Cards Snubbed By Obama? No Traditional White House Call Following Game 7 Win

ST. LOUIS (KMOX) -  Was President Barack Obama too busy watching the “Operation Repo” marathon or something else last Friday night?

When KMOX host Charlie Brennan asked now-retired St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa how the traditional call of congratulations from the White House went, La Russa suddenly realized that…it never happened.

“That’s a good point, I hadn’t really even thought about that,” replied a surprised-sounding La Russa, who can be forgiven for having a few other things on his mind over the past week.  “As we were getting into the World Series we had a call from the White House to make sure they had the correct number for my office.”

But as the wild, champagne-drenched celebration of the team’s 11th World Series title was going on in the locker room, that phone never rang.

“We never did get a call,” La Russa said.

And all this despite the fact that the First Lady, Michelle Obama, was in town for Game 1 of the World Series.

“Very impressive, too.” La Russa recalled of his meeting with the First Lady.

Obama didn’t immediately phone last year’s World Series champions, either. But the San Francisco Giants did hear from him eventually:


And the President also hosted the Giants at the White House this summer, where he congratulated them personally.

Whether or not President Obama picks up the phone, or invites him and his team to Washington, TLR doesn’t seem too worried about the apparent slip in postgame protocol.

He’s packing up his things and getting ready to “head west” for the next phase of his life.

La Russa will vacate his office at Busch Stadium as of Friday.

He’s contemplating his next step, which could be buying a minor league ballclub, writing his memoirs, or simply pursuing one of his passions…reading.

He’s currently checking out “The Affair” by Lee Child.

La Russa also said that if asked, he would come back to manage the National League squad during next summer’s All-Star Game, which he earned by guiding the Cardinals to the NL pennant.

    He would have called if they’d just won some soccer game.

  • Ron

    The reason is thy are not from Chicago. Why would winners want to see a loser

  • Fred Williams

    Did they really want a call from that az_whole? Sick of that POS!

    [...] President makes a phone call to the World Champions in some form or another, but as Tony LaRussa realized on KMOX, Obama never did [...]

  • Aaron

    Probably did not get the call because LaRussa and Puhols were Glenn Beck’s 8/28 in Washington DC last year.

  • Nate C

    The president’s things are Football and Basketball. I would have been honored if he hadn’t called. Then I would know that he thinks that I am an “enemy” to him.;)

  • Roger Judkins

    Told you there were no muslims on the Cards…

  • bikermailman

    I’m a Rangers fan, and this ticks me off. You guys earned it, and O’Bumbles fell short. Again. Oh, and Aaron, you could be right. He’s just that petty.

  • Ted

    La Russa “can be forgiven for having a few other things on his mind,” but the President can’t be?

  • AD Jones

    Nailed it.

  • jASON

    Someone should tell Obama that the Cardinals are from St. Louis, MO….NOT TEXAS!

  • Justin Brewer

    I agree Ted, as a life long conservative and Cardinal fan I found that statement to be a little over the top.

  • Richard

    Missouri is “fly-over country” for Obama and his ilk. We won’t see him until he wants our votes again.

  • hoser

    Could be because Missouri has the “BEST” imigration Laws in the country. Here are my two favorites: In Missouri , illegal immigrants do NOT have access to taxpayer benefits such as food stamps or health care through Missouri Health NET. and In 2009, a measure was passed that ensures Missouri ‘s public institutions of higher education do NOT award financial aid to individuals who are illegally in the United States .

  • nobamamama2012

    You’re right POTUS POS can’t do anything right. He’s proven that repeatedly.

  • Jerry

    St Louis is in mid-America; fly over country. Obama could care less.

  • Ralph

    Obama has no class; he is a petty, bitter thug. Way to go St. Louis! Congratulations! Next summer you can tell him you are to busy to go to the White House!!!

  • marty2749

    He didn’t call the Packers when they won the Super Bowl last year either…such a schmuck….well not until about 6 months later anyhow…

  • Travis Busbar

    I heard Obama tried to call but no one would pick up the phone. Go figure.

  • lovetron

    It’s the previous administration’s fault.

  • DEUS VULT

    To HELL with the fraud “resident” obama!

    The jerk has no class. He proves it over and over and over and over …

  • Anger White Man

    If it would have been a soccer game from Iraq he would have been there first hand. What a major jerk but when they move their goes the neighborhood!

  • Matt Power

    Well, one of Obama’s favorite players on the Oakland White Sox was Yogi Berra. So there’s that…

  • HiHeels

    commie ball or basketball , but then he has been snubbed by pro athletes not accepting wh invites and half of nascar snubbed his invite..
    He knows where he stands with the anti liberal pro Americans,
    i dont how his poll numbers are in the 40′s

  • NoWaysTarred

    …Maybe the teleprompter broke down again?

  • THE TRUTH

    Missouri’s laws might be the “Best,” but they are not enforced. Go to St Charles and several parts of the city, and you will find plenty.

  • abbey

    The Cardinals are snubbed? How about Jesus Christ? Now Obama, the goon, is REALLY snubbing him……and I think someday he just might regret it.

  • Sorely Frickey

    >He’s currently checking out “The Affair” by Lee Child.

    I knew there was some Jack Reacher in Tony!

  • Al Phresceaux

    Just another one of those things Americans understand that he does not.

  • nemisis

    “Schmuck” is most often used in American English as a pejorative or insult, meaning an obnoxious, contemptible person; one who is stupid, foolish, or detestable.

  • Obama

    The guy’s not black. I ain’t talking to him.

  • TheReal99Percent

    He would never cure cancer, he’s not that smart and would stifle the s*** out of business to the point where there would be no incentive to invent the cure anyway. Hey, by the way, isn’t there a police car you and your buddies are supposed to be out defecating on? What are you doing on a corporation built piece of technology writing comments on a website run by a corporation?

  • Private

    That’s because Obama is un-Amercan and he’s a traitor. The jack ass needs to be sent packiing now.

  • Joe

    Obama is just a phony American.

  • SS Agent Standing at the Door

    The presidents horseface looking wife announced during the 8th inning that she had just finished her period and the prez was then to busy to call La Russa in the lockeroom.

  • sharon

    I didn’t vote for the idiot. And he is an idiot….. Congratulations Cards! fantastic series!!

    If B. Hussein ever called me, I’d just hang up anyway. What’s the big deal?

  • Frankie Lorain

    F*ck obama anyway. He won’t win his next championship.

  • BigBounce

    Hey give the guy a break. He’s busy running all 59 states!

  • MHumen

    From a Rangers fan:Sorry Cardinal fans. Cards and Rangers played a great series. This fraud in the WH is too concerned with himself to care about. I hope all Cardinl fans remember and help vote him out. If you voted for him to prove you weren’t a racist, vote him out to prove you are ot stupid.

  • Il Bui

    Obumbler doesn’t even have enough IQ to use a teleprompter. No worries about him finding a cure for anything.

  • flackjacket5

    Contribute to his presidential campaign: get a call. Otherwise, the team will probably get a call from the IRS.

  • Cluster_Chuck

    La Russa doesn’t have a staff of hundreds to remind him of such things. DUH.

  • HughGKnutts

    Funny how Obama never seems to miss issuing a statement for a muslim holiday.

  • Steve

    Well, they DID do it without the government’s help.

  • Brian

    you are a typical lame liberal. Your messiah is perfect and you are blind. he is a joke…the world is laughing at him…and you uneducated libs.

  • VoteHimOut11/6/12

    Obama is un-American, anti-American. Why would he carry on with a great American tradition? In one year & two days we can vote this clown out of office.

  • the Spottedstone

    It’s tough, you know, trying to remember the names of all 57 states.

  • daniel

    @S.H.America
    Name ONE thing this prez has done right in the past 3.5 yrs. Just ONE, one policy that’s all I’m asking.

  • Chris

    Why would anyone want a phone call from Obama?????

  • Bif

    You suck ass

  • Steve .

    USA Today says he was at “Diwali Reception” (for Hindu festival of lights) after a “low-key day”. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/theoval/post/2011/10/obamas-day-briefings-and-a-diwali-reception/1

  • bif

    You don’t have a job, do you

  • the Spottedstone

    There he was last week, hob-knobbing around the G20 meeting in Cannes, shaking hands of his contemporaries, until he sees the PM of Turkey, who he embraces with open arms, hugging and whispering into his ear. Take a guess at what he was saying? “Yes Brother, do not worry. We will see to the destruction of all Catholics – including the Cardinals.”

  • freecheese

    He beez only interested in bassit – bow !

  • irishalaman

    He was too busy laughing with and hugging the Muslim PM of Turkkey to call
    the non-socialist lnon-liberal, proud of America Cardinals, until an appropriate time.
    Maybe during Ramadan….

  • Mike

    Yeah bif I do, in fact I own my own consulting business. I’m just tired of this turd in the WH. Okay bif

  • jim

    Remember, our president is a Chicago Machine politician first and foremost. If the Cardinals could get him elected, he’d call. But they can’t, so he won’t.

  • schatzi

    “Project Runway” is more his speed…but look for him on “Biggest Loser” next year.

  • John Best

    That’s because his favorite team while growing up was the White Sox (even though when asked he couldn’t name a single player) who played at KAMINSKI Park

  • Retired Ron

    The POTUS is required to prepare and present a State of the Union address, nothing in the rules about having to call a winning baseball team.

  • Magneto

    Baseball is not a Communist game and its not from Kenya. A white man dreamed it up. So why would this turd call?

  • John Best

    He’s probably too busy doing due diligence on solar his company investments.

  • Alabama Dave

    Ding Ding DIng- Spot on.

  • Obama sux

    Baseball is too white and republicanish for the left-wing ideologue president. Obama sux and why is the first lady at a baseball game anyway? Did she buy the tickets with her own money? Stupid question, I know.

  • linda copeland

    I was privleged to be in St.Louis on Friday when they won the series. Too bad that he didnt pay attention. St Louis doesnt realize that they have other sports teams, it is all the Cardinals.
    I rooted for Texas, but I cant disagree with the Cards. They deserved to win, and I am a proud Missourian who celebrates their 11th World Series win. Ok, I live in KC and used to root for the Athletics in the 1950′s and 60′s, I admit it.
    I like winners, and the Cards are winners.

  • John Sheridan

    He may never call. Too many White and not enough Black players. Shoot, even the manager was White……..and you expect Barry to call?

  • David Mac

    Hard to imagine that. He sent 3 condolence letters to a Gold Star mother I know. Imagine how she felt. Was it because he cared so much or he’s just in over his head? But heck they all had his name stamped on them.. So Tony don’t feel so bad.Maybe it is a blessing in disguise.

  • brett

    The real beauty of the situation is how illuminating it is: The “rockstar” image the liberal media built out of lies and misrepresentations to get Obama elected has crumbled into such insignificant pieces that LaRussa didn’t even realize he didn’t get a call from the President of the United States.

    Fire up the propaganda machine, CBS! You’ve got more work to do for 2012.

  • tommie

    Please tell me where you work if your so proud of your comment. Unless your a coward?

  • Jim from Boston

    This guy is a pathetic, clueless, clump of excrement. Three years on the job now and he still doesn’t have the slightest clue about how to “BE” president of the United States. He seems to genuinely hate traditional American culture.

    C’mon, a simple phone call? To the team that won a very exciting, 7-game World Series? America’s pastime? OK, Barry, baseball is too “American” for you, I get it. So, how many people work in your public relations office? 50? 100? 500? They couldn’t churn out a White House press release congratulating the Cardinals?

    Election day can’t come soon enough.

  • Carl Curmudgeon

    The DeWitts, John Mozeliak, and Tony La Russa are, in Obama’s words, “typical white person(s).”

    I wouldn’t sit next to your phone waiting for a call, Tony.

  • commenter

    It’s Obama and his administration’s either lack of respect or ignorance of such simple traditional gestures that make him look even less endearing. He can’t win on any fronts, he’s been a horrible domestic leader, his foreign policy is a contradiction, his policies pushed through a Democratic Congress have crippled the economy, and now this inability to make an effort for simple fluffy PR moves. The guy is simply a complete failure.

  • tommie

    Thank you for your kind grammar lesson Todd. I was involved in a near fatal car wreck a few years ago and suffered a traumatic brain injury. Sometimes I use the wrong word or misspells things. Speaking is much more difficult for me as people don’t understand and think I am stupid when it takes me a while to find the right word. Typing gives me time to go back and read things and catch most of my mistakes. Of course in this kind of setting I usually don’t have to worry so much and being made fun of like I do out in the world. So thank you for reminding me tonight how most of the world now sees me…..like a moron:(

  • teaisstronger

    A MUSLIM CANNOT CONGRATULATE A CHRISTIAN TEAM

    Maybe Obama thought the Cardinals are a White Catholic Church team. Cardinals?
    The Cardinals better change their name.

  • teaisstronger

    OBAMA IS CONVINCED THE CARDINAL TEAM IS A ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH TEAM WHO’S MASCOT IS A RED BIRD.

    Obama will place the Cardinal team on his Kill List.

    I hear that he’s very uncomfortable with an American team claiming to be champions of the whole world.

  • Harley2002

    40% 0f America are either government union types or welfare types. obummer will ALWAYS have 40% approval rating.

    Actually 45% pay no taxes so he is in the negative. That is why the Marxists want to legalize illegal aliens that would put them 50% of people on government assistance. Perfect voting majority.

  • Bill E. Bob

    Don’t feel bad Cards fans. He probably wouldn’t have called the Rangers had they won. This administration doesn’t seem to think too highly of Texas or Missouri.

  • Joe P. Fritzbocker

    He couldn’t call because his teleprompter was broken.

  • Manny

    Obama, like all modern liberals, despises success, especially when it comes without any government handouts. If you achieve something through your own hard work, and dedication, that sets a dangerous precedent. People might start getting ideas, and we can’t have that now can we?

  • Bill Chilton

    Just how un-American can you get?!?! 368 days and counting, Let’s see if he gets a call then……

    Straw man. SHA didn’t say the president can’t do anything wrong. SHA said he can’t do anything right according to the right. If he had made the call, you would be complaining about him having better things to do. Since he didn’t call, you have to complain about that.

    In my opinion, he has better things to do, and shouldn’t be bothered with silly things like this.

  • philly

    So, he makes one little mistake and you all get sooo upset. He was told to call the cardinals and he called the cardinals in Rome to congratulate them. It was a simple mistake that anyone could have made. What is wrong with you folks? He is giving all of us who don’t work everything that we want.

  • Jon Carry

    I would love to get a phone call from Barack Obama! It would be so much fun to watch it go straight into voice mail. Then, I could delete it without listening to it!

  • John Turner

    As a long time Cardinal fan we need a call from a White Sox/Cub fan loser because…….?

  • J W Majors Majors

    He just dissed God on refusing to have FDR Prayer at the WW2 Memorial. So Cards are in good Company. Can’t get lower than that.

  • TiminPhx

    And Obama has shown himself to be a petty individual that way. He’s also against almost every American tradition and his ego is such that he thinks everything is about him.

  • J.Cog

    Now that,s just mean . Do you think Chicago fans would say that to Cards fans ?

  • Joshua

    Who cares if he doesnt call? He is just a loser anyway! Who wants to hear from him anyway? At this point the not even the country wants a call frm Obama since that means the further destruction of America….Cardinal fans, count yourselves lucky.

  • millie

    Not a smart move for the man who wears mom jeans…..but I suppose he has all those St. Louis votes in the bag either way.

  • kimdi01

    How many Cardinal players and management contributed to King Barry’s 2012 campaign? Probably not enough to even get a phone call! A few dollars more and they could have been bailed out of all their expenses like Solyndra and the Finnish car maker.

  • MoCal

    After attaining such a high level of accomplishment, and winning the World Series, the Cardinals didn’t want to stoop the depths of meeting Barry Soetoro, who could blame them…

  • mjk

  • mjk

    I actually am surprised. After all, the Obama administration should appreciate a city with high crime rates and low IQ’s. Those are his constituents.

  • Ted Williams

    The tradition is pretty dumb anyway and I don’t even like the Prez.

  • Lou Ann Watson

    “That’s a good point, I hadn’t really even thought about that,” replied a surprised-sounding La Russa …. obviously he doesn’t care whether the self centered commander in thief called at all…although he has class and won’t say that

  • John L Jordan

    Ask Obama how many feet between the bases in a Major League park and he’d guess wrong. Ask Obama how many men make up a regular season Major League roster and he’d guess wrong. Ask Obama the name of the General Manager responsibile for bringing Jackie Robinson to the Bigs and Obama would have no idea. Obama knows nothing about nothing…and that includes everything. Obama is the emptiest of all Empty Suits.

  • Pete

    What does the “Anointed One” have against the Cardinals? Are they all Tea Party members?

  • Kent

    I’d bet it’s not a snub of the Cards, it’s yet another example that even three years into the term the staff remains inept. This blunder is brought to you by the same people that scheduled the State of the Union address without even bothering to ask the Speaker about the schedule of the House. Right now the White House is filled with clowns and Bozo is in charge.

  • Silence Dogood

    If he calls, the right will be mad he’s wasting time on sports and not fixing the economy. If he doesn’t call, they are mad for breaking protocol. Morons.

  • trey

    The less I see that POS the better.

  • Dan

    Maybe he something more important to do… Like pretty much anything else than calling up a baseball manager.

  • Bob Sanders

    SHA put up the straw man. No one would complain about the President calling the winner of the World Series. That’s what Presidents traditionally do. Quit making up things that the “Right Wing” will complain about. We complain about legitimate things like hanging out on MArtha’s Vineyard while most Americans can’t afford to go to the movies.

  • jeff b

    Even if invited, they should stay away from Obama. He’s too full of himself.

  • Richard_Iowa

    Typical for someone who engages in cultural and class warfare. $10 bucks says that someone high up in the Cardinals organization is a known Republican.

  • capoprimo

    Obviously a remark made by misinformed, ignorant Progressie/ Liberal, wake up and smell the coffee and get out of La La Land!

  • Dan

    Looks like my Cardinals caught a break! The Stanlinist in Chief was to busy planning to RUIN America even more to call. Very nice.

  • Mike

    Another reason to believe Obam@ is not an American Citizen……………

  • Jay

    He’s so busy being ” clever” telling the leaders at the summit that he has to get American’s jobs…….They couldn’t care less and he thinks he’s setting the stage for his re-election….by saying it’s not about his re-election…..lol! He’s so clever! He cares so much about jobs in America, that’s why he’s not even in the US……
    say goodbye to this clown……oh, by the way….he owns the occupy wall st mess…..

    As for Obama…

    Pardon me, folks, but I must leave you now to take one.

  • Clearhead

    mr. obama would never associate himself with anything named “CARDINALS” That sounds WAY too much like a Christian word. Change the team’s name to “RADICALS” and if you win next year, he’ll have one of his czars contact you.

  • Gerry

  • norbert g. ginsel

    Simple reason: It was the world series. Now if it had been the NBA playoffs, it would have been a different story. The man-child is who he is…. a Chicago “player” wannabe playing President, and failing to rise to the nation’s need.

    And yes, I said “nation’s” need as opposed the desires of his leftist and hoodlum constituency. Any bets as to whether he will, directly or by proxy, meet with the organizers of OSW?

  • sylvie

    Yet another prime example how UN-AMERICAN Obama really is. He backs Arab Spring. His only objective right now is to re-arrange the middle east for his handlers. So obvious. But why so obvious? Because Americans have lost their spine, the scorpions have liquified their spines and are sucking them right out of Americans. Keep playing your video games, and getting that latest cellphone and other cute little toys. They cost you, but when you go to the supermarket, just look at that bread, milk, veggies and meat as cute expensive little toys, because they are going to cost the same! Same goes for the gas you will need to get to work to pay for all it, and don’t forget you have to pay enormous amounts to keep yourself from freezing this summer. Good luck with all that, and thank Obama and his cronies for all it. They prepared your plate for you, so eat your peas!

  • Michael Brittain

    All you have to do is remember that William DeWitt jr served on the Foreign Relations Advisory Board under GWB and his spouse served on the National Council of the Arts under the same administration.

    He didn’t forget, just realized that they wouldn’t vote for him for give a hefty campaign contribution.

  • Mike

    Afraid this time, the man has a good excuse. The World Series conflicted with the annual “Camel Crusade Caravan” race… and this year was named the Memorial Osama Obama Bash… So, Biden was suppose to make the call. HE called the Arizona Cardinals.

  • GL Lee

    They really not. They cannot be. Considering that liberals make up about 20% of voting aged people it’s impossible.

  • Miss Biddles

    Not surprised. Obama seems to forget the traditions in this country that make us unique and special. How long does it take to make a phone call to say “congratulations”? November 2012 cannot come soon enough. We must get this empty suit out of the White House!

    Barry is from Chicago, nobody from Chicago would ever congratulate the St Louis Cardinals for anything. As a Cubs fan, there is nothing worse than seeing the stinking Cardinals win any game, much less a Series. I hope he never calls and forgets to invite them ti the White House… I might even think about voting for him if he pulled a complete snub…. ahhh, no, I guess I can’t do tthat… but i would at least agree with him on something.

  • Amsterdam Wiley

    Obviously there are trolls on here who are trying to make it look like everyone
    against Obama is a racist. Not true. Baseball is a traditionally pro-American
    past time, and Obama has not done anything that is pro-American. It is not
    surprising that he would also not participate in the call of congratulations
    either. I don’t like it. That doesn’t mean that I am a racist though!!

    Who cares? Besides I can never figure out why its called the ‘World Series’ when they only play against US teams.
    Right now I expect nothing from the empty suite and sorry excuse of a President. We have protesters all around the country that he and his administration are inciting/patronizing. When ever did we have a Pres. who does that? Normally a leader tries to quell these situations that are starting to get out of hand. He owns this mess now. A ‘Leader’ would go on national TV and explain to the protesters that this isn’t helping business nor the economy and to please go home. Our standard for a President is at an all time low!

  • Shauna

    Obama is so self centered.

    I think he is Europe right now, but I believe every other President would have made the call.

    He probably can’t do the math to figure out the time difference.

    Obama is math challenged that is why he brags about creating a couple of jobs at a million tax dollars a pop. We would do better if he just paid the money directly.

    Our economy can not recover until Obama has gone on to greener pastures. Don’t feel sorry for him, he doesn’t like the job much and the retirement benefits are the best in the world. He’ll do fine out of office.

  • Pat Ryan

    Of course he did not call. It did not matter you won, MO and TX are deep red states, he couldn’t care less.

  • Dafishman65

    Not suprised at all with the blow off. I think the Glenn Beck thing may be spot on.. And hey Texas fans, Card fan here. You guys have a lot to look forward to with a good young team. Awsome series!!! You all will have another shot in the future I’m sure if they can keep some of your young guys around and your manager is a class act. Really enjoyed this series, could of gone either way.

    Only a liberal elitist smuck would reply to someone who comments with his ideas by using a snide and insulting remark regarding his spelling, instead of replying to his ideas or opinions. Then again, that is the sign of the weak minded liberal whose only defense is to correct or insult someone who takes the time to converse with a board and who thinks (being so much more intelligent) that he is above trying to understand what the original poster is saying, instead of taking apart his way of saying it.

    Maybe he mistook the Cardinals for those high-ranking Catholic prelates, also referred to as Cardinals. We’ve all begun to realize that he’s not too bright. Given his hatred for Christianity, naturally he’d snub them.

  • Barry Levy

    Obozo, our clown in chief, makes another funny by inviting the 1985 Superbowl winners, but not the current World Series Winners, breaking with tradition.

    But in truth, why would anyone on the Cardinals want to meet this man, and what would they have in common.

    Maybe if they go to the white house, they can bring their checkbooks and start to pay their fair share, as they are the 1%, while Obozo, loves and respects the 99% that wants the Cardinals to pay their fair share.

    But in the spirit of being a clown, and being funny, he never tells anyone what a fair share is.
