Charles Barkley

Charles Barkley is an American retired professional basketball player. He reached the zenith of his career in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when he played for the Philadelphia 76ers and the Phoenix Suns. He was famous not only for his skills, but his often-outrageous attitude (he was once fined $10,000 for spitting on a fan). Since his retirement, he's had a successful career as a sports analyst for TNT. He recently announced his interest in running for the governorship of Alabama.
