Charles Barkley's Golf Swing No Longer Funny


A year ago, replaying those first few YouTube clips of the Round Mound of Rebound's butchery on the golf course seemed like they'd be hilarious for eternity. No more.
Charles Barkley's second time hosting "Saturday Night Live" put an end to the merriment, when he spoofed the "Haney Project" series he had on The Golf Channel. Yes, his swing was "terrible" to start with.
But he didn't need to exaggerate it by sweeping a broom in the miniature kitchen SNL set up, did he?
Off the cuff, no out-of-shape, retired and unrepentent pro athlete is funnier than Barkley. Just like his golf swing before the planet learned how "terrible" it was; spontaneity is the key him.
