I was on T.O side but Shannon talking about his granny put it into perspective. It's still his decision but dang yea he could of went and let em have it but then they still woulda been like see he's petty like we said. So it's a lose lose
Yes Shannon I love now that he isn't taunting my chiefs and I always love the grandfather and grandmother stories of good sense my opinion of Mr. Shannon totally changed.
@@Channel-23s doesn't matter and doesn't take away from anything he said.. watching the game and playing are 2 very different things...gtfoh you a 🤡 you probably never even played a sport in your life at any level...
Quan Bailey Yes, he’s a Hall of Famer nonetheless, but there are further accolades attached to going on the first or second go round. He beyond a shadow of a doubt has earned that nod...
Eventually they made it right. Randy Moss and TO are synonymous. You cant have one in the Hall of Fame without the other. The TWO BEST receivers in the 2000s got in together.
I love T O but he was wrong He had a chance to have his name become face He is great and being true to yourself is even better but the HoF ain't got nothing to do with that I agree with Uncle Shay
Dramatic _Donald Exactly. The fact she died 1 month before his HOF induction was the part that got me. She didn’t get to see him on stage smh. Life is unfair man.
Jamia Dixon agree. You get voted in for your talent. You dont get voted in or out for your attitude or behavior. This again, is why Pete Rose should be in the hall.
Your behavior can hold you back in life no matter your accomplishments, be humble have good character along with your talent,being a obnoxious self centered baby is not respected!,see what roseanne going thru
facts. his talent dictated that he was in. so whether he attends or not is irrelevant. this isnt high school. i think he wanted it so bad and by time he got in he was bitter. because they purposely held him up to put him in his place and put that asterisk by it.
People forget Art Monk led every receiving category there was when he retired. Long before Jerry Rice broke his records. That man waited 10+ years to get in. Now that was wrong
Things like this happen in baseball too and it sucks. Roberto Alomar was denied first ballot induction because of his umpire spit incident even though he apologized and years later had a good relation with the umpire. T.O. was the most complete wide receiver to play the game in my opinion and I was very happy he did not go to Canton as a protest to the clowns that vote on these inductions. These players sacrifice a lot of their lives to get to that level and it's shameful that inept people pass judgement on something that costs blood, sweat and tears to these men.
I’m sorry but you can’t compare T.O. with Monk in my opinion. I think that T.O. is a top 15 player of all time. Watching this guy play the game along with the stats are undeniable. Of course writers and voters had something against this cat and the NFL allowed people who didn’t play the game get away with him.
@Ladh 70 Pete lied for 14 years had he just said I did it I'm sorry he would've been in but no he decided to knowingly lie to everyone as if we were all fn idiots
@@cabalogia Thank you. People are shills who think players should just be “grateful” when they earned every thing that has been given to them. To deny someone what they rightfully earned because of politics is shameful and all the fans enable it.
Childish immature ending. It's pathetic how so many comments are saying thumbs up too childish behavior. Whatever happened to being the better man? Why are so many of you on this thread such idiots?
Will Flynn he put an adult end to a childish beginning...TO should’ve been 1st ballot, he was cheated and now they say ‘ok TO you can come now’...that’s ridiculous. He’s a hall of gamer that would rather celebrate elsewhere, unlike the other boot lickers.
I don't blame T.O. It's not like he's rejecting going in. He's shedding light on how broken the HOF selection process is if a top 3 WR of all-time isn't 1st or 2nd ballot selection. Ridiculous disrespect. Fix the ego/power tripping selection process!
He was a cancer in the locker room. The worst teammate I have ever seen. Ever. That’s why he had to wait. Everyone agrees he’s one of the most gifted of all time. But he acted like a damn idiot his entire career. So he’s just keepin it real. I wouldn’t expect any other reaction from him.
Terrell is not rejecting the members of the Hall of Fame. He is rejecting the writers that changed the rules to keep him out. Why should he have to humble himself before a group of men and women that have no ideal what you have to go through physically and mentally to play the game at that level.
Thinking X well that says a lot about you. He’s not going so I don’t think he cares if they acknowledge him or not. He’s spending the time with the ones he actually cares about. Cause he doesn’t have the personality that u or the voters like means absolutely nothing. The numbers say he’s a HOF and the only reason they didn’t vote him in the first two times was cause they didn’t like him and to send a message, well it works both ways. Why do people care about him not going if they don’t like him anyway? It’s obvious he could care less how u feel about him. You never played with him or against him
T.O. did all that bitching and whining about NOT being in the Hall of Fame and when you finally get accepted into the Hall of Fame you decline it?!!!!! WOW!!!!!
ROOTZ MAGAZINE so why was he campaigning to get in these last few years? He was on every talk show complaining about not getting in and then he finally gets elected he decides to not go. Super childish. And he wonders why he was labeled a locker room cancer. And he wonders why the 50 voters made him wait this long . "He's a living legend with or without the Hall of Fame....... " is a losers logic.

I went to T.O.’s personal HOF ceremony at UT Chattanooga. At the end he asked the entire audience to stand up and applauded us for being in his corner. Always did things his way. Goat
@Tony Romo - Lol, how quickly we forget. WE WERE this angry when he didn't get in on the first ballot. Where do you think all this comes from? Even his detractors were like, how did dude NOT get in?
@A. D. HUH??? if his stats aren't impressive than what is impressive??? 6 time pro bowl, 5 time all pro, 15,934 yards receiving and 153 TDs. Those stats are absolutely epic that span a decade and a half
TO is my favorite WR of All-Time. Born a Dallas fan. Him and Romo gave Dallas alot of hope. Im happy TO made it but he shouldve been a 1st Ballot Hall Of Famer!!
How come we always REFUSE to see the double standards. Tom Brady yells loud at his coaches: He's a competitor. TO does the exact same thing: We just can't have that, no class.
So true, T.O. was just the ultimate competitor and was aggressive to like Brady. I don’t even like Brady but give him respect for his aggressive nature to win even if it’s yelling at teammates or coaches. T.O. does it and he’s a player.???

This only hurts T.O., the hall of Fame doesn't need him. I guess it's worth it for him to "cut his nose to spite his face". Whatever floats his boat I guess. Hall of Famer Terrel Owens commands more money in appearances than former NFL star T.O.. He should be on T.V. but he's too much of a headcase for anyone to deal with.
Idiotic Tirades Its kinda a mute point now.. He's in.. The Hall hurt it's self though. Everyone and their mother knows that his dominace within his stats definitely made him a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. The Hall is all about your greatest within your stats. Not your personal opinions. They damaged their credibility by letting a bunch of people who've never played the game shun one of their own due to their personal biases..
The Hall didn't hurt itself...lol. there's a ton of great players with the numbers who didn't get in on the first ballot. TO is not the first with great numbers not to get in on the first go round. The Hall has always been voted by a bunch of people who never played the game.
Anthony WallIn my opinion it definitely hurt its credibility. Name another player who was top 3 in every major statistical category for their position that didn't get in first ballot...
I agree with Shannon...it's still T.O.'s choice to make. He may not want to be triggered being around folk he doesn't trust or like. Celebrate with those who love you.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. What he shouldn’t want is to have a change of heart in his later years, and regret not going to be amongst his peers and football brothers. Family will be around, but he needs to seize this moment and make it his own and not leave it to be dictated for him over things that aren’t relevant anymore.
MrShanester117 he's basically protesting the writers that kept him out for reasons that were non football-related. Basically meaning he wants the induction into the Hall just not to affiliate himself with those who know he should have been in on the first ballot
Sorry for the 2nd comment but after hearing Shannon tell that story I’m ready to be in the HOF of life. Dang that man just motivated me. I’m about to go pick up a book. I’m going to get the rest of my certifications n my masters. HOF of life here I come. #ThankYouShannon
After hearing Sharpe's story I have a newfound admiration for him. Thought he was a good/great football player, but never really paid a lot of attention to Broncos/Ravens (as a Cowboys fan), but I knew he was good. Nice story Mr. Sharpe.
on certain issues it is. Obviously on football getting a HOF players perspective is something first take doesnt have. When they get into basketball and other sports its very sub par. AMEN
Tom storm Right! First Take is better when talking about basketball and political/social issues, but undisputed is better when talking about football. I also think undisputed does better with bringing on guess to the show. But all-round First Take is better! Undisputed is funnier! Also first take travels to cities, undisputed don’t!
Good job T.O.. These clowns will say whatever because their feelings are hurt by it. Celebrate Your day how you want, with who you want and have them send your jacket in the mail. Post a video on your social media thanking people that deserve it and enjoy the rest of your life with a much deserved hof recognition.
That whole "What's that baby? It's where good football players go when they're done. I'd sure like to see that" was more emotion I expected from watching a YT vid.
TO is hurt and it’s a slap in the face that he has to watch Moss go in on the first ballot in the same class. The hall played TO. They kept him out to punish him then put Moss in who was a distraction on AND off the field.
BrandonDetroitfan Michaels I disagree. Megatron and Julio are more physically gifted than Moss. Owens was a more complete receiver who blocked and went over the middle. The point is you can’t hold Owens out for being a distraction but put Moss in on the first ballot when Moss had on and off the field issues and their numbers are basically identical.
@@MatsThyWit if anything, it only shows how petty they, being the hall, are. TO's talent and production, which is all that should really matter here, dictates that he's a first ballot hall of famer. There's no excuse for him not to have gotten in the moment he was eligible, outside of the media not liking him. He never broke the law, he never really did anything wrong that would justify his reputation in the grand scheme of things.
Oh Shannon man that grandma story made me cry it really did it reminded me of my family. She was proud of you im sure of it. Youre a better man than me.
Skip needs to stop lying to the people about Witten challenging T.O. to a fight. That never happened. T.O. already told Skip it never did to his face and he still lies about it.
Skip gets called out in a lot of lies and half truths. He puts himself into things that did happen but that he wasnt there for and has been called out for that as well by the likes of jimmy Johnson
I feel like why T.O was also mad was because they kept him out for all these off the field reasons but randy moss goes in on first ballot I know it’s petty but it’s just another slap in the face 🤦🏻♀️
So true !!!!!!!! They played him like a second string WR he was a game changer when he was on the field, the man was a monster!!!!!!!!!! How can you blame him for feeling some type of way!!!!!!!!!
Shannon you had the BEST speech I have ever heard. The part about your gram... I wont EVER forget. And about your brother. I remember saying Sterling is the Best WR in the NFL. And at that time in his prime I feel he was. You are an amazing guy for sure Mr. Sharpe.
You know what's hilarious? When Shannon started talking he mentioned about T.O. not knowing how others have spoken to HOF voters in support of him, that just blows my mind. If there is a player in the history of the NFL who shouldn't need that at all it's someone widely considered one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in the history of the NFL. That's like saying when Payton or Brady's HOF entry comes around they're gonna need some help convincing the voters. That would be insulting because their careers speak for themselves. Same with T.O.
Thinking X News flash.. If it was Peyton M. it would be ok right? Have you ever seen him or Tom Brady never get there way? Did you not here the stories about Peyton during his only superbowl run that he had to give up a lot of his control over the offense which he was crying... ehhhemm arguing over but ended up winning.. and it helps having a great Defense too. Maturity is only an issue if it causes a divide in the locker room by your own hand.. not ppl in the back round pulling strings like puppet masters... but obviously you are like plenty of the folks who believes in the narrative that the media has portrayed of T.O. Have a great day..
So, if TO has third best numbers all time, but never won a SuperBowl, was RENOWNED for being a locker room cancer, he should be a first ballot Hall of Famer?
devin mckinney nah it just shows that he's bitter and a crybaby. He was campaigning to get voted in and then he finally gets elected and he now chooses not to attend the ceremony? Come on man it's clear that he is trying to stick it to them for not making him a first-ballot inductee. Lynn Swann and John Stallworth waited combined 20 something years. And they were Super Bowl champions four times over.
devin mckinney if they really played him , he still wouldn’t be called up to the hall of fame
6 років тому+1
Sam707BFBC if they have to go through all of that bs that lets you know that they didn't want you in to begin with that hof doesn't validate TO his numbers speak for itself
Don't let this distract you from the fact Jerry Kramer is not only one of the greatest lineman ever, one of the packers ever, but he is one of the most important packers in their history. But it took about 40 years to put him in. Also Lester Hayes, Roger Craig and JIM MARSHALL!!! The hall has a history of disrespecting legends, like skip said with Cris Carter.
The difference between all of them they didn't cry and throw a fit when they were snubbed and when they did get in they went to the ceremony and gave speeches and thanks they weren't crybabies and acting like divas
you don't punish a player for his attitude, you have to give credit where credit is due, no matter if you don't like the player. that's like failing a great student just because the teacher doesnt like him
But Skip, you played a part in creating this vindictive attitude TO has while he was a player and off the field. You created this perception that TO was such a terrible distraction over what his talent, skills, and production did on the field. You were wrong Skip, and I don’t think you should have the privilege to commentate on TO on this issue
Marvin Davis Cowboys don’t suck. Let’s be factual. They’re coming off a mediocre season after having high expectations behind Dak and Zeke. They’re a young and improving team but they don’t suck. The Browns suck lol but still, TO was great at his position. He reminds me of the drama around Dwight Howard in the NBA but Dwight can still play. I think TO had such a bad stigma placed around him that he never got to finish out his career on his own terms. And yes, Skip played a huge part in it as well as the other media outlets feeding into it and causing issue for TO landing a spot on a roster.
You can’t be mad at T.O. You gotta respect a person that’s going to stand on their principles and not back down from it or do what everybody “says” he should do. He’s a top 3 wide receivers of all time and should’ve been a 1st ballot when they kept him out because of personal feelings and not because of football play that made it personal, that was like a slap to his face and all his hard work and dedication so in his mind it’s like “ard whatever y’all can have y’all validation, I’m solidified”
muadhnate that’s your opinion you view as being petty, I don’t. And you can’t say a person should be okay with being snubbed just because others went through it, be your own person and have your own values in life. Don’t just put up or deal with stuff because that’s the “norm” be different. But I get where you coming from
I'm glad someone FINALLY threw their invitation back in their faces; also glad it was T.O., someone they can't stand, to do it! The HOF is fixed anyway; there are great players who will not ever be in there, and there are guys that shouldn't be, that are. As a fan, I don't feel robbed, I say good! Normally I agree with Shannon, but not on this. He and Skip talk about validation, but T.O. isn't going to play the games and fall in line with the system, yet they can't deny his production.
Back in their faces?....are you serious?..are you? Do you really believe that they, (The Hall), will lose sleep over this? Do you actually 'think' they, collectively, will contemplate suicide by his absence? Guess what dude, the world will keep spinning the day before, and, hopefully, the day after, the ceremony. Sadly however, to all you good people that had 'yo popcorn ready', n' those "Sharpies', in yo' hand waiting on his autograph, my heart goes out to you. Its like this,.......Class was something TO never went to....not what he is in possession of. He is what he is,.....what ever that is. For future reference though, don't try that ole' " Not gonna fall in line with the system"....tired, washed out rhetoric, routine. The system ain't perfect, America ain't perfect,.....but its funny how Owens thinks he is. My people..My people, always got the answers, never to the right questions. Let me just throw this in, I'm looking at some of these other various comments, n' it ain't hard to see why Hillary lost, but hey, ya'll keep it up, 'cause....."Them empty wagons"...well, you know the rest. Peace, Out.Good night, n' God Bless us all!
Jerry Deveraux apparently, you don't like it when someone bucks the system either; and yes, the 'powers that be' are highly offended when someone doesn't take one of their dangling carrots. You are obviously offended, so it is working! As far as why that Hillary person you speak of lost, I care absolutely nothing for your amerikkkan politics!
Well, why was TO so upset each time he did not get in? Either it doesnt matter or it does. IF it does, then you don't play games and you accept it and it is over, you are the "bigger" guy. Anybody can pout. I can respect a person holding out on account of someone else, I cannot accept it as honorable to hold out on account of yourself! I have seen people like TO. And they hold their younger hurts and injustices far to close. And everything that anybody does to them is extreme and they act out. They never see any wrong that they may have contributed to a situation or own their part in anything. They do not accept a bad reaction from anyone for anything that is done to them. But they can do what they want and expect others to make light of their part.
Cher P I agree with all of that, and I am saying that T.O. does care. But, what I'm glad about is who he is as a person declining their invitation simply because it's anti-establishment, which I'm always a fan of.
There's your answer 7:50!!! Skip, who has been one of the MAJOR detractors of T.O. over the years with articles, and tasteless catch-phrases, SMUGLY told him "Go, embrace it, and appreciate WHAT YOU PULLED OFF" as if he committed some type of heist. That's probably the mindset of many persons who voted him into the HOF!!! He took back his control of the situation by not feeling validated by them... GOOD FOR HIM!!!
Man he said what you pulled off.. because he made the NFL and HALL OF FAME from a small town and small school and had to to fight for a spot on the team!.. don’t misquote that part smh
I feel T.O. he don't need validation from any of u nerds.. this guy lived on the same block with a father that never acknowledged him. he don't need the hall of fame. and we're always gonna remember he took a stand. me personally I would've just cursed everyone out in my speech. but I can see TOs thought process.
Well, you're just a childish as T.O., he will never get the respect he so desires because of these types of selfish decisions. You obviously did not listen to anything Shannon stated
It shows your Character as a person and your growth as Man to be able to rise in the eyes of Men that even the smallest things can change the course of the Future, only a once in a lifetime deal.....
christopher porter TO doesn't need the respect of people's opinions. The Hall of Fame needs TO to validate it, not the other way around. They cut William Wallace to pieces hoping it would intimidate, instead it symbolized a stand. That same thing is happening here with TO. This could be the start of many declined HOF invitations and the HOF knows they messed up.
Dddd Ffff If what you said were true TO wouldn't have been chirping the last few years about not getting in. TO is someone who ALWAYS needs validation. His childish decision to not go is evidence of that. He's pouting because he wasn't a first ballot. Don't be so niave kid.

Nah I’m glad he sat out. How could you have any pride in the process after things played out that way? How could you be excited? Skip said it best “Just go up and give in to it.” 7:57 Give in, as in fake it, ignore it. When you are the best and you still have to argue it later to fools who either don’t know or are playing some game, forget em man.
I applaud T.O...... I said after he was snubbed, when you get selected..... don't go......and if you never get selected, a HOFer knows within himself.....but to show up is like submission
BlackSuave44 Who validates you? It was clear the voters whoever they were, were validating T.O. and didn't realize they were disrespecting themselves (if not the HoF and the process) by not voting him in within the 1st 2 tries.. but attempt to make it up by letting Randy Moss go in his 1st try when neither of them won SuperBowls but Jerry Rice? 2nd Ballot was and had always been sufficient especially due to their diva antics if that is such a thing.
I don’t blame T.O at all ya he might’ve wanted to be in it after year one but after year 2 it’s f all y’all he don’t need validation from anyone but his numbers; u think his grandma or mom thinks less of him because of this Shannon tripping; this is the ultimate man thing to do, so he supposed to be happy and tap dance now because some writers now says he’s worthy lmao good for TO and this makes me more proud of him being a Philadelphia fan all my life it’s not like he’s not going to be in it but just the ceremony this is like the Grammys or Oscars it’s always politics behind it look at how many great artists never got one because artists don’t vote on it and neither do the players so f the hof
I agree. HOF is a joke. They didn't put Stabler in until he passed away. Like his death suddenly triggered how good he was in their minds and THEN they put him in. smh It lost credibility after that. If you're not going to put him in when he's alive then why do it after he's dead?
Skip bayless shouldn't have anything to say when he's the one who help perpetrate the negative stereotypes of t.o now y'all saying boy just be happy you got in..nope shannon you wrong my brother you are so wrong t.o should have definitely been in there first ballet .. And he has the right to say f them.. And I'm with him f them and skip.. Shannon would you rather him accepted it and then went in on the n.f.l. skip and all the other people who kept him out.. No matter what t.o does you guys aren't happy. Chris carter ain't t.o although he's worthy of h.o.f .. Who cares if you don't like his attitude .. He is in the top three of wr of all time..
So wait Shannon, your saying that Terrell Owens should attend the Hall of Fame induction all because you and some other people fought to get him in the Hall of the Fame. It has nothing to do with you, Terrell Owens earned first ballot through his hard work, but he was personally disrespected.
Thinking X And that is why he doesn't give two sh!ts about it, once you realize who is voting you in and its not mainly based off of players, coaches, and NFL enthusiasts with no prejudice (of ones background).. the system would always be tainted, forever trying to purify itself but cannot do so..
No he's saying because everyone has a team and a support system that helps them become successful. He's saying he should attend for them. Not for the players how did you even come to that conclusion.
Gabriel Hall nah it just shows that he's bitter and a crybaby. He was campaigning to get voted in and then he finally gets elected and he now chooses not to attend the ceremony? Come on man it's clear that he is trying to stick it to them for not making him a first-ballot inductee
Idk man....I'm kinda split. Part of me understands the bitterness from basically being disrespected by voters. Other part says, this was YOUR profession, and you being recognized as being one of the best ever at your job!! That's special. Shannon kinda swayed me towards the latter..I respect his decision either way.
When Shannon Started to talk about his grandmother and how he was unsure if she would be able to be there at his HOF induction you could see and hear the emotion in his eyes and voice
I think he's protesting the process in which they decide when you get in, because if you're a Hall of Famer then you shouldn't have to wait 10 and 20 years like some of them had to
Watching this on July 2nd 2019 at the end of the 6th hour pm and just wanna say that this is one of the deepest things I ever heard him say... He's a real one!
Should this decision leave a stain on Terrell Owens' legacy?
Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED it will they will say yep you proved us right, this is why we didn’t let you in.
Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED Yes it will , T.O wasn't a great leader , ALSO MESSED UP LOCKER ROOMS WITH SELFISH ATTITUDE ,reminds me of O.D.B IN A WAY
Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED DAMN THAT'S A MEAN SUIT #SHARPE 🔪
I was on T.O side but Shannon talking about his granny put it into perspective. It's still his decision but dang yea he could of went and let em have it but then they still woulda been like see he's petty like we said. So it's a lose lose
Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED no it leaves a stain on the hall for personal feelings let him not be a hall of fame
Listening to Shannon speak about his past is very heart warming.
you should watch is Hall of Fame Induction speech then.. great, emotional speech!
Dontez Javaun he always has a heart warming story about our Granny
Yes Shannon I love now that he isn't taunting my chiefs and I always love the grandfather and grandmother stories of good sense my opinion of Mr. Shannon totally changed.
I cried watching his club shay shay with his brother
Shannon made a key statement. “The induction into the most prestigious club in the sport is determined by men and women that never played the game. “

No one should have to "go to bat for him" !!

Hall of famer not matter if first or second ballot
Quan Bailey Yes, he’s a Hall of Famer nonetheless, but there are further accolades attached to going on the first or second go round. He beyond a shadow of a doubt has earned that nod...
Calvin with that said.. what did Randy Moss do that set him apart from T.O.?
He wasn’t a public disruption and destroyer to every team he was on
Eventually they made it right. Randy Moss and TO are synonymous. You cant have one in the Hall of Fame without the other. The TWO BEST receivers in the 2000s got in together.
Seems like T.O can't win in the media but he's always true to himself which I appreciate
Facts
Me, I don't know why his personality has to do with his HOF.
Good point. People are diverse in personality. The HOF is NOT about individual charisma or popularity. It's about service.

Man I'm straight dying 😭😭😭😭😭
Dramatic _Donald Exactly. The fact she died 1 month before his HOF induction was the part that got me. She didn’t get to see him on stage smh. Life is unfair man.
Fact is T.O is, was and always be a 1st ballot hall of famer. Just because he had a attitude, they didn't vote him in and that is a damn shame.
Man get out your feeling and go for it you are in now embrace it.
Jamia Dixon agree. You get voted in for your talent. You dont get voted in or out for your attitude or behavior. This again, is why Pete Rose should be in the hall.
Your behavior can hold you back in life no matter your accomplishments, be humble have good character along with your talent,being a obnoxious self centered baby is not respected!,see what roseanne going thru
facts. his talent dictated that he was in. so whether he attends or not is irrelevant. this isnt high school. i think he wanted it so bad and by time he got in he was bitter. because they purposely held him up to put him in his place and put that asterisk by it.
ur right.....the point is the reason behind it......and it has nothing to do this numbers.
People forget Art Monk led every receiving category there was when he retired. Long before Jerry Rice broke his records. That man waited 10+ years to get in. Now that was wrong
Art Monk was a GREAT WR. Excellent point.
Things like this happen in baseball too and it sucks. Roberto Alomar was denied first ballot induction because of his umpire spit incident even though he apologized and years later had a good relation with the umpire. T.O. was the most complete wide receiver to play the game in my opinion and I was very happy he did not go to Canton as a protest to the clowns that vote on these inductions. These players sacrifice a lot of their lives to get to that level and it's shameful that inept people pass judgement on something that costs blood, sweat and tears to these men.
I’m sorry but you can’t compare T.O. with Monk in my opinion. I think that T.O. is a top 15 player of all time. Watching this guy play the game along with the stats are undeniable. Of course writers and voters had something against this cat and the NFL allowed people who didn’t play the game get away with him.
@Ladh 70 Pete lied for 14 years had he just said I did it I'm sorry he would've been in but no he decided to knowingly lie to everyone as if we were all fn idiots
@@cabalogia Thank you. People are shills who think players should just be “grateful” when they earned every thing that has been given to them. To deny someone what they rightfully earned because of politics is shameful and all the fans enable it.
Skip be exhaling more than a little bit
Samuel LeGrand word. Thought he had a pipping bowl of grits 😤💨
Gimme ThaDub 😂😂😂
He might be unwell
Samuel LeGrand 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sound like joy giving in a hand job
They said f%#k T.O. and T.O. said f%#k you, too. Perfect ending!!
TopTierPioneer WOW👏👏Funny your so right
Childish immature ending. It's pathetic how so many comments are saying thumbs up too childish behavior. Whatever happened to being the better man? Why are so many of you on this thread such idiots?
Will Flynn he put an adult end to a childish beginning...TO should’ve been 1st ballot, he was cheated and now they say ‘ok TO you can come now’...that’s ridiculous. He’s a hall of gamer that would rather celebrate elsewhere, unlike the other boot lickers.
TopTierPioneer he's not the first so he should stop whinning
Lmao damn.
Damn bro. Shannon brought it straight from the heart. I don't even watch football and you could feel how special of a thing it is.
Shannon sharp suit game is killer💪
randy pimentel But here’s the thang!

Man I remember Shannon's HOF speech I was brought to tears when he talked about his grandmother and brother.
Can you imagine Shannon at the age of 70-80 how wise will he be by then....I know he will never forget his Granny, just like I’ll never forget mine
I need to treat mine better while she’s here, thanks for reminding me man, she does so much for me more than words can express.
I have my beats on and all I can hear is skip breathing like wtf....😂😂😂
IRONLUNGZ akaKUSH man this sounds crazy in my headphones lmaooo
Brooo I was thinking the same thing !!!
I got 99¢ headphones and I still hear him SMH
Chip Grays 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
I don't blame T.O. It's not like he's rejecting going in. He's shedding light on how broken the HOF selection process is if a top 3 WR of all-time isn't 1st or 2nd ballot selection. Ridiculous disrespect. Fix the ego/power tripping selection process!
Jay Zee and what he is doing (TO) is ego tripping as well
He was a cancer in the locker room. The worst teammate I have ever seen. Ever. That’s why he had to wait. Everyone agrees he’s one of the most gifted of all time. But he acted like a damn idiot his entire career. So he’s just keepin it real. I wouldn’t expect any other reaction from him.
Jerry rice and Randy Moss have to be the other 2 receivers right?
he was devicive cry baby his wgole career, literally only cared about himself. He' s achild and should be treated like one
jason m. So why was randy inducted on his first try
This segment alone is why I love Shannon. Such a real person I can relate to. I enjoy listening to him speak and his stories
There is no way people who have never played the game professionally (writers) should select who the greats are... That makes absolutely no sense!!!!
totally agree... it should be his PEERS not writers
dhannah15 I have been saying this for years. The cats in the hall should have the power to vote
TRUE!!! Nuff said!
Agree. Especially when there are ones with clear as day favorites. I look forward to Nick Wright getting LeBron into the NFL Hall of Fame.
I am tired of these reporter's who couldn't make their high school jv team are passing judgement on PROFESSIONAL level athletes
Sharps words be hitting my SOUL...
Who is snorting coke in the background?? Skiuuup...cut it out😂
Lol
I honestly believe hes doing coke. Hes always rubbing his nose on just about every show.
Lmao
He always taking a deep breath and doing a loud open mouthed exhale too
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks for the laugh 😆 Shannon nearly had me in tears 😢 I needed that laugh 😆
Am I the only one that is irrated by Skip's sighing noices?
Denzel nope... it irked me, too
BIG FACTS!!!
Like Wtf Is Wrong With Him
Denzel Nah, it’s kind of funny. Joy annoys me way more.
Ikr. Sounds like he's getting sucked off by Sean Lee
Terrell is not rejecting the members of the Hall of Fame. He is rejecting the writers that changed the rules to keep him out. Why should he have to humble himself before a group of men and women that have no ideal what you have to go through physically and mentally to play the game at that level.
Victor Hagan I agree with you.
Yup...
Then he should tell them, no thank you to the place in the Hall. And then it makes sense not to go.
Thinking X well he’s a HOF now and you’re exactly what?
Thinking X well that says a lot about you. He’s not going so I don’t think he cares if they acknowledge him or not. He’s spending the time with the ones he actually cares about. Cause he doesn’t have the personality that u or the voters like means absolutely nothing. The numbers say he’s a HOF and the only reason they didn’t vote him in the first two times was cause they didn’t like him and to send a message, well it works both ways. Why do people care about him not going if they don’t like him anyway? It’s obvious he could care less how u feel about him. You never played with him or against him
Shannon Sharpe is a real man. A great example of who to aspire to be like.
Tom Brady snd politics aside.. yes!
T.O. did all that bitching and whining about NOT being in the Hall of Fame and when you finally get accepted into the Hall of Fame you decline it?!!!!! WOW!!!!!
Bless Shannon Sharpe. That story tugs on my heart about his grandmother. I’m sure she’s proud of you.
My Grandmother the same thing Shannon. God Bless U
Shannon's HOF speech was so moving. One of the greatest I have heard. Truly inspiring.
The part about his brother... Almost made me cry
He's a living legend WITH OR WITHOUT the HoF!!!!
The Hall doesn't validate great players.... great players validate the hall!!!!
ROOTZ MAGAZINE so why was he campaigning to get in these last few years? He was on every talk show complaining about not getting in and then he finally gets elected he decides to not go. Super childish. And he wonders why he was labeled a locker room cancer. And he wonders why the 50 voters made him wait this long . "He's a living legend with or without the Hall of Fame....... " is a losers logic.
Living fkg legend hands down
he wasn't campaigning to get in...he spoke out about not getting in the first time...then he backed off

I went to T.O.’s personal HOF ceremony at UT Chattanooga. At the end he asked the entire audience to stand up and applauded us for being in his corner. Always did things his way. Goat
People should of been this angry when T.O wasnt first ballot...
Tony Romo ,right?
@Tony Romo - Lol, how quickly we forget. WE WERE this angry when he didn't get in on the first ballot. Where do you think all this comes from? Even his detractors were like, how did dude NOT get in?
Exactly
@A. D. HUH??? if his stats aren't impressive than what is impressive??? 6 time pro bowl, 5 time all pro, 15,934 yards receiving and 153 TDs. Those stats are absolutely epic that span a decade and a half
False.
Congrats Shannon Sharpe. I'm sure you made your granny proud.
TO is my favorite WR of All-Time. Born a Dallas fan. Him and Romo gave Dallas alot of hope. Im happy TO made it but he shouldve been a 1st Ballot Hall Of Famer!!
How come we always REFUSE to see the double standards. Tom Brady yells loud at his coaches: He's a competitor. TO does the exact same thing: We just can't have that, no class.
TO spit in other people’s faces. So is he not trash cause he spat in a grown man face
alpha omega no its because he's BLACK! ever thought about that? Unfuckingbelievable!
Ace Dinero LOL!
John Holman
It’s apples and oranges
So true, T.O. was just the ultimate competitor and was aggressive to like Brady. I don’t even like Brady but give him respect for his aggressive nature to win even if it’s yelling at teammates or coaches. T.O. does it and he’s a player.???
Skip needs to get his lungs checked out
Andre Wingate he’s gotta be a serial smoker

Classic #81 TO
This only hurts T.O., the hall of Fame doesn't need him. I guess it's worth it for him to "cut his nose to spite his face". Whatever floats his boat I guess. Hall of Famer Terrel Owens commands more money in appearances than former NFL star T.O.. He should be on T.V. but he's too much of a headcase for anyone to deal with.
Idiotic Tirades Its kinda a mute point now.. He's in.. The Hall hurt it's self though. Everyone and their mother knows that his dominace within his stats definitely made him a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. The Hall is all about your greatest within your stats. Not your personal opinions. They damaged their credibility by letting a bunch of people who've never played the game shun one of their own due to their personal biases..
The Hall didn't hurt itself...lol. there's a ton of great players with the numbers who didn't get in on the first ballot. TO is not the first with great numbers not to get in on the first go round. The Hall has always been voted by a bunch of people who never played the game.
Anthony WallIn my opinion it definitely hurt its credibility. Name another player who was top 3 in every major statistical category for their position that didn't get in first ballot...
I agree with Shannon...it's still T.O.'s choice to make. He may not want to be triggered being around folk he doesn't trust or like. Celebrate with those who love you.
J P but Sharp is wrong. Because they walked in two different paths.
Yup I know for me nothing is more important than be around those who love you which is family. Friends come and go but your family is always there
If he doesn’t like the people at the hall of fame what does he have to celebrate then
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. What he shouldn’t want is to have a change of heart in his later years, and regret not going to be amongst his peers and football brothers. Family will be around, but he needs to seize this moment and make it his own and not leave it to be dictated for him over things that aren’t relevant anymore.
J P yeah like a surprise bday party filled with ya childhood bullies
Still the greatest love story in the nfl sha shay and granny❤️❤️💯✊🏼
I'm with TO on this one.
He got blackballed and he is well within his right to protest the HOF that kept him out
kkroyu
That doesn’t make sense to protest the Hall that kept you out. DURING the interview of them putting you IN
MrShanester117 he's basically protesting the writers that kept him out for reasons that were non football-related. Basically meaning he wants the induction into the Hall just not to affiliate himself with those who know he should have been in on the first ballot
Indeed.. annd Enough said..
Sorry for the 2nd comment but after hearing Shannon tell that story I’m ready to be in the HOF of life. Dang that man just motivated me. I’m about to go pick up a book. I’m going to get the rest of my certifications n my masters. HOF of life here I come.
#ThankYouShannon
I know it's two years later, but keep up the good work.
After hearing Sharpe's story I have a newfound admiration for him. Thought he was a good/great football player, but never really paid a lot of attention to Broncos/Ravens (as a Cowboys fan), but I knew he was good. Nice story Mr. Sharpe.
If teams can decline White House invitation so should TO
T.O is a fool
That’s due to political reasons, TO is just hardheaded. This is exactly why skip thinks he shouldn’t be a HOF
vambo13257 and the team's who decline the White House visit are fools. It works both ways.
Big John hall of fame is about production, not about being hard headed or not
vambo13257 y?
This show is so much better than first take AMEN
Facts
Skip Bayless fake account
on certain issues it is. Obviously on football getting a HOF players perspective is something first take doesnt have. When they get into basketball and other sports its very sub par. AMEN
Thanks to Shannon yeah...Skip gets really annoying at times
Tom storm
Right! First Take is better when talking about basketball and political/social issues, but undisputed is better when talking about football. I also think undisputed does better with bringing on guess to the show. But all-round First Take is better! Undisputed is funnier! Also first take travels to cities, undisputed don’t!
Skip stay huffing and puffing while someone’s taking 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Breath flying all over during his exhales
Lmaooo that’s all I’m hearing!! Like someone lower his mic rofl
It’s so annoying
Sounds like he's doing something under the table lol
@Shankly Paisly umm no
Good job T.O.. These clowns will say whatever because their feelings are hurt by it. Celebrate Your day how you want, with who you want and have them send your jacket in the mail. Post a video on your social media thanking people that deserve it and enjoy the rest of your life with a much deserved hof recognition.
Damn. Seeing shannon tear up is tough to watch
Colden Davis damm right bro. We always seem him cracking jokes and being a serious guy, seeing him like that is hard.
Got to me too.
Go look up his Hall induction speech. If I remember right, he got teary over it that night.
Great story Shannon, not going to lie it put tears into my eyes. Damn it he made me like him for a second.
That whole "What's that baby? It's where good football players go when they're done. I'd sure like to see that" was more emotion I expected from watching a YT vid.
Lol...for a minute???
If u don’t like Unk shay it’s something wrong with you
To everybody still sleeping in 2018: FORGET the Establishment! You have the right to TURN YOUR BACK on all of them!
TO is hurt and it’s a slap in the face that he has to watch Moss go in on the first ballot in the same class. The hall played TO. They kept him out to punish him then put Moss in who was a distraction on AND off the field.
The Isolated Male Moss> Owens As a Lions fan Moss was the greatest talent WR I’ve ever seen. Randy Moss was revolutionary
BrandonDetroitfan Michaels
I disagree. Megatron and Julio are more physically gifted than Moss. Owens was a more complete receiver who blocked and went over the middle. The point is you can’t hold Owens out for being a distraction but put Moss in on the first ballot when Moss had on and off the field issues and their numbers are basically identical.
NIKO SAMUELS if TO isn't 1st ballot, then Moss most definitely isnt
I said the same thing that’s the only reason he ain’t go
The Isolated Male
You beyond stupid Randy Moss faster and better than both Calvin Johnson and Juilo Jones
And I'm related to Juilo Jones
Joy soooooo fine!!!!

All Day...
And in doing so he hurt no one but himself.
@@MatsThyWit if anything, it only shows how petty they, being the hall, are. TO's talent and production, which is all that should really matter here, dictates that he's a first ballot hall of famer. There's no excuse for him not to have gotten in the moment he was eligible, outside of the media not liking him. He never broke the law, he never really did anything wrong that would justify his reputation in the grand scheme of things.
Is it me or did anyone else notice skip with the low top 11’s (concords)? He was breathing so hard because he just got done breaking them jays in.
Jonathan Sims I noticed them too😂
Oh Shannon man that grandma story made me cry it really did it reminded me of my family.
She was proud of you im sure of it.
Youre a better man than me.
Shannon's story about his grandmother was strate in the feels... damn ...
Jealius when did he start talking about his grandmother?
devin mckinney 4:40
You can tell she helped raised him right. Would have been a lovely women to have met.
Skip needs to stop lying to the people about Witten challenging T.O. to a fight. That never happened. T.O. already told Skip it never did to his face and he still lies about it.
Skip gets called out in a lot of lies and half truths. He puts himself into things that did happen but that he wasnt there for and has been called out for that as well by the likes of jimmy Johnson
this is why I have so much respect for Shannon Sharpe
I feel like why T.O was also mad was because they kept him out for all these off the field reasons but randy moss goes in on first ballot I know it’s petty but it’s just another slap in the face 🤦🏻♀️
Moss was always better than TO, that's why...
sora4440 negative
sora4440 thats a positive
So true !!!!!!!! They played him like a second string WR he was a game changer when he was on the field, the man was a monster!!!!!!!!!! How can you blame him for feeling some type of way!!!!!!!!!
Slightly Biased Kobe Bryant Fan
Randy Moss > Terrell Owens
🐐Jordan > LeBron > Kobe
Let TO be his own man. Skip was tearing him down as well. Never touched a football in his life...smh
He loosing his breath just talking lol
deharleyva Skip way overboard. There's a difference between constructive criticism and character assassination

Zuluboy Gintsa Tell it bro 💯💪🏿💪🏿
Zuluboy Gintsa exactly
Shannon you had the BEST speech I have ever heard. The part about your gram... I wont EVER forget. And about your brother. I remember saying Sterling is the Best WR in the NFL. And at that time in his prime I feel he was. You are an amazing guy for sure Mr. Sharpe.
I listened to SHANNON SHARPE HOF speech it was fantastic
You know what's hilarious? When Shannon started talking he mentioned about T.O. not knowing how others have spoken to HOF voters in support of him, that just blows my mind. If there is a player in the history of the NFL who shouldn't need that at all it's someone widely considered one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in the history of the NFL. That's like saying when Payton or Brady's HOF entry comes around they're gonna need some help convincing the voters. That would be insulting because their careers speak for themselves. Same with T.O.
Thinking X
News flash.. If it was Peyton M. it would be ok right? Have you ever seen him or Tom Brady never get there way? Did you not here the stories about Peyton during his only superbowl run that he had to give up a lot of his control over the offense which he was crying... ehhhemm arguing over but ended up winning.. and it helps having a great Defense too.
Maturity is only an issue if it causes a divide in the locker room by your own hand.. not ppl in the back round pulling strings like puppet masters... but obviously you are like plenty of the folks who believes in the narrative that the media has portrayed of T.O. Have a great day..
So, if TO has third best numbers all time, but never won a SuperBowl, was RENOWNED for being a locker room cancer, he should be a first ballot Hall of Famer?
@@datona13 duh.
@@tridentdiving4040 yes.... Clearly. How many first ballad wide receivers are there. And how many of them are better than to?
Sometimes you gotta put the hen down and just listen to the greatness of Shannon sharpe 💯 this man is greatness personified that story had😢
Thought SS was gonna cry. Love this dude. He is the realest dude on tv
Love Shannon, dude talk and I just wanna listen
Respect bossman true. Glad skip gave him a shot at this show and now it’s paying me off dividends 👍🔥
It's his decision tho. Plus they played him.
Did you listen to Shannon?
devin mckinney nah it just shows that he's bitter and a crybaby. He was campaigning to get voted in and then he finally gets elected and he now chooses not to attend the ceremony? Come on man it's clear that he is trying to stick it to them for not making him a first-ballot inductee. Lynn Swann and John Stallworth waited combined 20 something years. And they were Super Bowl champions four times over.
devin mckinney Now he is playing himself-just a child at his advanced age
devin mckinney if they really played him , he still wouldn’t be called up to the hall of fame
Sam707BFBC if they have to go through all of that bs that lets you know that they didn't want you in to begin with that hof doesn't validate TO his numbers speak for itself
The passion Shannon has for each topic gets me coming back for more! He is great skip is smart and quick with stats but lacks passion for the game.
Why skip keep moaning???
Ace Dollaz 😂😂😂
Shannon’s preaching and skip sounds like he’s in church 😂
Joy’s pullin his wrinkly willy
He getting sum slop
David Vega not some sloppy toppy
Don't let this distract you from the fact Jerry Kramer is not only one of the greatest lineman ever, one of the packers ever, but he is one of the most important packers in their history. But it took about 40 years to put him in. Also Lester Hayes, Roger Craig and JIM MARSHALL!!!
The hall has a history of disrespecting legends, like skip said with Cris Carter.
James Burgess T.O is way better than all those guys you just named
The difference between all of them they didn't cry and throw a fit when they were snubbed and when they did get in they went to the ceremony and gave speeches and thanks they weren't crybabies and acting like divas
Josh Nyamburi that's not the point
you don't punish a player for his attitude, you have to give credit where credit is due, no matter if you don't like the player. that's like failing a great student just because the teacher doesnt like him
Don't let this distract you from the fact that Al Bundy scored 7 touchdowns in his high school championship game.
While Shannon is speaking in the beginning about T.O. , why is Skip breathing out loud like he got Vicks Vapor rubbed on his chest.
Lol...I kept hearing it too...weird
😂😂
He was near crying. Holding back tears. Skip cries pretty easily actually
..........
@@Nakikitsune Skip is a pretty emotional dude.
But Skip, you played a part in creating this vindictive attitude TO has while he was a player and off the field. You created this perception that TO was such a terrible distraction over what his talent, skills, and production did on the field. You were wrong Skip, and I don’t think you should have the privilege to commentate on TO on this issue
Michael C funny thing is the cowboys still suck so is that TO fault?
Marvin Davis Cowboys don’t suck. Let’s be factual. They’re coming off a mediocre season after having high expectations behind Dak and Zeke. They’re a young and improving team but they don’t suck. The Browns suck lol but still, TO was great at his position. He reminds me of the drama around Dwight Howard in the NBA but Dwight can still play. I think TO had such a bad stigma placed around him that he never got to finish out his career on his own terms. And yes, Skip played a huge part in it as well as the other media outlets feeding into it and causing issue for TO landing a spot on a roster.
@@michaelc5019 the cowboys are a top 8 team but they suck? You don't make sense, they're better than 75% of the other teams

You can’t be mad at T.O. You gotta respect a person that’s going to stand on their principles and not back down from it or do what everybody “says” he should do. He’s a top 3 wide receivers of all time and should’ve been a 1st ballot when they kept him out because of personal feelings and not because of football play that made it personal, that was like a slap to his face and all his hard work and dedication so in his mind it’s like “ard whatever y’all can have y’all validation, I’m solidified”
muadhnate that’s your opinion you view as being petty, I don’t. And you can’t say a person should be okay with being snubbed just because others went through it, be your own person and have your own values in life. Don’t just put up or deal with stuff because that’s the “norm” be different. But I get where you coming from
Sharpe is so eloquent.
I'm glad someone FINALLY threw their invitation back in their faces; also glad it was T.O., someone they can't stand, to do it! The HOF is fixed anyway; there are great players who will not ever be in there, and there are guys that shouldn't be, that are. As a fan, I don't feel robbed, I say good! Normally I agree with Shannon, but not on this. He and Skip talk about validation, but T.O. isn't going to play the games and fall in line with the system, yet they can't deny his production.
Au H2O - 👍👏👏👏
Back in their faces?....are you serious?..are you? Do you really believe that they, (The Hall), will lose sleep over this? Do you actually 'think' they, collectively, will contemplate suicide by his absence? Guess what dude, the world will keep spinning the day before, and, hopefully, the day after, the ceremony. Sadly however, to all you good people that had 'yo popcorn ready', n' those "Sharpies', in yo' hand waiting on his autograph, my heart goes out to you. Its like this,.......Class was something TO never went to....not what he is in possession of. He is what he is,.....what ever that is. For future reference though, don't try that ole' " Not gonna fall in line with the system"....tired, washed out rhetoric, routine. The system ain't perfect, America ain't perfect,.....but its funny how Owens thinks he is. My people..My people, always got the answers, never to the right questions. Let me just throw this in, I'm looking at some of these other various comments, n' it ain't hard to see why Hillary lost, but hey, ya'll keep it up, 'cause....."Them empty wagons"...well, you know the rest. Peace, Out.Good night, n' God Bless us all!
Jerry Deveraux apparently, you don't like it when someone bucks the system either; and yes, the 'powers that be' are highly offended when someone doesn't take one of their dangling carrots. You are obviously offended, so it is working! As far as why that Hillary person you speak of lost, I care absolutely nothing for your amerikkkan politics!
Well, why was TO so upset each time he did not get in? Either it doesnt matter or it does. IF it does, then you don't play games and you accept it and it is over, you are the "bigger" guy. Anybody can pout. I can respect a person holding out on account of someone else, I cannot accept it as honorable to hold out on account of yourself! I have seen people like TO. And they hold their younger hurts and injustices far to close. And everything that anybody does to them is extreme and they act out. They never see any wrong that they may have contributed to a situation or own their part in anything. They do not accept a bad reaction from anyone for anything that is done to them. But they can do what they want and expect others to make light of their part.
Cher P I agree with all of that, and I am saying that T.O. does care. But, what I'm glad about is who he is as a person declining their invitation simply because it's anti-establishment, which I'm always a fan of.
There's your answer 7:50!!! Skip, who has been one of the MAJOR detractors of T.O. over the years with articles, and tasteless catch-phrases, SMUGLY told him "Go, embrace it, and appreciate WHAT YOU PULLED OFF" as if he committed some type of heist. That's probably the mindset of many persons who voted him into the HOF!!! He took back his control of the situation by not feeling validated by them... GOOD FOR HIM!!!
wow, I didn't catch that word play...thx! #truth
Man he said what you pulled off.. because he made the NFL and HALL OF FAME from a small town and small school and had to to fight for a spot on the team!.. don’t misquote that part smh
Let's get this straight you're disappointed in a Grown Man making a Grown Man decision. A real man makes decisions for himself.
I feel T.O. he don't need validation from any of u nerds.. this guy lived on the same block with a father that never acknowledged him. he don't need the hall of fame. and we're always gonna remember he took a stand. me personally I would've just cursed everyone out in my speech. but I can see TOs thought process.
I thought he was gonna get them in the speech!
Well, you're just a childish as T.O., he will never get the respect he so desires because of these types of selfish decisions. You obviously did not listen to anything Shannon stated
It shows your Character as a person and your growth as Man to be able to rise in the eyes of Men that even the smallest things can change the course of the Future, only a once in a lifetime deal.....
christopher porter TO doesn't need the respect of people's opinions. The Hall of Fame needs TO to validate it, not the other way around. They cut William Wallace to pieces hoping it would intimidate, instead it symbolized a stand. That same thing is happening here with TO. This could be the start of many declined HOF invitations and the HOF knows they messed up.
Dddd Ffff If what you said were true TO wouldn't have been chirping the last few years about not getting in. TO is someone who ALWAYS needs validation. His childish decision to not go is evidence of that. He's pouting because he wasn't a first ballot. Don't be so niave kid.
I hear their points but I'm not mad at Owens. He earned the right to be there and they were wrong to hold his character against him.
Shannon's story got me in the feels
Skip: “ *sigh* “
Controversial Radio Darth Vader
1:18 The beginning
1:28 The "stop stealing my lines shannon!" one
1:38 the "im gonna try & make that sound one every 10 sec" one
1:56 the 'I think I might actually be sick" one
2:03 The "Im gonna make that one lasttttttt" one
2:09 The "Please shut up Shannon, u killing me. I miss those Cowboys" one
2:54 The weakest one
3:20 The funniest one
4:31 He's getting tired of making this noise
6:37 "Ok...my turn now"
7:13 the most honest one
8:46 Skip actually needs this one to breath
11:06 The "I'm thirsty one"
Chef Timour Thank you kind sir
Wow..... Respect for Shannon after watching this.
Brian W
I had respect before but yeah I get your point
You should see his Hall of Fame speech then...
kromon928 the best one I’ve ever seen
Nah I’m glad he sat out. How could you have any pride in the process after things played out that way? How could you be excited? Skip said it best “Just go up and give in to it.” 7:57 Give in, as in fake it, ignore it. When you are the best and you still have to argue it later to fools who either don’t know or are playing some game, forget em man.
Lmaooo I don’t think I’ve ever heard Skip sigh “huuuuuhhhh” more times then this video
I applaud T.O...... I said after he was snubbed, when you get selected..... don't go......and if you never get selected, a HOFer knows within himself.....but to show up is like submission
@Robert Sayles - Stupid perspective. Sorry, dude. I'm sure you're a good person, but it's a dumb way to look at things.

Who validates you?
It was clear the voters whoever they were, were validating T.O. and didn't realize they were disrespecting themselves (if not the HoF and the process) by not voting him in within the 1st 2 tries.. but attempt to make it up by letting Randy Moss go in his 1st try when neither of them won SuperBowls but Jerry Rice? 2nd Ballot was and had always been sufficient especially due to their diva antics if that is such a thing.
@@blackSUAAAVE no it’s not f those writers
He didnt have to speak on a stage that he complained and argued with skip about all them years his highlights speak enough to validate him
I don’t blame T.O at all ya he might’ve wanted to be in it after year one but after year 2 it’s f all y’all he don’t need validation from anyone but his numbers; u think his grandma or mom thinks less of him because of this Shannon tripping; this is the ultimate man thing to do, so he supposed to be happy and tap dance now because some writers now says he’s worthy lmao good for TO and this makes me more proud of him being a Philadelphia fan all my life it’s not like he’s not going to be in it but just the ceremony this is like the Grammys or Oscars it’s always politics behind it look at how many great artists never got one because artists don’t vote on it and neither do the players so f the hof
I agree. HOF is a joke. They didn't put Stabler in until he passed away. Like his death suddenly triggered how good he was in their minds and THEN they put him in. smh It lost credibility after that. If you're not going to put him in when he's alive then why do it after he's dead?
Osaji Obi agree
1ightskin 1eo if he doesn’t need validation then why was he so upset ab not getting in ?
Skip bayless shouldn't have anything to say when he's the one who help perpetrate the negative stereotypes of t.o now y'all saying boy just be happy you got in..nope shannon you wrong my brother you are so wrong t.o should have definitely been in there first ballet .. And he has the right to say f them.. And I'm with him f them and skip.. Shannon would you rather him accepted it and then went in on the n.f.l. skip and all the other people who kept him out.. No matter what t.o does you guys aren't happy. Chris carter ain't t.o although he's worthy of h.o.f .. Who cares if you don't like his attitude .. He is in the top three of wr of all time..
please explain exactly what "Moment" he is missing? To stand in front of a bunch of people he doesn't like and act like everything is ok?
You would have to be the best at that position to go first.
Everytime I hear Shannon share this story about his wanting to share his selection to the HOF with his Grandmother gives me chills....
Who’s cutting onions?
Tony Hemetona lol
Tony Hemetona lmao!
Tony Hemetona your on every sports chanel
Tony Hemetona definitely me... that was nuts
Tony Hemetona 😭😭😂😷 I was annoyed
So wait Shannon, your saying that Terrell Owens should attend the Hall of Fame induction all because you and some other people fought to get him in the Hall of the Fame. It has nothing to do with you, Terrell Owens earned first ballot through his hard work, but he was personally disrespected.
coo3disk1 I like your quote!
coo3disk1 Facts
Without t.o the cowboys wouldntve won those games.. he was a GREAT COWBOYS RECIEVER..
I LIKED T.O AND STILL DO. IM GLAD HE FINALLY GOT IN HE EARNED IT
Thinking X
And that is why he doesn't give two sh!ts about it, once you realize who is voting you in and its not mainly based off of players, coaches, and NFL enthusiasts with no prejudice (of ones background).. the system would always be tainted, forever trying to purify itself but cannot do so..
No he's saying because everyone has a team and a support system that helps them become successful. He's saying he should attend for them. Not for the players how did you even come to that conclusion.
Some people are wired differently, You disrespect them once, your done. Simple as that.
I feel T.O.
he is a fool
Gabriel Hall nah it just shows that he's bitter and a crybaby. He was campaigning to get voted in and then he finally gets elected and he now chooses not to attend the ceremony? Come on man it's clear that he is trying to stick it to them for not making him a first-ballot inductee
Gabriel Hall... Exactly the NFL knew exactly what they we're doing. Smh
Im with ya. I watch sports to be entertained an T.O. was def as entertaining as anybody.
Idk man....I'm kinda split. Part of me understands the bitterness from basically being disrespected by voters. Other part says, this was YOUR profession, and you being recognized as being one of the best ever at your job!! That's special. Shannon kinda swayed me towards the latter..I respect his decision either way.
Terrel Owens made a grown man decision.
deharleyva what does that mean?
Grown child decision
He made a crybaby diva decision
give one good reason why he should go? What is there to gain?
That Guy if you would actually watch the video Shannon Sharpe makes excellent points and answers your question many times. Are you trolling?
When Shannon Started to talk about his grandmother and how he was unsure if she would be able to be there at his HOF induction you could see and hear the emotion in his eyes and voice
I think he's protesting the process in which they decide when you get in, because if you're a Hall of Famer then you shouldn't have to wait 10 and 20 years like some of them had to
Damn is Skip OK? Lmao all that breathing hard
Spencer ONeal
He's an old guy
Watching this on July 2nd 2019 at the end of the 6th hour pm and just wanna say that this is one of the deepest things I ever heard him say... He's a real one!
