Sports fans will be lucky when Charles Barkley soon retires. Like the Skip Baylesses and Stephen A. Smiths of the sports world, his appeal while on sports television is based on style (for Barkley outrageous humor) than any intelligent sports analysis. He is a mouthpiece as a member of the ignorant black petti-bourgeoisie that serve as the cheerleaders to protect the status quo and that includes verbally insulting the homeless. He isn’t on the same team as the vast majority of the people who watch and listen to him spew his ignorance.
