He would be in that club.

That was pretty cool. We talked Sixers basketball for about 30 seconds, about as much as one could ask in the midst of a workout.

Hard work and effort are what Sir Charles game was about, and he is a delight to watch with Ernie, Kenny, Shaq and Chris on TNT now. Seriously, people watch ESPN’s NBA show? Other than Jalen Rose (who is incredibly b-ball intelligent), they got nuthin’.

He had more of every stat than Sir Charles.

MJ only cares if you got enough B’Day money to get the MJ 28′s

TNT is more laid back with Charles, remember his DUI, he apologized to the suits
for not firing him despite is unpopular opinion of them previously.

Charles probably a is pretty cool guy to hang with.
I like how he ALWAYS calls out MJ, he called him cheap on Oprah.

Happy five o Charles.

Don’t get me wrong, Jordan was the best ever and I enjoyed looking back at his career, but countless other greats have turned 50 over the years with little notice. I believe there was some stuff done when Ali turned 50, but beyond that I can’t think of many other examples.

ESPN needs to do more stuff like what TNT does with Charles. He’s fun, but really goes in greater depth everywhere in the NBA than anyone else.

Barkley = Funny and entertaining = Underrated Hoops Intellectual!!!

In his only final’s appearance, up 2 games to 0 on the bulls, he said that GOD wanted him to win the championship. During his 50th celebration interview he still acknowledged that GOD wanted him to win the championship but he said “what I didn’t know was the GOD was wearing #23″

Classic Charles!! Happy Birthday old timer!

It aired after the slam dunk contest on Sat night. My wife and I quite enjoyed it.

Well maybe at golf it is.
