Can't believe TNT let Charles Barkley take jab at Bama

I'm not all that mad about what he did but more surprised that TNT let him do it (as subject line says). A NBA pregame show that has nothing to do with Alabama, football, college, etc.

Stuff like this is what makes the NBA on TNT great in my opinion. It is the best pre-game/post-game show in all of sports in my opinion.

I may get downvoted for this but to be honest - I laughed pretty hard at it. Got to take it lightly guys, if it was the barn or any other team for that matter no one would be on here with the hair up on their backs. Chuck gets a hard time for the controversial nonsense that comes out of his mouth but hey, he's a big reason why people even watch the NBA on TNT. He may be absurd, but it makes for pretty good television.

Yes it's funny. He did go to Auburn. Just some friendly rivalry banter.

He's just being Charles -- don't take it too serious.
My friend spent 3 days in Miami during the BCS title game with him. Charles has tremendous respect for Alabama football and Saban. I even think he was pulling for Alabama during the game.

He was also very vocal during the barn coaching search. He said that auburn can't judge themselves based on what bama is doing because we are the best program out there with the best coach. He has a lot of respect for us but he is an expert level troll.

That TNT studio show is wonderful. Lots of jokes, gags, etc.
And Barkley was just being Barkley. Some of you guys need to grow up.

I've learned to appreciate Charles' irreverent humor myself and this was pretty funny.

lol, that's funny. Barkley is just having some fun. Chill out. Bama fans would do the same thing to Auburn.

Maybe we should ask them if they want more cheese with their whine.

You guys all need to take a xanax or something, this is the smallest thing to get all worked up over. Charles Barkley always says some smart ass comment about anybody, literally..

I guess he missed the pool party last year and the trailer robbers two years ago. What an asshole. I never have liked Barkley because he's a lardass big mouth boog but crap like that is unprofessional and crossing the line. TNT should fire him. He's a fall down drunk too.

You don't get out much do you?

This is getting out of hand, what's with all the "chill out" and "hurt feelings" posts? I think there was maybe one post where you could say someone came across possibly mad about this. I, the OP, was never mad or even remotely close to it; just surprised TNT let him do it as the subject line cleary says.
