DeSantis and his boots, DuKakis in the tank, Kerry in the clean-room suit and Newsom fouling a 10 year old.

Oh and Romney had a hilarious one but I forgot.

Lol... a bad look.

Gavin Newsom playing basketball with a few 9-10 year old Chinese boys appears to take the game a little too seriously...

After spinning the ball on his finger and dribbling behind his back the Governor catches a charging foul after plowing through the little boy.

1. Really trying to equate all that to this? That's a reach, looks like an accident.

Good luck, though. Can't say you didn't try.

3. Damn... no sense of humor on a Monday night?

[Wingus Dingus]

4. I know what's up.

[WarGamer]

5. What's up?

7. Thanks for throwing in some token Repubs, tho.

[WarGamer]

8. Come on, it's OK to laugh!

[Wingus Dingus]

11. Some truly interesting linkage.

12. Do you remember Bachmann at the County Fair with the corn dog?

We have a long history of laughing at funny stuff (future) POTUS candidates do...

[Wingus Dingus]

14. I still don't laugh at the media tearing down our candidates

over the most meaningless and trivial shit. Our country and our world would have been in a much better place today had they not relentlessly mocked our guys over photo-ops and "gaffes". Really, you could have just posted the video, and I would have laughed over a clumsy moment--but you're choosing to compare Dems to...DeSantis and Michelle Bachmann. Yuck yuck, so funny.

2. He went full Bill Laimbeer on that kid.

[questionseverything]

6. The kids feet were set, foul on the tall dude

[IcyPeas]

9. Oopsie. Looks like Newsom's shoes got stuck on the surface and tripped him

[ProfessorGAC]

10. Funny Video

Gavin was so focused on the first kid, he never saw the 2nd one.
Probably hasn't played against some 3 feet shorter than him before!

13. Ha! Newsom pulled an ankle breaker on himself.

What worse is playing ball in street shoes.

Contact is sometimes unavoidable. Put some hi-tops on man, get some traction!

[SKKY]

15. Newsom all like, "Man, F this 'lil kid. He know how I do!"

This makes me wish he would run while he can still do stuff like this. But for the record, there's no league in the world where that's a charge.

[WarGamer]

16. He's my Governor... I like him.

I'll support him 110% in 24... but I'm nervous about the "California Effect" in Rust Belt States.

17. Romney: binders of women and driving down the highway with dog in carrier on the roof

[dmr]

18. I didn't see anything wrong with this video.

Gavin's joining in on the fun ... nothing wrong with that.

Gavin knocks a cute little kid down. Then while laughing and hugging the kid, tells him, "I gotcha!"

All in good fun. I did NOT see the Governor take the game "... a little too seriously.", as was stated in the OP.

A man with good humor, playing a game with children, enjoying himself.
