My opinion is: the whole subject should not have been brought up on Undisputed at all.
Dak has a right to tell his story if he chooses as it is relevant to the compounding personal family tragedies he's endured, and amplified by the CoVid quarantine isolation aspects many have experienced.
He even acknowledges this as compared to other Americans' struggles despite his good personal fortune. It did not prevent him from having darker thoughts.
Skip just shows his *** here. In his world view, winning is everything if you wear a Silver helmet with a Navy Blue Star on it. Check all the baggage at the door, and deal with it.
The difference being the latter is unrealistic. Dak isn't the POTUS or 5 Star General in front of a strategic battle campaign map.
He's 27 (?) years old and has lost his brother who he was very close to. Just leave it alone please.
The sports media in this country at almost all levels is so click driven they think nothing of outrageous takes or writing endless opinion pieces so long as they are guaranteed reading.
There is zero journalistic standard, and it's poisoned everyone from simply enjoying pro-athletes skills and their contests without all semi-relevant back story and tangentially related social issues presented beforehand.
Because while they may have some thread of interest, the only value is to THEM, in this case Skip Bayless , Shannon Sharpe and Fox Sports.
