Mark Cuban Destroys Skip Bayless on 'First Take' (Video)

I have made my fair share of "Skip Bayless is a Douche" posts on this site. I even posted 10 videos of him being a douche bag earlier this month...hell, I even compared him to Glenn Beck.

ESPN's "First Take" is usually broadcast out of a studio in Bristol, Connecticut, but the show traveled to Miami for the NBA Finals. So it was easy to get Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban as a guest on the show.

"First Take" is usually a decibel battle between Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless. I hear they play the show to torture inmates at Guantanamo Bay, but that is beside the point.

Cuban absolutely destroys Bayless for making blanket statements and speaking in generalities when he bashes players. The video is amazing and quite possibly my favorite video of someone calling out Skip Bayless.

The video is after the jump...


Let me know if this video gets taken down...I'm sure ESPN will do that very soon.

I'm Officially Announcing My Candidacy To Be An NBA GM

Charles Barkley has came out recently that he wants a job being a general manager in the NBA. He hasn't been the only person to lobby for this position. Deadspin recently wrote a review for Bill Simmons' book, "The Book of Basketball," and said it was a 700-page resumé to be an NBA GM. I guess since everyone else is doing it, why not me?

Dear NBA Owners,

My name is Bobby Roberts, but I am known around the internet as "Sweetbob." I am writing you to officially announce my candidacy for a general manager position with one of your teams. I know that there are more qualified than me and probably know more about the game than me, but c'mon, it would be a fun gig!

Here is the scenario, remember the movie "Eddie" starring the great Whoopi Goldberg? It would be a real-life version, but hopefully a lot more entertaining. Once I am announced as your new general manager, just imagine all of the press that your team would get. I would be on big news programs like "ESPN's First Take" or "Last Call with Carson Daly."

I'm from Indiana, so I have that going for me. Larry Bird didn't have any executive experience before he got the gig in Indiana and look what he's done! He's been the #9 seed in the East the last few years, what an amazing job he has done. I also went to an Indiana University affiliate, the same college that pumped out great NBA executives like Isiah Thomas and Mark Cuban.

I am throwing my hat in the ring for the same reason why Charles Barkley and Bill Simmons did...why not? It seems like a pretty easy job. I'm currently an accountant, so I can figure out salary cap numbers or if not, I can just try out trade on ESPN's Trade Machine. I think everyone deserves a shot, maybe we should start a lottery system where everyone has a year to turn an NBA team around. Think about it, maybe you can use those ping pong balls that you use for the NBA Draft. Everyone deserves a chance to mess it up, right?

Sincerely,
Bobby Roberts
