Hell, I believe I'm the best-looking guy in the world and I might be right." 48. "I don't hate anyone, at least not for more than 48 minutes, barring overtime." 47. "We better not be doing the Bulls this year. Man, they suck! Bunch of high school kids with $70 million contracts. Damn! I hate my mother for having me too soon." 46. "You can talk without saying a thing. I don't ever want to be that type of person." 45. After retiring from basketball "I'm just what America needs - another unemployed black man. 44. Ernie: "Did they recognize you in South Dakota?" Charles: "Yes, they did. It was easy because I was the only black person there. When they see me walking down the street they say 'There he goes again'. And when I come back the next year they say 'He's back yawl!'" 43. Right after Peja won the 3-point contest: "Kenny said it was going to be an all-international night. I want to know which international brother is going to win the slam dunk contest." 42. On the Enron scandal investigation: "Almost all those politicians took money from Enron, and there they are holding hearings. That's like O.J. Simpson getting in the Rae Carruth jury pool." 41. "I had to explain to my daughter why that skank Monica Lewinski has an hour special on HBO this weekend." 40. Ernie: "Auburn is a pretty good school. To graduate from there I suppose you really need to work hard and put forth maximum effort." Charles: "20 pts and 10 rebounds will get you through also!" 39. "Every time I think about changing a diaper, I run a little bit harder and a little bit faster to make sure I can afford a nanny until my daughter's old enough to take care of that herself." 38. EJ: "Did you graduate from Auburn?" Charles: "No, but I have a couple people working for me who did." 37. "*** Bavetta and Moses parted the Red Sea together." 36. Ernie Johnson, on Reggie Evans being caught grabbing the rocks of Chris Kaman: "(Reggie Evans) got caught with his hand in the cookie jar."Charles Barkley: "Ernie, I don't know where you get your cookies at but the rest of us don't get ours there." 35. On his 17-year old daughter not dating yet: "Thank goodness. I just hope she doesn't start before I go in the Hall of Fame. That way, I won't have to kill anybody before I get inducted." 34. Kenny: "There's guys who go over to Europe and play overseas from America, and they dominate!" Charles: "Those are called 'brothers' 33. After Wang has a shot blocked: "He's got to bring something stronger than that. That's like bringing milk to a bar, it's not strong enough" 32. Barkley on Turner Sports office having a betting pool on his weight: "That is starting to hurt my feelings. I don't mind skinny people making fun of me, we all do that, but I don't want fat people making fun of me." 31. "We are in the business of kicking butt and business is very, very good." 30. When the Dream Team was about to play the Angola national team, during pre-game interviews the other USA players provided diplomatic, face saving comments about how they would play hard and felt strongly they would win. When Chuck was asked about Angola and the game, he replied: "They're in a lot of trouble." 29. Charles Barkley on his thoughts about retiring before the season: "I remember sitting down with the Rockets and saying, 'Yeah. I'm going to retire.' They said, 'Well, we'll give you $9 million.' And I said, 'You got a pen on you?'" 28. Man, everything gets blamed on the Clintons, every single thing in this world. I think Bill Clinton shot JFK, too. 27. "I know why his name is DMX. Because his real name is Earl. Imagine if his name was Earl the rapper." 26. "If you go out with a girl and they say she has a great personality, she's ugly. If they tell you a guy works hard, he can't play a lick. Same thing." 25. After Kevin Garnett threw a ball into the crowd out of frustration and was ejected. They showed footage of the man that got hit by the ball being taken away in a stretcher and his daughter was crying. Charles commented that players take passes to the face all the time. He topped it off by saying: "You know why that little girl's crying? It's because she's thinking 'my daddy's a wussy'". 24. Barkley on Ernie Johnson and Kenny Smith eating a box of hot Krispy Kreme donuts in front of him: “Both of y’all are2 going to hell for that. Y’all are going to hell with a first-class ticket. Is that how you treat your partner? Krispy Kreme might be the greatest invention in the history of civilization when they’re hot. Y’all are cruel man.†23. "It's kinda great to see the Celtics doin well again cuz that was so much fun in my day to go to the Boston Garden and they spit at you and throw things at you and talk about your mom. It sounds like dinner at Kenny Smith's house." 22. "I think that the team that wins game five will win the series. Unless we lose game five." 21. Charles Barkley after seeing a picture of Sam Cassell on the screen: "Phone home." And later he remarks to Kenny, "Sam Cassell is a good guy, but he's not going to wind up on the cover of GQ anytime soon." 20.

"All I know is, as long as I led the Southeastern Conference in scoring, my grades would be fine." 13. On North Carolina missing 22 of its last 23 shots in losing to Georgetown in the NCAA tournament last weekend: "Stevie Wonder could make one of 23 shots." 12. I'd never buy my girl a watch... she's already got a clock over the stove. 11. "I always laugh when people ask me about rebounding techniques. I've got a technique. It's called just go get the damn ball." 10. On the Portland Trail Blazers (back when they were known as the Jail Blazers) serving Thanksgiving meals: "In between arrests they do community service." 9. "Yeah Ernie, its called defense, I mean I wouldn't know anything about it personally but I've heard about it through the grapevine. 8. "Well, when I went off to college, the guys I used to hang with were pumping gas and voting Democrat. Today they're still pumping gas and voting Democrat. Guess the Democrats didn't do much for them." 7. "When I was recruited at Auburn [university], they took me to a strip joint.

Charles: "Yeah I regret we weren't on a higher floor" 1. After an Olympic Dream Team victory over Angola, in which they won 116-48, Charles got into a physical altercation with a member of Angola towards the end of the game, afterwards he says: "Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back. Even if it does look like he hasn't eaten in a couple weeks. I thought he was going to pull a spear on me."
  3. There are blogs for that Moncton Boy.
  4. Listen to Wonderwall. I bet that will amp up the idiot-factor. Anyways DogAtTheStation, the same thing happened here. I got the only 2 songs I have been dying to experience live and not too mention some awesome surprises. Oh My God Whatever was fantastic. I was also surprised to learn that I See Monsters could make me happy live. Maggie was saying they were riffing on Champagne Supernova to end it but dont ask me to confirm it because I dont know that tune well enough.
  5. No one should listen to that recording. As usual with Ryan Adams, wait for the matrix.
  6. At least we'll get a killer sbd.
  7. On the plus side, I met a dude from Canada who had seats beside me. His name turned out to be Prost. Hahahaha. Totally awesome.
  8. What a shitty fucking crowd, so annoying and took away from my ability to maintain focus on the music. Look not further than Wonderwall. And they stunk. Bad BO was their MO. I think most of the show was great but those all important nuances were washed away from the constant drunken garbled conversations everyone was having. You paid 45 bucks for tickets so you could get smashed and talk the whole time? It's hard for me to comment on anything else right now because I am still extremely bitter. The interior of the Landmark is stunning.
  9. Low Roller likes the CAC, confirmed.
  10. You are, you delicate little flower.
  11. How do you know this Ollie?
  12. My brother in law took us down there at the end of August and couldnt find a spot because it had 'permit only' signs on a number of streets. People were offering to park in their driveways or lawns for 20$. Perhaps that was just because of the Ex?
  13. That was 12 years ago pops. You need permits to park on those streets now. And AD, my earlier point was that Ollie's parking comment is naive and close-minded. I am guessing that Melnyck prefers to build the stadium out in Kanata (aside from the steal of a deal he will get) is that it gives him a better shot of drawing from a larger fan base. He seems like a pretty smart dude and has probably done a fair share of market research. Please dont ask for my suggestions because I see some of the pros/cons with both locations and I honestly dont know which one is best for an MLS team to succeed here. Personally, I would prefer something built at Lansdowne because it's easier for me to get to and I dont have to drive.
  14. That's exactly what I have done when I have seen sporting events at Lansdowne but it doesnt change the fact that parking/traffic is horrific for a 20,000 stadium.
  15. You think spots are that easy to come by? The parking/traffic is a horrific proposition for Lansdowne.
  16. Brandon Bochenski has been placed on waivers by the Tampa Bay Lightning. I hope the Sens grab him.
  17. I like to pretend those moments dont exist because its more entertaining.
  18. Ollie and I couldnt be more opposite about everything. Always.
  19. I might have to try and get on that Kingston show, depending on the price point.
  20. Bedhead6 was recently made available at the Ryan Adams archive. There is a Boston show from a couple of weeks ago that you should grab. Dont expect any links from me wookie.
  21. Hahahhaa, you just reminded me of Jim's silent 'that's what she said' moment. That may have been my favorite non-line ever on the show. "If you cant swallow it, hold it in your mouth."
