Obama and the ASG
What did you guys think of Obama throwing out the first pitch? I didn't mind the ChiSox jacket - he's a real fan, so that was OK. Now...before I go on I want to say - I go to work in flip flops, shorts and a golf shirt - as most of you know I am hardly buttoned up with regards to my appearance. The last time I wore a tie, my son asked why I was "wearing a long string on my neck?!?" BUT....despite that, for some reason I didn't like Obama in jeans. Just felt like he should have been in something a little nicer. Doesn't need to be a tux or anything, but jeans?? C'mon man.

I didn't mind the clothes, but I did mind the throw. For a guy who is supposed to be an athlete that throw was terrible. A big joke.
Yes, agreed the throw was pretty weak. He was talking to Wake before the game asking him to about the knuckleball grip, I think he should have gone that route.
I'd imagine his throw would have been better if he wasn't wearing a bulletproof vest under the jacket.
A long string on your neck, Jay? Were you wearing one of those cowboy shoestring ties?
No just a regular tie. He had never seen me wear one, and he just looked at me with this "what the he'll" face.
Saw some of the interview in the booth.....it is saying something when there is a group of 3 people, and out of those 3, I have the warmest feelings for Obama!
I have no problem with the jeans. And also I have no problem with the jacket (however, what if I become president? Would I be allowed to wear a Chief Wahoo jacket?)
About the throw - I did hear that he never played baseball growing up. I'm not sure how one can be called an "athlete" and not play baseball - but that explains a lot.
Forget the birth certificate - should one of the qualifications of our President be: the President must play baseball(or softball) growing up? Discuss.
