Charles BarkleyCharles Barkley, Basketball Hall of Famer, said he will stop gambling, at least for now, less than a week after acknowledging he owed a $400,000 debt to a Las Vegas Strip casino.

“I like to go into Vegas, it’s a fun place, but you know what, I’ve got to stop gambling. That’s the bottom line,” Barkley said. “I am not going to gamble anymore. For right now, the next year or two, I’m not going to gamble.”

“I have no, no money problems whatsoever. Nobody’s coming after me for money,” he said. “I screwed up and didn’t pay them in a significant amount of time. Could they have handled it differently? Yes. But it was my fault.”

“Just because I can afford to lose money doesn’t mean I should do it,” he said.

Here is the video Charles Barkley discussing his gambling issues and his desire to quit:

Oscar Pistorius

Oscar PistoriusOscar Pistorius, 21 years old South African double amputee sprinter, won his appeal on friday and can compete for a place in the Beijing Olympics.

CAS, Court of Arbitration for Sport, Oscar Pistorius is eligible to race against able-bodied athletes, overturning a ban imposed by the IAAF, International Association of Athletics Federations.

CAS said the unanimous ruling goes into effect immediately.

“I am ecstatic,” Pistorius said. “When I found out, I cried. It is a battle that has been going on for far too long. It’s a great day for sport. I think this day is going to go down in history for the equality of disabled people.”

“Oscar will be welcomed wherever he competes this summer,” IAAF president Lamine Diack said. “He is an inspirational man and we look forward to admiring his achievements in the future.”

Curtis WhitleyCurtis Whitley, 39 years old former NFL center, who played for three teams in the 1990s, was found dead at around 6 p.m. Sunday, Mother’s Day, and one day after his 39th birthday, in his trailer in Fort Stockton, Tx., where he’d be living since October.

Sheriff Cliff Harris said Curtis Whitley was found face down in the bathroom by friends who went to check on him after they had not heard from him.

Sheriff Cliff Harris said there was no signs of foul play and no reason to believe the death was a homicide. It is being called an unattended accidental death, pending an autopsy.

Curtis Whitley played for San Diego, Carolina and Oakland from 1992-97 and had two suspensions for violating the league’s drug policy.

Gloria James, Lebron James mother, got into the action again with a little more than four minutes remaining in the first half of the Cavaliers vs Celtics.

James went to the basket and was fouled hard by Paul Pierce. Both players stumbled into the crowd near Gloria James’s seat. Gloria James shouted at Pierce as Garnett stepped in front of her to play peacemaker.

“Sit your [xxxxx] down,” he screamed. Said James after the game, “I used some language I shouldn’t have. I’m glad it wasn’t Mother’s Day.”

Both teams have one more match to go before we know who is the English Primer League Champions. Man United is top of the table although it has the same points as Chelsea, but it edges out because of goal differences between the Goals For (F) and Goals Against (A).

We already know the Real Madrid won the La Liga Champions, though there are 2 more matches to go before the season end.

Do you know that since year 2001,
whenever Real Madrid win, Man United would also win. (2001, 2003, 2007)
whenever Valencia win, Arsenal would also win. (2002, 2004)
whenever Barcelona win, Chelsea would also win. (2005, 2006)

Who will become the Champions of English Premier League?

  • Manchester United (100%, 4 Votes)

Chelsea beat Newscastle 2-0 at St James’s Park on Monday, ensuring the English Premier League battle will continue to the final day of the season.

Michael Ballack scored the first goal and Florent Malouda scored the second goal.

Though both Manchester United and Chelsea have the same points with 1 match to go, Manchester United stay on top due to superior goal differences.

Unless Chelsea win the last match by double digits, which seems quite impossible, the Primer League Championship title is Manchester United to lose.
