Ravens’ Terrell Suggs, To ESPN’s Skip Bayless: “Don’t Be A Douchebag”

by Glenn Davis | 12:17 pm, January 23rd, 2012

The Ravens’ Terrell Suggs has turned into a somewhat regular foil for Skip Bayless on ESPN 2′s First Take. It works because Bayless will spew his intentionally inflammatory opinions (including those about the Ravens), and in return, Suggs will be his incredibly intense self. Ratings GOLD, we tell you.

But today, Suggs took it to another level. He went on First Take again, and considering his team just lost a shot at the Super Bowl yesterday, one might expect him to have been more ornery than usual. And it’s fair to say he was. Video evidence:

Even if Suggs was completely hamming it up: awesome. He said what, let’s face it, pretty much everyone wants to say to Bayless. Bayless’ persona is designed to make people want to say that, of course, but it’s no les satisfying to know that someone actually did it. Ball So Hard University must encourage bluntness, and we couldn’t be happier about it.

Skip is a douchebag.

For those of you who forgot what made Skip relevant, please refer to the fact he basically called Troy Aikman gay with unsubstantiated rumors. ESPN (cable news wannabee) needed ratings hired him as blowhard. The more attention he gets the more often he will stay stupid things. Our best option is to simply ignore him.

If you’re a grown man named “Skip,” you’re automatically a douchebag.

Skip sounds like some of the moderators from the debates.
I hope Suggs puts him out of his misery when they meet in person.

Skip is a douchebag so it’s surprising he’s not a Giants fan.

Skip only beats Rob Parker on First Take otherwise everyone beats Skip in the debates. Reason I say he only beats parker is because he is Douchebag more than Skip but that doesn’t say much. I still wish former Lions coach layed smackdown on Parker for going after his family that was so uncool of Parker to do that.
