Barkley is NOT a role model.

[El Gato Negro]

Nba should be consistent and ban him from anything nba related.

[Lakers Legend#32]

What about the fat women in OKC?

Butthurt much? Guess the sarcasm went over your head, think the nba would mind if tnt hired sterling? you know since tnt isn't associated with the nba in anyway lol.

Stern got Stan Van Gundy ousted from being on the ESPN/ABC pre-game show and Bill Simmons took his place.

And that shit was for strictly personal reasons.

Equating fat people to black people makes no sense. So yeah the sarcasm wasn't really clear.

You wanna explain that or are you just planning on decreeing it so and expecting us to accept your declaration at face value?

There's nothing wrong with fat shaming but there is something wrong in being racist, that's just how I see it :confusedshrug:

But what if I think there is nothing wrong with racism but there is something wrong with fat shaming? Who's opinion do we decide to force everybody to adopt?


Perhaps it is just better we allow people the freedom to think for themselves? :confusedshrug:

[fiddy]

[Im so nba'd out]

im proud of chuck way to not bch up:cheers:

Fair enough we should do that but where do we draw the line. As a random example, is it alright if some public figure or a VP of a company publicly makes fun of paraplegics?

[ShackEelOKneel]

Barkley is NOT a role model.

I thought he was actually going to say it.

[JtotheIzzo]

This is horseshit, Barkley has been mocked for being fat his entire career. IF anyone can talk about fatties it is CB.

Round Mound of Rebound? Is that OK because he is a man?

Here are some of the photos magazines would make him pose for back in his college days:

It's OK because Barkley himself is fat. It's like black guy calling his homies n1gga.

[SsKSpurs21]

Churros! Churros on the house! :oldlol:

People are so PR and sensitive nowadays. relax! its all jokes. Barkley is fat himself. if you are offended stop eating bean and cheese burritos for breakfast!

I am from San An and its the culture down here. cant blame barkley for stating the obvious. He says things for ratings. people tune in to hear what he will say next, good or bad. its entertainment.

If fat people threatened to boycott the NBA and the NBA was looking at losing revenue for it, sure Barkley probably would be in trouble. They're not and being fat is largely a choice.
