Barack Obama Too Lazy To Call Baseball Team

by Riley Waggaman  11:48 am November 2, 2010

Such a MuslimYes, be FURIOUS. Barack Obama is not even a little bit busy today. He is probably just blowing bubbles in the Rose Garden or maybe looking for animal shapes in the clouds.

Do presidents still do that crap? Last one I remember doing it was Nixon.

My God – that article was written at 08:20 – they aren't even back from the bath houses yet. It takes a while to wash all that champagne out of your beard without washing out the "Just For Men".

Dissing the SF Gays is what Barry's all about.

Gratuitous World November 2, 2010 at 12:00 pm

maybe he doesn't want to be associated with those much despised 'San Francisco values' of entrepeneurship, acceptance, innovation, timely hitting and good starting pitching.

Lascauxcaveman November 2, 2010 at 12:13 pm

You'd think he'd at least want to rub in that HUGE TEXAS CHOKE.

Hahaha! Suck it Texas sports fans. God loves San Francisco more than you. Think about it.

The city of gay guys who dress like cowboys beat the city of closeted gay guys who dress like cowboys.

As long as he phones that fuckhead Dubya and yells "Mission Accomplished" real loud several times, I'll be satisfied.

obfuscator2 November 2, 2010 at 12:07 pm

if he'd already called them, the story would be: why is the president wasting time calling the SAN FRANCISCO giants on election day???? this is blatant pandering to the radical fabulous homosectional cabal that
obamar is in cahoots with.

Was there baseball last night?

Lucidamente1 November 2, 2010 at 12:10 pm

Barry's getting ready to celebrate Diwali this Friday, and doesn't have time for such foolishness. Also, he has to give the ACORN sleeper cells their final instructions to throw today's election, the end.

San Francisco values for the win?

Who put the World Series so close to Election Day, anyway?

No really, who did? The playoffs and series used to called the "October Classic" and over by Halloween. But then, hockey and basketball are going in to June these days; I suppose soon the World Series will be around Thanksgiving.

Bud Selig. Added in a Central division and a wild card slot in 94 which meant a divisional series on top of a league pennant series and then World Series, which increased the length of the postseason.

When asking "why is this baseball thing so stupid?" Selig is a safe answer.

JMPEsq November 2, 2010 at 1:59 pm

But even two years ago, the Series was over soon enough that our victory parade was on Haloween; and that was including one game that took two nights because of rain.

MistaEko November 2, 2010 at 2:20 pm

Largely depends on how fast the divisional and league pennants finish, and usually they do finish fast. You guys knocked out the dodgers and brewers pretty quick, right? But 09 the Yankees took the phils and angels to six games.

I think rests in-between series, both postseason and regular season, have been expanded as well.

CapnFatback November 2, 2010 at 2:51 pm

Plus double-headers are a thing of the past.

(Not including Blow Job Thursdays.)

twogoats November 2, 2010 at 3:07 pm

Bud is all hot to add another round (more mediocre, er .. Wild Card teams) AND extend division series to 7 games. Why cede Thanksgiving to the NFL?

elviouslyqueer November 2, 2010 at 12:35 pm

I call bullshit on this poll, since "Too Hungover to Care" and "Still High, So… Wait, What Was the Question Again?" were not offered as options.

betweenstations November 2, 2010 at 12:51 pm

Anyone who was awake for this poll isn't a real Giants fan, because they all partied all night and passed out at dawn. It's not even 10AM in San Francisco yet.

Obama is a nice guy who appreciates that you don't call everyone until after they eat their hangover breakfast and hit a few bloodies to make the throbbing go away.

MistaEko November 2, 2010 at 1:14 pm

Obama supports the San Francisco Giants, and in his heart wishes to see their achievement congratulated, but knows that as President the letter of the law states that the Washington Nationals are to be his team, and therefore he was obligated to order the Department of Justice to call up Tim Lincecum and tell him to fuck off.

India. Sachin Tendulkar was kicking some serious wicket.

biscuits101 November 2, 2010 at 1:54 pm

Poor West Coast Liberals! Obama is so mean to them, all the time!

johnnyzhivago November 2, 2010 at 2:23 pm

If he calls the Giants, isn't he then going to have to call the little people just to be fair?

Native_of_SL_UT November 2, 2010 at 2:28 pm

So what time did Sarah Twitter her congratulations?

Extemporanus November 2, 2010 at 2:29 pm

Don't worry, you guys — Barry called me by mistake, but I told him I'd head on over to the boys massage…er, locker room and pass along the congrats on his behalf.

If not for the fact that every single pair of pants I own seem to have disappeared sometime during last night's debauched revelry, I'd already be on my way.

Haha, just kidding! This is San Francisco, dude — we have no pants!

YAY GIANT HARRY PENUSES!!

CalamityJames November 2, 2010 at 4:48 pm

This may sound silly, but who cares? Like Halloween, I grew out of baseball around the same time I developed adult responsibilities. Just sayin'.

aious November 3, 2010 at 4:01 pm

It is funny because Republicans would LOVE their right-wing President giving the "FU" to a California liberal team
