Mercifully, the Fox Sports activities 1 debate present ‘Undisputed’ is on hiatus till late August, which provides community executives time to determine who will exchange Shannon Sharpe as co-host alongside Skip Bayless. Evidently it’s not been simple discovering a brand new debate associate for the preeminent voice of anti-reason.
And that’s the place Seattle Seahawks legend Richard Sherman doubtlessly may are available.
Extremely, “Skip and Shannon” to “Skip and Sherm” is a chance, in accordance with this report from New York Publish’s Andrew Marchand.
Richard Sherman has emerged as a candidate to be Skip Bayless’ associate on FS1’s “Undisputed,” The Publish has discovered.
Within the wake of Shannon Sharpe leaving this system after seven years, FS1 is within the midst of discovering Bayless’ new associate.
This system is in its regular summer time hiatus however will start once more on the finish of August.
I do know that the NY Publish doesn’t precisely have a sterling popularity even amongst New York newspaper retailers, however Marchand’s a veteran sports activities media insider who’s usually a dependable particular person. After all, “a candidate” doesn’t imply Sherman is a shoo-in for the job.
This might be an unbelievable rent if solely due to Sherman’s memorable look on ESPN’s ‘First Take’ again when Skip was on that present. You do not forget that, proper? Sherman referred to as Bayless an “ignorant, pompous, egotistical cretin.” and in addition demanded Skip deal with him as “All-Professional Stanford graduate.”
The Seahawks would go on to win the Tremendous Bowl that season, with Sherman once more notching one other 8 interceptions and totally establishing himself as one of many premier corners within the NFL.
Sherman is a part of Prime Video’s ‘Thursday Night time Soccer’ panel so there’s some stuff to work on the market in case Richard will get the ‘Undisputed’ gig. Admittedly, I don’t know quite a bit about Sherman’s non-football takes, however I hope he’s nicely ready for upwards of 250 annual debates centered round LeBron James and whether or not he has the clutch gene.
