I am not sure if I am the only one who believes this, but it seems that no matter what the sports topic, Shannon Sharpe seems to always put forward the most logical and comprehensive argument in all of sports media. I can't remember another top level NFL player who is so eloquent with his speeches and has such a broad knowledge of sport in general, I personally hope he can move out from Skip's shadow and perhaps have his own show one day.

Are you being serious? I couldn't disagree further and think he's horrible.
Is this what you mean by eloquent and knowledgeable of all sports?

This is super subjective but I think he sucks.

I think you're too kind in your assessment, Eddie. SS always has been, and always will be, a loudmouth with very little to say.
-
Yeah he is horrible and he does nothing but spout talking points given to him by interns.

I disagree
Have you heard about his nonstop gushing about Lebron stop?
-
Hahah seems I am the only one.

i was rooting for him, hoping he would be good....very disappointed

Couldn't agree with you more Eddie. Sharpe is a buffoon who attempts to sound knowledgeable. Him and S*** Bayless both need to be fired immediately!
-
Hahah seems I am the only one.
ALL alone! You have the whole table to yourself! :laugh: If he can get lebrons man parts out of his mouth for a second, maybe he can even be somewhat understood when he speaks.
-
What were his thoughts on Deflategate?
-
I actually like him too, but the only part that annoys me is how he brings race into EVERYTHING.
Like in politics or racial issues, sure, absolutely, that's fine.
But like today, he was discussing Rodgers injury and how it wasn't a dirty hit, because Rodgers became "Cam Newton" on the play (mobile QB out of the pocket), and yet SOMEHOW be brought in race to that discussion (b/c you know.. Newton is black).
But he is usually pretty good, and speaks his mind quite a bit (not entirely biased), though he's such a bandwagoner too LOL.
Not the best but I don't think he's that bad. Can be kind of funny too though.

I can't say I watch much of the sports talk on TV anymore.
I can say I always liked his suits. He's a well dressed man.

said no one ever??

Yes, he is that, and unlike Skip, he actually wears a necktie.

No doubt. He's got great style.
He's also charismatic, and he's a heck of a leader.
That said, I just don't agree with a lot of his opinions.
I'm sick of sports being all about personalities and politics. For football, give me Ron Jaworski analyzing Xs and Os.

Maybe, but give us a specific reason or example to illustrate how you feel. I am open-minded. 8)

I generally like Sharpe. His football analysis is excellent and he seems to have a realistic approach to the bigger topic items from the other sports. The problem with those type of shows in general is that they touch on a lot of sports and a lot of topics and it is quite frankly just too difficult for the hosts to be an expert on everything so they sometimes make missteps.

Yep. Sports TV has the same model as TV News. The whole model is to put people on TV who can talk with authority, regardless of whether or not they know what they're talking about, and have them give their opinions. No analysis, just people giving their opinions as loud as possible so viewers can argue about whether or not they agree.
I'd rather come here and get opinions from people who aren't doing it for the money and are, often, just as informed.

Can't say I've watched this Fox show with him but I always found Sharpe to be a joke when he was working for CBS and doing the NFL Today.

Jaws is the only part of ESPN I like anymore. Everything else is garbage.

I'm a big Louis Riddick fan. Not much else over there that I'm a fan of these days, though.

this is akin to saying Stephen A Smith is the best basketball reporter/analyst. :o
-
At times Sharpe is insightful but Skip and producers wanted to put the same First Take show they did on espn. So what we end up seeing is a loud, arrogant, step on your feet FS1 version of Steven A Smith. Its like reality TV and this type of banter sells so all we re seeing is an act.. Even though Sharpe is a character he is 10x that for the show..

I love him only reason I pay attention to the show.
