After Skip Bayless mocked Quinnen Williams’ leadership with a tired, violent punchline, a Dallas insider warns the Cowboys tackle to ignore the "fraudulent leech" of sports media.

Quinnen Williams is trying to communicate the right thing in representing his Dallas Cowboys.

And Skip Bayless - as usual - is purposely communicating the wrong things about a Dallas Cowboys team he pretends to know about and pretends to care about.

So I've taken it upon myself to educate Williams, who is fairly new to Dallas, on the subject of the reprehensible Bayless, who was essentially run out of Dallas years ago.

Williams, the stand-up guy defensive tackle, met with the media this week at The Star to speak in detail on what's ailing his 3-5 Cowboys.

"Q'' used the word "execute'' 32 times over the course of his press conference. Whether it helps the downtrodded Cowboys win at lowly Indianapolis on Sunday I do not know.

But it was an attempt at a mature message sent by a team leader.

Then came the typically immature response from Bayless, the defrocked TV personality most recently in the news for losing his job at FS1 while being accused of sexual harassment by a FOX Sports hairdresser.

"I must tell you that during Sunday's collapse against the Arizona freakin' Cardinals, I wanted to execute several of my players during the game," Bayless said while guesting on ESPN's "First Take.'' "Execute them on the field. I wanted them to be executed."

Any problems with this "analysis'' of Dallas' 33-30 OT loss? Yup.

One, they aren't "his Cowboys''; Bayless' fake persona is built on this claim, but just like buddy Stephen A. Smith's claim that he "hates the Cowboys,'' its all goofy and tired "embrace-debate'' TV theater. 

Two, Bayless is stealing without credit a punchline uttered by John McKay, coaching the 1976 expansion Tampa Bay Bucs. It's a 50-year-old joke - also goofy and tired.

And three, the best way to deal with Bayless, as his non-viewers know, it to ignore him. His ratings say that sports fans have come to understand this; Williams - who replied to Bayless on X by writing, "It's extremely crazy to say you wanted players on defense to be executed. You got to do better my guy'' - can be excused for not being aware.

So I'll help.

Skip Bayless is a liar and a fraud. He's a loathesome leech. He's a 'Boys barnacle. He is, as I tweeted back to Williams, "The Anal Polyp of Sports Media.''

Williams, who will lead 3-5 Dallas into its noon CT Sunday game at 2-6 Indianapolis, deserves to know this. And in case you're a real Cowboys fan in need of the straight-dope/no-bullshhh truth about Skip Bayless?

You're welcome.
