Itβs been said that everything is bigger in Texas, and Charles Barkley couldnβt agree more. The former NBA player, who has never been afraid to speak his mind, has spent nearly a decade dissing the women of San Antonio. He has called them overweight and saying the city is a βgold mine for Weight Watchers.β
You can watch a compilation of some of his comments here:

Well, Barkley was back in San Antonio last week covering the NCAA Final Four and championship game Monday and rather than trying to bury the hatchet, he doubled down on his comments about the cityβs female residents.
βYβall got some big b*tches here,β he said while speaking to the crowd at the Capital One JamFest concert in San Antonio.
A clip of Barkleyβs words on X has received over 400,000 views, and we probably donβt have to tell you that the comment section is lit.
Some were ready to call the retired pro baller out for his inability to see that heβs not exactly at his fighting weight.
βAinβt that the pot calling the kettle blackβ¦.β wrote someone.
Others admired his convictions for sticking to his guns.
βHeβs standing on business,β someone else wrote.
Another commenter suggested he might need to make his way to βAlamo Cityβ to get a look at the ladies for himself.
βBooks flight to San Antonio,β another wrote.
But donβt worry, the women of San Antonio got their chance to clap back with a hilarious parody of the βPop the Balloonβ dating show featuring Barkley as the bachelor. The ladies wasted no time popping their balloons to let Barkley know that they were just not feeling him taking shots at everything from his looks to his golf swing.
βLetβs be real, you donβt even have any rings, so I canβt trust that youβre going to give me one if you donβt even have any,β said one of the ladiesΒ in a not-so-subtle jab at the fact that the NBA Hall of Famer never won a championship in his professional career.
It looks like the war between Charles Barkley and the women of San Antonio is still on.
