Interesting words by Charles Barkley this week

[ChicosBailBonds]

I see we have Jordan in the news and a few others, seems like some of the older guys are getting more of their fair share this week.  Barkley made some interesting comments this week to be sure.

The title of that page is insanely misleading.

One more pathetic attempt by Chicos. All for a discussion on race as long as it is the black community that is being criticized.

Starting a thread that can only be locked.    Stunning.

OK, but is Russell Wilson "Injun enough" to play for the Washington team that soon will be changing its name to Scalping Savages?

Huh?

Exactly....huh?  

I guess Brandx didn't read his comments or he just doesn't agree with them, which is fine but doesn't make Barkley's comments wrong or uninteresting.  In fact, if you look at those in the community that have come forward to support Charles, it appears his comments are more than a bit interesting....yet Brandx sees it as an attack?  Strange.  Then again, Brand is the the same guy earlier that crapped on one certain Supreme Court justice, so the irony isn't lost.


That Dude....hey, uhm did you get a new source for Henry Ellenson to Kentucky as a done deal?  ThatDude is the same guy that came down on a bunch of us during the hiring process because we vocally didn't want Cuonzo Martin and ThatDude said it was for racial reasons we didn't want him....yet to a man all of us that didn't want Martin wanted Shaka Smart....hmmm.  When presented with this conflict, he still hasn't answered that mystery riddle.  Couldn't possibly be that Martin wasn't a very good coach with not a very good history as a coach....nah.

All comes down to street cred, but he can play for my team any day of the week.  Sharp kid, great athlete, carries himself well.  He's successful for a reason.  Most teams would love to have him, including the Scalping Savages.
