A friendship where both individuals find comfort and support in each other. Wayne frequently appears on the show Skip hosts, UNDISPUTED. And some or the other time, along with himself, one of the greatest rappers brings goodies for his friend. The two talk about various topics. Not only are they chatty, but the sports analyst only talks to Lil Wayne off-air.
Since they are great friends, Bayless and his wife, Ernestine Sclafani, visit Wayne at his mansion. On The Skip Bayless Show, he announced how proud he was of Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. and looks at him like a brother. “We’re both our own man, that we do and say what we believe is right. And I know Wayne looks up to me and what I achieved in my business and I look way up to him in his creative genius,” he said.

I’m actually having a harder time wrapping my brain around the fact that Lil Wayne was still in his thirties as of yesterday, than I am the fact that the @49ers coughed that game up tonight.

Does Skip Bayless dislike Aaron Rodgers?
Skip Bayless is an analyst. This inadvertently makes him a critic. Therefore, disliking or at least over-criticizing certain athletes becomes quite common for him. Like, his infamous displeasure for LeBron James and Aaron Rodgers is something that has been constant.

And after the Week 3 game of the Green Bay Packers against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Skip was ready to type out a mean tweet after A-Rod made an interception.
That's the Aaron Rodgers I know and love, throwing a momentum-swinging interception, then motioning at the receiver that he ran the wrong route.

Rodgers threw an interception against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and frowned at the receiver, who cut his route short. Well, in the leading QB’s defense, the team is trying to rise against the absence of their former star receiver, Davante Adams. However, as an analyst, surely the viral Tweet will receive popping eyes and nodding heads. If it were Lil Wayne instead of the Packers QB, would Skip have typed that Tweet?
