Skip Bayless is trying to do whatever he can to get past this terrible moment where he seemed to care more about a football game being played than Damar Hamlin suffering cardiac arrest on the field of play.
The FS1 broadcaster and “Undisputed” co-host is under fire for a tweet about Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who suffered cardiac arrest during Monday’s road game against the Cincinnati Bengals before having his heartbeat restored.
“No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game — but how?” Bayless tweeted Monday night. “This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome … which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”
He got blasted badly from every corner of the country. It has gotten so bad that on Tuesday’s episode of Undisputed, he suddenly turned into a LeBron fan.
As we all know, his career was basically made by being a devout LeBron hater for years. He took his dislike for James from ESPN to Fox Sports. We will see how long this lasts as he may just keep it up until this Hamlin controversy blows over.
As of early Tuesday afternoon, the latest update on Hamlin was that the second-year pro was in critical condition at a Cincinnati hospital. Hamlin was sedated late Monday night and put on a breathing tube.
