Skip Bayless
 
“You also have the black/white dynamic and the majority of Redskins fans are white and it’s just human nature if you’re white to root for the white guy."

Fail

notorious 08-20-2012 01:31 PM

:facepalm:

I think that fans root for the player that wins games.

Rasputin 08-20-2012 01:36 PM

:hmmm: Honestly I've never met a white Redskins fan. For that matter, I've never met a black Redskins fan, a hispanic Redskins fan, nor a Russian Redskins fan, havn't met a Canadian Redkins fan either eh. In fact I don't recall ever meeting a true Redskins fan in person.

jspchief 08-20-2012 01:37 PM

What world does Bayless live in?

TEX 08-20-2012 01:37 PM

Big deal. People say stupid shit all the time.

lcarus 08-20-2012 01:39 PM

What a tool.

Funny thing is I'm sure the KKK completely agrees with you Skip.

Sofa King 08-20-2012 01:42 PM

Skip Bayless says the dumbest shit all the time. The problem is that some people enjoy listening to him. I have yet to meet those people, but they HAVE to exist or that bitch would be gone by now.

sedated 08-20-2012 01:48 PM

Hmmm…a guy hired to piss people off in an effort to get ratings said something controversial and stupid? What has the world come to?!?!

Brock 08-20-2012 01:50 PM

shrug.

CoMoChief 08-20-2012 02:07 PM

Hopefully something like this gets his silly ass fired.

Don't see how this is any different than Rush Limbaugh's comments on McNabb

blaise 08-20-2012 02:11 PM

So, you're taking Skip Bayless's bait with this thread.

It's not, but it won't get him fired.

Brock 08-20-2012 02:17 PM

I doubt this is anywhere close to the dumbest thing Bayless has said.

This. He's a high-profile troll and nothing more.

Saul Good 08-20-2012 02:48 PM

What is the context here? Is he simply saying that white people tend to identify more with white athletes?

RealSNR 08-20-2012 02:51 PM

Do the Redskins even have any white players on their roster?

Seriously. Of their players that I recognize, I can't name any white guys. Graham Gano is the only one.

Is he talking about Kirk Cousins/RGIII? That shit should be in the toilet by now.

Ryan Kerrigan.... And thats all I got.

Mr. Flopnuts 08-20-2012 03:06 PM

This shit got Rush Limbaugh fired when it was about Donovan McNabb.

Where is skip pulling this crap from? How the hell does he know this? As others have suggested, skip is just being controversial to get the ratings up.

look, we are being reeled in too.

Now if it's LEGITIMATE rooting, the body will shut it down.

Gonzo 08-20-2012 05:15 PM

Skip Bayless makes J. Whitlock look like Walter Cronkite.

MahiMike 08-20-2012 06:13 PM

Yes and all blacks voted for Obama 'cause of his stance on ending the wars...

scho63 08-20-2012 07:22 PM

What a complete jackass-he must have learned his race baiting BS from Joe Biden or Obama.

I live in the heart of Redskin country and all the WHITE fans love RG III and there are a boatload of Black and Asian Redskin fans. This area also has a HUGE Hispanic population but in reality, they are soccer fanatics. You can't get into a bar or club when big matches are on or will you find them all hanging around muster zones.

He wins the douchebag of the week award!

aturnis 08-20-2012 10:35 PM

Most Redskins fans are white? Isn't Washington DC predominantly black? This doesn't even make sense. Is he really trying to CREATE a QB controversy.

NJChiefsFan 08-21-2012 02:35 AM

He loves trolling. It's a shame cause when he first started and wanted to have a real take he could break things down and make a new, well thought out take.

Virginia (where I was born) has a lot of Redskins fans. Skip Bayless must have run out of Tebow hype and he's reaching for anything that will get him some attention.

So he's like a backwards GoChiefs.

I see what you did there. ROFL

TLO 08-21-2012 05:59 AM

I don't give a flying **** what color a player is as long as he is helping my team win games.

WhiteWhale 08-21-2012 06:46 AM

I'm not sure of the context and Skip is an idiot but....

1. White fans do favor white players in general. I don't know how anyone could think of another reason the Boomer Grigsbys, Andy Studebakers, and Mike Mazlowskis (maz sucked) are/were so over-valued by fans.

2. Most Redskin fans ARE white. Just like most NFL fans are white. It's called an ethnic majority. White people have one in this country.

People are WAY to oversensitive about race. I mean people start calling everyone racist just for bringing up racial issues.

Having said that Skip is a moron and was probably just saying it to *shock* get attention.

Predarat 08-21-2012 06:48 AM

1. I would agree with this for the most part. Ive often mentioned on here that if Jared Allen were black, alot of Chiefs fans would not have supported him the way they did.


Yea, i have no idea about the Bayless comment....theres no link and ive not seen it talked about anywhere else? Dude has always seemed like a first class D-bag to me though. Its his job to incite the masses.

Saul Good 08-21-2012 08:33 AM

How is his comment anything more than common knowledge? Look at the Asian media circus that follows players like Ichiro around.

Look at how Mark Sanchez was covered by Mexican media.

Look at all the hype that guys like Jason Sehorn and Mike Alstott got for being the only white guys at their positions.

Bayless may be wrong in this instance because white guys aren't underdogs at the QB position, though. People tend to pull for guys of their own race when their race is an extreme minority in said activity.
