"I've Covered The Game Longer Than You've Been Alive!" Things Get Personal On "Undisputed" After Skip Bayless And Richard Sherman Get Into Over Injured Florida State Player

Source - Things got heated between Skip Bayless and Richard Sherman on the “Undisputed” set on Tuesday.

The FS1 host and the former All-Pro cornerback didn’t see eye-to-eye while debating the “hip-drop tackle” after Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis suffered a serious left leg injury due to the tactic in a blowout win against North Alabama on Saturday.

“Let me finish, Richard,” Bayless said when the former Super Bowl champ interrupted him. “I’m speaking. Thank you.”

Sherman took issue with Bayless talking about something he’s never had experience doing.

“I’ll let you speak, but you’re not speaking from experience, so stop raising your voice, Skip,” he said.

The two had an infamous feud on “First Take” in 2013 when Bayless was still with ESPN and Sherman starred for the Seahawks. It seems tensions still exist now that they are colleagues, as Tuesday’s segment only got more awkward.

The 23-year-old senior said in an Instagram statement Monday that the lower left leg injury marks the end of his playing career with the No. 5 Seminoles.

Ahh yes, SkipBayless and Richard Sherman. Two level headed, non egotistical, guys with a contentious past and an underlying hatred for each other. What could possibly go wrong? Here's a hint: everything. To be honest I'm surprised that's all we got. I'm sure if Richard was in the room he wold've reached across the table and smacked Skip. Even if he didn't deserve it for this particular instance, he deserves it for being arguably the most annoying man of all time. "Let me finish. I'm speaking. Thank you." How fucking condescending can one guy get? But hey, that's what Skip does. He stirs the pot in the worst way possible. It's almost like he tries to do what Kirk does. The difference is Kirk is actually good at it. Kirk understands the joke and is in on it, Skip is just a dick. 

I asked a Ugandan football player/coach what he thought of the tackling technique in question and here's what he had to say...
