It shows the lengths some people will go just to play in a game with someone who plays in a game with Obama -- just to get the chance to maybe get an invite to play pickup hoops with the Commander in Chief.
Even if no information changes hands, a game with someone powerful gives the appearance of being inside. Even that kind of interaction is invaluable. It means that in your next business meeting, you can say, "Well, I was just playing ball with so-and-so …" You are one step closer to the center than the other people in the room. They have no idea that nothing important was discussed, so they must assume that it was.I could never work or live in DC.
You now have power.
