Fans probably DO point that out. TNT will NEVER point that out, b/c Charles brings viewers to the post-game show and the telecasts in general. The qualities that cause people to watch Charles on TNT are his celebrity, his outspoken opinions, and his humor. If he was better prepared, he would be right more often, but the ratings would probably be unaffected.

So, please explain to Charles why he SHOULDN'T be lazy. :-)

Ratings mean Jack Sh!t. Mostl knowledgeable fans are getting something to eat, using the bathroom, or doing something else other than listen to Charles pontificate at half time. Put an knowledgeable and informed announcer with real insights and a good personality and I'm quite sure that they would have many more people watching the than those who currently watch the Charles Barkley dumbass halftime show.
