i fucks wit numbers never lie.. wish it was a hour long tho...

 
Numbers Never Lie is a great show. michael Smith, Hugh Douglass anf Jalen Rose are a great combo. To answer the thread Skip Bayless is the most powerful. How can someone whose opionion is supposedly so worthless garner so much reaction?

My list would go something like this:

1) Skip Bayless - Love him or hate him, he gets buzz like no one else... Everyone, even other people in the Sports Media, Hang on his every word.... He was a big part of creating the Tebow Phenomenon...

2) Stephen A Smith - Saturday Night live, McDonalds and Star Trek Commercials, 48% of first take (I'll give skip 52%)...

3) Mike Greeney - They have a syndicated radio show, and 4 hour tv show... So these motherfuckers got 2 streams of revenue from TV and Radio ads...

If you look up everyone's salaries (though I'm sure some are incorrect), you'd be suprised....

They say Greeney makes $2million a year...

Colin Cowherd 2 million a year (seriously?)

Skip Bayless $500k a year ( i know this can't be right... He probably got a massive raise over the last 2 years)

Stephen A like $400k a year (I know this can't be right either)

Mike Wilbon - $1.5 million a year... This was suprising to me... I guess PTI is doing big things.

It's been doing big things from day one. It's the father to every show on ESPN besides outside the lines
 
As much as I dislike him it HAS to be Bill Simmons.

He's getting money off the top from Grantland and 30 for 30. Goodnight folks. Party over.

That money alone>>>>ESPN personality money. And he's the ONLY one who's doing it big on that level not once but twice.

Then factor in he's surpassed just ESPN, he's now on NBA countdown.

(think to yourself, PERHAPS ya'll are a lil shortsided-all yall are mentioning is ESPN personalities)

Yall have no clue what power is.

Power is John Hollinger going from ESPN stat guru to VP of basketball Ops for the Grizzlies.

The Skip Baylesses of the worlds get tv shows then die out

The Bill Simmonses will be heads of marketing/programming/etc. at ESPN in a few years

Skip is the reason im coming close to not fucking with first take anymore. He's a fucking idiot, and his arguments are constantly based on woulda..coulda...shoulda instead of the present the time. Risky, but It might not be a bad idea to replace him on the show. I can't take the show serious anymore. I like Stephen A tho... he keeps it solid for the most part.

they should replace him wit bomani jones.. that would be interesting
 
its amazing how blind some of yall clowns are to the marketing of espn to troll black folks via the espn first and drama queen show. I aint gon be a brotha easily fooled and trolled like that. But skip and steven a def the most powerful they get folk so mad for such a scripted show cleary built around the premise of trolling people.
 
^^^^^^

Yea...but Skip aint going nowhere anytime soon. The ratings too high regardless of how garbage the shit is starting to get. They could even replace the nigga with Jamel. Colin could be an interesting replacement in my imo

think we talked about this in another thread but completely agree. On sports nation he just didn't seem right and i think thats why he ended up not staying on the show post move to cali.

powerful personality not status dawg lls
 
Colin talk about the same 4 things. LaBron is the best, Carmello sucks, Tebow sucks, and Romo is under-appreciated. If he got fired tomorrow they would just put someone els right in that spot. I gotta go with skip or the nfl dude. Berman
