Skip "My Dak comments were misconstrued". Shannon "Dak is tough"

Am I bad for finding this whole thing slightly funny?

On Friday morning, Bayless was back on the show, where he said his comments were "misconstrued."

“I want to reiterate some points I made about Dak Prescott and the depression he discussed,” he explained. “As I strongly stated, I have great compassion for anyone suffering from clinical depression, which is very real. If you are suffering from any form of depression, please seek help.”

He continued, "The only Dak depression I discussed on the show was from an interview he taped with Graham Bensinger. Dak said that depression hit soon after the pandemic hit, right after the quarantine. I said [Thursday] that if Dak needed help for pandemic depression, he should have sought it then."

You can tell he didn’t even authentically mean it. He’s just doing damage control to make it look like he truly cares but he doesn’t. FOX told him to issue an apology and that’s all. Had FOX Sports not told him that, he wouldn’t have said any type of apology.

Who names their kid Skip? lol.

Spot on. He didn’t even apologize really. He just made excuses for his comments.

Long time my friend. You are totally right. This clown shouldnt be allowed near a microphone after a comment like that. You want to see fox fire him? All current and past cowboys players should boycott his show. Watch how quickly Fox reacts then.

Its fun watching him pretend to be animated and passionate.

It kind of reminded me of Dwights Speech from The Office

We should ban Skip videos from this forum. Seriously.

We'd all be better off not having to deal with his drivel.

This is really pathetic on SB part. Love Dak or Dislike him has zero bearing on how one should view this. This whole take is just wrong. People who address short comings or problems should be commended. Not sure how anyone could have this opinion but he is entitled to it.

Who watches this garbage anyways lol

 

[cowboyec]

When he starts out saying he disqualifies himself on the subject..

he should have just shut up right there.

Shannon made the only qualified comments in the discussion.

Skip never knows when to stop. And these hollow bets of Mountain Dew? Come on man.

I understand where Skip is coming from but you can't put the way you would do it on to others. Times have change. This is the last thing that you want to do is bottle it up or keep internal. You need to to talk about it so it does not eat at you and then it is too much to take and you take your own life. Also depression can be triggered at any time so Dak trigger could be at the beginning of the pandemic. A lot of us were home and we as human beings need that interaction with others. If this was going for more than 2 years than Dak might have Dysthymia. Skip did not really come out and apologize for his comments but he need to understand that people handle things differently.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

He got too wrapped up in the character he plays on the show.

People watch it BECAUSE its garbage.

No.

He did not apologize.

Must be tiring to keep having to have fake outrage and make headlines to keep ratings up and beat your competitors. I don't even know who can watch this stuff on a daily basis. I prefer just unbiased reporting rather than HOT TAKES

 

[Dreski]

Nope. Not buying it.

After reviewing the tape, the ruling on the field is confirmed. Bayless loses his challenge, and will be charged a timeout.
