Cause he's freakin hilarious in a business where no one else really is.

This. Dan Patrick wrote a book of sports quotes called "The Quotable ESPN" and Barkley had enough quotes to fill the introduction.

Patrick Orly is an idiot if he can't see the appeal.

Charles was always told that he was too fat to play basketball. He's earned the right to talk back.

He has a good agent. Because he sure isn't funny or interesting. And maybe sometimes he should think before speaking his mind.

I think the fact that you don't like him says more about you than everyone else actually liking him.

Not you. The webman character who claims that Chuck's agent was the cause of his success.

he is funny as hell, he says what he thinks, and he can take it as well as he dishes it out

plus he was an awesome basketball player who played with the same attitude he still has in the broadcast booth - listening to him invokes some nostalgia from people who enjoyed the way he played

I know. I just wanted the record to show that I am NOT mad, and I did it with a cute girl.

Charles Barkely does not follow the political correctness rules that have been forced down our throats since the 1980's. He tell it like it is and he doesn't give a shite if anyone gets offended or not.

He has more truth in him than Obama and Bill Clinton ever did have. He is funny and does it with a laidback style. Charles ain't afraid of anyone or any establishment. He says what the politicians are afraid to say. You know where you stand with the round mound of rebound.
