Twitter: Skip Bayless leaving FS1

"I believe success is achieved by acquiring and developing talented, respected and credible individuals, none which applies to Skip Bayless," Aikman said.

So I'm going to go with HELL NO!

Gotta love Aikman!!

The undisputed biggest Cowboys fan.

I hope he's off tv for good with his coke head hot takes.

I always appreciated Skip for what he was: part showman, die hard sports critic. He overplayed his hand with Shannon Sharpe and he paid the price.

Network sports shows will all die. People are jumping to their own podcasts which is smart. Skip has one and will be there I'm sure and strange thing is a ton of people will watch. No idea why.

You could be right .........remember Parsons initially signed to join Skip his rookie year but backed out. Now he has his own podcast.....

Hate to see such a loyal Cowboys fan go. This guy is.......really full of crap. Good riddance.

Always been a hack. He and Stephen A are the reasons I have never watched a show on ESPN or FS1 in over 10 years.

SAS is just as bad if not worse. Total joke.

+1 +1

Skip Bayless is really the pioneer of the sports talk show host strategy of deliberately saying stupid things so people will talk about how stupid you are.... because with everyone talking about how stupid you are, they then tune in to hear the next stupid thing you say.

Bayless proved sportstalk is an industry where it is far, far better to have people talk about how stupid you are than not talk about you at all.

They ain’t tuning in anymore.

Relevant to the Cowboys as he’s probably responsible for 50% of the Cowboys tv airtime/discussions. I imagine Jerry is unsettled by this news.

The show probably isn't doing that good and was given a choice to quit or be cancelled..............

I think they've him save face by quitting but the numbers were super low for his shows. Under 30000 viewers low.
