    actually shaq is far from the funniest athlete though he is amusing. Right off hand, I'd have to rate Barkley's wit and overall funny-ness far above shaq. It may help if Shaq spoke clearer, then again barkley mumbles as well.


    john mcenroe was a rather funny athlete in his day based on pure
    outrageousness and now even funnier in the replays with he and Connor wearing those 'nutter' shorts. espn classic is the best espn has left.

    Barkley's not perfect and definitely no angel but he's probably my favorite athlete of all time. I even look past that he went to Auburn. I have one of those all-time funniest quote books from Barkley that someone published a few years ago. Good stuff.

    While Barkley might attempt to be too funny these days because of the persona he's created, he's still got that spontaneous wit about him. He's also writing a book about racism in this country and you can tell it means a lot to him. He can be serious about issues that are important while still goofing around with issues that aren't.

    Barkley is a classic. Remember the time he was arrested in 1998 for throwing an overzealous fan through a plate glass window of a Church Street Station nightclub in Orlando? I was there to witness it and I'll admit it was funny at the time, but it was subsequently overshadowed when Barkley was led in to face the Judge in the courthouse.

    The Judge asked Sir Charles if he had any regrets about the incident and he replied, "Yes, Your Honor, I do."

    The Judge said, "And pray tell what would they be, Mr. Barkley?"

    Barkley replied, " I regret we weren't on the second floor!"

    :rofl: Classic! :rofl:

    Great Barkley moment.

    At the Houston Rockets / GS Warriors game out here
    in Oaktown about 1998.

    The HORRIBLE Warriors are beating the Rockets like a drum.

    My wife and I are 5 rows up on the baseline, and there's a guy about four seats across from us who RODE Chuck the entire first half. Warriors go in up by 20.

    2nd half starts. Barkley starts posting up on the baseline and goes UNCONSCIOUS. Turn arounds, fade aways, drive by on the baseline, pass it out to the open man on the double team.
    EVERYTHING was falling.

    He must have scored or gotten an assist 15 straight times down the floor.

    The guy is STILL riding him, only at this point now the Rockets have a 15 point lead.

    Suddenly, there was a break in the action.
    Our man starts riding CB again.

    The place was pretty quiet.

    At that point, CB turns around and yells VERY LOUDLY :"F.You!"
    (The fully obscene version)
    My wife and I bust out into hysterical laughter.

    The crowd goes OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH....
    ...and our man is silenced the rest of the game.
    Rockets win by 20.

    Somehow I could never see Shaq doing something that
    outrageously funny....

    Don't you mean if we see a guy in the crowd who doesn't believe in Jesus?
