Is LeBron James Really Retiring From Basketball? The Truth About His “Decision”
Charles Barkley is baring it all—one hot fruit of the loom at a time.
Indeed, the sports analyst admitted that he scorched all his underwear at the height of his basketball career, and he doesn’t regret the decision.
“Yeah, I realized that underwear was not a necessity,” Charles, 62, explained in the Nov. 3 episode of the Manningcast podcast. “I burned all of my underwear about 30 years ago. It was a big fire, too. I’m always going commando.”
But despite his confession, hosts Peyton Manning and Eli Manning decided to give the former athlete, who retired from basketball in 2000 after playing 16 seasons, a special gift: a pair of underwear that had their faces on the back.
“I was planning to mail it to you. I’m sorry,” Eli, 44, teased while holding up the white briefs. “I didn’t know the story about you wearing underwear before having these made, but can I still send these to you?”
