“I was always the best athlete. Something that nobody knew about me. …I was the best baseball player in New York when I was young. … But I also knew that it was very limited, because in those days you couldn’t even make a lot of money playing baseball. … Everybody wanted me to be a baseball player. But I was good in other sports too. I was good in wresting, I was very good at football. I was always the best at sports.”

I believe in Donnie

I can't believe this is real.

 

[NullPointer]

I can't believe this is real.

The motto of the Trump year(s)

 

[mreddie]

Bush and Obama are the only ones who did first pitches right?

 

[dankir]

George W Bush owned the Rangers, he better be able to throw a damn pitch.Honestly, Drumpf is terrified of hte boos and fucking up. I would be as well. In any case, I'm not the President but he is, can he keep holding all these Ls?

 

[Surfinn]

I wanna see him throw the pitch, get booed, then in real time, on the mound, tweet about how Hillary paid them all off and storm off the field.

 

[pixelation]

lol, he would be lucky to throw it that far...

 

[Dude Abides]

Reagan did also.

Edit: actually apparently every President since Taft.

Thank you kind forum members! Will watch later for sure.

Sorry back on topic! Is Donnie Darko the first president to not accept the pitch?

 

[Escape Goat]

Mariah throws better than Trump

 

[mreddie]

Reagan did also.

Jesus, but heaven forbid he miss a fucking golf game.

 

[Beer Monkey]

You think somebody who eats steak well done can throw a fucking baseball?

 

[norm9]

WHT would you turn it down? If you throw grwat, it's imoressive. If you fuck up, it's funny for the lighter side of the news segment. Supposed to be win win.

[jayu26]

Great! In this thread people are nostalgic for Bush and perving on Japanese chicks. See what you have done Trump? Wait, that second one ain't Trump's fault. Carry on...

 

[Schattenjäger]

Obama also declined the first year of his presidency

While I can't see Trump throwing that great of a pitch, I'm sure it won't be much worse than Obama's first pitch

That didnt really make the ball go any faster tho.

God forbid this psycho looking like a human being. I guess he can't destroy the myth of him being the best NY athlete.

I was about to mention this. It would have been extra embarrassing for Bush since he owned an MLB team prior to being President.

I see nothing wrong with that pitch, even backwards.

 

[Schattenjäger]

They should get 50 cent to do it

[Clydefrog]

Putin plays hockey. Cmon, Trump...

 

[Saya]

He won't do it, but he'll brag about that he was invited to do it. Sad fucking guy.

 

[Jeffolation]

He'd get winded walking to the mound.

Because he can't be mocked.

He's only put him self in situations where he can be made fun of if there's a dime in it. This is pro Bono so he's not going to make himself a spectacle.

 

[Amalthea]

He's bad at pitching anything.

This is a better cut with a slow mo right after.

she even does the Chun Li victory pose at the end lol ♥

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Iron Fist is embarrassing enough..can't blame him..

ayy

 

[Zen Aku]

Invite Michelle, that would even pisses him off more than Barrack.

 

[polyh3dron]

I think it is highly unlikely he is physically able to throw a first pitch, even from the position that most ceremonial first pitches are thrown from.

That's crazy talk, he's the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency!

 

[jackal27]

and he can't beat bush

The documentary on this pitch was amazing. I still remember it so clearly too.

 

[Minamu]

Wasn't it the owner's son who didn't want to extend the invite last week?

Imagine the spectacle if someone on accident struck the ball and it went straight to Trump's face :lol

 

[The Mule]

There was a documentary about it?!

[poppedcollar69]

Low energy!

Obama would never do it in Trump's place, but if they had some guy don a Trump mask, that could be some fun times. Like, get some 10 year old from the crowd and give him a Trump mask

In the best timeline, W was instead appointed Commissioner of Baseball and is beloved by all.

That fork in the road happened in 2000 when Jeb gave the election to his brother and here we are. Though, W fucked up the rangers, so shit is all just true detective season 2 bad. That pitch is still great.
