Barack Obama and the Tarheels

Not bad form Mr. almost President

“These guys move very fast” was what Barack Obama said after having a quick run with the Tarheels.

Obama, 6′2, “decided to open his day with the Tar Heels, including star Tyler Hansbrough, a 6-foot-9 All-American who spent part of his morning guarding Obama.

At one point, Obama slipped past Hansbrough for a layup, which rimmed out. Ever the realist, Obama recognized what had happened.

“Hansbrough went easy on me,” Obama said. “I thought I had it.”

Hansbrough later commented, “Who the hell is Barack Obama? I got practice today and a few cheerleaders waiting for me. Get this chucker out of my gym.”
