Skip Bayless vs Dez Bryant

[SDCowboy]

Fame? Fame is a dime a dozen. Youtube has proven that.

Lasting fame is not. The guy has his own TV show.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

I don't know why Skip says these things because he actually loves and defends the Cowboys when on the show with Stephen A. I watch them debate on Youtube all the time and even though Stepen A is a hater, he makes more sense than Skippy.......

A fellow journalist once described Bayless succinctly: "He cares nothing about facts."

And Stephen A. is just a chum bucket mouth: everything that comes out stinks.

Your sources sound right.

Lasting fame? What does that mean? Again, people on Youtube can have their own show. Just as on tv. My point is ANYONE can be famous. As for TV, lol. Gee...with over what, 200 channels on cable (not including pay per view), that's not much of a barometer. Talent and being on tv isn't part of a requisite.

Adda few more* in there and ill agree. He came off as a massive destroyer.

Destroyed bayless. Someone needed to do it in the realm of football, because Mark Cuban already had in the world of basketball.

The only thing Sherman destroyed was his right to be respected by the American public.

What a freaking clown that guy is. I am absolutely shocked by people who think that what he did was cool. "I'm beating you in life" or whatever he said, is about the dumbest thing I can think of for a 24 year old to say to anybody, I don't care who they are. Skip is a shock jock, but he's not an idiot. Sherman is an absolute moron.

IF he had to respond to him then Dez handled it well. BUT, why bother? Ignore him, don't feed the troll!!!

Snooki had her own show, too. Would you say she's one of the more accomplished people you've ever known?

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Exactly, Sherman coming on with an agenda to say "My d*ck's bigger than yours" made him look like a tool. Bayless kept calm, tried to get him to talk facts and he just continued his "I'm better than you" rant. He came across as the the typical insecure person who has to boast about his accomplishments rather than letting them speak for themselves.

As far as careers, Bayless has come from nowhere to be one of the most recognizable people in his profession. He has the highest rated show on ESPN outside of live sporting events and like him or hate him, probably has maximized his ability more than anyone he has ever interviewed.

Revisit this argument about 10 years from now and Sherman has retired. I am guessing he'll still be a punk and Bayless will still be making lots of money talking about punks like him.

You used the words "Bayless" and "facts" in the same sentence. Congratulations on being the first person ever able to do that.

lol wait, wouldnt 2000 yards really help the team?

And you're the first...and only, person who thinks Livings was our best OL a year ago. :laugh2:

Well alot of people are not well enough informed if they think anyone along that line was more consistent over the course of the entire season.

The only guy who even came close was Smith, who was 20 years old and playing at a new position for the first time.

 

[KDM256]

Don't see nothing wrong with the comments Dez made about 2000 yards and 20tds.. It doesn't come off as a "Me" towards me.


Nothing wrong with setting a goal and working towards it. I hope Dez gets 2000yds and help us win more games next year while doing it...

Bryant got wind of Bayless’ comment and responded Wednesday with the following tweets: “My bad skip I forgot you and your buddy get paid to twist up stories whenever you already know the truth.”

“Correction…i was asked a question.. i didn’t predict anything…basically all i said was it was possible.”

:bravo: :bravo: :bravo:

As a member of the media, I have to applaud Dez's comments. Media personalities such as Bayless who are more interested in notoriety than factual reporting make us all look bad.

Which is sad because there are plenty of media people who actually do their homework.
