This is a bold declaration. Of course Barkley said he would rethink it, but I wondered how serious it would be if he followed up with it. The Lakers play Sunday against the Hornets. I think they lose that game. I don’t think 0-82 is going to happen, but Barkley runs the risk of possibly not eating for a full week.

That could kill him. I would go insane if I couldn’t eat for that long.

Good luck, Chuck. If you do go with this, you are a foolish man. But a wise man at the same time.
