A great story of Charles Barkley helping a
busboy out. Chuck is the man!
As I alluded to the other day here,

CHRISTIAN ABATE majored in education at Temple, but
put his studies on hold for a few years
while having financial hardship.
Now that he's off gambling, Barkley can use
his money for good.
Today is the 2 year anniversary of the
20,000th time I experienced a vivid snapshot visualisation of
Edgar Renteria's line drive sailing over Charles Nagy's glove in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series. Thanks for the memory burn Tribe!
As Team USA gears up for another run
for WORLD SUPREMACY, it's hard to remember that there
was a time when the team didn't have to gear up at all. The were supreme five minutes before the Olympics, during the Olympics, and four years afterwards. Here's a look back at an article Phil Taylor wrote after the US captured the gold in Atlanta. He was not impressed by "Dream Team 2" to say the least.
Proving that he can be recklessly generous as
often as he can be recklessly gambling, Barkley picked
up the tuition for a busboy at an Italian restaurant he regularly visits in Philadelphia. Says the Philly Daily News: "Sir Charles told Abate he ...
Charles Barkley is giving his money away again,
and this time to a much nobler cause than
going into Steve Wynn’s pockets . The PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS reports that Sir Charles has decided to fund one special busboy’s college education. ...
Charles Barkley likes to get back to Philadelphia
every once in a while and one of his
favorite spots to grab a meal is Saloon in South Philly. Charles has been going there for years and became rather close with a busboy, Christian Abate. The busboy ...
Summer League action has provided a glimpse at
some of the incoming rookies for 2008, Olympic teams
are set and the last crumbs of free agency are still being devoured by the few with enough room in their bellies (salary caps) to fit them. Here's a round-up of your warnings for today...
Check out this gem of Barack Obama shooting
hoops while visiting U.S. troops in Kuwait from SPORTSbyBROOKS.
That makes Obama and Barkley two charismatic fair-skinned brothers who are nice at shooting hoops but stink at fine motor sports. ;)
There are over 7.5 million high school student-athletes
in the nation and 12 of them were nominated
for one of the most coveted awards in sports, The Gatorade Athlete of the Year award. This year's presenters included some big names, Matt Leinart , Greg Oden , ...
Rick Chandler is not afforded the luxuries of
being a celebrity journalist, but still manages to come
up with the same observations as the $10 Million Man.
If you thought 2 Girls 1 Cup was
bad, then you've never seen this up close
"People are saying, yo Chuck, you don’t got
no experience, whatcha gonna do, play a round with
visiting dignitaries like Nelson Mandela or Jay-Z? I know I ain’t no Colin Powell, but I sure as hell ain’t no Brownie neither. Put my behind in charge of FEMA I’d a fortified them levies with some Bush administration ass. Just stack them ole asses up high as the eye can see.”
LIFE OF REILLY A day on the links
with the round mound whose swing will astound. By
Rick Reilly Have you ever secretly longed to comb through airplane wreckage? Had a morbid curiosity about autopsies? Wanted to tour a torture camp? I have. That's why ...
You'll have to read it two or three
times, but it's well worth the effort.
It would be easy to jump on the
bandwagon and make fun of Charles Barkley for not
knowing what a blog is but what’s the point? Sure in an interview on TV he compared his golf game to a blog saying, “My game is like a blog”. He later admitted he had no clue what a blog “but it don’t sound good.”. I’m pretty sure Chuck knows exactly what a blog is, just not by name. He is one of the ...
Rampage Jackson is not having a good week.
Last Saturday night he lost his UFC light heavyweight
title to Forrest Griffin, and just moments ago the scene above played out, after police stopped him as a suspect in a hit and run. TMZ says Law ...
So I was mocked repeatedly for my "interview"
with Charles Barkley on Thursday , when I introduced
myself and told him that I would be blogging his rounds all weekend . Yes, it somewhat resembled Chris Farley interviewing Paul McCartney. But I'll ...
