Presidential first pitches
Originally uploaded by afagen
The Washington Times is reporting that the President will not throw out the first pitch on Monday at the Nationals’ Home Opener, breaking a decades-old tradition. I was really hoping that the President would be there on Monday, but it looks like he’s got better things to do.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that you can still buy four seats together for Opening Day? And those seats are just past third base? And that the President appearing before a crowd of five or six hundred people sends the wrong message?
C’mon, Mr. President, I won’t be the only one there, you can still come on out, I hear you’ve got a helluva curveball.
