    Whoever they get to replace skip, I hope it's someone with a decent knowledge of MMA.

    I never got the hate for skip, the dude is full of ? but I don't take it serious because it's entertaining.

    Only thing I appreciate is that he's sympathetic towards racism against blacks. While SAS is cowarding against whites Skip will say "I'm white so I won't even try to act like I understand". He even used the term of him having white privilege while a lot of other whites be afraid to admit it.

    I respeck it but I can't help but think he's trying just a bit to pander at times

    Probably. He does have a large black audience so it would work in his favor.

    i don't get the trent dilfer hate. he is a good analysts.

    he is well prepared, articulate, informative and is not biased. you can tell he is a student of the game.

    just because an athlete wasn't an all time great doesn't mean they don't know what they are talking about.

    we all saw how bad emmitt smith was on tv

    Dilfer and Berman were awful as a team in that MNF game last season

    What I find crazy is why are they offering these guys so much money but don't have the actual sports that people watch on their network.

    I mean I get that 1st Take got crazy ratings but I would venture that nothing gets better ratings than the actual sports themselves. I honestly haven't set down and watched one of those talk shows in years.

    They do but the problem is, the conversation does usually gravitate to something about Rousey or Mcgregor. Stephen A comes off more as a casual fan and Skip comes off as barley interested at all. Molly actually knows more about MMA than both of them.
