Honestly, I think Skip Bayless is nothing more than a professional troll but I think y'all are looking too much into a poorly thought out tweet. I didn't read it as nefarious. I think he was basically thinking out loud. I made a similar post earlier. Like how are they going to reschedule this game this late in the season even if they want to? He ended it by saying it feels like it really doesn't matter in the current atmosphere. It was basically just clumsily worded. He's a professional blowhard dickhead but I'm just not seeing the awfulness in that tweet.

Didn't they continue the UNC game after a ref collapsed a few years ago?

Damn. In other news, Ken Block died in a snowmobile accident today.

 

When it's your time it's your time.

 

This is a horrible thing that has happened but it happens every year in football just not always on National TV. 

It's still a very rare thing to happen. There's no reason people should retire, change rules or any other action. 

Leave it in a tie.

This is just a pure copium way to go through life. So why bother to wear a seatbelt, look both ways before crossing a road, try to take care of yourself, etc? When it's your time it's your time, right? Hell, we can just go jump off a bridge and if it's not our time then I guess some miraculous intervention will save us.

Not really. You just don't live in fear.

So you take no safety precautions at all in life? If you truly believed that when it's your time it's your time then you wouldn't. There would be nothing you could do about it anyway so why bother?

That is not at all what he's saying. It's simply that you do the things you love and that bring you joy, control the things and risks within that that you can actually control, and don't let fear of what you can't control steal that joy.

What you're describing is reckless nihilism, and that ain't it at all.

For those kinds of words to come into someones head in the middle of a traumatic event comes off as incredibly insensitive. If he had a family member in this situation how would he react if someone just walked up and said that same sentiment to him? Disgusting in my opinion

That was an ordinary play with an extremely unlikely and unfortunate result. There is no one to blame and no reason to change anything. It was an awful event and hopefully Damar Hamlin recovers.

I mean then just don’t reply? Or attempt to articulate yourself better in the original reply. The topic was about rescheduling the game. I suggested they shouldn’t. The other poster agreed with me. 
 

I couldn’t tell if you were just being a jerk because the Panthers missed the playoffs, that this situation shook you up so bad you can’t possibly think two weeks ahead or if something else was going on. 
 

I’ll ignore the “intelligent” crap because you’re upset tonight. 

Okay so now that I'm calmed down, let me ask you a question :

Why would I say "F the playoffs" in a situation like this after everything I have posted (like boycotting the stupid sponsors, being annoyed by the fans in the crowd, etc.) that would make you think this was about the rescheduling of the game? 🤔

I couldn't care less about any of that or the playoffs for that matter.

A man is fighting for his life here and that takes Top Priority over any Football-related "concern" such as anything involving the Playoffs.  

 

Now as far as the first part of your response here....

You responding with "Huh?" without elaborating what you're "Huh"-ing about, was real crappy.

And you have the absolute nerve to tell me to attempt to articulate myself better after you put up THAT reply (huh?)?    How about practicing what you preach, hmm? 🧐

not safe for work no GIF

Nothing of what he said was bad. Cool it.

    • I don't do locks lol. I just bet +1000 and up and can hit at a decent rate. Combine ml winners and team shots on target. Do better in champions league than anything else
    • Did not expect this from national media. https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/10-best-nfl-defenses-2026-texans-seahawks-broncos 10. Carolina Panthers   Key additions: OLB Jaelan Phillips (FA), LB Devin Lloyd (FA), DT Lee Hunter (draft) Key losses: DT A’Shawn Robinson (FA) Don’t be surprised to see the Panthers, who ranked 15th in points allowed and 16th in yards given up last season, make the leap into the top-10 conversation in 2026.  They added two of the marquee defensive free agents in edge rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd. Cornerback Jaycee Horn is coming off back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons. Carolina lost starting defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson in free agency but essentially replaced him with second-round pick Lee Hunter, who had 10.5 tackles for loss at Texas Tech last season.  Ejiro Evero, one of the NFL’s most respected defensive coordinators, has plenty of talent to work with.
    • unless you have a bonafide superstar at Qb you bring in competition every year until you do & or at the very least you want a legitimate plan B in case of an injury .the problem in Carolina is they know Bryce ayoung most likely could not actually win a real legitimate NFL Qb competition right now & if & when he did not win that aforesaid Qb competition it would not only be a major distraction but a setback to his overall development.& moreover once the fans realized they had a much better Qb on the roster it would be alot of public pressure to start the better Qb  ...just saying
