    I have been in NYC since early on Tues. after Florida won the NC on Monday night.

    I was in Del Friscos restaurant last night at the bar waiting for a table and standing next to me was none other than "Sir Charles" Barkley...formerly of Auburn and now TNT.

    I couldn't resist saying a little SEC dig at him..."how 'bout them Gators!"..

    He at first responded by giving the Gators their due but then his SEC instincts took over and he stated: "Man....I would have killed them lightbodies!!"

    It was all in good fun and my clients thought it was cool too.
    Anyway, back in Michigan and glad to be home.

    He didn't attempt to throw you through a window? Maybe he's changed! :)

    Maybe I was saved by the fact the hostess was there to escort him to his table.

    In any event my clients, having been told of my plan, were ready to bail out lest I come flying their way. :lol:

    Nah! Barkley's a Republican. He only throws Democrats through windows.

    I was so busy immediately following the NC game last Mon. that I had no time to read much about it....especially online but this article makes up for it:
