While discussing Jason Collins’ passing, Charles Barkley live on ESPN: “We live in a homophobic society … anybody who think we ain’t got a bunch of gay players in all sports, they’re just stupid.”

The only King Charles I acknowledge. 🫡
Bars, Chuckster.
What a brave thing to say in front of a mostly misogynistic and homophobic audience. Good on him for speaking the truth.Â
There are many lgbtqia+ athletes who still have to hide who they are in order to keep their careers in 2026.
Ok, Sir Charles, tell them. And War Eagle!

He’s definitely right
I don’t even go here, but man it’s refreshing to see something like this when it comes to sport. I only wish motorsport had more trailblazers like Jason Collins. Everything I’ve heard/read about him the last few days has been very touching
Yup
The round mound of rebound speaks the truth.
Watch Maga tears flooding X-Truth .
Those who played interscholastic or intercollegiate sports and says that they didn’t have any lgtbqa+ teammate is either lying to us or to themselves
It’s still a trip hearing good political takes from *Charles fucking Barkley*.
And that is another reason why I wear my Barkleys proudly
Wow! That’s woke AF! Good on him!
“You don’t have to live in the shadows… your life is so much better when you just show up as your true self” 🥺❤️
I hope this planted a small seed of thought to those who don’t understand or have opposing views. Or, I hope someone who needs to hear this, heard it and it helps them in life.
This whole conversation and all input was thoughtful, respectful, and just beautiful.
Charles Barkley for president
Respect to Sir Charles.
I’ve always loved these guys and I’m not a big basketball fan. Respect to em all.
Okay- he has a pass to say whatever he wants about San Antonio women now
