'They'll Kill You' - Charles Barkley Is Sick And Tired Of Hearing LeBron Being Delusional Saying He Can Play Football
This is why the world needs Charles Barkley. He's a man who will say exactly what he's thinking, no matter the topic, the time or place. He's not wrong either. LeBron and some of these other guys were good in high school because they were built like athletic freaks playing other high school kids. But this is also LeBron
Now imagine him going across the middle in the NFL. You think one of those safeties or linebackers aren't looking to take him out? They - double checks notes - hit hard.
I know Antonio Gates played college basketball and became one of the best tight ends ever. You know what else he did? Was recruited to play football at Michigan State for Nick Saban. That's my counterpoint here to anyone who brings up his name. If Nick Saban, at any point in his career, thought he could play college football, you're more than just a basketball player at Kent State. Still can't believe they made that run to the Elite Eight though.
I said in a blog earlier this week we need to bring back Pros vs Joes, let's do Pros vs Pros too. In fact I know a couple guys on a bus who aren't afraid to lineup and prove a point when someone starts running their mouth about doing something against an NFL player.
In the offseason, put on the pads in a 11 on 11 drill and let's see what happens. If you want to talk about how you could play football, line up against football players. That is, unless, a trade to the Knicks happen. Then play in a bubble and and don't you dare say the word football. This is about Chuck though. God Bless Charles Barkley. The world needs more people like him who aren't afraid to say what he thinks.
