Obama Doesn’t Go All Out For Taylor’s Chest Bump

If I were meeting the President of the United States, I don’t know that I’d feel comfortable asking him for a chest bump. But I’m not ever-pumped Auburn assistant football coach Trooper Taylor.

After shaking President Obama’s hand at the White House yesterday, Taylor can be seen requesting a presidential chest bump. Obama obliged with what looks to be a rather half-hearted effort. Perhaps he knew that a full-on bump would result in the loss of every single Alabama fan’s vote in 2012.

Still, when it comes to personality, Taylor takes a backseat to no one. At least he didn’t make The Prez wave a towel.

Trooper is the man.

Trooper was a mediocre recruiter at Tennessee (great at getting UT "in" on top players but rarely closing the deal on high profile prospects), but somehow he's an unstoppable recruiting force now that the Board of Trust Mafia is filling brown paper sacks with money for him to hand out.
Do the math...

That's actually a brilliant argument, aside from the fact that you dreamed it up to make yourself feel better about the miserable state of UT sports. Other than that your logic is airtight.

Congrats on those NCAA sanctions though, buddy! "How bout dem Vols" indeed...

Taylor and Chizik are the classless country-come-to-town patriarchs of the AU "Family". ALL IN when the skys are fair, JUMP SHIP when the ncaa sets the hull aflame.

And your supporting evidence for that is...? Jealousy? Bitterness? Rock on DAWG!

Thank you John

Folks...

We deleted a comment here because we're not big on people saying a politician should be punched in the face. Obama, Palin, Clinton, Bush... it doesn't matter who we mention, we ask that you not post ugly nonsense about punching people here.

Many thanks,
John
