The professional troll debates himself in a great new video. Skip Bayless is an actor who plays a moron on TV in order to get ratings. Normally I adhere to a principle I call “Bayless’ Law” which states that “Thou shalt not give thine attention to Skip Bayless”, however I’ll make an exception for this well-produced video (from Sports Illustrated’s Extra Mustard, and Jimmy Traina) of Bayless arguing with himself about Aaron Rodgers :

Bayless can’t even agree with himself about the greatness of APC’s #1 play of  2016, calling Rodgers' throw to Jared Cook  both “the play of the century” while claiming “there is nothing special about this play.”
Bayless knows what he’s doing and as one of the fathers of “debate for the sake of debate," he’s a master at conning gullible people into reacting to his insane, incoherent hot takes. It’s nice to see him brought down to earth by the one and only person he listens to or respects.
Now, back to our regularly scheduled blocking/muting/ignorance of his general existence.

Kind of funny but I'm not sure it really paints him the light the editor intended. That is to make him sound like even he can't make up his mind about Aaron Rodgers. Has anyone seen the original , unedited versions because somehow I doubt he ever said those positive things about Rodgers. The opening where he calls him unearthly and transcendental or whatever was probably in response to someone else calling him that and he was just repeating it before he said something like "and that is just wrong" same with the "catch of the century"

I can't go back and rewatch to get the exact wording because Frontier internet sucks and it just loads for 10 minutes but I think you know what I am talking about.

Regardless Bayless is a tool or at least the character he portrays is a tool but he knows how to stir the pot and get people to watch. He's like Howard Stern, People who love him listen to hear what he says next and people who hate him listen to hear what he says next. I'll catch occasional comments like listening to them when they are posted on sites like this but I don't watch ESPN or NFL network or whatever he is on so I don't have to make that choice to watch him "live" as it were.

Didn't see all the original clips, but I did see when he called the Cook catch "an all-time great play." He basically just used it to explain why his Cowboys lost the game.

This video should be watched because it includes a clip of the pass to Cook from an angle I hadn't seen before. It really shows how Rodgers threw that pass across his body, which you couldn't really see from the TV angle. Makes that throw all the more amazing.
