There is no way in hell ESPN would allow Charles Barkley the carte blanche, that he has with TNT.

I mean McAfee can basically say and do whatever he wants. Charles can have it too it just depends on how badly ESPN wants him and how steadfast he is in wanting to say what he wants to say. He doesn’t use the language that McAfee uses, but he does say exactly what he wants and what he believes and doesn’t care about a network or a producer’s narrative.
