Excuse me, Jack, I apologize in advance for this:
Hedge you are so completely full of shit on this NON-issue, that there is not one thing you've posted that remotely approaches the truth. You are so blindly full of ignorant hate, that you can't even tell the truth about what you "heard" and "saw". I will ask anyone in this forum to back up your claim that they heard 75% boos, or even that the ball bounced. There may have been a few scattered boos - I assume there were, although I can't honestly say I heard any. Wearing a White Sox Jacket would surely bring about a couple, and I would assume there would be a few Budweiser swilling rednecks that share your personal ignorant agenda that would have booed just for the "fun" of it.
The ball didn't bounce. There weren't very many boos that could be heard, if any, but 75% is just freaking STUPID. I saw the replay from two angles, Pujols caught it. Obama never played organized baseball, so pitching with that kind of pressure when you certainly haven't practiced it would be tough. He got it there. Your talk about throwing a strike is probably pretty arguable, but not important. Not many do it, and frankly you don't sound like the type that would.
Skulnik might back you up, because that's what he does, but I ask anyone else in here, do you agree with what Hedge says? And if you do, you are simply either wrong, or full of shit.
I think Fox's coverage of the event was great. Honoring real heroes with the ex-Presidents was terrific. Honoring the great players in St. Louis history was cool (although I am partial there). It blended well, and it was a nice night. Obama was good in the booth, he was great interacting with the players and everyone, coming across as real and knowledgeable and it made for a nice night in America - unless you hate him.
You hate the man, can't be remotely objective, and are simply stupid in your comments about this - not to mention completely full of shit.
Other than that, nice ASSessment. :sadwave:
