![]() Occasionally, the duo would also have conversations about serious topics where sports, race, and politics intersect. I can understand how other people may find this annoying, but believe me when I tell you that if I hear “ the stars at night are big and bright” in the middle of a funeral, there’s a 33 percent chance I’m going to start clapping and finish that lyric. As a Cowboys fan (another character flaw), I appreciated that he and Skip always found a way to talk about America’s team, no matter what. He always came across as authentic and it was a sight to behold (see: Shannon wielding a Black & Mild cigar on national TV). It feels like a Juneteenth shirt with slogans on it from Target, or like performing blackness while sticking your tongue out at white folks, going “na-na na-na boo-boo!” Still, Sharpe was truly his cognac-sipping, obscure country aphorism-spitting, goat mask-wearing self. Saying someone is “unapologetically Black” feels trite these days. It’s a major character flaw, I know, but I enjoyed a handful of aspects regarding Skip and Shannon: Undisputed, such as Sharpe’s personality. ![]() I was an avid watcher of YouTube clips of their FS1 daily show. And it’s likely because of the disrespect Bayless sent Sharpe’s way over a conversation about Tom Brady. Please keep low quality, low effort posts out of here! Repetitive posts, like fan art that looks similar to other works, questions that have been asked several times over, and more, will be removed.After just under seven years, Shannon Sharpe’s time sitting across from Skip Bayless and making bets over Diet Mountain Dew has come to an end. Also, bigotry of any kind will result in a permanent ban. We all have different opinions on Dew, so agree to disagree! Don't downvote someone because they like something you don't.
