The release was a little high so it sailed on him but in the long run and with a little coaching he could probably strike out the nationals first three batters, which I guess isn’t saying much…

Here is the best that I’ve seen:

For the last week Obama's been doing an end zone dance after his healthcare Hail Mary touchdown. He must have missed the words of the old coach: "If you get into the end zone, act like you've been there before."

His "first pitch" was a sissy throw...

'nuf said.

At least Barry didn't pass out. I am not embarrassed at all as Zero is not my President.

Barak: One of those kids called me a Mary.

Elaine: A what?

Barak: I was throwing a baseball and for some reason I went like this. (Barak stretches out his arms in a ballet motion) They called me a Mary.

What? I wouldn't let this guy stay in the game for me if I was coaching a little league team with eight players. He sucked!!! It looked like an EEPHUS pitch.

Decent job? Is that you, Mr. Gibbs?

“That was pathetic. I am stunned he would humiliate himself like that.”

Well, to be fair, they don’t play baseball in his country...so he never had a chance to learn...

That’s last year’s pitch in the dirt, right? With the catcher in front of the plate?

I’d bet that Sarah Palin could throw a better pitch.

Obama, the renowned basketball player, also has a very poor release on his jump shot. Far too much snap and push in his release rather than the primarily, smooth wrist action of the better shooters.

They just had to put him own playing horse with Clark Kellogg during the Final Four games Saturday, and his poor shooting form was apparent to any who’ve played the game at any level.
