There’s a very important lesson to be learned from this official White House photo.
Especially if they’re old and fat. Especially if they’re playing basketball against their boss. Especially if that boss is the President of the United States. Especially if the boss brings a basketball emblazoned with his own logo.

FoxNew's Major Garrett stuffs the shot.. and gives BHO a facial. BHO's answers come out of both sides of mouth. Confucious say; He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.
urghh, i dont know basketball lingo, so that first sentence just sounded so wrong
Sorry, New Name, insensitive on my part,,, it was meant to be more sports minded humor than substantive. The jest was that Major did a good job with the interview... the rest was just sportstalk fluff and perhaps not as humorous as I hoped.
It may soon become mandatory for the NBA to use the Obamaball.
Any chance of a game w/ tea baggers? You think CupCake might get a hard foul in the paint? I hear all the bangers are advised CupCake’s ego bruises easily, so if he hit’s the rim it’s good! It's called deficit scoring.
That guy "guarding" him has more chins than the Hong Kong phone book!
NO WAY! That cannot be real ... or is it. I feel like we are living in an Ayn Rand novel. The person who occupies the White House cannot be real. He is a parody, like a villian in one of Rand's novels.
On a serious note, he is a manchild. No adult with a somewhat normal ego would play with a basketball with his own logo.
I think it says Obama'08. Looks like leftovers from campaign merchandise they couldn't give away.
Nothing but nuts.
Looks like we've got the picture for the next Newsweek cover -- since I hear they're now doing sports themed covers for political leaders.
Potential Newsweek Headline: Obama on the Economy: "Hey, I'm working on it. Now watch this shot guys."
His own logo on a basketball? LOL!! You just can't make this sh*t up, folks!
The Narcissist In Chief is at it again!
Logo golf balls are one thing, but basketballs? I'm with you on this one DJ.
BTW, if Obama wants to tee it up on the links, I'll take him down any day. I'm sure he would be game for some match play, & I could see him using a "foot wedge" like the judge in "Caddyshack" to improve his lie. No dunking on slow, fat, white guys to put the ball in the hole, you need actual skill to do so on the golf course.
