Does Skip Bayless really have Sources?

[Bboystyle]

I mean we really saying the #1 troll in sports who has a national platform doesnt have sources because no one likes him?




Coli be running on a handful of brain cells at times

 

[Juggalo Fred]

His brother Rick is a world famous chef

So at the very least, we know he has access to a lot of sauces

If he's so world famous how come I've never heard of him? I live in the world

 

[Paper Boi]

in the same way that Bill Simmons has sources.

he is famous in the sports world and knows a lot of people by osmosis (and as someone pointed out decades of being in the game)

he doesn't have as many sources as a regular journalist, especially not a newsbreaking journalist, but to think he doesn't hear about things before me and you before they happen sometimes is a dumb thing to assume.

 

[Killer Instinct]

Skip -- who has been covering sports longer than a lot of this boards members have been alive -- doesn't have any sources in said industry because you & others in sports just, "don't like him." The delusional, naive arrogance of some of you is

 

[Red Money]

sources don’t necessarily have to be a direct line to athletes…I keep seeing ppl referencing players/athletes “hating” him as proof he doesn’t have sources when he could easily be in communication with the “little people” (couldn’t quickly think of a better phrase) who work with/around them

So little people gon risk they job to tell skip info!?, Lol. The big guys/front office and athletes leaking info is for leverage....small guys risk losing they small check/career.

So skip is paying money to the little guys that are risking they jobs, right???? We saw warriors looking to hunt down the person that leaked the Draymond footage to TMZ....

Smarten up @mastermind

 

[David_TheMan]

Yeah skip has sources just by having a agent who does aports, by being in with fox sports execs, and having a national media platform that athletes amd athlete reps use to push their side.

 

[The ADD]

Of course. Beat writers a have sources.

Why wouldn’t Skilp?

 

[MJ Truth]

I’m not saying this isn’t true, but people do not like skip Bayless.

When is the last time he has broken a story?

Why the hell would be be breaking stories at this point?

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

The idea that some of you are speaking on what the man has or doesn’t is nuts

Exactly. Skip isn't out there connecting with insiders anymore.

sources don’t necessarily have to be a direct line to athletes…I keep seeing ppl referencing players/athletes “hating” him as proof he doesn’t have sources when he could easily be in communication with the “little people” (couldn’t quickly think of a better phrase) who work with/around them

Of course, but no one has been able to provide times when has relied on those insiders in the last decade.

The closest really the Kawhi injury fiasco in San Antonio.


Skip used to be a big time journalist but he is just a TV personality now who shares his opinion.

Why the hell would be be breaking stories at this point?

Why wouldn't he?

Rick don’t even fukk with him like that

 

[aceboon]

Skip was quoting twitter troll accounts on national TV, he has no sources

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

People at fox can feed it to execs to feed to skip if needed
