This is just a few quotes from former NBA star Charles Barkley from last month's Stuff magazine. This guy is just a quote machine.
On retirement:
Quote:I'm just what America needs....another unemployed blackman.
on women in sports:
Quote:I don't like any women sportscasters. I don't like women doing sports-it just bothers me. I have no reason it's just because they are women.
on Chicago Bulls gm Jerry Krause:
Quote:He must have pictures of his boss' wife having sex with a monkey for him to still have a job.
On broadcast partner Kenny Smith and how Kenny likes MJ:
Quote:It must be the crack of Micheal's ass where Kenny's lips are firmly planted.
On Vince Carter:
Quote:He played like a girl all last year, TV made him a superstar. Now he has to play like one and quit whining.
On Tonya Harding calling herself the C. Barkley of skating:
Quote:My intial response was to sue her for defamation of character, but then I realized that I have no character.
On Broadcast partner Peter Vecsey calling him fat on air:
Quote:I told him I am gaining wieght and I could always lose it but he will always be ugly. I am not goping to jump him on TV because there'll be witnesses. If I beat him up, it's going to be in a dark alley somewhere.

a few more fantastic quotes from Sir Charles...

this also applies to cunnilingus
Those quotes are hilarious. Another great quotable sports figure is the late former Tampa Bay Bucs coach John McKay. My favorite sports quote of all-time is the first one by him:
When a reporter asked what he thought of the Buccaneer’s execution following a loss-- "I think it's a good idea."
One the early years at Tampa Bay-- "Every time I look up, it seems we're punting."
"We didn't tackle well today but we made up for it by not blocking."
On 41 year old kicker, Jan Stenerud-- "He may be the only kicker to kick and collect social security at the same time."
"Kickers are like horse manure. They're all over the place."
On this significance of experience-- "If you have everyone back from a team that lost 10 games, experience isn't too important."
"If a contest had 97 prizes, the 98th would be a trip to Green Bay."
"Statistics and records are baseball talk. They keep records like most times sliding into second base on a Tuesday."
"The only problem with doing the impossible is that everybody expects you to duplicate the impossible."
After paying basketball with Randell Cunningham
Quote:He threw up enough bricks to build a small community.
