Skip Bayless Says Troy Aikman Is Gay

"I wish I had sledgehammered [my statements] because it was the truth and everyone who knew what was going on inside the locker room told me the book was a terrific job and that I nailed it.

Because I did. It’s exactly what happened. All I heard from people around the country who didn’t read the book was, “You outed Troy Aikman?” I didn’t. The coach definitely thought he was gay and a lot of his teammates thought he was gay. More than that, they thought he was racist and they thought he was trying to get Barry Switzer."WL

Do I think Aikman was gay? No. Does this make me like Skip Bayless more? Yes. i have been a huge fan of Bayless and his work on first and 10 and I think this is great. Anyone who calls someone gay with nothing to back it up is a fan in my book.

Daily Cowboy Drama

Well, just when you thought you could get some time off from the stupid fucking Cowboys, the media has found a way to bring them back into the spotlight. Last week it was rumors of Owens being cut. This week it is Troy Aikman coming out and ripping Tony Romo.

"I think maybe things happened so quickly for Tony in terms of obscurity to all of a sudden national spotlight that he hasn't fully grasped what being the Cowboys quarterback is all about," Aikman said to Irvin. "And you don't go to Cabo the week before a playoff game. You just don't do it (ESPN)."

I hate Tony Romo probably more than anyone else in the world, but this is just unnecessary. Not only are we talking about last year's playoffs, but we are doing it during a time when really only the Super Bowl should be being discussed. I think Romo is a terrible QB, and that the Cowboys are really just one big soap opera. The last thing they need is former Cowboy greats coming back, and shitting on current players. I really do like Aikman as a commentator, but this is something he should have left alone.
