Skip Bayless supports Johnny Manziel with horrible math

Steve Mitchell-US PRESSWIRE

I spent today, as I spend most days, partaking in one of my favorite hobbies: ignoring Skip Bayless. The hero PFTCommenter alerted me to this, though, and I enjoyed it:

One of Bayless’ schticks, apparently, is dogged support for Johnny Manziel. He made this point by claiming the surprisingly solid Browns would be 7-4, not 6-3, with him as a starter, which means:

1. If Johnny Manziel were starter, the Browns would have played two more games -- 11 games in 10 weeks. THAT’S EFFICIENCY. THAT’S GRIT. A REAL QUARTERBACK INVENTS GAMES FOR HIS TEAM TO PLAY.

2. The Browns would have a winning percentage of .636, which is worse than their current winning percentage of .666.

We all make math errors sometimes, and we’d all slip up on live TV, but ... well, it’s funnier when Skip Bayless does it. Even if the math were right here (I assume he meant 7-2), that’s a very silly and arbitrary point to make. The dude SMHing in the background knows what’s up.
