Shannon Sharpe Is Leaving Fox Sports

In what has got to be the most shocking of all sports media news in recent months, Fox Sports analyst and co-host on Undisputed, Shannon Sharpe, has reportedly announced he will not be coming back to the show for another season.

This comes on the back of some heated on-screen exchanges between him and Skip Bayless and around that time it was also rumoured that Bayles was interested in reuniting with his old running buddy, Stephen A Smith.

Skip Bayless has certainly taken note of Shannon’s success away from the Fox network and has since started his own Youtube channel, along with ESPN host Stephen A Smith, starting his own channel, and it’s nice to see these guys finally join the rest of us in the new millenium.

If we’re going to read the room and make some assumptions about what is transpiring, I would guess that Shannon has known for a long time that he plans to leave, and really timed his departure for the end of the basketball season.

If yout think about it, it’s a tough spot for the producers of Undisputed to be in, because we’re about to go in to the offseason and what would already be a natural/annual dip in ratings could be made a lot worse by the departure of a beloved co-host like Shannon is.

Skip Bayess has rubbed several co-hosts wrong over the years, if you remember the time he had a very tense verbal exhancge with former host, Jenny Taft and she left the show not too long after that.

There was the Damar Hamlin debate in which, Skip Bayless came off as being something other than sympathetic, or even professional. The year 2022 was marred with a series of uncomfortable debates between the two, and while they were great for teleivision, you actually wondered if these guys actually get along off screen.

For his part, Shannon hasn’t exactly kept his nose clean given what his coverage/analysis is on-screen and then the fact that he basically sits courtside at every Laker game. It is fair to question his objectivity when you see that, so I can’t imagine that this went over well with a long time newspaper columnist like Skip Bayless, who believes the reporter should never be involved in the story, and the media/reporter’s credibility being the priority over everything else.

This truly does mark the beginning of a new era in sports television, I don’t think the show will be able to stay in that timeslot either,and if I had to guess, Nick Wright’s First Thing’s First will be the show to take the timeslot in the coming months.

I do not think Robert Kraft will fire Bill Belichick because I do not think Robert Kraft can find someone better.

But I agree that Tom Brady was the reason my Patriots won six Super Bowls.

The Latest Reports Around Skip And Shannon’s Fox Split

More news is emerging about the apparent incoming spilt between Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayles and it appears that, at the source of Fox’s problem in light Shannon’s departure, is that Skip is not wiling to take on just anyone as co-host, 

in fact the reports are that there are even fewer people within Fox that actually want to work with Skip Bayless.

This is very much in line with things we already know about the Fox network and it’s talents, if you remember a couple months ago, Doug Gottlieb had his issues with Skip Bayless, and since then Gottlieb has kind of been playing in his own corner, and hasn’t collaborated with or appeared on any of the other Fox programs, on television or online.

More news though is also starting to come out regarding Skip’s work habits.

Skip reportedly has final say on every aspect of the show, while that is less surprising and actually quite normal among prominent television personalities, Skip has gone so far as to ban or discourage his colleagues at Fox from mentioning him on social media, which is really counterproductive if you think of the exposure that one should get from working or appearing with Skip Bayless.

FrontOfficeSports.com has a really interesting article on their website about the challenge that Fox are facing in trying to find a new co-host for Skip Bayless.

Shannon Sharpe and Fox1 have agreed that he will buy himself out of his contract, and that’s important because it proves how badly he wanted out and how much he wants to change up his situation. It is also being said in FrontOffice’s that Shannon Sharpe also wanted more input in the show’s topic selection.

Credit to former Fox Sports and ESPN analyst Marcellus Wiley, who predicted this turn of events over 3 months ago.

All told, the two seem content to play nice on TV for now, the show is on air as per usual, but you’re a liar if you tell me that you can’t sense the tension in the air and the elephant floating in the room.
