“A 57-foot pitcher in a 60-foot world.”
Nicely stated.
To: DrDeb
Earlier on Tuesday, the President said that he planned to throw his first Presidential pitch high so it'd get to the plate without bouncing, but his control was lacking. He clearly didn't throw a strike like George W. Bush famously did during the 2001 World Series in New York just weeks after Sept. 11. I like this quote too.
I will never, ever forget that blazing strike that pumped courage into the American people after 9/11. It was an amazing event!
Thanks for the ping, DrDeb!

Did he throw like a girl?I saw the video... he threw just like someone that hasn't thrown a ball .... ever. He threw like a little girl...
No shoulder rotation. He turned , then faced forward and flipped it with a PUSH..hahahahahahaha... It wasn't KINDA like a girl throwing... It was EXACTLY like a girl throws.. bwahahahaha... that camera angle that was "allowed" by the white house on the low opposite side NOT SHOWING the pitch was as good as they were going to get.. It was hilarious.
Here is a simulation of the presidential baseball throwing mechanics.. click on this

Were the boos for GWB or Obama? I saw the “pitch” on Greta tonight, and she had more oomph behind her pitch than he did.

Sad. He gave himself a fist pump when he couldn’t even put it over the plate?
Now we know why Michelle is always so angry.

In an interview after he left office, the President was asked, “What was his scariest moment?” He said, “Throwing out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium”. He looks nervous in this video.

the boos were for Obama . . . GWB received more and LOUDER cheers for a TAPED message than Obama received for actually showing up in person!
