Verne seems like the kind of guy who isn't used to Obama being president yet..

He said Obama was going to do some commentary for the football game, and then said "we know you can do basketball" or something like that.

IIRC, I think he's done commentary for a CBS basketball game before.

Did they ask Obama who he liked for the Heisman?

That's not really close to being racist. It's well-known that obama is a huge basketball fan.

Not racist.

He may have done commentary in basketball for CBS before, not sure.

But at the least, c'mon it was pretty well known about him being on ESPN? or maybe CBS? filling out his bracket for the NCAA tourney.

Common knowledge basketball is his preferred sport and he's done commentary for it before.

How is that borderline racist? Some people try too hard.

Hey I was just saying what he said. I didn't really find it racist or even close either.

So, was the President being racist when he said that he had the body for basketball and not football? ;)
