Before he gave a recent speech at DreamWorks Animation, Obama told a bunch of entertainment bigshots at a briefing: "At least I know what I want to do when I retire … host ESPN SportsCenter's Top 10 list." A person who was there tells the Hollywood Reporter, "Everyone had a good giggle." Wonkette is not impressed: "Thing is, Barack, for all your intensity on the White House sportsball court, you just don’t do 'casual' well at all," writes Doktor Zoom. Obama also recently revealed he and his family may make the rare choice to stay in Washington after his term ends, since daughter Sasha will be a sophomore in high school. So she "will have a big vote in where we are," he told ABC News last week, according to the AP. (More Barack Obama stories.) Report an error
