Hell no. He's irritating as all hell. A few minutes before and after the game is enough Sir Charles for me.

it could be an hour long format...the first hal hour could be his show and the second half hour could translate what he said in his first half hour...

seriously, the guy sounds like he's talking with a sock in his mouth.

Im sure that would come as something of a shock to his wife.



She's the one in the middle.

LMAO, at the people who take anything Barkley says seriously.

I don't think anyone takes anything barkley says seriously ... except maybe Don Imus.

And yes, I am joking.

With a wife like that, I can see why he doesn't wear them.

... and he still has his job.
I don't really even know what the quote means. And its no way calling anyone "nappy headed hoes" also how could he be racist when he dons a Steve Nash jersey or a Dirk jersey during their analysis I think they're white.

Could I get a link to some of these many "I hate white people" quotes from Barkley?

The referee comment is clearly a joke. Much like when Jordan joked that his shoes had a white Nike swoosh because "The NBA needed some white in it." These could be called non politially-correct but jokes none-the-less.

Barkley does say some offensive things (players under 6ft are midgets) but I've never heard any racial hatred or bias from Charles.

They aren't white ... they are european. Only North American males between the ages of 18 and death are white.

Just having some anti-PC fun.
