This video breaking down Barack Obama’s jump shot needs to become a template for something greater. First watch this wonderful clip and then we’ll dive in deep. Here’s everything you’ve ever wanted to know and more about Barry O’s jumper.

Great effort. Solid turns. Decent rotation. Ball coming off the middle finger. If he could just lock those damned elbows then maybe he’d be able to go out and play in the Rucker League in a couple of summers. Alas.

At least the trash talk game is on point.

What a great concept, right? Just parsing POTUS and his athletic endeavors. In fact, these videos should become a TV show called Parsing POTUS. Start them as a web series and then graduate to television – the Drunk History model.

We can start with Obama’s jumper, maybe even move on to his pitching abilities. Then we go to George W’s mechanics, Bill Clinton’s saxophone playing, George H.W.’s parachuting technique. Hit every single president’s golf swing. This is a guaranteed winner. Think we just came up with a new show for Fox Sports 1. If Katie Nolan can make it, why not us. Good talk, people. Good Sunday.
