TNT basketball analyst Charles Barkley has been rough on the Golden State Warriors.
After winning two NBA titles in three years, Warriors star Stephen Curry revealed Thursday how he'd like to get payback on Barkley.
It all started when Curry was asked a peculiar question involving Aaron Rodgers, Justin Timberlake and Barkley ahead of the American Century Championship, which began Friday.
When asked to pick one to caddie, one to play with and one to do the "Carlton" dance with, Curry said, per ASAP Sports: "I would put Chuck on the bag. He's talked a lot of smack about me and the Warriors [for] years. So I would load up my bag with some bricks pre-round and definitely put him through that torture for four hours."
Curry added that there is no bad blood between the two.
"No, it's all TV. He's a great personality and knows how to get a headline. And sometimes you don't know if he's being real or not.
"But every time I seen him off the grid, he's been great to my family, to me as well. So I take everything he says, literally everything he says, with a grain of salt. But he's a legend."
Milk bad, paint good
As a kid, Arizona Cardinals Coach Bruce Arians drank paint before playing neighborhood football games.
As relayed by The Ringer's Kevin Clark, Arians, 64, told the bizarre tale of twice consuming paint in a Sirius XM interview.
"Bruce Arians said on Sirius today that he had to get his stomach pumped twice when he was younger from drinking paint. That's something," Clark tweeted Wednesday.
"Bruce Arians believed as a kid that drinking paint made him harder to tackle in neighborhood football games so he did exactly that. Amazing."
Asked to elaborate during an ESPN SportsCenter appearance Wednesday, Arians explained that he was "2 or 3" years old and "allergic to milk." His father had told his older brother that drinking milk would help him grow "big and strong," but since the younger Arians couldn't consume milk, he thought paint was a good substitute.
He then said he thought the green paint was ice cream the second time he tried it.
What's in a kiss?
An arbitrator ruled American runner Gil Roberts, who won a gold medal in the 1,600-meter relay at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, "met his burden of proof" to show kissing his girlfriend caused him to fail a March drug test.
On Friday, Scooby Axson of Sports Illustrated noted Roberts, 28, said he was "frequently and passionately" kissing his girlfriend in the days before the test and she had been taking a sinus infection medication, which he said caused the failed test. The final arbitration ruling cleared him of wrongdoing.
Johanna Gretschel of FloTrack noted the runner had tested positive for probenecid, which can be used as a masking agent for steroids and other performance-enhancing substances. It's also found in Moxylong, the medication his girlfriend, Alex Salazar, took during a trip to India.
Dr. Pascal Kintz, who testified as Roberts' expert witness in the arbitration case, said the "low concentration" of the drug found in the runner's system would not provide drug-masking effects, according to the final ruling.
