Barack Obama could soon be adding baseball broadcaster to his résumé. With the president scheduled to throw out the first pitch Tuesday in St. Louis for the All-Star Game at Busch Stadium, Fox Sports has made a formal request to interview the president during the game, and the White House is considering it.

What would a lefty like Hussein know about America's game?

$10 says somebody will hand him commentary to recite.

Never, never, never, have I seen such a TV hound.

He is struck blind with the coming of "The One"---It's him! He's IT! Wonder how often he lifts the chin with eyes half closed (you've seen the pic)waiting for the heavenly beam of light to come down.

Tim McCarver may be just enough of a d*ck to ask Obama about his birth certificate while he’s in the booth.

My initial reaction was “give me a break.”

Then, I realized I’d put money down that he flubs it up and reveals (further) what a fool he is. He tries too hard to be “funny” and cool; I bet he boffs this if he does do it.

You object to hearing him make a fool of himself?

Are you a supporter of his?

I’m expecting him to comment on the condition of the ‘pitch’ and stickey wickets.

I’d watch only if he made the pitch at the same time as giving the interview.

I object to him interrupting or being associated with something that represents America like baesball.

Asking every Freeper who attends the game to “Boo” loudly when Der Fuhrer is introduced.

Is Obama a baseball fan?

Will he have TOTUS with him so he can do proper color commentary?

Yeah, after his having been elected President we can't have him upgrade to sportscaster.

He could snake his way into talk radio after that.
