Micah Parsons is not happy with Skip Bayless. 

The Fox Sports Undisputed host expressed his displeasure with the Dallas Cowboys’ performance in the wild-card round of the NFL postseason last weekend, when the Green Bay Packers bested America’s Team, 48—32, at AT&T Stadium. 

During and after the game, Bayless sent out a flurry of tweets, one of which was a comment criticizing Parsons for his impact—or lack thereof—on the game against the Packers. Specifically, the Fox Sports personality said he couldn’t wait for the Pro Bowl linebacker to record his podcast, because that’s “what he does best.” 

Parsons, who hadn’t posted on X, formerly Twitter, since before the playoff game, responded to Bayless in a fiery tweet Friday morning, calling the commentator a “fake a– Cowboys fan.” 

Parsons accused Bayless of being “mad” that he didn’t want to appear on Undisputed. The Cowboys star then sent another post that promised to set the facts straight about “Sunday.”

Clearly, Parsons, who recorded double-digit sacks for the third consecutive season but was held without one in the postseason defeat, did not appreciate Bayless’s snarky dig. 

Emotions definitely are running high in Dallas, which will retain coach Mike McCarthy for the 2024 season, despite yet another early-round playoff exit.
