How many guys in this picture have game?

Best political line of the week comes from the bowling lobby. Paraphrased and quoted from The Wall Street Journal:
It would be "a sad, sad day" if President Barack Obama replaced the White House bowling alley with a basketball court, says Jim Sturm, president of the Bowling Proprietors' Association of America and owner of two bowling centers in Charleston, W.Va.

Said Sturm: "I think his political analysts ought to take a long look at removing [it]. It could have a long-term impact on his political prospects."
Guess which president had the bowling alley installed? Nixon, but Truman first.

Sad that this is covered. But then whenever Barrack does anything it is "newsworthy."

If the Dawgs had Arnie and Reggie Love on the team they may have a shot at getting back to the tourney.

Hey Keich since the man is our President now, you could at least spell his name right.

That's what editors are for -- only I don't have them now, so yeah, I will work on it.
