During Thursday’s TNT broadcast of The Match, Charles Barkley lobbed a not-so-subtle jab at Fox Sports 1 host Skip Bayless. The insult came as Barkley was discussing where Travis Kelce ranked among the NFL’s greatest tight ends of all time, mentioning the Chiefs star alongside Rob Gronkowski and Shannon Sharpe.
Sharpe, of course, recently left his position as co-host with Bayless on the program Undisputed. After Barkley listed Sharpe, he quipped that he wished he could have a job like Sharpe’s where he could get a contract buyout for working with an “idiot.”
A day later, Bayless took to Twitter for a public response to Barkley’s words, referring to the Basketball Hall of Famer as a “clown.”
