    Barkley Under Investigation

    A woman reported she was assaulted by Barkley at the nightclub 32 Degrees, Cpl. Jim Pauley said.

    I hope he "tells it as it is"

    See this is what happens when you get paid for no reason on Inside the NBA.

    Damn, I hope this is not true. If it is he might just tell the truth as Prodigy said. But I hope this doesn't escalate(sp) any further.

    Not surprising if its true. I could see Barkley getting drunk in a nightclub and making inappropriate advances on women.

    I remember a story a while back when Charles was in the locker-room, and some lady reporter came in to ask him questions after a game. He just took off his towl nonchalantly while answering her questions, and later she tried pressing charges against him. I thought it was kind of funny, actually.

    haha, like he said in his famous Nike commercial, "I AM NOT A ROLE MODEL!" But I still hope that he didn't do it, because I love him. He is one of the greatest players of all time, and some of my friends call me "The Round Mound Of Rebound."

    It was true. He admitted doing it

    It might have been that she asked if she could come in, he told her to come on in, and he didn't have his towel on. Maybe something along those lines.

    Must've been one cold, calculating, feminist bitch to actually press charges. The whole "I've been violated" thing really gets on my nerves sometimes.

    Anyway, I'm pretty sure that this new incident is something minor. Charles doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would assault anyone.

    I'll agree with another statement already said - He's no role model and he admits it. A drunk Charles Barkley has indecent assault written all over it.

    Hopefully all will go well for both parties.

    OK ok... But he still doens't seem like the type. He's got a good sense of humor and he's intelligent. A guy that I wouldn't be surprised to see it from would be someone like Ron Artest, or Dennis Rodman. Not Barkley though.

    Let's see ... he's spit on a fan, he's thrown a guy through a window in a bar, he tried to beat up an international player when he's on the Dream team ... I'd say he's the type.

    I like Charles, by the way. Fun personality, awesome player. But he is a bit rough around the edges.

    Alright you win... But he didn't mean to spit on the little girl, it was because he missed the guy he was aiming at. That counts for something right..?

    Oh I didn't mean that situation. My bad, but I was talking about his current situation.

    The charges were dropped and will not be pursued, I think in exchange for an apology.
