Charles Barkley at Ante Up for Africa

Just saw Charles Barkley at the WSOP Ante Up for Africa charity event.  Most of the media asked him about gambling.  I wanted to ask him something I had been wondering for years.

Michele Lewis:  “How did you feel when your mom called you a mama’s boy on HBO?”

Charles Barkley:  “I fired her the next day” answered Barkley. “No, I didn’t fire her but I did tell her if she said anything like that again I would fire her.”

I like that answer, Mr. Barkley.

Sorry for the typos earlier. I was posting via blackberry.
