Perhaps the Judge Said Don't Leave Town?

A bit of background here. Charles Barkley, a former Phoenix Suns basketball player, is from Leeds Alabama of all places. Apparently the people there are fond of him. There is even a Charles Barkley Drive/Avenue or something along those lines in Leeds named after him too.

On December 31, Barkely was arrested in Scottsdale for drunk driving. At the time he was arrested, he made some graphic comments to the arresting officer about where he was going and what would be happening once he got there. Perhaps he is quite familiar with the the woman who was leaving explicit texts on my phone?

I don't really have any opinions about this story. What I found the most interesting was the comments below the story, misspellings and all. After all, Alabama is the only place I know where a story about a retired basketball star can spark a conversation about the University Alabama/Auburn University rivalry and throw in a bible verse at the same time.
