  • “Hey, I can outrun Dick Bavetta right now,” Charles Barkley told Marv Albert during an early season TNT broadcast.
    “I believe Dick would beat you in a footrace,” Marv Albert countered.
    “I can outrun Dick Bavetta right now, Marv.”
    And that's how it all began.
    By the 2007 NBA All-Star break had arrived, the stage had been set. Wedged between the Skills Competition and the 3-Point Shootout, 43-year-old NBA Hall of Famer Charles Barkley faced 67-year-old NBA referee Dick Bavetta in a footrace. In the end, a hot dogging Barkley won by a hair, two blackjack hands (aka $50,000) was donated to the Boys & Girls club, and Barkley & Bavetta shared a kiss that's left basketball fans flummoxed for over a decade.
    For what it's worth, Complex.com published a story on the Barkley-Bavetta showdown in 2017 and provided TNT host Ernie Johnson's take on the kiss itself:
    "Here’s the deal. If you know Dick Bavetta at all, you’ve probably been kissed by Dick Bavetta. I’ve been kissed by Dick Bavetta. He’s that kind of a guy. He comes up to you after he hasn’t seen you for a while and he gives you a kiss. No, that doesn't surprise me at all."

    I'm only 30 seconds in and can't contain my laughter. Between "Krispy Kreme" Barkley, question marks as his weight, and then Shaq with his slot machine shoes, guaranteed to make you win.

    This is just a reminder that even though Barkley was long retired and out of shape, he was still a pro athlete, who can outrun many of us regular dudes. This was the Scalabrine Challenge before Scalabrine.

    Research it. It's called respect and admiration to love one another. Nothing gay or anything, but, forming a bond. All of the known world greets their loved 1s.

      Right, these guys need to get over it. That was a genuinely nice moment. Old people kiss people. Chuck was nice and kissed him back, didn't make a big deal about it. Like you said, forming a bond, showing camaraderie.

    • @JamesJiansen

      Right, people these days are quick to call something gay or sus or probably sus as hell themselves. Chuck is secure enough of his own masculinity to kiss and show love for another man.
