I'd take issue with at least 2 of Bayless' points:
Baseball is a northern as well as southern game.
Holy Cross in '52, Minnestoa in '64! Give me a break. The best players consistently come from or gravitate to warm places and that has been true for at least the last 3 decades.
Americans (only) love big league baseball.
Although perhaps outside the scope of this article, I think there has been a great upsurge of interest in minor league baseball. In the Philadelphia area where I live there are now minor league teams in Camden, Trenton, Wilmington and Reading.

Skip Bayless is always wrong.
Minor League Baseball has broken attendance records for about ten years straight. I'd imagine college has as well. No, college baseball does not have the viewership that college basketball and football do, for various reasons, but it is growing.

Skip Bayless is the biggest buffoon @ the Four-Letter Network. He has been despised by both fans and athletes alike everywhere he has been.
I would like to see him take a severe crotch-kicking on the set of Cold Pizza. I guess no one would see it, though.

Skip Bayless is always wrong. I think that phrase sums up Mr. Bayless perfectly. I will start saying that instead of "No-nothing Okie who will stop at nothing to demean the Dallas Cowboys franchise."
