Barack Obama, Your Golf Game Does Not Impress Me

Written by aeneas07 | Visited 1319 times, 42 so far today |

Commander of the free world my ass, just look at the golf swing of the man pegged with ensuring the safety of the United States for the next four years:

Free golf balls at the range? At what kind of white collar, bourgeois golf course is our supposed “middle-class”  president teeing up?

Outside of the hoity-toity links at which Barack has chosen to play, there is the issue of his swing. I appreciate that he stretched before beginning to practice (a streched nation is a prepared nation) but could we cut down on the lower body movement Barack.  Are we trying to do the soulja boi or hit a golf ball out here? You get the club all the way into the slot on your backswing and then have a seizure on the downswing.  How do you expect to compete with world leader like Kim Jong-Il on the golf course with a swing like that? This guy shot 38 under in the first round of golf of his career! If he is that good, he can have all the nukes we wants.

Potential international incidents aside, I have another question for Mr. President elect.  The shots below, as well as the video above, were taken during Barack’s Christmas visit to Hawaii.

Barack Obama, president-elect, golf

President-elect Barack Obama, golfing, hawaii

Is he wearing the same cargo khaki golf shorts in both pictures? Are you telling me Barack Obama, the next president of the United States, can’t afford more than one pair of khaki golf shorts? Take a trip to Old Navy pal, those exact same shorts are 2/$25 until January 9th. Again I refer to Mr. Jong-Il to make a point:

How can Barack even step on the same course with a guy that not only out plays him, but also outdresses him?

Of course, I kid Barack, but at the same time, step it up on the course, future leader of the free world.

All four readers of this site know that I envy and love people that can dance. Those feelings of love and envy turn into admiration for young children whose limbs already have more coordination than my limbs ever will.  Look at this little guy just embarrass the mascot:

Shockingly Football Players Score Much Worse on SATs than University Classmates..Much, Much Worse

Written by aeneas07 | Visited 1035 times, 25 so far today |

I wouldn’t shelve the finding below in the “Shocking Information,” file, but I would say that I am mildly surprised that athletes score so much worse on their SATs than their university peers.  With the help of a the Atlanta-Journal Constitution study, let’s take a look at the SAT scored for football players vs. the student population at large for BCS bowl teams and some other traditional football schools.

(For your reference: the “Rank of Student vs. Football SAT Gap” as ‘1′ indicates the biggest gap between football player and regular student body SAT scores among 54 schools surveyed. Also  Florida’s “50″ under “Rank of Football SAT,”  indicates that out of 54 teams surveyed, Florida’s average football player SAT score ranks 50th among the 54 teams surveyed)

After reading all the data, you have to be asking, “Why the hell should I care?”  You might care because your school’s academic standards are so much different than your competitors that your coach might not be able to recruit the same athlete that you competitors can.  You may care because your third coach in 10 years is about to be fired because your school can’t recruit the talent that it’s in-state neighbors can due to academic reasons.  You might also care because there must be a way for the NCAA to level the playing field in terms of admission standards (eliminate the “partial qualifier”) among BCS conference teams. It seems that Miles Brand and Co. have found a way to regulate absolutely everything else except admission standards.

ORRRRR…

You may not care at all because this week your favorite team just admitted a 6′3″ 250 pound junior college linebacker (that your team sent to JC after failing to qualify two years ago) that couldn’t qualify to play ball at the University of Phoenix. I honestly respect this point of view because if the NCAA doesn’t care that wildly under qualified high school seniors are being admitted to some of America’s best colleges, why should you?

After Years of Referee Abuse, The Zebras Strike Back

Written by aeneas07 | Visited 854 times, 24 so far today |

For years, referees have been treated as second class citizens by the vast majority of the sporting populace.  They are spat on, have dirt kicked all over their clean shoes, they face derision from the fans, coaches and media, not to mention they only time they are ever recognized in their job is when they screw something up or inadvertently hurt themselves.

Look at this cat, even fellow refs are giving refs a bad name:

If you haven’t noticed, the referees are flat out tired of being disrespected and they’ve begun to strike back this football season.  Here are the first salvos in what could prove to be an all-out war between the athlete and they few men and women that have
