George W. Bush is the Best President Ever…

… at throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at baseball games. In light of opening day, I thought I’d point out that our president does do something well. The former owner of the Texas Rangers and current leader of the Free World (not the 313) has thrown out more ceremonial first pitches for major league games than any other president, and has looked more competent doing so than the other presidents. Hall of Famer Joe Morgan also mentioned that W is the best presidential ceremonial first pitch thrower ever, in between sentences of Joe Morgan inane banter. Take a look at some pictures of these guys:

If only he governed as well as he throws the first pitch. I’m not sure which is worse, his approval rating or his cricket skills:

And just for good measure, we can debate the relative skill with which W throws out the first pitch compared to this guy:

Opening Day should be a national 3 day weekend. Let’s go Mets!
