It’s no secret the disdain that Charles Barkley has for Skip Bayless and his outlandish comments at times but on Thursday we found out just how much Barkley really hates him. I think it’s safe to say that most people feel that Bayless is a joke who is nothing more than a “shock jock” who will say anything to keep the attention on him. Barkley has been a critic of Bayless for many years now and it seems to only have gotten worse with Bayless’ move to FS1 and hosting “The Undisputed” with Shannon Sharpe.
On Thursday, Barkley was a guest on The Dan Patrick Show. Towards the end of the show, he suggested a way to get Patrick’s ratings up in the future. He would kill Bayless on air.
Barkley: “You know what we should do for ratings? If I get a disease and I’m gonna die, how about you get Skip Bayless in here and I’ll kill him live on national television.”
Patrick: “I like it. Like pay-per-view.”
Barkley: “No, no, no. Just get him in here. Only when I know Imma die….Cause I just want to get Skip Bayless in a room one time and beat him like a dog.”
Patrick: “So you’d kill him.”
Barkley: “Yes. Only if I knew I was gonna die. Not if I’m gonna live, cause I don’t wanna go to prison. Cause like Mahorn say, ‘they would love you in prison.’”
I’m not sure Barkley would want to spend his final days in prison but admit it, as you read this, you pictured him killing Bayless and it made you smile.
