i don't think he's bad on the show, but if it involves lebronze or any type of politics, he's unbearable

comes across as a smug prick though. rarely watch boxing but i saw the chocolatito fight when he lost his belt and max was asking the guy who won what it felt like since he used to eat out of trash cans lmfao

Leroid definitely brings the worst out in him.

Lol. He tends to do that. Harold is still the GOAT of you wanting to KO someone (or buy them a beer)

Yeah for Curry its not just one thing, its a combination of things. They also think hes a gimmick and that current players just havent solved him yet.

Interesting tidbit, Larry Riley supposedly discovered Steph his freshman year at davidson and would have drafted him at #2 (He says he would have drafted him first overall but hes full of shit. They would have grabbed Blake). Just makes Ainges awful talent evaluation look even worse.

guess who would have taken him #1

I hadn't heard that but lol.
 
I think people are starting to realize how valuable Skip was to First Take now that you have some cuck like Max Kellercan trying to fill his role

I was reading the First Take wiki earlier trying to find the name of a guy I was talking to RR about, and this line from Skip had me loling hard in the middle of the gym:

Most notably, during a discussion regarding Washington Redskins Quarterback Robert Griffin III, frequent guest Rob Parker asked whether Griffin III was a "brother" or a "cornball brother." When pressed by host Cari Champion as to what that meant, Parker mentioned that Griffin III had a white fiance and mentioned claims that Griffin III was a Republican.[9] In response, Bayless asked whether Griffin III's braids did anything to assuage Parker's concerns.[10]

i remember that, it costed parker guest spots on cold pizza (first take) and he was fired from his paper Detroit free press or someshit. And skip cant be very valuable, undisputed rating suck, best thing he ever did was calling troy aikman gay
 
Can tell the regular season has turned everyone's brain to mush, Skip Bayless is a fucking can.

Playoffs, please.
 
Absolute horseshit. Fuck the CHeat though.

Nets to sit 6 against Bulls, who can make playoffs with victory

Brooklyn's decision should come as good news for Chicago, as the Bulls enter the regular season's final night in a three-way fight with Indiana and Miami for the East's final two spots.

The path to the playoffs is simple for the Bulls -- if they win, they're in. The Pacers will also head to the postseason with a win of their own at home against the Atlanta Hawks, who locked up fifth place with a Tuesday night win. Should either the Bulls or Pacers lose, Miami can lock up a playoff spot with a Wednesday win over the Washington Wizards.

Heat made their own bed by losing to the fkn Bricks at home a few weeks ago

Losing the GOAT to a goddamn ankle injury pretty much destroyed our championship aspirations this season
 
And yeah, fuck the Nuts. Resting players on the last game of the season when Dunny the Fleecer already owns your lottery pick? Dafuq kind of weak shit is that

biggest reason a lot of the old players are so bitter is probably because their max contracts were like $80,000 and nowadays guys like mozcock get $64 million

This is definitely true, and I kinda have a hard time blaming the older players. Candler Parshits will make $45.2 mil this season and next. Charles Barkley (top 20 GOAT all-time) made <$45 million... for his entire 16 year career, including $2.4 for his '93 MVP season (Josh McFknroberts made $5.8 to play 22 games of net negative basketball this season)

Barkley also played in at least 70 games 8 different times in his career. But modern guys who make more in 1.5 seasons than Barkley did in his 16 year career somehow need the season shortened to like 60 games

No doubt. Would love to see what Spo can do in the yoffs with this squad.
 
I had their floor and ceiling set at ECF game 7. No way the friendly/rigged lets CLE lose in that scenario
