Football is attractive. Sports persons are driven by the desire to show their craft and emerge victorious while playing for the premier sports league. The reasons could be immense- fame, money, accolades and etc. However, with a recent documentary under development for a star player, some scathing accusations have come across. The information and details have left fans bewildered and dejected, to say the least.

Lately, a miffed and clearly disappointed Skip Bayless gave out certain revelations. The leading American sports columnist didn’t mince any words when speaking about the FCF Zappers QB Johnny Manziel. Bayless specifically highlighted the troubled and tumultuous life of the quarterback. The views came to light due to Manziel’s new Netflix docu-series “Untold: Johnny Football”. The revelations have taken the NFL by storm and touched base with the once sought-after young quarterback and how his life went downhill soon after.

Confronting Johnny Manziel’s Alter Ego

Skip Bayless on his Thursday’s “The Skip Bayless Show” went all in for Johnny Manziel. Bayless dug deeper into the controversial 2022 FCF’s People’s Champion winner life through his YouTube channel and gave some honest remarks. Bayless spoke in apparent frustration, “Yet as Johnny points out from the start his motto was win or lose we booze!” This didn’t go down well with Bayless as his emotions turned to rage and anger.

Bayless further continued “In what came clear to me from the start Johnny only played football to party. As he said he developed an alter ego of Johnny, pardon my language, Johnny fu***ng football!”  Bayless seemed like a concerned father whose own son had gone down the bad track.

His tone changed to desperation and was surely aghast as to what had become of the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner. He further stressed that the more games Manziel played and started in, he got more leverage to star in the party and consume booze. However, there were some other startling revelations that came through the docuseries.
