New reports suggest Skip Bayless skipped his “farewell show” after accusing execs of failing to fix his feud with Shannon Sharpe.

Skip Bayless and his morning routine of showing up on television to talk sports on Undisputed has seemingly ended. The game-changing sports personality and FS1 have gone their separate ways but without much fanfare about the separation.

Skip has barely acknowledged his departure but posted a picture alongside Lil Wayne during their last day on set.

According to Front Office Sports, FS1 still took the corporate high road issuing a statement and thanking him for service.

Sources who contributed to FOS reporting also revealed Bayless passed on doing a “farewell show” or addressing his departure. This was allegedly due to his frustrations from being  “pushed out” after helping build the network.

Allegedly Bayless doesn’t blame himself for the show’s current standing but FSI for not fixing his beef with Shannon Sharpe.

In the end, FS1 bet on Skip and let Shannon Sharpe walk and now they must pull a Hail Mary to save the network and keep Colin Cowherd. First Take is still dominating morning time views and the longer FS1 struggles the wider margin they have to close.
