Bayless is the ultimate troll.  He says whatever is controversial to drum up more press.  ESPN does not care about his journalistic integrity, just whether he can get more viewers, otherwise they would have fired him after his lies about leading his high school team to a state championship when he was just a bench warmer.  I shouldn't even continue feeding the troll by posting this.

His most recent tweet on Luck:
"I do not understand the overhyping of Andrew Luck. Nearly lost at home to TPryor 1st game, did lose home to Tannehill. Averaging 229 a game!"

He is not arguing as much these days that the Colts should have taken RG3 over Luck, but he continues to say that the Colts should have taken 2-3 years of Manning rather than an entire career of Luck.  There are $18 million reasons why Luck was the right decision for the Colts.  Furthermore, if an immobile Manning played behind the same o-line that Luck did and took some of the hits that Luck did, I'm not sure his surgically repaired neck even holds up for 2-3 years at all. 

While I can't say that Richard Sherman's blasting of Bayless was the most flattering representation of a Stanford athlete, I can't say that I didn't enjoy it.  And unfortunately that's exactly what ESPN and Bayless want. 

Sigh.  Sometimes it's hard being a sports addict.
