- hatgreeting, on 11/24/2008, -0/+14Good for Barkley. He is the best thing that ever happened to the NBA. The first paragraph sums it up:
"Charles Barkley isn't afraid to talk about race, readily explains how dumb college basketball players are for leaving school, and doesn't hesitate in making fun of NBA players when they do something foolish." - deac714, on 11/24/2008, -0/+9Barkley = the opposite of turrible
- Cglass, on 11/24/2008, -1/+7I like charles, he's a funny guy and has some wisdom, but I will not stretch that to say he was the best thing that ever happened to the NBA.
- commiecat, on 11/24/2008, -0/+6I agree, but I do think he's the best thing that ever happened to NBA broadcasting.
- weebs, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4Danny Manning, really? I suppose it's the basketball hall of fame, not just the NBA HOF. Go Jayhawks.

I need to bust out the roms... - jayhawk, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3it's a collegiate hall of fame. in other words, Manning is more deserving than Barkley, fwiw.
FTA:
At the opposite end of the attention-getting spectrum is Manning.
He's been credited with single-handedly leading Kansas to the 1988 national championship, playing one of the greatest games in NCAA tournament history with 31 points, 18 rebounds, five steals and two blocked shots in the title game.
Despite winning the Wooden and Naismith awards along with being a two-time All-American, Manning never liked the attention that came with being part of "Danny and the Miracles." The 6-foot-10 forward shied away from the media, particularly after his career, returning to coach at his alma mater and helping Kansas win a national title last season.
"Awards like this are very special," Manning said. "You have to be a little fortunate to receive them. You have to be with a team that is very unselfish. That is certainly something I had a chance to experience." - Bkaufman, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3Thats just turrible. How Ya gonna go and let Kim Jong III get Nuclear bombs.
- inactive, on 11/24/2008, -1/+3Nominees must have been scarce this year . . . Billy Packer? Come on! Erin Andrews deserves it more than him based completely on her hotness.

"I don't think it was a dirty shot at all" . . . . "He was going for the ball" - TheManikin, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2Billy Packer got inducted? I doubt he attended the ceremony, probably too busy bashing any small-conference school he could think to name.
On the other hand, good to see The Round Mound of Rebound get in. - blackinthmiddle, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2jayhawk, thanks for pointing that out. I realized they talked about his college career, but didn't realize (stupidly) that they were inducting Charles and Danny into the collegiate HOF. Because as a pro, Manning showed a lot of promise, but injuries pretty much plagued his career and there's no way he should make the NBA HOF.
- hatgreeting, on 11/24/2008, -1/+3I can see why Vitale is in there, he is synonymous with bball I guess, but damn if I don't change the channel when he starts blabbing.

And other great words of wisdom from the all knowing Barkley.

- MisterOh, on 11/24/2008, -0/+1.... And still no Chris Mullin and Don Nelson.
- deac714, on 01/01/2009, -0/+1Manning was a force of nature in college at Kansas. His NBA career was not as spectacular but he deserves credit for his college success.
- jimmyisprollyth, on 11/24/2008, -2/+2get the damn ball
- MeatMountain, on 11/24/2008, -4/+4....zzzzz.....bball....zzzzz...
- mo0m0o, on 11/24/2008, -1/+1Thank you for this intersting topic^_^
- MeatMountain, on 11/24/2008, -4/+4If you can't slam with the best, then jam with the rest.
- sizzzzlerz, on 11/24/2008, -2/+1You think Vitale will get his nose out of Mike Krzyzewski's ass long enough to make an induction speech?
