Skip Bayless is leaving ESPN

On Tuesday afternoon ESPN released a statement saying Skip Bayless, one half of the show First Take, will leave the company when his contract expires in August.

Bayless’ final appearance on ESPN will take place the day after the NBA Finals conclude.

Supposedly moving to Fox.

Right on the heels of Tirico announcing he gone.

ESPN cutting payroll. Probably hiring more cute chicks.

I hope.

ESPN has been unwatchable for years now. I like Bucci and SVP on late night Sportscenter, and I'll watch Around the Horn/PTI, but the other shows are hard to watch.

Speaking of Around the Horn, have you seen Woody Paige at a bar in Denver yet OTPT?

That station has gone to shit. By no means did I like Bayless at all. Hell, I don't watch any of their shitty programming, but he was a big name.

He's a mean drunk, too. Get a couple of Bartles & James in him and he's ready to fight everyone.

Cutting edge comedy. You could write for Fallon or Myers.

I could certainly write lines for Mike Myers from the Halloween movies.

In the Halloween series, it's not as fun to write lines as it is to cut them.

Watch ESPN every morning to catch up on late games before work.  Newcomer Sarina Morales is flat-out awful, plus not that attractive.  No idea how she got the job.  Still watch every morning so see what outfit they put her in.  Think ESPN has settled on the big poofy dress or skirt look and no more close-up shots.

So good to hear that Fox is cutting positions everywhere but shelling out all this money for hack talent like Bayless. Is there a bigger blowhard on air personality?
