Joe Flacco Responds To Barack Obama’s James Franco Mishap
By Mike Dyce
President Barack Obama accidentally called actor James Franco by the name “James Flacco,” and Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has chimed in.
President Barack Obama addressed the nation on Friday, and amongst the topics he addressed was Sony canceling the release of the movie “The Interview.” While discussing it Obama seemed to make a bit of a mistake when he referred to one of the stars, James Franco, as James Flacco.

We think it is safe to assume that Obama some how got James Franco confused with Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, and that brought about a lot of jokes about whether this James Flacco was elite or not. While Flacco might not have been in on that joke, or purposely chose to ignore it, he did get in on the joke tweeting about it jokingly.
Welcome to the family, brother. @JamesFrancoTV

The Ravens got in on the joke as well.
It's nice to know we're on your mind, @BarackObama. pic.twitter.com/zdVDJi1wQJ
