And He Calls Republicans Stupid

Deadbeat

Pay your debts, fatboy. The Round Mound of Rebound is also apparently a degenerate gambler. I figure with those ubiquitous phone commercials he must be pulling in some pretty good coin.

So pay up.
One-time hoops great Charles Barkley will face criminal charges if he doesn't pay off a massive debt to a Las Vegas casino, Sin City prosecutors said yesterday.

Barkley - a compulsive gambler who has admitted that his "stupid habit" has lost him more than $10 million over the years - was sued Wednesday by Wynn Las Vegas, which claims the 13-time NBA All-Star has refused to pay back a $400,000 gambling loan.

The casino said it extended the marker more than seven months ago.

Casino brass also sicced the local prosecutor on the deadbeat hoopster,

Clark County District Attorney David Roger confirmed his office opened an investigation, and said Barkley could face felony theft or bad check charges if he doesn't pay up.

"We prosecute cases like this every day," Roger said. "Mr. Barkley will be treated the same as everybody else."

Barkley, who works as a basketball analyst for the TNT cable channel, will be given up to six months to clear up the debt, according to the DA.

In a radio interview in his home state of Alabama late yesterday, Barkley, who also owns a $3 million Arizona ranch, admitted he owes the dough.
This clown loves flapping his gums saying how dumb Republicans are and how he plans on running for Governor of Alabama. He seems to make a perfect Democrat.
