*Updated Title* Twitchy Sports: Skip Bayless Believes The Kirk Cousins Pick Could Cause Racial Tensions Amongst Redskins Fans. OP updated with Video of Bayless's Bumbling Bloviating BS.

[Boss_Hogg]

Updated thread title. The TwitchySports article was way off.

Well that didn't take long. I thought we would hear from Wilbon, Reid, or 106.7 the fan first.

On ESPN’s First Take, sports analyst Skip Bayless said the only reason Washington drafted Cousins is because the Redskins are RACIST!!

@ginobrunetti Skip Bayless just said DC is racist, that's why they drafted Cousins with RGIII. He's obviously never seen DC.

I turn it on @ESPN_FirstTake and what do i hear? RGIII and Cousins and a racist element. Stop making dumbass comments.

Mike Shanahan drafted Kirk Cousins, because Shanahan is a racist and after 3 years he'll dump RG3 and have Cousins as the QB. Lmfao

Skip Bayless is a complete IDIOT for bringing up the race card between RG3 & Cousins!!! Can we for once get pass the color of someone's skin

Skip just played the race card on Stephen A over rgiii and cousins. Facial expression on Stephen A. #priceless

@stephenasmith emphasizing DC as "Chocolate City". But Skip over analyzing as usual. Race plays no part in RG3 and Cousins dilemma

Extremely disappointed in @RealSkipBayless for playing the race card about the Cousins pick @ESPN_FirstTake

Link to Video: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=7872352 Skip says the majority of Redskins season ticket holders are white and they are more likely to boo the black QB if the white QB outplays RG3 in the preseason.

Tell me that's not racist.

Race talk starts @ 6:00

[warren]

OMG...like shanny will be here if RGIII fails.

[Boss_Hogg]

Bayless then referred to all the white Redskins Fans in the DC as racists.

He needs to be fired, this is unacceptable.

[Mr. Sinister]

I knew it would happen. I just didn't know that it would be Skip.

[drtdrums]

Yep. Shanny is racist for drafting a guy that is going to boot Rex Grossman to the curb. Wait, you say Rex is white?

*smacks forehead*

[Rypien1191]

Bayless = Cowherd = only exist to be contrarians and piss people off. I never pay either a lick of attention.

[roanoker]

You've gotta be kidding. Is Bayless on the crack pipe?

[Fight4RGIII]

Well I am going to have to tune into the 12 oclock show

[rebornempowered]

There needs to be some sort of form you can fill out online to inform villages that their idiots are missing.

[tibbidoe]

This isn't the first time I've heard that "Mike Shanahan is racist". Where does this opinion of him come from?

[Saqs]

Just insane............................................ ...

[Fight4RGIII]

I'd go heckle him tonight, but he is at the sports emmys nominated for, "Sports Analyst of the Year." Good god...

[Skinz4Life12]

This doesn't even make sense. He's just trying to get a rise out of people

[SkinsTerps26]

Well I am going to have to tune into the 12 oclock show

Thats the point. Skip says **** for one reason only, self promotion

[tiger187126]

I knew it would happen. I just didn't know that it would be Skip.

this is what i figured the biggest uproar would be. people thinking that a white QB who is intelligent is somehow threatening to our black QB.

if you drop race, we have two smart quarterbacks we drafted and one has limitless physical tools who has been handed the keys to the franchise.

i don't get how somehow bringing in cousins detracts from all the positives of griffin, like somehow he isn't a smart qb who works his ass off because there's another qb fitting that description in the building.
