Well at least GW could honestly name Sammy, 'cause Bush was the one who traded him from the Rangers to the White Sox!
If you hitched ride on Air Force 1 you would take Cortisone shots for a week and pop two Vicodin three hours beforehand just so you could throw a strike. LOL
You do after all have the power of the White House at your disposal. LOL

Truth is, he, like most people, just isn't much of an athlete, and no amount of fawning by the media will change that fact.
(For the record, I'm a girl, and my dad would've either broken my shooting/throwing arm or denied paternity had he seen me shoot or throw like Obama, even when I was 7 years old. My dad takes his sports seriously.)
My question is, when it's so painfully obvious that the man (?) has no athletic skill, why doesn't the media just slink away from the issue and stop pretending?
I know they don't care if they look like morons in their slobbering love affair with Obama, but this is beyond moronic to keep treating this wuss as an "athlete." It would be better if they just ignored him when he shows up in his baseball cap and mom jeans.
They might keep the small audience they still have. :)
But Bush knows baseball inside and out, every player, stats, family stories. He's a walking baseball encyclopedia, and the players knew it. (And he could pitch fast ball strikes!)
That's why the media completely ignored him. Couldn't risk anyone's seeing who he really was as they presented their phony template that he was a brain-dead, evil man.
What annoys me is that I don’t care if any of them play,or even like,sports.
In Kerry’s case he should have just said he didn’t follow baseball. Period.
As far as Obama and his basketball,well,I don’t follow basketball so wouldn’t know a good throw from a bad one.
There’s so damn much wrong in this country that it boggles my mind,and Obama heads the list of wrongs.
Your last line is on the money. Obama is #1 on the list of what's wrong with the country, and his lying about being a sports fan just makes it worse. Why does he have to lie about everything???
Why does he have to lie about everything???”
Because he’s a pathological liar. He truly believes he is telling the truth.
Frightening,huh?
Or saying Kurt Schilling is a Yankees fan.
Yeah-——another good one.
Frightening, and potentially fatal - for innocent Americans.
That’s two things.....both correct....LOL
If you discover why the media wants to promote Obama as some sort of Michael Jordan-Walter Payton-Harold Baines-Greg Maddux combination who has deigned to rule we lowly peasants, please let me know.
Maybe the media just knows nothing about what constitutes a good athlete. Or maybe the media just plain lies.
First part - not likely. Second part - without a shade of doubt.
And they don't seem to care who knows they're lying either. I mean........did they really expect people not to SEE that this guy is an uncoordinated doofus?
I know they think we're all stupid, but really!
Da good ol days
Thats two things.....both correct....LOL

Nah, he's simply the not-so-brilliant narcissist who just happens to be President of The Country with 57 States.
I think somebody makes it up for him...
