Barkley on MJ's Divorce (Comedy)


How can you not love Charles Barkley? Here is some brutal honesty that he directed at his good buddy Michael Jordan in regards to his recent divorce:

"We've been giving Michael a hard time," Barkley told a crowd at the SMU Athletic Forum lunch at the Hilton Anatole on Wednesday. "He just got a divorce [and it was like] damn, bro, you wrote a check for $175 million? Are you kidding me? You must have some damn money. If you can write a check for $175 million, you're damn loaded."

Barkley went on to say that "sports is definitely not the place to be sensitive, no matter what it is. We're going to ride you unmercifully and we told him, 'It's probably bad to write a check for $175 million, but it's going to get worse. When you go visit your kids, there's going to be a guy sitting in your chair, wearing your robe, smoking a cigar."

The crowd erupted in laughter, but Barkley still had one more zinger for Jordan, saying: "You better hope it ain't one of us. You better hope it ain't one of your boys. We're all looking for a woman with $175 million."
