    when in the evening do yall think they will have the race? I don't know if they would lead off the night with it but I am pretty sure they won't have it like after the 3pt contest or dunk contest. Although, this might be the most entertaining contest of the night so maybe they should do it last.

    Charles has a huge pair of stuff, he won't be able to run fast, unless he loses a million bucks at the casino and try to run away from the bank. :D

    Dick Bavetta runs up and down the floor and has to keep pace with the players each game he officiates.... Did Barkley do that even when he was playing?

    I think Bavetta wins hands down.

    I could only imagine, and we may have deserved it, but... what DID he say? :(

    He basically said that we were worthless and "come playoff time they can't beat either Dallas, San Antonio, or Phoenix...NOT EVEN UTAH."

    Barkley is going to win. Yeah he is overweight but not too long ago he was still a world class athlete. A 67 year old guy is not going to beat a 43 year old former MVP and one of the most explosive PF of all time.

    He will if his opponent's ass is fat as hell from eating Krispy Kreme's all day. Go Bavetta! (Can't believe I just said that)

    Harper's shot was a 2, wasn't it? (point remains regardless)

    Dick will win, hands down.
    Besides, that "67-year old" card Barkley is playing is getting old.

    There can't be a more inappropriate way to say it. :D

    The real question is who collapses first. Bavetta is an old geezer who doesn't sprint all day (officiating is more a paced run) and Barkley is due for a heart attack...

    What if we want both of them to go down? Like, during the race, Calvin comes in from outta nowhere and clotheslines the crap out of both of them, thereby putting them out of commission until next season? One can dream.... :p

    I agreed with you until I saw Chuck's workouts for this. He truly looks like he has not run any further than to his car and not lifted anything heavier than a beer bottle lately. :)

    It's 3.5 NBA court lengths. That's about 110 yards...I dunno. Perhaps if it was a straight dash, Chuck might have it, but the stopping, bending, and touching the line (I'm assuming it's that or maybe just line touching with your foot)...but anyways, that stop motion is hard on a 300lb man.

    It's the 3rd event of the night...so after the skills and the legends 3 on 3 stuff...right before the 3pt contest (dunk contest is last).

    There has to be a line somewhere...OMG I found one so fast. Bodog has Barkley at a +200 and Bavetta at -300 LOL. I think that means if you bet $100 on Barkley to win and he does, you win $200, and if you bet $300 on Bavetta to win, and Bavetta wins, then you get $100.
