Shannon Sharpe is opening up on his relationship with Skip Bayless … confessing the 2 television characters just recently had “two bad months” together, however eventually, they had the ability to work things out and proceed.
Shannon and Skip have actually cohosted ‘Undisputed’ on FS1 for over 6 years now, however stress appeared to reach a boiling point after Bayless’ questionable tweet about Damar Hamlin in January … which triggered the NFL Hall of Famer to leave Skip to do the program alone.
The drama surrounding Skip’s tweet relatively validated speculation that there was a growing detach in between the 2 sides … now, Shannon says whatever concerns they had are a distant memory.
“I wasn’t gonna allow two bad months to ruin six years of a great working relationship,” Sharpe stated on The Adam Schein Podcast. “We have a great working relationship.”
Shannon says he took a seat with Skip to clarify … and they both recognized they “were better together than apart.”
Sharpe stated he and Skip aren’t buddies like Bayless is with his previous argument partner, Stephen A. Smith, however he believes their range really adds to a much better vibrant for their program.
“I think it helps our relationship on-air that we are not that close,” Sharpe stated. “He doesn’t know what I’m thinking and he doesn’t know what I’m going to say.”
In reality, Sharpe stated that he and Bayless’ on-air relationship remains in a better location now … and thinks if they ever got too close off-camera “it might have hurt our personal relationship.”
