NASCAR’s Dale Earnhardt Jr. Says Charles Barkley has Challenged Him to a Race

TNT analyst Charles Barkley is a favorite on TV chiefly for his propensity to fire from the hip in interviews.

As a result, Barkley's mouth has gotten him into hot water both in the past, and the present.

Barkley's bravado likely led to him challenging NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. to a race in their upcoming meeting.

According to a tweet from Dale Earnhardt Jr. earlier this week....
I'm meeting Charles Barkley this Thursday. He challenged me to a race. I got no further details. This'll be fun. 2:54 PM - 12 May 2014

Tune in tomorrow....
