President Barack Obama played basketball with some pals in Chicago today, his Election Day custom. Thanks to his running dribbling mate, NBA great Scotty Pippen, his team won by 20 points. The election will be much, much closer.
The president’s playmates:
Randy Brown, former NBA player
Arne Duncan, Secretary of Education
Alexi Giannoulias, former Illinois state treasurer and 2010 Senate candidate
Andy Katz, ESPN sportswriter
Reggie Love, Obama personal aide
Scottie Pippen, former NBA player
Mike Ramos, a childhood friend of the president
Marty Nesbitt, early Obama supporter and friend from Chicago
