Charles Barkley couldn’t go 24 hours without going back to his usual self and tearing down a black man.
You can be critical about a lot of things in regard to LaVar Ball calling him a bad father is simply wrong and it isn’t like Barkley is a shining example of fatherhood.
Here is what Chuck had to say on ESPN radio.
“Everybody talking about how he might be a good father, this and that. No he’s not. He’s just exploiting his kids. … He’s all about Big Baller Brand. He has no foreseeable talent. He’s trying to make money off his kids, and I just feel sadness for those kids because they’re going to do whatever he tells them to do. I just don’t like the guy at all, plain and simple. And don’t tell me he’s a good father. Just because you exploit your kids, trying to make money because you have no talent, that does not make you a good father.”
“I wish there was a place farther away from America they could send him,” Barkley said. “I don’t know where Lithuania is, but if there is another place farther away, I would love it.”
“I just feel sadness that the media—CNN, ESPN—has given this guy a platform,” he noted. “He represents everything that is bad about sports. It’s all about him. I just feel bad for those kids.”
When LaVar Ball’s wife had a stroke he was there for their for her and the entire family. He helps trains and takes care of kids in the neighbor for free. He’s never been arrested or was caught getting oral sex from a prostitute in his car. He employees several family members, gives jobs and opportunity to black people.
Charles Barkley is a hypocritical hater, plain and simple.
