the only thing on TV last night more enjoyable than the Lakers losing again was a brief exchange in which Kenny Smith and Ernie Johnson explained the difference between "your" and "you're" to Charles Barkley. the whole thing began when TNT put up a clip of a woman holding a sign that read "Charles your (sic) right! Ginooooooobili" under the title "Fellow Auburn Alum" and with "your" circled in red. apparently unaware than anything was wrong with the sign, Sir Charles steadfastly insisted that there was nothing wrong until Kenny Smith wrote both spellings out on a piece of paper for him and Ernie Johnson (pointing at Barkley) said , "Charles, this is your jacket. But you're an idiot." Sir Charles's response? He just laughed and said, "No disrespect to Auburn. But I didn't go to too many classes there."
