(From Bethlehem Shoals for The Baseline at The Sporting News Online)
The Real Baller-in-Chief: Jimmy Carter
Who says Obama was the first Basketball President? Please, enjoy the Hawks/Bullets action from the 1979 Finals. But mostly, fast forward to 6:25, where Jimmy Carter’s interviewed. He swears eternal loyalty to the Hawks, talks about his love of running some, and then taps Mo Udall, the other former pro baller to have a career in national politics, for some more detailed analysis.
I didn’t see Barack making any trips to the Finals. Just sayin’.
Editor’s Note: Props to Shoals for digging this up and selecting the appropriate spin.
