Skip Bayless finds himself at the center of a bombshell lawsuit after being lured into a battle of sexual exploits by Shannon Sharpe.
That’s according to his former Fox Sports co-worker Jason Whitlock, who has accused Sharpe of ‘baiting’ his former co-host into a ‘sexual Olympics’.
‘He walked around that place like he was banging every makeup and wardrobe girl in the place… (he) was known for running around there in the tightest little boxer shorts he could find and nothing else,’ Whitlock said of the former NFL star.
‘He has baited Skip Bayless – for lack of a better explanation – into a pimp competition. Who can have the most girls in hair and makeup like them? Want to be with them?’
He added: ‘That competition is for idiots, that competition is for people that want to get “Me Too’d”, that competition is for people that want to end up in a lawsuit – and that’s where Skip is.’
Bayless allegedly offered a former colleague $1.5million to sleep with him, according to the lawsuit filed in Los Angeles.
The former Undisputed host, 73, is accused of using his position to ‘sexually harass women’ and ‘inappropriately touching’ a hairstylist who worked on his show.
Noushin Faraji has made a series of stunning allegations – first reported by Front Office Sports – including that Bayless gave her ‘lingering hugs and kisses’ on multiple occasions.
Sharpe is not named in the lawsuit and the ex-NFL star has insisted: ‘That ain’t got nothing to do with me.’ But Whitlock believes Sharpe might have played his part in dragging Bayless into a competition over women.
‘Understand Skip’s personality and how hyper competitive – in a delusional way – he is,’ Whitlock said.
‘He actually thought the debates on that show (Undisputed) were real… he’s a weird and different dude. So he’s locked into a competition with Shannon Sharpe – in his mind.’
As a result, Whitlock claimed, Sharpe toyed with Bayless and ‘drew’ him into a battle in a field ‘he will never be on the same planet as me on.’
‘There’s a sexual Olympics inside male locker rooms… everybody is swapping stories about who they’re banging,’ Whitlock explained.
‘So Skip Bayless – in his own foolishness – thinks he’s competing with Shannon Sharpe and Shannon Sharpe’s ability to seduce, flirt with, conquer the women inside the Fox Sports wardrobe, makeup, hair stylist locker room.’
According to the lawsuit, Bayless ‘became more aggressive over the years’ and later accused Faraji of having sex with Sharpe.
‘This dude is jealous of Shannon Sharpe and he’s seeing ghosts everywhere – and Sharpe is putting those ghosts out there,’ Whitlock claimed.
‘He started competing with Shannon Sharpe in the sexual Olympics, he got out over his skis, he said something stupid and now a lawyer has it and has turned it into something else. That’s how that goes down.’
