russell Westbrook</a><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/lakers-news-darvin-ham-believes-russell-westbrook-will-prove-doubters-wrong-20220707-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">,</a> none of them good, of course. Just like it happens with LeBron James or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/curry-set-another-threes-record-during-the-2022-nba-finals-20220622-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Stephen Curry</a>, nothing will ever be good enough to make Skip swallow his pride.
Westbrook was an easy target last season, though. His play for the Los Angeles Lakers was subpar at best, so Skip had a field day night in and night out nitpicking on one of his favorite players to criticize.
Needless to say, Westbrook doesn’t care for Bayless or his comments. So, he called him out on Twitter after the controversial pundit once again called him <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-analyst-calls-russell-westbrook-a-fcking-hypocrite-20220310-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">‘Westbrick</a><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-analyst-calls-russell-westbrook-a-fcking-hypocrite-20220310-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">‘</a>, a nickname he coined years ago.
<h2>NBA News: Skip Bayless Goes On Full Rant, Calls Out Russell Westbrook Again</h2>
Truth to form, Skip just wasn’t going to let it go. Westbrook fell right into his trap, he made the most to turn him into yet another publicity stunt, calling him out on his podcast and stating that he doesn’t get to play the victim this time:
“I’m sorry, but enough is finally enough,”Bayless said. “This time, I’m not just gonna sit back and shrug and roll my eyes and confine my reaction to another private vent with my wife, Ernestine. Not this time. Enough.”
“This time, I’m not gonna let Russell Westbrook turn Russ back into a victim and me back into a villain,” Bayless added. “I don’t care who’s on my side as long as I am speaking the truth. And in this case, I was so convinced I was speaking the truth that I can’t see how anyone couldn’t be on my side about what I tweeted at Russell Westbrook.”

Most people who’ve been around the league for quite some time know better than to give Skip Bayless an ounce of attention. But Westbrook has had enough, and honestly, it’s hard to blame him.
We already know that everything that comes out of Skip Bayless’ mouth or hands should be taken with a full spoon of salt. But then again, Westbrook does need to perform accordingly to the expectations.
