    "The Hyatt event was billed as a "Welcome Home" reception, where Obama met the coach and quarterback of the Chicago Bears — Lovie Smith and Jay Cutler — as well as retired Chicago Bulls point guard, B.J. Armstrong, and Tracy McGrady of the Houston Rockets."

    Just imagine how long his rehab would take on national healthcare. He'd have another built-in excuse.

    Maybe Tmac will want to impress Obama who appreciated the Rockets hard effort and heart when all odds where against them. Obviously things lacking in Tmac's most recent repertoire.

    T-Mac: Hey Pres, can I ever regain my old form?

    Obama: Yes, you can. Wait... scratch that. No, you can't.

    You expect him to rehab 24 hours a day? Who would turn down the opportunity to meet the first black president?

    Speaking of that guy-- Obama has just proven Harrison absolutely wrong.

    Harrison said Obama only invited Steelers because they won the Super Bowl. Clearly, it's now been show Obama would be happy to meet loser atheletes, too. ;)
