Mostly because he very knows that Black Lives Matter hasn't done anything to significantly help the black community.

Don't worry too much about Pro-Sports this year....

There won't be any meaningful season for any of them this year due to the China Virus.

Combine that with no fans in the stands and a disgusted viewing audience....

My favorite Barkley action was giving Bill Laimbeer a black eye.

Having worked frequently at the Basketball Hall of Fame, I found myself in rooms with Barkley (and other great players.) In person, behind the scenes he is a good guy. This was not true of all of them.

Surprisingly, the other guy who was “decent” to the people around him was Rodman.

The people you imagine who would be jerks, are jerks.

It takes courage to stand against the tide. Submission is acquiescence.

I think that rank and file old guard Democrats are now realizing that BLM/Antifa, protesting, and the Hate America stuff does not play well outside of urban areas.

They get away with kneeling because there are no fans there. There will be little support for this disrepact when fans are back, especially for football.

Guy used to kill the Sonics. I was pretty into the Sonics before the strike (walked away from the NBA at that point).

Barkley was a killer. The Suns had quite a few. Paul Westfall was the coach. Hated those guys.

Met Barkley on a golf course in Tahoe. One of the nicest men ever. He is in constant pain. Walked the entire course. Winces with every step. Way, way out of shape and needs to take care of his health, but not sure its one of his priorities.
