Charles Barkley? Is he the best desk man in sports?

[Bennyshoe]

Some great Barkley quotes I pulled from a website....


- At halftime of the all star game, in response to seeing Beyonce in the crowd, Barkley said, “All I wanna know is when ya see someone that pretty, how can you go to Brokeback Mountain?”

- “I love Sam Cassell, he’s a great guy… but he does look like E.T.”

- “Craig Sager is the only guy on TV that can’t get a date. It is almost impossible to be on TV and not be able to get a date.”

- When Chuck was asked by the judge if he had any regrets about throwing guy through a window in Orlando he said, “I regret we weren’t on a higher floor.”

- During the NBA finals, Ernie Johnson points to a sign that reads: “Barkley = Dumb, Van Gundy = Dumber” Barkley responds, “Hey, at least that guy knows who I am. I have no idea who that guy is.”

- After Ben Gordon made a floater in the Bulls vs. Cavs game…
Charles: That is one shot that every player should learn
Kenny: Yea I am teaching my daughter and son that shot.
Charles: I thought your daughter and son were the same person.

I used to like Charles but he's getting a bit too ignorant with his comments. He is funny though. His head is getting too big as he is just another blow hard gambler who just happens to be on T.V. spreading his bullshit. He's showing less and less respect towards others and it's just a matter of time before he's done blabbering his mouth on national T.V.

Good for him!

he sometimes is the reason its worthwhile to keep nba games on for halftime and postgame comments

Haven't watched 5 minutes of the playoffs, but I try to turn on Tnt after the game to here chuck!

He is a riot!

Sir Chuck is the man.

 

[lapdance]

barkley is the best. kenny smith is horrible.

To be honest, I do not like Barkley that much. Everything is a F$ckin joke and he is too full of himself. His knowledge of the game is decent (nothing more) but sometimes he is off base in his analysis which he does time to time in between his obnoxious jokes. I guess I am in the minority here on this but that is ok.

 

[ElJefe]

He's the best! I remember when he said the ET quote about Sam Cassell.

 

[DonMelchor]

there was a thread about him a while ago that had a link to his quotes....

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

Sir Charles is all about having fun while you are working, I think more of us should do the same thing...life is way too short.....Once again, Dr. Know it All really doesn't know anything....

 

[THEPOSTMAN!]

Did you have the feeling that Chuck had lost some change on the Mavericks last night? I think that is the best studio show in tv sports.

 

[Wrigley]

Anyone have a video link of him knocking the bay area or in his mavericks jersey, I missed it last night heard it was pretty funny stuff.

I was being nice.

But oh well. I think Barkley is a dick!:youmad:

Again Barkley brings down the house at halftime when asked his opinion of the 1st half of Phx/LA

"I wasn't really watching to be honest"

Love Chuck. He's the most entertaining guy out there to me. Tells it how it is and just don't give a F.

Bennyshoe posted one of my favorite Chuck lines ever when they asked him if he regretted throwing the guy out the window.

"I regret we weren't on a higher floor." HAHAHHAHAH.

There is also another interview with him about a similar incident in a bar (maybe the same one).

lady: Don't you think you probably should have just shrugged it off an handled it better?

Barkley: It's real simple...(he pauses for a few secs.) if you come up to me in a bar and pour a drink on me, I'm gonna get up and whip your ass. (not exact words but something to that effect)

He is hilarious to me, and I can't imagine TNT getting rid of him. He is the only reason I watch their lame ass pregame, halftime and postgame shows.

Seem as though the entire crew on that TNT show including the camera guys have fun working together.

 

[oldirtyku]

My fav 1/2 time show period. Chuck is hilarious...

 

[GameBreaker]

chuck makes me laugh harder than most people, just reading this thread has made me laugh out loud a few times. wish I watched NBA more and thought to turn on the halftime and postgame shows
