Skip Bayless has said some pretty ludicrous things in his 30-year career in the sports industry. Like when he said Tim Tebow would be the next Brett Favre. Or when he said Albert Haynesworth would be a major addition to the New England Patriots. Haynesworth got manhandled the first six games before getting cut. OR that time he lied about being a starting point guard in high school for a state championship team. He started all right–on JV.
But it’s been a few hours since Skip Baseless has made an off-the-wall claim. So it was only right that Skip blast one of the NFL’s most valuable players in Aaron Rodgers.
In the wake of a horrifying Monday Night Football game in which the Green Bay Packers were embarrassed by the Denver Broncos by a score of 29-10 and Rodgers’ offense put up a total of 77 meager yards, Skip blasted the record-setting quarterback on ESPN’s First Take.
“When are you, and all those blind Aaron Rodgers worshippers out there, most of you in Packers nation … When are you going to wake up,” Bayless spewed. “And when are you going to realize that the bad man just is not that good? Especially when it matters most.”
“He can frontrun at Lambeau Field, we know that. And most of their games are at Lambeau Field because they play about three-quarters of their games at home. But you make him play away, under the lights? And Aaron Rodgers melts.”
Go home, Skip. You’re drunk.
