Michael Strahan made sure to let people know that he wasn’t a fan of a certain Fox media analyst (ahem, Skip Bayless), ahead of the Patriots-Bills game.

Last week’s Bills-Bengals game sparked a series of unfortunate events. Bills safety Damar Hamlin was hit hard in his chest leading to cardiac arrest.
For several hours, the NFL community held their breath as they awaited news of Hamlin’s recovery. It was a matter of life and death, and in the midst of all that, reactions and prayers from all over the NFL community flew in, praying for Hamlin’s safety.
However, Skip Bayless had an insensitive Tweet that didn’t fly over so well with the NFL community. The NFL cancelled the Bills-Bengals game, as everyone expected, which prompted a weird reaction from Skip.
No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game – but how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome … which suddenly seems so irrelevant.

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless had a tense moment on The Undisputed segment regarding this Tweet, and now, it seems like another Fox analyst has spoken up against Skip.

Michael Strahan takes a shot at Skip Bayless
Given the circumstances, Skip’s Tweet was highly insensitive. Even if he meant something else, given the last line, the way he put across his thoughts, and the timing of it, made it completely heartless.
Before the Bills-Pats game today, Michael Strahan seemed to take a shot against Skip Bayless.

It’s not hard to guess that Strahan was talking about Skip here, and it makes perfect sense. Skip and Shannon’s feud on TV was another dark sign of things at Fox.

Things might get a little tense at Fox, and nobody knows for sure what the status of Skip on the team is going forward.
Meanwhile, the Bills game got off to a hot start. The Bill returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown in one of the most memorable moments of the NFL season, a clear tribute to Damar Hamlin if anything.

The Pats have come back to tie the game, and they need to make sure they win today to qualify for the playoffs. However, that start couldn’t have written better.
