Skip Bayless has sent some terrible tweets over the years, but his latest one about Tyrese Haliburton might be his worst.
Bayless is still active on X nearly a year after his time at FS1 unceremoniously ended. In order for something he posts to go viral, he usually throws some outlandish words out there.
That’s exactly what happened during Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals, when Bayless went on X to question the legitimacy of Tyrese Haliburton’s calf injury moments before he hurt his leg so badly that he needed to be helped off the court and was ruled out for the rest of the game.
Bayless started by sarcastically posting that Haliburton looked “SO HURT.”
Minutes later, Skip Bayless paid Haliburton a backhanded compliment about his impressive start by suggesting that the Pacers had planted an “injury excuse” and the media had “swallowed it whole.”
The Pacers brilliantly took the big-game pressure off Haliburton, who routinely no-shows, by planting the “injury excuse” that the media swallowed whole.

Indiana Pacers All-Star Tyrese Haliburton left Game 7 of the NBA Finals as his father, John, later told ESPN’s Lisa Salters his son had suffered an Achilles injury.
The Thunder went on to a 103-91 win to secure the NBA championship.
Haliburton couldn’t walk and eventually needed to be helped off the floor to the Pacers’ locker room.
After the game, Haliburton was on crutches and wearing a medical boot as he made his way gingerly through the tunnel.
Fans Blasted Skip Bayless
“Truly one of the worst tweets ever. My goodness,” one fan said.
“Have some shame, man,” a second commenter stated.
“Honestly, this might be the worst tweet I’ve ever seen. You should be ashamed,” a second person said of Skip Bayless.
“This tweet aged like milk 🥛 may be time to retire, old man,” a fourth person wrote.
“It’s not too late to do the right thing here, Skip,” a final person commented.
Social Media Is Sending Their Prayers To Clint Eastwood Today

Clint Eastwood turned 95 recently, but it hasn’t been an easy year for the legendary actor and director.
On Tuesday, fans across the country poured out messages of support as news spread about his recent struggles. Eastwood has been mourning the sudden death of his longtime partner, Christina Sandera, who passed away from a heart attack earlier this year.
The Hollywood icon has kept a low profile since her passing. For fans who’ve followed his career for decades, seeing Eastwood go through this personal loss has struck a chord. Though the actor has rarely been seen in public in recent months, his son Scott Eastwood shared a welcome update that gave many people a reason to breathe a little easier.

Scott Eastwood, in a recent interview, reassured fans that his father is holding up. “He’s doing good,” he said. “He’s a survivor, a trouper. He was born coming out of the Great Depression, and then he was young during World War II. He saw a lot of struggle.” That perspective seems to be carrying Eastwood through yet another chapter of hardship.
Supporters didn’t hesitate to show their love. Social media lit up with tributes, memories, and heartfelt messages. Many highlighted not only his contributions to film but also his resilience as a person.
“There are literally hundreds of reasons why a man doesn’t get better with age,” one fan posted on X.
Another fan commented, “HE IS NEVER GONNA STOP!!!!”
Another fan chimed in, “I hope he blesses us with his presence for many more years!”
Photographs from December 2018 show Eastwood attending the premiere of The Mule with Sandera by his side. The two had been together for years, and her sudden loss clearly left a mark on him. Though the grief remains, Eastwood isn’t ready to slow down completely. In an interview with Kurier on May 30, he reflected on aging with intent. “There’s no reason why a man can’t get better with age,” he said. “And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I’m not one of them.”
Clint Eastwood, who has eight children- Laurie, Kimber, Alison, Francesca, Kyle, Kathryn, Scott and Morgan- continues to lean on family during this time. For fans, the hope is simple: that he keeps creating, keeps going, and, most of all, keeps finding strength in the days ahead.
