Draven 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Yeah I was watching, even Letterman was trying to sort out the mascot thing. I liked Sir Charles response, Auburn is just such a great place it needs three names. I went to Charles’s home about 10 or 12 years ago, I know people say a lot of bad things about his attitude but he really is a good guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeagleDMS 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 So what exactly did they talk about? I only saw the 2nd part of the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR EAGLE!!! 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I was kind of dissapointed Charles didn't set the record straight with the mascot thing. He said that "maybe the football team is the War Eagles because as eagle flies around the stadium". I wonder if he even listened to the fans that screamed WAR EAGLE when he was on the basketball court? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letterman asked and Charles tried to adlib. But he was funny. "When I was growing up I don't know any black guys who wanted to get away to Oklahoma! They wanted to get away, NY, Chicago, Miami, Philladephia, but I didn't know any who wanted to go to Oklahoma." Charles Barkley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
