Stephen A calls out john calipari

[AntG168]

On college game day said his one championship is unacceptable. First time I've heard it outside the boneyard haha

Hahaha

For the love of all that is holy- this is OT.
This is a UCONN board. Put it in the NCAA thread or OT it- or do us a favor- and don't post about UK anymore.
We have standards here - low true - but standards.

Love.Love.Laugh....relax. It's a message board

SAS is one of the few people more scummy than Cal.

 

[Ts5034]

Thats funny stuff. He makes a great point and I give him credit since so many others in the media give Calipari a pass for this.

 

[2Husky]

did he go on and on about how the two are close personal friends and the godparents to each others children before saying it?

The funny thing is, as bad as SAS and Skip are, they are one of the few people on ESPN who at least try to back up their points with things like logic, statistics, memory, context. And yes, they make points opposed to one another to drive up ratings, and they adopt sensationalized stances, but they are two of the very, very, very few who don't seem to need psychoanalysts to help them.

This is saying a lot more about ESPN than Skip and SAS themselves.

They are both horrendous with Stephen A. being a little more offensive.

Not sure that I could disagree more.

Very interesting observation. To me, Skip Bayless is the living embodiment of an internet troll. He intentionally takes absurd positions, no matter how illogical, that he knows will inflame his viewers. I don't think he's the first person that would jump to mind if someone asked me "who in sports media makes reasoned, logical arguments?"

You are the only one who constantly complains about not using OT. This thread is titled "Stephen A calls out John Calipri". If you can't figure out what the topic of this thread is about then that's your fault and not the op. It's a post related to college hoops on a college basketball board.

Don't click on the thread then, and stop bi*chin about it.

Thank you for making me laugh hysterically while studying in the library.

This is me backing up my point that SKIP BAYLESS IS AN UNINFORMED, RATINGS HUNGRY PIECE OF GUTTER TRASH.... with things like logic, memory and context.

I think SAS is the exact opposite of what you describe here. Some people have the odd opinion straight out of left field. SAS lives out there.

They're both actors reading their ESPN scripts. Steven A gets the cool trendy usually appealing to the younger generation while Bayless gets to play the roll of the old troll. The idiots that tune in eat that ish up.

One calling out another.

Skip is definitely playing a character, but I think SAS really is who he is.
