When he talks about his personal life, he said that he had only four long-term relationships in his life. He got married to his high school girlfriend, which for some unknown reason, now he considers it as his biggest mistake. It took him four long-term relationships before he got married to Ernestine, who was able to live with his possessiveness of his job. He declared on his first date that his job is his first priority. Presently they do not have anychildren.
Skip is a man of routine. He exercises twice a day and goes to church every Sunday morning. At the beginning of every week, Skip used to buy five days’ worth of chicken and broccoli. This is his dinner for all five nights of the week. Every weekend he used to buy five sandwiches for his five lunches of the week from the same Manhattan Deli.
By all measures then, Skip comes across as an intense personality. This has won him some detractors as well, who feel that he is a polarizing person. His wife says that Skip has a “heart of gold”. Now here is his personality more apparent than in the world of sports that he loves so much. His obsession with the ‘Dallas Cowboys’ is well documented. Recently, when the Dallas Cowboys were eliminated from the playoffs, Skip broke down in tears on his show, ‘First Take’.
