  "account": "Skip Bayless, a notorious Dallas Cowboys fan, expressed his longstanding hatred for the Texas Longhorns after the team's loss on Saturday, which he believes helped alleviate his disappointment over the Cowboys' defeat the previous Thursday. Born and raised in Oklahoma, Bayless has always been a staunch supporter of the Sooners, despite being one of the most vocal Dallas Cowboys fans in the media. Following the Red River Rivalry, Bayless took to social media to share his satisfaction, stating that the Longhorns' loss \"almost\" made up for Tampa Bay's 24-16 victory over Dallas. He explained that his aversion to the Longhorns dates back to his childhood in Oklahoma City, where he found the smell of burnt orange to be delightfully repulsive. Although Bayless does not express complete satisfaction, this weekend's results have provided some solace for fans of both the Cowboys and Longhorns.",
  "summary": "After the Dallas Cowboys’ terrible loss on Thursday Night Football, another result for a Texas team he hates has ‘almost’ salvaged the situation for Skip Bayless. Skip Bayless is known for being one of the most loud and proud Dallas Cowboys fans in media.",
