I agree with him but the Hommies will just dismiss him as “acting White”. They are in deep denial of reality.

Barkley likes hockey?

Big time, and that was in the 80's. I saw him at numerous Flyer games.

At that time very few blacks played ice hockey professionally. The only one I can think of played for the Edmonton's Oilers.

He’s an enigma. All over the place sometimes, and I used to dislike him on TNT’s CBB Tournament shows. But this past March I grew to like him (again) after making really good showing as an analyst.

Barkley understands the race issue and the race hustlers don’t approve of him.

I can respect some a**holes and he is one of them. If we couldn’t respect anyone with some traits we didn’t like, we couldn’t respect anyone, ourselves included.

Have no idea why so many are slamming him - he makes some truthful and common sense remarks and many here prefer to ignore that and slam him for other traits/political bents he has. Just because one is on FR doesn't mean the person is rational.

The IRS will now “audit” Barkley for 7 years.

(Not joking, either)

And “tribalism” is less of a problem.

It’s the Thug Culture that makes them think they can get away with being criminals.

All I can say is I’ve run into him actually on three different occasions and he is a very nice guy. I watched him try to have a meal at Hooters but couldn’t eat because people kept asking for his autograph and he would sign what they had. Not kidding, I was sitting at the table next to his (and his entourage)and I couldn’t take it anymore and jumped up and yelled very loudly, “Jesus, please let the man eat!!!”. He shook my hand on his way out and said “thanks for that, its hard to eat out sometimes”. This was the night before the Cowboys Eagles playoff game me and my friends were going to in 93. I ran into him at the game and he remembered me and invited me and my boys to his suite. It was awesome!!!! Oh yeah, Cowboys smoked the Eagles and went on to win the Superbowl. About a year later he was at a Rockets cheerleaders B-day party in the VIP bar at my friends enormous sports bar at the time and my buddy let me go in there. I was standing at the bar next to him and Sleepy Floyd and he remembered me again. He told the bartender “get us all a shot of your best tequila.” After the 3 of us did our shots the bartender leaned over and told me a just drank a $150 shot. That was very cool.

Larry’s a classy guy and smart as a whip. I wish there were millions more like him. America would be a much better place.
