Shooting Hoops With Obama

More at http://www.theuptake.org
The President can hold his own when playing "PIG" with the UCONN Huskies, the undefeated women's basketball national champions.

Maya Moore, this year’s winner of the John R. Wooden Award as the women's college basketball player of the year, wrote after her visit:

Wow what an experience! I am still in shock that my teammates and I were able to be in the same atmosphere as some of the greatest leaders in history. As we were taking a tour of the rooms of the White House, like the famous Red Room, I felt a deeper appreciation for the founders of this nation. We truly do live in an amazing country and actually walking where some of our great leaders have walked gave me chills! Meeting President Obama was as enjoyable as advertised, and he left an inspiring impression on us all. The way he took the time to shake hands, take pictures, and talk to everyone showed his humility and genuine personality. The way he sacrificed some extra time out of his day to shoot a few shots with us made me remember what life is all about. It is about investing in people and having faith that the love you impart on them will somehow make the world better than it was. Thank you to President Obama and everyone who made this event possible!

PunkMike... Wtf are you doing? You disagree with Obama and you don't like him as a president... and yet you go to youtube and search "Obama Playing Basketball" just to go bitch and whine about how you think he's doing a shitty job? Do you know how much shit was left behind from the 8 years Bush was in office? All that is on Obama's shoulders now.. It seems like you're blaming Obama for Bush's mistakes.

@agsmallticket i think kobe earns 10 times the salary of obama, so shooting faders is expected of him. thats why he gets the big check.

if our president wash't black, he wouldn't be doing this

[agsmallticket]

they scream when he makes a simple jumpshot, lmao. total kiss ass. Kobe shooting a fade away with 2 guys in his face doesnt mean anything anymore i guess.
