@Mr. Q. Brooks started using profanity and Sharpe said the same thing back…I don’t see where he was wrong. If I tell you you’re too small to guard lebron, you get in your feelings & get disrespectful same energy applies 💯
@Cam dude, Shannon apologized for a reason...he recognized he was wrong and out of line. If he knows he did wrong, shouldn't we...I like the guy, just sayin'
Shannon's apology brought a master class of "Here is how you recognize your mistakes, acknowledge them, and then heartfelt apologize for them." Sadly Skip had the corners of his mouth up and momentarily looked giddy that Shannon was in the heat. It says a lot about Skip.
Yall are sheep and follow the crowd. Skip didn't do anything wrong. People are fake outraged over a reading comprehension problem. And yall fake outrage activists ran with it.
You don't owe us no apology, but the fact that you did makes me love you even more Unc! I've always been a Shannon Shape fan and forever will be 💪🏾 -Grizzlies Fan
Coming from Memphis, you owe us no apology. It's a part of the game. If it weren't you, it would've been someone else. We have much love and respect for you, Shannon! You're always welcome to Memphis!
That man is human and even as we get older we still do things we regret later. He is a real man for apology and he is showing people how it is done right. 👏👏👏Stand up and clap for this man. You are awesome guy Shannon.
Love this bro.... there's alot of people who owe you an apology but what you just did is the main reason why you're a great man and they're still lost.
Not only Athlete's but people just in life should all watch this man . The biggest problem in this country is accountability.. nobody's ever wrong !! Shannon I commend you brother!!! Thank you for showing the world how you're supposed to handle things!!!
This is not only an apology - it is a lesson on how apologies should be given: Sincere, direct, personal, captivating and above all, geared toward all the affected parties. @ShannonSharpe this is why you are our UNC!
Good for you Shannon Sharp. You are a great man for apologizing. I know you meant it and really wasn't a big deal but these days, some people make too big of deals with that. You did the right thing and your fans and people that watch your show are on your side.
Bro I gotta say, at first I thought it was gonna be one of those situations where he apologizes just to save face. But I was wrong. You a real one, Shannon Sharpe. Not like he cares, but I’ve got a new found respect for him. You can tell he really put a lot of thought into that.
We love you Shannon. As a Lakers fan I believe you sparked a fire in us that we needed. To see that our fans are still passionate about our team winning.
LMAO! A football player inspired you to CHEER HARDER for a basketball team? But the basketball players on the court… did NOT? 😮😂 🤡 Humdrum celeb worship. Nothing to see here. Unless you enjoy pathetic groveling and illogical emotional entertainment from desperate fans. Raise your children and take care of your families. These guys aren’t concerned with fans & didn’t mention fans for a reason. Cheer the team and go home. Or turn off your TV. If you don’t attend games. Shannon is a Celtics and LeBron… Stan. Non-celebrity would’ve been ejected and banned. Shannon never apologized for extreme unfounded disrespect of Kyrie. He should stick with football anyway. Entire circus.
So many times my emotions get the best of me and later I find myself apologizing when I just wished I would have been a better person in the Heat of the moment. I will always try to do better.
So happy to see this. Sometimes people can catch us off guard but I appreciate this standard to apologize and recognize your platform. Our young people especially needs to see more calm and respect to one another. Things are just too volatile today. Much respect Shannon. 🙏🏾
@Marvin I think maybe you thought I was referring to Winslow Jr, but I was referring to Winslow Sr. Winslow Sr revolutionized the TE & paved the way for TEs like Tony G, Shannon Sharpe & Gronk.
When you do things that dont sit right with you later on, you have to do right to be right within. big ups to this guy. Nobody is perfect, but we all must be accountable before we are held accountable .
Unc has so much class and character I’m so glad he is on this show. He brings me joy with his passion for sport. Much love for Shannon and proud of him for handling the situation.
That’s a legit apology with no “I’m sorry but”. This dude is the real deal!! So much respect for you Shannon and your family as we all have heard your story including your grandmother
I knew you would man up and apologize, 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 people were out here defending and lemme tell you. I look up to you Shannon!!! But things should never get that bad at a game. Love you even more for continuing to be a great man!!!❤️
He basically schooled all of us, Skip included, on what a genuine apology sounds like, and having enough character/humility to apologize ... even when it's probably not that necessary.
That’s a great example of being a solid stand up man and human being with high levels of ethics morality humility and class. There is a clear cut difference between the type of man Shannon sharpe is and the type of man skip bayless is.
This the best PR-related apology I’ve heard in a long time. One that has sincerity, self-awareness and accountability. You can tell that as both a former professional athlete and a media professional, Shannon has had the time to see a lot of people do this wrong and he's smart enough not to be that guy.
"I'm never going to say that that wasn't Shannon Sharpe because that was me; that was just me getting out of character. I'm sorry." This is a masterclass in public apologies. Owned his mistake, apologized sincerely, never deflected or tried to blame anyone else, said "I was wrong" four times.
Even with the entirety of the internet takin his side, he didn't let that get him big headed and decided to still put out this apology. Nothing but respect to Shannon for this well thought out and sincere apology
Shannon Sharpe is actually a W person. I was originally annoyed by the altercation, letting 1 fan who is too vocal and baiting a response completely disrupting everyone around him. It was a bit much. He didn't want to endorse the Karen mentality that some NBA fans have, where they think they can just harass players until they get a response. I have the utmost respect for him after this apology.
Once a fan, always a fan of Mr. Shannon Sharpe! Real men are able to apologize when they do something wrong, and set good examples for younger men growing up.
This might be the greatest apology video, I have seen some horrible apologies before and it's refreshing to see this man be so sincere and direct..... I would accept the apology
@Zenigundam for what just to cause more chaos shannon is my favorite analyst the man does his research but him scrapping him does nothing this apology teaches the younger generation how to behave through chaos you step up and be the bigger man and not cause rukus that may lead to violence what a class act by the legendary hall of famer Shannon Sharpe loss for words i felt the genuine in this apology 🙏🏾🐐
Yeah because his job is making him apologize. He's also a hypocrite bastion other fans telling them that they should have trash-talk but then he trashed Hawks players and it's okay He's a hypocrite
@Travis Taylor trust me, if skip apologized for getting in a player's face for cussing him the reaction would've been different lmaooo. two different scenarios
@Zenigundam boys fight grown men get over it, unless your life or your families life is in danger or you're paid to do it, there's no reason to fight anyone
@Troy Black You literally glossed over specific questions to take a stance you thought was virtuous one, in a situation where the man admitted he was flat out in the wrong. Btw, I'm stating my opinion as just that, my opinion. Explaining "why" is not presenting it as fact. It's called supporting an argument/stance. You don't have to accept it, but you also provided nothing disprove it. And bruh, stop with the "sensitive" stuff. This was a simple discussion of differing opinions and no lines were crossed. Folks start saying stuff like that to deflect. Nothing you said needs to be internalized. It wasn't a prolific statement, and I'd be willing to bet if it were someone other than a celebrity or familiar face, you wouldn't be as empathetic towards them in this situation. In a minute...
@MamasBoy dude you said you have never lost control to the point where it almost got physical . That's why I said you're a special kind of guy . Stop being sensitive . And again and for the last time , you were not privy to the conversation so you "ASSUMED" whatever was said was perceived as a threat . You are basing your "OPINIONS" as FACTS . I was suggesting that you hold judgment until you know better , but insist on responding just to talk instead of internalizing what I said . Peace out.....
@Troy Black you literally asked me have I ever lost control, as if it’s a common occurrence. You asked, had I ever lost control of myself? When I answered, you responded by saying I’m a “special individual” which means I’m different than the norm. That means you think the norm is for people to lose control and that insinuation brought in the “everybody” you say we’re not talking about. What am I not being honest about? My part in what? I literally said I used an (s) and “you got that one”. That was just me misspeaking, not attempting to exaggerate the situation. You said all he was doing is what “every” fan/supporter does. Not, “everyone fan/supporter is at a game/watching a game trash talking. That’s just a flat out lie. Let me get this straight. Shannon trash talked (instigated). Brooks responded back as he’s walking to his bench. Then, Shannon stands up, walks to the edge of the court and aggressively challenges him (escalated). And when those guys sense a potential threat from court side and confront it, you want them held responsible? Shannon himself has spoken against this type of behavior from fans/supporters, and has accepted responsibility for crossing the line. Yet, you are somehow still trying to act like someone else is to blame or losing control is acceptable behavior. Watch the video again and you’ll see the players coming over after he’s at the edge of the court aggressively challenging Brooks. I’ll ask you again, since you made it a point not to address it. If it wasn’t ego, drugs/alcohol, past beef, “why” did Shannon lose control in that moment?
@MamasBoy We not talking about everybody , I was talking about you and here you are still not being honest and accountable for your part . You said games meaning plural meaning multiple incidents . All he was doing is what every fan/supporter of players/teams have been doing since the inception of sports . Are you saying that because of his celebrity status , he doesn't have the right as a fan to trash talk ? Also you refuse to hold any of the players accountable in this situation . They approached him ! Once they did that , THEY escalated the situation right ? So at that point he wasn't supposed to defend himself ? Without holding both sides accountable , your point is invalid....
@Troy Black Bruh, think about what you're saying. If the majority of people lost control like that, this world would be in total chaos. Everyone gets angry, but the majority don't lose control. You're responding as if I said the man is a bad person. I said it seems like his ego is starting to play a part in how he reacts/carries himself. You attempted to repurpose my words to fit your narrative. I did not say "you hardly ever see him get into anything". What I said was "you didn't hardly hear anything about Shannon Sharpe". Meaning there was no attention nor light being shone on him. He was a HOFer, but his name was not a household name. Now, his name is ringing and that can/does cause some folks to get a bit of a big head and act out of character. Did I really diagnose him with something or did I say "seems like"? There's a difference. Also, I never used the term "multiple". But, maybe you saw the "s" on disruptions and took that angle. You got that one.😉 When someone instigates, then escalates a situation, the first question should be "why"? So, I'll ask you. If it wasn't about Shannon's recent rise in popularity, wasn't drugs/alcohol, wasn't past issues, what caused him to randomly act out of character and do something he's spoke against?
When we accept responsibility for making emotional mistakes, humility nourishes our spirits and attracts others to do the same. Well done Shannon Sharpe!
@Common Sense never will happen, they can never be wrong at all times and apologizing is not on their vocabulary. They are always the hero, the victim, and has all the rights to speak and listen to.
Thank you sir, you are a good example of a person who is human and as with all people can and will make mistakes or be emotional during many times in our life. Please understand we too can and will do the same so please continue to be your genuine self and express yourself when appropriate. Your humility is something that all people should admire and follow because even at times that we may be right the appropriate thing to do is show humility and take the high road. Wow! I am now a fan of yours now sir.
A real gentleman and class act man. Shannon apology goes so deep that makes you wonder at the end if it was really necessary to apologize! Amazing role model! Keep up the good work Shannon. Cheers!
@The Matrix Has You nah nah I mean in general if someone does something wrong and they know it, but still won’t own up and apologize. People who know it but won’t admit their error or flaw are insecure.
So if you have a different opinion than what you have and you don't think that you did anything wrong it means that you're insecure? Stop being a snowflake what skip did and what Shannon did neither one of them needs to apologize for it so just stop with your BS
Shannon I know you’ll probably never see this comment, but I just want to say thanks for always being yourself. You’ve given all the young adults my age a perfect role model to follow.

I know Shannon had to make an apology because of his job and stuff, but I really liked how he stood his ground
@Renoir Randy quit judging him
He a Georgia Boy scared of nothing
@Mr. Q. Brooks started using profanity and Sharpe said the same thing back…I don’t see where he was wrong. If I tell you you’re too small to guard lebron, you get in your feelings & get disrespectful same energy applies 💯
How did he stand his ground? He embarrassed himself by starting it. Then getting on the court he needed to get kicked out of the arena.
I respect Shannon even more for this
That was the most authentic and meaningful apology I've ever heard from a public figure on TV.
What a great apology...even saying sorry to his family. ❤
Facts but it's ridiculous that he had to apologise to his family. World is so over sensitive and acts like he stabbed a white woman
Damn. That was probably the greatest and most sincere apology of all time. What a man.
Uncle Tom is a decent actor. He knows his roll do what you're told or your gone.
@Wes stg you cant even be mad wtf
It’s crazy because for an apology to be decent/good, you really just need to say “I was wrong and I’m sorry”
Like this is important or something. 😂
"I'm never too big to apologize" clear shot at skip, love it
@Scott Davidson if you haven't seen it then you won't understand to what context it was. It was blatant disrespectful the way he presented it.
@Wayne B If Skip believes TB is better than Shannon then is nothing for Skip to apologize about. Opinions are merely subjective and that's all .
@derek D 😆😄😁
If it is it's a weak shot. Shannon was the one acting like a 15 year old child in public. Shannon is a diva.
@John Hendrix he did not he said he stands by it. Also didn't apologize for the way he came at Shannon about how he's not as good as Tom Brady.
Even more respect to Unc after this apology💯
Sorry nephew....but he wouldn't be apologizing unless he was told to do so. I can't respect that
@Cam Shannon a whole grandfather and he talking about "UNC" 😂😂
UNC? That's grand pa Sharp
@Cam dude, Shannon apologized for a reason...he recognized he was wrong and out of line. If he knows he did wrong, shouldn't we...I like the guy, just sayin'
It's more entertaining when stuff like this happens
This guy does his parents, his family, and himself proud by the way he goes his life - a very decent man.
Shannon's apology brought a master class of "Here is how you recognize your mistakes, acknowledge them, and then heartfelt apologize for them." Sadly Skip had the corners of his mouth up and momentarily looked giddy that Shannon was in the heat. It says a lot about Skip.
@Frye nah let the psychologist in the comments flex they degrees 😂
Nahh skip wus smiling cuz he kno shannon wus bout that action.. skip n shannon r closer then steven n skip
Yeah i seen that too. Skip is a snake.
Yall are sheep and follow the crowd. Skip didn't do anything wrong. People are fake outraged over a reading comprehension problem. And yall fake outrage activists ran with it.
He literally had no choice but to make this apology, yet still managed to make it a real, honest apology. Can't help but like the guy.
Ok I don’t think I have ever seen an apology so classy I love this man . RESPECT!!!
This apology is EXACTLY why so many people love and respect him.
@Lee Let's be honest. You're talking semantics.
@Sin Dilacion So what? He was wrong anyway.
Well said!
people cant stand him is this a joke
@Sin Dilacion I agree and disagree with you. He's a role model for many. Acting like that on television isn't what a role model should be doing.
You don't owe us no apology, but the fact that you did makes me love you even more Unc! I've always been a Shannon Shape fan and forever will be 💪🏾
-Grizzlies Fan
Well done Shannon. ABSOLUTE RESPECT ❤️
Coming from Memphis, you owe us no apology. It's a part of the game. If it weren't you, it would've been someone else. We have much love and respect for you, Shannon! You're always welcome to Memphis!
Unc was bout his issue. They was out of line, so he got em back in line.
Most respect to Shannon for that apology.
That man is human and even as we get older we still do things we regret later. He is a real man for apology and he is showing people how it is done right. 👏👏👏Stand up and clap for this man. You are awesome guy Shannon.
It’s amazing that Skip allowed Shannon to talk without interrupting him.
😆🤣😆
Lmmfao
It's all apart of the show.
Love this bro.... there's alot of people who owe you an apology but what you just did is the main reason why you're a great man and they're still lost.
Not only Athlete's but people just in life should all watch this man . The biggest problem in this country is accountability.. nobody's ever wrong !! Shannon I commend you brother!!! Thank you for showing the world how you're supposed to handle things!!!
This is not only an apology - it is a lesson on how apologies should be given: Sincere, direct, personal, captivating and above all, geared toward all the affected parties. @ShannonSharpe this is why you are our UNC!
@DArion Mccleary I don’t think it was tho because he knows he shouldn’t apologize
@jonny that’s his nickname on social media. It’s not that deep & relax 😂
Calling a TV personality Unc 😭😭 so weird
@Why You Buy Reggie?he shouldn’t be sorry I believe his apology was sincere but he shouldn’t have to apologize at all😂
Aka ESPN forced his hand
Now that is a genuine and earnest way of going about a heartfelt apology.
Damn... as a Grizzlies fan I just gotta say I have nothing but respect for this man after this. What a class act!
No way u from Memphis with that bs comment
@Jay Rizz cool story bro.
He was forced to say those things, he still hates your players
Good for you Shannon Sharp. You are a great man for apologizing. I know you meant it and really wasn't a big deal but these days, some people make too big of deals with that. You did the right thing and your fans and people that watch your show are on your side.
Bro I gotta say, at first I thought it was gonna be one of those situations where he apologizes just to save face. But I was wrong. You a real one, Shannon Sharpe.
Not like he cares, but I’ve got a new found respect for him. You can tell he really put a lot of thought into that.
We love you Shannon. As a Lakers fan I believe you sparked a fire in us that we needed. To see that our fans are still passionate about our team winning.
LMAO! A football player inspired you to CHEER HARDER for a basketball team? But the basketball players on the court… did NOT? 😮😂 🤡 Humdrum celeb worship. Nothing to see here. Unless you enjoy pathetic groveling and illogical emotional entertainment from desperate fans. Raise your children and take care of your families. These guys aren’t concerned with fans & didn’t mention fans for a reason. Cheer the team and go home. Or turn off your TV. If you don’t attend games. Shannon is a Celtics and LeBron… Stan. Non-celebrity would’ve been ejected and banned. Shannon never apologized for extreme unfounded disrespect of Kyrie. He should stick with football anyway. Entire circus.
@Larry J what 12th seed up and coming?
@Steven Prado more than the lakers Steven
@Steven Prado you'll always be a bum always 13th seed
@Steven Prado who cares about you?? Noone 😂😂😂😂😂 13th seed
the most corporate apology i've ever heard haha
Kudos, sir. That was a superb example of how a real man takes responsibility AND sets an example for others.
So many times my emotions get the best of me and later I find myself apologizing when I just wished I would have been a better person in the Heat of the moment. I will always try to do better.
For all the tough guys out there,"This is what a man does" Gotta respect him.
Facts. This is how you move as a real man.
That’s the most honest public apology I’ve seen in a while. Real accountability 💪🏾
@Kali Surf 10000%
Fanboys 🤮
@Kali Surf tf does that gotta do with anything?
@mrmorris215 People were too dumb to understand Skip's tweet, he said what several people were thinking. No apology needed
Shannon is one of the best
So happy to see this. Sometimes people can catch us off guard but I appreciate this standard to apologize and recognize your platform. Our young people especially needs to see more calm and respect to one another. Things are just too volatile today. Much respect Shannon. 🙏🏾
Now that’s an unscripted, no thought needed, real apology. Shannon you have definitely already won 2023…👍🏾✊🏾👈🏾🐐
@Cesar Canete Ok, my bad then. Before my time. Respect.
@Marvin 😅
@Marvin I think maybe you thought I was referring to Winslow Jr, but I was referring to Winslow Sr. Winslow Sr revolutionized the TE & paved the way for TEs like Tony G, Shannon Sharpe & Gronk.
@Cesar Canete Winslow? you trippin' 🤣
Dude is just a great of a man as he was a player. Most definitely in the top 3 TEs to ever play next to Tony Gonzalez & Kellen Winslow.
Excellent display of Class and Accountability. His Co-host recently proved to be the exact opposite. Shannon needs his own show.
Genuine heartfelt apology... way to go Shannon! Hopefully SKIPPY took notes.
Probably one of the best apologies I’ve ever seen and a perfect example of why Shannon is so respected.
I tend to respect men that don't have it in them to make him the center of attention of 30000 people on live tv.
LOL, he blames Brooks in the first 10 seconds for his behavior.
All while doing it in a shirt that looked like all the Grizzles threw him in the mud, and he just woke up. This was a peace offering, nothing less.
Yeah it shows his understanding of how his behavior affects people.
Skip Should Take notes on how to apologize
Way to set the example of being a real man and taking responsibility even if you weren't completely wrong💪💪💪💪
That’s how an apology is done. Dude made a mistake, admitted, moved on. Respect.
When you do things that dont sit right with you later on, you have to do right to be right within. big ups to this guy. Nobody is perfect, but we all must be accountable before we are held accountable .
Unc has so much class and character I’m so glad he is on this show. He brings me joy with his passion for sport. Much love for Shannon and proud of him for handling the situation.
That’s a legit apology with no “I’m sorry but”. This dude is the real deal!! So much respect for you Shannon and your family as we all have heard your story including your grandmother
This is also a kick to skip to show him how to say he is wrong and apologies for his actions and words.........ala his tweets
And notice that he didn't say "I apologize", he said "I'm sorry".💯
A
Real men are strong enough to apologize! Loved the interaction between Shannon and Tee Morant…salute to you both great gentlemen! 👍🏾👍🏾
I respect this apology yes this what real men do. Thank you Shannon Sharpe for doing this I know it not easy. Thank you bro.
I knew you would man up and apologize, 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 people were out here defending and lemme tell you. I look up to you Shannon!!! But things should never get that bad at a game. Love you even more for continuing to be a great man!!!❤️
Apology accepted Shannon! Your integrity is unmatched and that’s why we love you!
Once again confirms that Shannon is the man he appears to be, strong and real to the core yet imperfect like all of us. A real example.
@DAM D ppl were salty about some tweet Skip did
@☁POPULATION-_-420🌿 Who was on Skip? Are you looking for attention?
@☁POPULATION-_-420🌿 u kids weird these days
Ha ha u all were on skip cause of a tweet
Now Shannon making mistakes too
Yea unlike skip
He basically schooled all of us, Skip included, on what a genuine apology sounds like, and having enough character/humility to apologize ... even when it's probably not that necessary.
That’s a great example of being a solid stand up man and human being with high levels of ethics morality humility and class. There is a clear cut difference between the type of man Shannon sharpe is and the type of man skip bayless is.
Love that he didn't try to justify his actions or make excuses!!!
Just apologize, move on and try to be better
I really felt this apology ..almost like he was apologizing to me too 🥺
This the best PR-related apology I’ve heard in a long time. One that has sincerity, self-awareness and accountability. You can tell that as both a former professional athlete and a media professional, Shannon has had the time to see a lot of people do this wrong and he's smart enough not to be that guy.
@Just talking sociopaths can't understand.
@G.O.A.T James basketball is garbage boring terrible sport GARBAGE
What is y’all’s obsession with apologies
we see why he calls rodgers out so much for being aloof 😂 accountability like this is so rare
And full of bs. You dont act like this man child and then magically realize youve been a pos for 50 years
"I'm never going to say that that wasn't Shannon Sharpe because that was me; that was just me getting out of character. I'm sorry." This is a masterclass in public apologies. Owned his mistake, apologized sincerely, never deflected or tried to blame anyone else, said "I was wrong" four times.
At the same time, i love it!!! It just shows how competitive and passionate everyone is and I LOVE IT!!! Y’all know they gonna dust it off.
Great Job 🙏🏾 That's A Real Man Accepting Responsibility!! 💯
Love you Shannon! You a real one and a big time role model out here!
Even with the entirety of the internet takin his side, he didn't let that get him big headed and decided to still put out this apology. Nothing but respect to Shannon for this well thought out and sincere apology
This
Shannon Sharpe is actually a W person. I was originally annoyed by the altercation, letting 1 fan who is too vocal and baiting a response completely disrupting everyone around him. It was a bit much.
He didn't want to endorse the Karen mentality that some NBA fans have, where they think they can just harass players until they get a response. I have the utmost respect for him after this apology.
Shannon did it for clicks
True. ✌🏾
Lol the entirety of the internet. It’s about half half from what I gather.
Once a fan, always a fan of Mr. Shannon Sharpe! Real men are able to apologize when they do something wrong, and set good examples for younger men growing up.
One of the best/quick apologies I’ve ever seen, didn’t try to fight his case just accepted responsibility and apologized.
Now that’s what I’m talking about, being accountable for your actions.
That’s what accountability looks like. Thank you Mr. Sharpe!
This might be the greatest apology video, I have seen some horrible apologies before and it's refreshing to see this man be so sincere and direct..... I would accept the apology
the greatest apology video
@Taj Gibson what ? 🤣🤣 gtfoh
@Zenigundam for what just to cause more chaos shannon is my favorite analyst the man does his research but him scrapping him does nothing this apology teaches the younger generation how to behave through chaos you step up and be the bigger man and not cause rukus that may lead to violence what a class act by the legendary hall of famer Shannon Sharpe loss for words i felt the genuine in this apology 🙏🏾🐐
Well said!!
@Prince_Zuko19 huh?
Gain more respect from me after seeing this. Always had respect for him but for him to apologize and admit he was wrong gain more respect from me !!
“I looked like a stupid hot head and I apologize”
Literally what we all need to say when we let our tempers get the best of us.
You are a LEGEND Shannon Sharpe! What a lovely speech. Class act!
This is a grown man being, a grown man!! Thanks unc for continuing to be the example of what a man should do!
Shannon just put on a masterclass of apologizing and leading by example. He comes out of this looking stronger and I’ve even more respect for him.
@Zenigundam yeah I'm sure you would have a different view if it was a white guy trash-talking Dillon Brooks
Yeah because his job is making him apologize. He's also a hypocrite bastion other fans telling them that they should have trash-talk but then he trashed Hawks players and it's okay He's a hypocrite
@Travis Taylor trust me, if skip apologized for getting in a player's face for cussing him the reaction would've been different lmaooo. two different scenarios
@Zenigundam boys fight grown men get over it, unless your life or your families life is in danger or you're paid to do it, there's no reason to fight anyone
He had to, clown!
i expected shannon to respond this way. class act. love your commentary and what you stand for.
Love you, Shannon! This small moment doesn't smear your great record in all you do, it really wasn't even that big of a deal tbh
I already knew this was gonna come and good for him. After seeing footage of him and Ja’s dad hash it out afterwards, I knew it was gonna be alright
Good for Shannon. It takes a man to take responsibility for his own actions, especially in such a public forum.
Shannon is indirectly trying to tell Skip that nobody is too big to apologise when they are wrong. Humility is the biggest virtue
@Troy Black
You literally glossed over specific questions to take a stance you thought was virtuous one, in a situation where the man admitted he was flat out in the wrong.

Nothing you said needs to be internalized. It wasn't a prolific statement, and I'd be willing to bet if it were someone other than a celebrity or familiar face, you wouldn't be as empathetic towards them in this situation.
In a minute...
@MamasBoy dude you said you have never lost control to the point where it almost got physical . That's why I said you're a special kind of guy . Stop being sensitive .

You said all he was doing is what “every” fan/supporter does. Not, “everyone fan/supporter is at a game/watching a game trash talking. That’s just a flat out lie.
Let me get this straight. Shannon trash talked (instigated). Brooks responded back as he’s walking to his bench. Then, Shannon stands up, walks to the edge of the court and aggressively challenges him (escalated). And when those guys sense a potential threat from court side and confront it, you want them held responsible? Shannon himself has spoken against this type of behavior from fans/supporters, and has accepted responsibility for crossing the line. Yet, you are somehow still trying to act like someone else is to blame or losing control is acceptable behavior.
Watch the video again and you’ll see the players coming over after he’s at the edge of the court aggressively challenging Brooks.
I’ll ask you again, since you made it a point not to address it. If it wasn’t ego, drugs/alcohol, past beef, “why” did Shannon lose control in that moment?
@MamasBoy We not talking about everybody , I was talking about you and here you are still not being honest and accountable for your part . You said games meaning plural meaning multiple incidents . All he was doing is what every fan/supporter of players/teams have been doing since the inception of sports . Are you saying that because of his celebrity status , he doesn't have the right as a fan to trash talk ? Also you refuse to hold any of the players accountable in this situation . They approached him ! Once they did that , THEY escalated the situation right ? So at that point he wasn't supposed to defend himself ? Without holding both sides accountable , your point is invalid....
@Troy Black Bruh, think about what you're saying. If the majority of people lost control like that, this world would be in total chaos. Everyone gets angry, but the majority don't lose control. You're responding as if I said the man is a bad person. I said it seems like his ego is starting to play a part in how he reacts/carries himself.
You attempted to repurpose my words to fit your narrative. I did not say "you hardly ever see him get into anything". What I said was "you didn't hardly hear anything about Shannon Sharpe". Meaning there was no attention nor light being shone on him. He was a HOFer, but his name was not a household name. Now, his name is ringing and that can/does cause some folks to get a bit of a big head and act out of character.
Did I really diagnose him with something or did I say "seems like"? There's a difference.
Also, I never used the term "multiple". But, maybe you saw the "s" on disruptions and took that angle. You got that one.😉
When someone instigates, then escalates a situation, the first question should be "why"?
So, I'll ask you.
If it wasn't about Shannon's recent rise in popularity, wasn't drugs/alcohol, wasn't past issues, what caused him to randomly act out of character and do something he's spoke against?
Great Apology Shannon..... We all make mistakes and I will be sending this video to my son to show him how real men apologize. Great Job sir!
Greatest apology of all time ❤
A real unscripted apology! Respect Shannon.
That's a great performance from Mr. Sharp.
I wish everyone out there when they lose control reacts in a humble way like Sharp did...Keep it up Bro...
This truly feels like an apology. More respect to Shannon.
@Tony Montana nope
Stop it
We all make mistakes. Thank you for owning yours and exemplifying how to grow from a poor decision.
I love Shannon Sharpe for his loyalty. Loyalty is hard to find in this world.
Got so much respect for Shannon..he's the real deal.
Great job Shannon, your a real one out here. You didnt have to apologize but reputation is everything
When we accept responsibility for making emotional mistakes, humility nourishes our spirits and attracts others to do the same. Well done Shannon Sharpe!
@Common Sense never will happen, they can never be wrong at all times and apologizing is not on their vocabulary. They are always the hero, the victim, and has all the rights to speak and listen to.
@Common Sense They’ll never do it, ever, throughout history, because NEVER ONCE has a woman EVER apologized right?
This how Edgar Allan Poe would sound if he wasn't emo
@Common Sense They can't, their emotions and hormones are always on overdrive.
Oh man, I am stealing this!
Much respect for Shannon for being the true professional.
Thank you sir, you are a good example of a person who is human and as with all people can and will make mistakes or be emotional during many times in our life. Please understand we too can and will do the same so please continue to be your genuine self and express yourself when appropriate. Your humility is something that all people should admire and follow because even at times that we may be right the appropriate thing to do is show humility and take the high road. Wow! I am now a fan of yours now sir.
Best apology by a Professional athlete ever. 👊🏿✊🏿
I agree 💯
Shannon is pure class. Bruh, that's the way a man does things and much love and respect to you and for you!
A real gentleman and class act man. Shannon apology goes so deep that makes you wonder at the end if it was really necessary to apologize! Amazing role model! Keep up the good work Shannon. Cheers!
I have so much respect for this guy he carries himself with such class
This is a heartfelt, sincere apology - but only to be expected from Shannon as he always seems to a very respectful.
Honestly, while any man would’ve reacted like that, I respect shannon for apologizing even if there were no winners or losers of the situation.
I will always love and respect Shannon Sharpe.
It’s crazy when insecure people cannot apologize even when wrong. Way to go Shannon
Big loud mouth. Look at me at me
@The Matrix Has You nah nah I mean in general if someone does something wrong and they know it, but still won’t own up and apologize. People who know it but won’t admit their error or flaw are insecure.
So if you have a different opinion than what you have and you don't think that you did anything wrong it means that you're insecure? Stop being a snowflake what skip did and what Shannon did neither one of them needs to apologize for it so just stop with your BS
He should've had that Energy with Skip foh
Finally, someone gave a real apology for once!
Shannon I know you’ll probably never see this comment, but I just want to say thanks for always being yourself. You’ve given all the young adults my age a perfect role model to follow.
People need to take notes regarding this sincere apology. I have mad respect for Mr. Shannon Sharpe.
An unqualified mea culpa. That's how it's done! Well done, Shannon Sharpe.
Strongest apology I’ve ever heard. Blessings to this man and his family. Hopefully his grandson does hear this one day💯
Rare to see an apology being made with full accountability. No justification and no excuses
Damn this the most real sincere apology Ive heard dealing with a heated situation.
Classy...sincere...respectful; thank you Mr. Sharpe.
Stand-up guy no question about it extremely mature and something that would have only come from a Class Act thanks Shannon
