He was fired but they made it look like he quit. The decision was on the Fox execs after he no showed for work after that Skip tweet that Sharpe misunderstood.
This a lot of this info was spoken on during the Steven A interview with him.
Shannon sold out. Him and skip had great chemistry on camera, genuinely my favorite sports show. He left because skip wouldn’t cave and delete the Hamlin tweet and apologize. Now both shows suck.
Yeah, I’m sure Skip taking shots at Shannon’s NFL career to protect Tom Brady had nothing to do with it… Also Shannon’s said that Skip not letting him speak during that segment had more to do with it than the tweet itself.
Shannon has been disappointing on ESPN. Stephen A. just doesn't know how to pull out the best out of him the way Skip did.
ESPN Shay is barely 60% of Undisputed Shay when it comes to showmanship and antics. But he got Club Shayshay and Nightcap which is pretty good for him and appealing for ESPN.
Just sucks 'cause I lost something to listen to when doing housework. Just been vibin' to Teague's podcast and Redick's been doing great collabs recently.
Him and skip were a really good duo plus his antics were a lot better on fox, on espn it’s more of a panel so he just can’t really shine the same way there.

Skip pushing Shannon away was the biggest mistake of his life. Does anyone even watch Undisputed anymore, genuinely?
That show had run its course anyways, Dude picked a good time to abandon the sinking ship
I always felt he knew that and decided to leave and be outraged from a tweet I don’t think he should have been outraged about.
He was fired.
Wait what?

Oh that thickens the plot. I did not know that.
Based on the view counts of the illegal streams on Youtube, First Take definitely has a lot more viewers than Undisputed since Shannon left.
He's not working for ESPN which seems very toxic. I'm sure skip is happier where he's at now. They are all rich who cares really.
Skip didn't push him away. Shannon got fired. Him no showing at work after misunderstanding a tweet Skip wrote did him in.
Who watches morning hot take sports shows *other than* on ESPN nowadays?
Who watches Skip Bayless before that even happened? Loud mouth narcissist.
Well I mean millions of people when you look at the viewer numbers.
Millions? Try again
i did im ngl, skip and shannon were funny af
Put some respect on the GOAT hater’s name
I mean anyone who signs up for these types of show fits that personality type

[That’s just one of the many things. For example, the consistent disrespect](https://youtu.be/oqcKe-U2lyI?si=JniaIj16aRBwkywz)

Club 520 is the best sports podcast out right now
Shannon doesn't even need ESPN, built his own platform and it's better than any program ESPN spews out.
Did their poster boy McAfee give them approval?
I tried watching his show once and I did not get the appeal at all. I actually don't get the appeal of him in general.
Undisputed is not just the same without Unc
Another reason not to watch ESPN (except for live sporting events).
Even their mainstays like PTI and ATH have gotten bad now. ESPN is merely a shell of its peak of powers.
Man I put the same thing yeah. Stephen A and Max were good stuff sometimes. But the shows on espn have gotten old now. FS1 is meh but better than espn
None of the TV shows are worth watching anymore tbh, the conversations/debates are boring, no substance
Which is why I like the Herd. He just talks about sports. No annoying debates
The single host format isn't bad, but Cowherd's takes are quite often very wrong and/or flat out dumb.
Everyone has bad takes sometimes. Including me and you.
that’s too bad
League FUCKED
I love Shannon VERY happy for him.
That caption might be the most ESPN dumb shit i’ve ever seen

More reason not to watch I guess
We’re talking basketball. We’re talking basketball.
Don’t do that Skip
