Shannon Sharpe briefly addressed the lawsuit against Fox Sports, which named Skip Bayless and Joy Taylor, among other people, during his show on Sunday night. Sunday afternoon, Front Office Sports reported that a former Fox Sports hairstylist had filed a lawsuit against the network.

Now emerging from this alleged "den of iniquity'' is a Skip Bayless colleague Stephen A. Smith, who is offering a Jay-Z-related semi-defense of Skip that is almost as odd as the case itself.

Sharpe is only mentioned in the lawsuit once. Faraji claims Bayless accused her of sleeping with Sharpe, which isn’t an allegation of any wrongdoing. Sharpe pointed this out on the air too, briefly addressing the matter and saying it has “nothing to do with me.” He later said people were just bringing him into it for “clicks.”
