It's not baseball, but here's a fun video link and story about Barack Obama's basketball days.I love the reminiscence from the guy who used to play pickup games with him. It's obviously intended to be complimentary, but the translation is: "he really had no inside game, he really had no outside game, he really didn't have any ball handling skills, but he acted like a leader and often brought the ball up the court anyway."
Anyone who has played pickup basketball knows a guy like this (i.e. no skillz, but who still always wants to hold the rock). I like Obama an awful lot, but I'm glad the primaries are still months away, because it may take me that long to convince myself to vote for a chucker.
