ESPN tried to sneak a press release about Skip Bayless leaving the network when his contract expires this summer under the radar but Twitter wasn’t going to let that happen.
Skip Bayless has decided to leave ESPN when his contract expires at the end of August. His final appearance on First Take will be the day after the NBA Finals conclude. We want to thank Skip for his many contributions to ESPN. His hard work and talent have benefited ESPN for 12 years. – ESPN
First Take & Skip Bayless has been the biggest show on the network for nearly a decade, yet people seem happy to see Skip go.
