Charles Barkley pays kid's tuition

Big ups to Charles for feeding money into a student's pocket instead of a slot machine.

    Hey Sir Charles - I'm about a quarter mill in education debt myself, how about sending some cheddar this way?

    This is what I talked about in my first blog on this site(which wasn't but a few days ago). When a person in a better place finacially then us helps someone is a great thing. CB knew how hard it was to pay a college tuition and the kid wasn't a ball player or something. He was just some kid who had aspirations of going to Temple. This helps me have high hopes of future athletes help other people in need. God bless you Charles Barkley.

    I met Sir Charles in Phoenix a few years ago which was a real highlite for me being that he is my favorite b-baller of all time. I just have to say that he is a class act who is not a-hole to fans. I have no problem believing that he would do something like this. He seems to be a great guy who I enjoy just as much commentating as I did watching him play in the nba.

    Very nice, though methinks there's a hidden motive behind this: Charles Barkley Lobbies for Position in Obama Administration
