Caption Obama throwing a softball

[massgopguy]

Remember in Revenge of the Nerds, they adjusted Lamont's javelin to compensate for his “limp wristed” delivery?

[a fool in paradise]

And to think that the MSM created “the wimp factor” in describing George HW Bush...

[Lucky9teen]

It almost/barely hit the dirt. Some are saying it actually bounced up into the catchers glove...but it’s hard to tell without slowing down the video....which was played on FoxNews this AM, but I can’t find a video anywhere (except for the Fox Sports, which was a terrible angle).

[sniper63]

As queer as a football bat....

He throws pretty good.....for a girl.

Fox Sports, which was a terrible angle

Fox's video was pure politics.

I'd be more embarrassed to have that camera angle than I would to bounce the pitch! Talk about predicting failure...

Not one of the state run media Bozos dared compare it to Mr. Bush’s toss.

I just looked at the pictures again. Do you know if Barry is a southpaw? If he is, that explains why he is throwing with his left hand (poorly, like a sissy).

If he isn’t, then maybe he’s trying my girly-throw trick, because he’s definitely throwing left. That being the case, his bad pitch is deliberate! And THAT being the case, he’s DELIBERATELY making fun of America’s Pastime!!!

GO BACK TO KENYA MR PRESIDENT! WE GOT YOU ALL FIGURED OUT!

[calex59]

He certainly is! And what’s he doing wearing a Sox jacket — I thought he was a Cubs fan!!! TAKE OFF THAT JACKET MISTER PRESIDENT! YOU ARE NOT A FAN OF MY BELOVED WHITE SOX!

This is easy enough to figure out. His handlers knew he was going to be booed so they put that jacket on him and it gave them the excuse as to why he was booed.

It wasn't because Americans despise the guy, it was because he wore a White Sox jacket, don't ya know!

[DieHard the Hunter]

> It wasn’t because Americans despise the guy, it was because he wore a White Sox jacket, don’t ya know!

(grin!)

He’s going to be the equivalent of The Goat curse for the Sox if they aren’t careful. No more letting him wear the jacket, I say.

[Busywhiskers]

Wasn’t quite as bad as John Kerry but Obama still looked like he had never thrown a baseball before.

[SevenofNine]

Hey MONK I saw ALL Star game so unconfortrable during the game they have him do some play by play OMGGGG it make me cringe that most unconfortable thing I ever saw on TV IN MY LIFE

Someone needs to photoshop Michelle onto Opossum's throwing hand. Caption:

Where did his grey hair go?

Thanks for the photos in #44; ROTFL about the comparison!

[Mr. Mojo]

There's little doubt that before Obama would agree to tossing out the first pitch several conditions had to be met. ....and making sure that the cameras would only show his throwing motion and not where the ball ended up was of primary importance. Of course Fox happily complied.

By contrast, check out George Bush's first pitch at the World Series right after 9/11. First of all he throws like a man. Secondly the camera angles are where they should be -- as they are in actual games. And lastly, it was a perfect strike.
