Things one wants to say to Sir Charles

"Same again."

Looks like Karaban in the back hanging out by the TV's.

Listen to how tormented and conflicted Barkley sounds when he gives his prediction for the final game. It's hysterical actually. Like he's thinking, "I want to be a troll and pick against UConn, buuttttt, do I really want to completely give up every last ounce of reputation as a basketball analyst for it? Nah"

No idea why he is on these shows. He and Smith are not expert analysts and they are not well versed on the NCAA game. Pretty much they are clueless. I mean they could put anyone else up there but they apparently gave their whole budget to Wright who is good. Also Johnson is another example I guess they could change him with someone anyone really. Thank goodness we finally get Nance in our next game although the in game call is much better than the studio show. Barkley breaking down a college game is pretty bad tv for a true fan of the collegiate game. It is imo so much better than the nba product. Because you already know among two or three teams that will be the nba champ. And it will be about the player, Giannis, Tatum, Leonard etc…. The college game is the game I fell in love with as a kid. A true team sport. UConn puts together the sum of its parts and the team that has created has been pretty spectacular to watch. I mean they made Gonzaga look bad and they are not a bad team.

I agree but then it does make me feel better about my own inexperienced game analysis. On the other hand he makes me laugh; the best medicine.

Good segment on Charles on 60 minutes last night. I’m a big fan even if I don’t agree with him. TV is better with him on it.

Was it mom or grandma monitoring the poker games with gun on hip?

I’m pretty sure that he usually picks both teams in big games at different points. Tonight he threw on an SDSU shirt at the Capital One Jamfest. I think he likes picking both so that no one really knows who he picks.
