KowboyKoop 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I just saw on 1st and 10 that Skip Bayless picked the Detroit Tigers to win the AL Wild Card. What a f*cking idiot. They won't suck.....but they are behind New York, Toronto, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Minnesota, LA-Anaheim, and Oakland. They might be a better/surprise team....but they aren't better than most of those teams. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 69 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Yeah, it seems pretty goddam likely that NY or Boston will take the wild card. If not, next picks would be Anaheim/Oakland, Toronto, Chicago/Cleveland. Then Texas. Then Minnesota. Then maybe Detroit. Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 69 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hey Koop, KC just picked up Graffanino again. +1 for KC. Link to post Share on other sites

MDXS 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I hate Skip Bayless. He's an idiot. I'm not happy he picked the Sox to win the division. Link to post Share on other sites
KowboyKoop 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hey Koop, KC just picked up Graffanino again. +1 for KC.Yeah..he's a good addition for us as a utility guy. Can play 1b, 2b, and 3b for us...which is good. When we had him previously he was more of a starter/plattoon player...and that didn't work that great. I like him better as a utility player who can start probably 1-2 games a week and provide a decent bat. Also...he pushed Joe McEwing out the door...and that's always a good thing.

gobears 0 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I hate Skip Bayless. He's an idiot. I'm not happy he picked the Sox to win the division.One of the best days was when left the SJ Mercury News (my hometown paper) to go write for ESPN so I wouldn't have to see his mug on the sports page every morning.His MO was to write just to stir it up no matter how stupid the position - and you would never hear about it again if he was proven wrong.

76clubs 0 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I ****ing hate Skip BaylessI love when he guest hosts for Jim Rome. All the clones send in emails to him complaining about what a shitty host he is.classic Link to post Share on other sites
aadams_22 3 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 and you would never hear about it again if he was proven wrong.Sounds a lot like Colin Cowherd from ESPN Radio as well. He's another one that refuses to admit when he is wrong. Link to post Share on other sites

Hobbes 1 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Too much football for my tasteI only listen to him on the way to work (although I've been listening to the Adam Corrolla show more often lately), so I don't get a big dose of him. I know he has the daily football fix, but that's usually later than when I'm listening. I usually get his take on whatever the hot story at the time is. Link to post Share on other sites
Solodell 0 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Cowherd's problem is coming on after the greatness that is Mike & Mike. Skip Bayless is a moron. If he ever manages to say something halfway intelligent I think I'm losing my mind. Link to post Share on other sites

If he ever manages to say something halfway intelligent I think I'm losing my mind.Mike and Mike is good, but ever since I got my XM it has been tuned into Channel 175...MLB Home Plate, so my new morning show is Mark Patrick, Buck Martinez, and Orestes Destrade.

Hobbes 1 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I'm on the west coast, so Mike and Mike are usually too early for me. I've been catching the end of their show lately and it's decent, but the second guy doesn't seem too knowledgeable. Link to post Share on other sites

Suited_Up 2 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I can't remember a time Bayless has said anything with any sense, ever.and Golic isn't that knowledgeable because he's a football player. Not fully qualified to talk about all sports equally, but I still think he does a pretty decent job. They're one of the few ESPN guys I can tolerate. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,741 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I can't remember a time Bayless has said anything with any sense, ever.Well, the Tigers did win the Wild Card in 2006. Link to post Share on other sites

KowboyKoop 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Oh really?Pretty far back in time to find something I was wrong about. Oh well. Remember when I called Texas to win the national title over USC in 2005...well before that was even the announced matchup....and the whole board just went nuts about how USC couldn't be beat and blah blah blah blah.......Fun game.

I was on the UT bandwagon since the previous year's Rose Bowl, where VY single handedly crushed Michigan.Skip Bayless is an idiot, but I do find him at least entertaining. I might get fired up at the absurdity of what he says, but he's compelling TV. Mike and Mike are like taking a dose of lithium Link to post Share on other sites
