It's almost a given for a broadcaster to view them as much as possible. NBC, which had the rights to televise the Lions-Chiefs contest, didn't give in. Bayless couldn't contain his excitement over it and shared his thoughts on X, saying:

"Amazing (and refreshing) that NBC is choosing not to show Taylor Swift (and Caitlin Clark) up in the box every time Kelce makes a play."

As popular as Clark and Swift are, the duo draws plenty of negative attention, which comes with their fame. Not just that, hardcore football fans also feel that the attention they receive is a distraction from the game and disrupts the broadcast's flow.

It boils down to preference, and in this case, Skip Bayless was among those who didn't want to watch Caitlin Clark and Taylor Swift as much as what was happening on the field.
