He can get any woman he wants! Deion Sanders once whacked Skip Bayless publicly after he

Skip Bayless is no stranger to confrontation, he has had the ‘pleasure’ of having been in the midst of some of the most heated debates along with players whom he has criticized. However, one of his more iconic confrontations happened when Deion Sanders was on the Dallas Cowboys and called Skip out for spreading the word around that the quarterback of the team, Troy Aikman, was homosexual.

Where are your facts!?

The analyst began to beat around the bush and brought up the issues that the QB was facing with Barry Switzer, who was the successor of Jimmy Johnson and had also been Troy Aikman’s coach at Oklahoma. Skip indirectly revealed that individuals from Switzer’s camp began circulating or had something to do with spreading the message that Aikman was gay.

Deion Sanders was not having this, if one knows anything about prime, he would always stand up for his teammates. Sanders had this to say:

I'm not gay, but Troy is a good-looking guy. I'm sure he can get any woman he wants.

Have you seen Troy Aikman in his prime? The man looked pretty good and he has since aged like fine wine. Pam Oliver, the host of the show dropped a valuable line, one that is very much relevant in even today’s times. “Journalism 101, you do not print rumors.”

The Dallas Cowboys players were not fans of Skip Bayless

The allegation regarding Aikman’s sexuality was printed in Skip Bayless’ book titled Hell-Bent. During the course of the interview, Skip accused Deion Sanders of not reading the book and hence not understanding the context of what he meant with some of his statements.

However, the host of Call it Like it is, Pam Oliver, who did read the book called Skip out for writing a book with nothing new in it.

I've read the book and I found a lot of it to be regurgitated Cowboys stories. We've heard them all.

Skip described the book as a “character study” of the key players and staff members of the Cowboys of the late 90s. Deion Sanders was not having this, he had to ask the analyst if he felt any sort of “friction” when he visited the team during practices and while covering them because a lot of his teammates were not huge fans of Skip.

Rare video resurfaced of an interview between Deion Sanders, Skip Bayless and Pam Oliver from the 90s, where Deion attacked Bayless over claims that his then teammate, QB Troy Aikman, is allegedly gay.

The reason for this was simple, Skip made it personal, it led to him having a rocky relationship with Troy Aikman and other members of the Dallas Cowboys team. The book was controversial on many grounds, in one of those chapters, Bayless had alleged that Aikman had called his wideout Kevin Williams a racial slur starting with ‘N’.
