I understand why the presidential family went to the game - first bro'-in-law Craig Robinson, etc. I don't understand the reaction of Coach Hobbs. Could someone please explain?  Would we give a signed ball to anyone who showed merely to watch us lose? Anyway now we know why folks go there. Masochism. "Obama received a basketball signed by George Washington players and coaches, along with a jersey and shorts. Coach Karl Hobbs thanked Obama and his family for attending the game. "'Students, this is why you come to GW,' Hobbs said." |

"'Students, this is why you come to GW,' Hobbs said." Because he gave a policy speech on the economy in front of a packed hall of students, faculty, and dignitaries? Oh wait, he did that at Georgetown! |

When I saw the headline on the Washington Post, before reading who GWs opponent was, my first reaction was not a very good one

I can't believe that anyone is surprised by this. The Democratic Party has consistently trumpeted its very public involvement in the causes of the lost in society.

Hey, I'm a Dem. but there are some times when lost is very lost.
I voted for him but if he comes to a game to root against us, I will get a petition going.
Really. I can't have that on my conscience.

I think it's more accurate to say that Obama went to an Oregon St. game, not a GW game. He wasn't there to see GW play, that's for sure.

Man the conversation on this on the blue and gray board is so much more interesting and filled with hate and vitriol. With out Elvado any conversation about Obama just pales in comparison
