Theoretically, he wouldn’t have to move from California if he went back to ESPN as I’m sure they’d make an exception with how desperate they want his services. He’s been on their network a few times in the past couple of years, so the invitation is already there.
If he dips, it’ll be to go independent imo. Seems his production company, the volume, is doing well. I can see him sticking around though. Skip leaving just upped Colin’s asking price.
Colin pretty much have Fox on ransom because he is the only A tier host they have right now. Acho ain't it and I don't think that Wright or FTF can compete with First Take on a daily basis.
It's pretty crazy because they would consistently talk about a variety of different sports on the early iteration of 1st Take with Dana and Jay.
Yeah, Bo doesn't fukk with Skip. He recalled a debate they had years ago on ESPN that led to him getting blackballed on 1st Take on his podcast last week.
Undisputed never beat First Take but it was able to take a chunk out of their weekly ratings and give them a small following. FS1 needs to find a show or someone who can distinguish themselves and keep FS1 relevant. I don't know if Wright or the crew on FTF can make their niche where a following would religiously watch them over what is on ESPN during the same time.
Which athlete would want Skip to interview them? Skip sucks on his own personal podcast and his shtick has become outdated. ESPN doesn't want him and I can't see any other decent size sports podcaster wanting to play 2nd fiddle to him where he would want control. Skip needs to enjoy the twilight of life with his wife, dog, and be happy that he made millions by being a troll of Lebron along with his Cowboy fandom

When is the last time Skip done a serious interview with an major professional athlete? The majority of his guest hosts were former pros just to give insight on a game or a team.
