Before I move on with this story, recently Skip Bayless was on Twitter trying to show off. The ESPN personality said he had an amazing high school basketball career and compared himself to Pete Maravich:

However, it was later discovered that he played his junior year on the JV squad. When he was a senior, he scored a grand total of 21 points....in 15 games. That totals to 1.4 PPG. Ouch. Adding to that, he said he helped his team out in the championship game, however, he did not record a single statistic in there.
This led to today's ESPN's First Take being probably the best I've ever seen, with Jalen Rose dissing Bayless as they were talking about Russell Westbrook. Bayless was going to try pulling off a stupid diss like he usually does, saying, "What position did you play, Jalen?"
Rose would fire back, mentioning his high school career. After that, Bayless remained speechless for the rest of the program:
I am so glad Bayless got a taste of his own damn medicine. This guy deserves after saying so much crap to professional athletes in which he gave no respect to (ex: dissing Cris Carter for not winning a Super Bowl ring and not crediting him at all despite being a future HOFer, continuing to call Chris Bosh "Bosh Spice" despite him telling Bayless that it disrespects the family name).
Bag it, Bayless.
