Still can't forgive Clinton for Arkansas. You always pull for the alma mater.

Here's the full context of the comment:
The question is at 3:05 - Obama seems to be saying "Come on, I'm not going to answer that."

MAybe somebody should invite President Obama to the Depaul game on March 7? Hoya Blue? HHC? He probably doesn't know what he is missing. Bush 43 was a HUGE baseball fan. He owned the Texas Rangers. He showed up twice to Nats game and threw the first ball out, then was taken back to the bubble almost immediately. Everyone wants Obama to show up at the 9:30 Club and Ben's Chili Bowl every weekend. Not gonna happen. Presidents have very full schedules, and that doesn't include the occasional crisis in Sangala. The idea that he will take in a game is delusional. EDIT - www.theonion.com/content/node/29079 explains a lot.

Obama represented a south side district in the state senate; obviously he had to be a White Sox fan. It also gives him something to talk about with Mayor Daley. I'm sure it had nothing to do with: a) living on the South Side; b) the team winning a WS in the past century; or c) wanting more out of his fan status than carping about horrible personnel decisions on internet message boards.

The idea that he will take in a game is delusional. Really? So the president is going to be busy? That's some interesting insight. Could you explain that a bit more for some of us.

Since folks are suppsed to root for Alma Mom, surely the way to get The Man to the 'booth is to schedule Clumbia.

Agreed he'll be way too busy to make it to a game this season - first hundred days is a busy time for all Presidents, especially so for Obama. Would be cool, assuming he's settled in enough, if he made it to the Duke home game next season.
