"Speaking on Fox Sports' "Undisputed," Bayless questioned Prescott's ability to be a team leader after going public with his battle with depression in the wake of his brother's death in April -- I don’t have sympathy for him going public with, ‘I got depressed. I suffered depression early in COVID to the point where I couldn’t even go work out.’ Look, he’s the quarterback of America’s Team-[Fox Sports responded by saying] "We do not agree with Skip Bayless’ opinion on Undisputed this morning. We have addressed the significance of this matter with Skip and how his insensitive comments were received by people internally at FOX Sports and our audience.”
Fox should have fired Skip, why Skip still has a job period is beyond me -- given his history...I grew up in Dallas, I am very familiar with the BS he has done -- in fact, he got ran up out of Dallas because of it... Dak Prescott's older brother [white T-shirt] committed suicide this past April -- Dak and his 2 brothers have a deep bond -- they had no idea Jace was dealing with depression after the passing of their mother from cancer and never sought help for it and he never told anyone about it -- Dak and his other brother did seek help...and that help was key......
Later, Dak went public and shared his story of dealing with the depression because he felt this topic is too stigmatized and one is made to feel weak for saying they need help -- and as for Skip -- this habit we see of those in the media, trolling for attention and mouse clicks -- this is exactly the reason why Skip and so many others do what they do -- they have no real talent to offer other than trying to say something edgy or offensive to get attention.....I lost 2 older brothers in the span of 6 months so I know how it feels....and I can't imagine some sports reporter with little man complex talking shit about me and my brothers' death for ratings; it wouldn't go well for him -- I may not be much of a Dak fan as a player, but I definitely have much more respect for him as a man...
