I’m not the only one who actually thinks Skip Bayless had a valid point regarding his comments about Derek Jeters and PED.
Somebody named Pat from FanIQ.com also agrees with Bayless, although don’t confuse him with being a fan. He writes:
99% of the time, Skip Bayless makes almost no sense at all, and his opinions are completely worthless.
On Wednesday, for the first time in a long time, Bayless actually made an excellent point that no one else in the sports world was willing to make. He was absolutely right, and it was a timely message to the rest of the sports media and to fans.
Surprisingly, everyone ripped Bayless for these comments, and accused him of everything from trolling to being the sports equivalent of Kim Kardashian.
What did Skip say that was so controversial?
Not much, really. Just something that should have been in the back of everyone’s mind for a while.
Indeed, Bayless didn’t say Jeter was taking PEDs. He said you have to allow for the possibility that Jeter, or any athlete, is juicing considering what came out this week on the cheating front.
While it may not be fair, no athlete is beyond suspicion these days. That’s Bayless’ point.
