For reasons that I better not get into, I actually attended the same high school as our current President. Some people who went there went on to become President, others of us went on to become bloggers. I know I made the right choice.

And yes, all the stories are true, Bush was indeed a male cheerleader in high school and sucked something fierce at sports and drank like an alcoholic Irishman.

Anyway, yesterday he got the chance to prove that maybe, just maybe, he had some game in front of a group of kids in Belfast. It didn't go so well. He passed the ball like you'd expect a former male cheerleader to pass the ball, and he went 0-4 from the field, including the two hideous bricks you see in the video above you. By the way, that second shot may look like he made it, but no. That thunk you hear is him drilling the backboard. Not included in the video, him getting rejected into the 10th row by a 8-year-old girl.

But hey, it's not all bad. He could still probably start over Rajon Rondo at point guard.

By the way, suddenly ballin' politicians are all the rage. Barack said he'd put a hoop in the White House if elected (which means he just clinched my vote) and he hooped it up with UNC a while back.

At this rate, I fully expect Kevin Garnett to be elected President in 2016.
