Barkley Calls Exec Producer a P*ssy On Air

It’s no secret how we feel about Charles Barkley here.

We love him, and his antics.  His honesty knows no boundaries.

And he’s funny as hell.

Last night’s Game 6 match up between the Orlando Magic and Cleveland Cavaliers signalled the end of TNT’s broadcasting season, and as is customary, the ending of the show featured the obligatory “thank yous” to the production staff.

Enter Sir Charles.

At one point Barkley refers to cohost Kenny Smith as “numbnuts” (still one of my all-time fave putdowns), and eventually uses the classic “coughing fit” to call executive producer Tim Kiely a…um…slang word for genitalia (p***y).

Here’s the clip, via Youtube…

It’s pretty obvious Barkley is just screwing around, to me anyway.  Judging by Reggie Miller’s stunned reaction though, who knows…and who cares.

Please Charles, don’t you ever change.
