OT: LOL Anyone hear Charles Barkley on Ronny? 

Post#1 » by Sashobe » Wed Mar 19, 2008 4:33 am

He said something like, "He is just a little guy that plays hard. He is like the ugly girlfriend that is smart so it's OK."

That is not the exact quote, but it is pretty close to it.

EDIT: Quote fixed, thanks snaquille oatmeal!

Barkley might as well be looking into a mirror as he says that.

A very wide mirror.

Chuck is legally half (Please Use More Appropriate Word), so why care about what he says.

He entitled to his opinion, I think he's spot on, Turiaf's game is ugly at times but he makes it up in hustle and defensively blocking shots.

Only ther lakers I can think who had uglier games but would contribute are Rambis and Mad Dog Madsen

no big deal, charles says off the wall things all the time. rony was bigtime tonite, and we needed every rebound and point that he got.

- Don't forget Mitch Kupchak. KC Jones said the difference in the '85 Finals was Rambis' and Kupchak's rebounding and scrappy play.

Would Chuck like Ronny better without the dreads?

If your not the Phoenix Suns or the Dallas Mavericks then your not going to get him to say anything good about your team, even if you offered to pay him. He needs to leave the Lakers alone and be mad at Jordan, Malone, Stoction and a frew others for getting in his way for a damn title. His anger is directed at the wrong people. He's like a woman making her new boyfriend pay for her old boyfriends mistakes.

Good point. He is a genuis to be able to make so much money without having much talent as a TV commentator.

His comments though are still moronic for the most part.

what's the problem? ronny has a hustle game and hustle games are usually ugly, but effective. he wasn't calling ronny bad or ugly.

Cant believe some of you are getting butthurt at CHuck's comments.

Thats why he's on TV, to make himself look like an ass with comments such as those.

The guy is hilarious. He's a genius.

The comment that I heard, Barkley praised Ronny as "the perfect bench player" because of his hustle and energy. He might have said something else later in the show, but there was absolutely nothing critical in the statement I heard.

Really, that is the way you heard?
I heard it more as being ugly is to being small, and being smart is to putting all the effort you can.
Besides, isn't Charles on the short side himeself :lol: ?
